'All this was a conspiracy, ' Sara had been repeating this sentence in her heart. It was just a few years.
What kind of waves could be stirred up in Jacob's heart? Life was so long. A few years was just like a
blink of an eye.
The various reasons and excuses prepared for Jacob in her heart seemed ridiculous now. Sara finally
realized that she was just a piece in Jacob's hand. She only deserved to be placed on the right position
by Jacob so that he would be pleased. As for her, the chess pieces would not complain.
A trace of bitterness appeared in Sara's mouth. If Jacob deserved sympathy, then which one presented
didn't deserve?
When Michael looked up at Sara, he was already very tired. He hadn't said so much for a long time, but
he had to say it today. "Sara, come here."
Sara walked over and stood beside Jacob obediently.
Michael reached out his hand, which was held tightly by Sara. "Dad, what do you want to say? I'm
listening."
"Sara, I know the Shi clan owe you a lot. I always know that you are a good wife. If Jacob dares to bully
you again in the future, just tell your uncle. He will teach him for you. " After finishing his words, Michael
put Sara's hand in Jacob's.
Although she felt awkward, Sara knew that Michael did this for her good. Sara felt pain in her heart.
Jacob didn't love her. The truth wouldn't change even with Michael's coercion. Since nothing could be
changed, the illusion of love between them could only make them feel more uncomfortable.
No matter how beautiful the colorful bubbles were, they would burst sooner or later. Love was like a
balloon. It could go back to the beginning once it was punctured by a needle. Let alone the love
between them had never existed from the beginning.
Jacob tightened his grip on Sara's hand. He turned to Michael and said, "Dad, I know. I'll listen to you
and treat Sara well in the future."
Hearing this, Sara became even more disgusted with Jacob. He should cheat his father so sincerely.
Sara really wanted to tear apart Jacob's hypocritical face, but obviously Michael didn't want to see the
family farce when he was lying on the bed weakly. Sara could only think about it.
When you're really loved by someone, you don't need any words to prove the love. But when you didn't
get the love, you would ask him and try to confirm whether he loved you or not repeatedly. When you
asked that question, you already knew the answer. But you still don't want to give up.
That was how Sara was now. She had already known the answer. But she still didn't want to get rid of
all these. Love was like a quagmire. Unless people kept far away from each other, it was difficult to get
rid of.
Jacob's heart sank upon seen the defiant eyes of Sara Was she angry again? Jacob loosened his grip.
"Sara, come out with me. I have something to tell you." James's voice just interrupted the two people's
gaze.
In a panic, Sara stood up and said to Michael, "Dad, I'll go out then. Take care of yourself. "
Michael nodded with his eyes full of praise.
There were only the two of them left in the big room. The silent atmosphere filled the environment, as if
the room was empty.
Michael broke the silence, this time it was no longer about the love affairs, but a faint worry. "Jacob, I'm
worried about your future. I know you have too many enemies in your daily life. You could have avoided
the car accident last time, but it hasn't been found out the one who plotted it yet. If in the future... "
Michael paused. He knew how serious his illness was. "If I'm gone in the future, I guess some people in
the company will try to drive you out. At that time, your enemy will make trouble for you, and you will be
in a difficult situation." When Michael spoke, he felt headache, but if he didn't say it, there would be no
chance to say these words in the future.
Jacob swallowed and felt his throat sore. He tried his best not to say anything about that, but his father
thought of everything for him.
Jacob also lowered his head. His heart was heavy, and his voice was heavier, "Dad, now what I'm
worried about most is your health. Nothing else matters."
Michael was a little excited. "Jacob, you have to understand that I can't accompany you for the rest of
your life. I'm old and my health is not as good as before. In the past, I could run dozens of kilometers
with you effortlessly. Now I can't even breathe after two steps outside. "
Tears welled up in Jacob's eyes. He used to think that there was also enough time to be with his father,
but with the flying time, it turned out that everything was too late.
"Dad, why did your disease relapse all of a sudden? You were fine before, weren't you?" Jacob choked
with sobs. Holding his father's thin hand, Jacob really wanted to cry as he did when he was a child.
"I have arranged everything for you in the future. I have thought about everything I can think of, and I
have tried my best to arrange everything I can. In the future, no matter what happens, you have to bear
it alone." Michael gasped for breath. He had talked too much in one breath.
"Dad, are you really not going to the hospital to recuperate?" Tears streamed down Jacob's face.
Regardless of being a mature man, he only knew that he would always be a child in front of his father.
"The result is the same whether I go to the hospital or not. I just don't want to stay in the hospital and
wait for death in my last few days. Just take it as a vacation for my life. Anyway, everyone would die
someday. But I'm still worried about you. Is it really impossible for you and Sara to be together? " At
last, Michael put forward his second concern, Jacob's marriage.
"I will make up with her as soon as possible. Dad, you don't have to worry about me so much. It's all
my fault. I'm sorry that you still have to pay attention to my business at this time. " Jacob sobbed. In his
future life, whenever thinking of this conversation, he would still feel like to cry.
The trees may prefer calm but the wind will not subside, the children may want to support their parents
but their parents may unable to enjoy it.
"Jacob, to win a woman's heart, you need to give your own heart. I used to think you understand, but
later I found that you don't seem to understand. You only give orders to others. No woman can accept
such a husband. If your wife treat you like this, can you accept it? "
Jacob looked up at his father. He felt guilty as his relationship with Sara are still troubling his father at
the end of his life.
"Dad, I know. I will treat Sara well in the future. " Jacob looked determined. He had never been so clear
and sure about his heart like now.
Michael nodded. The two of them talked a lot more.
Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Sara idly rotated the hand warming doll in his hand. He didn't
know what Michael would say to Jacob, but she still resisted in her heart, You knew clearly in your
heart that you wanted to disappear in the sight of all these people, but you would still worry about how
lonely you would be if you was alone. Even if a falsehearted retain would help to find an excuse for you
to stay. You thought you can live a life as an ordinary couple who pretended to love each other if you
accept him.
Sara, stop lying to yourself. Sara's heart was much colder than the outside world.
The most pitiful thing about a woman was that even if he no longer loved her, she still couldn't accept
the fact. She was still addicted to his lies. Many women had been fearlessly entangled with men who
don't love them all their lives, regardless of how much they pay and how much they get. That was how
Sara used to be.
