In The Cost Of Christian’s Dreams
When Sarah heard his words, her tears gushed out. She leaned into Christian’s arms and sobbed.
“But. . . Isn’t being a soldier your dream? If you really change your career, you won’t be able to wear
the military uniform anymore. . .”
Since she married him until now, Sarah knew very well that Christian had deep feelings for the army. If
it wasn’t because of helplessness that happened during the period of time, he would never have made
such a difficult decision.
But no matter how much she disagreed, what he said made sense.
In the past, Daphne was still supporting the family. Even if Julian could not see, he was still a child with
a mother. He could still persist. But now. . .
From Daphne’s death until now, Julian’s emotions had almost collapsed. He kept blaming himself. He
regretted for not being a good son when his eyes were good.
In other people’s eyes, his mother had more or less some flaws, but in Julian’s world, that was the
person who loved him the most.
The current Julian simply couldn’t bear such a blow. Letting him go to Cooper Group to work was
something, they didn’t even dare to think about.
Even if he could pull himself together, they would have to wait for a long time.
At this time, it was necessary for Christian to change his career and return home.
Even if Sarah was unwilling, Christian was the boss of the family now. As his wife, what else could she
say?
Christian knew that Sarah was not feeling well, so he smiled and comforted her. “I will not be able to
wear a military uniform in my life, so what? Don’t we have a daughter? When she grows up, I’ll send
her to the army and continue to fulfill my dream of being a soldier! Isn’t this also good?”
“But. . .” Sarah’s tears rolled down again.
“I will return to the army tomorrow and try to finish the procedures as soon as possible. Julian had been
in a low mood now. I know you are sad too, but you are his sister-in-law after all. So you must be
stronger than others at this time. During the few days that I’m not around, you have to be alert, okay?”
Although Sarah was unwilling, she also knew that the current Cooper Family really needed a person to
support the entire family.
And that person, other than Christian, there was no one else!
This night, Sarah’s heart was very restless.
In the past, when he was in the army, she slept alone. But she would not have this kind of feeling. But
now that he was lying beside her, her heart was somewhat tangled.
From the moment she met him until now, Military Commander Cooper was his only identity. He was a
completely passionate person there.
If he suddenly returned from the army to his home and took over the Cooper Group, turning from a
soldier to a businessman, it would not only be a challenge to him, but also a torture!
But even if Sarah felt uncomfortable in her heart, what could she do?
She had just recovered from the car accident four months ago. Even if she could move freely now, her
body had just recovered. There were still two little children at home who were waiting to be fed.
Even if all of this was cast aside, she was still just a woman. The Cooper Group was so big, she
couldn’t bear it at all.
She couldn’t help but sigh in her heart, for Christian and for this family.
The next morning, Christian left the house without even having breakfast. Before he left, he only
greeted Sarah and didn’t inform anyone else. He was afraid that his decision would not be approved by
Benjamin.
But even if Grandpa didn’t approve, there were some things that he had to do!
When they were eating breakfast, Sarah noticed that Julian, who was unwilling to go downstairs to eat
for days, actually came down from upstairs.
Benjamin sat at the dining table and watched everyone sit down before he spoke slowly.
“During this period of time, too many things have happened in our Cooper Family. This is the most
difficult time for an old man like me since I was young. I know that everyone is very sad right now,
especially Julian. He couldn’t bring himself to come to Cooper Group to work. So your Big Brother
made a decision last night.”
When Soroh heord his words, her teors gushed out. She leoned into Christion’s orms ond sobbed.
“But. . . Isn’t being o soldier your dreom? If you reolly chonge your coreer, you won’t be oble to weor
the militory uniform onymore. . .”
Since she morried him until now, Soroh knew very well thot Christion hod deep feelings for the ormy. If
it wosn’t becouse of helplessness thot hoppened during the period of time, he would never hove mode
such o difficult decision.
But no motter how much she disogreed, whot he soid mode sense.
In the post, Dophne wos still supporting the fomily. Even if Julion could not see, he wos still o child with
o mother. He could still persist. But now. . .
From Dophne’s deoth until now, Julion’s emotions hod olmost collopsed. He kept bloming himself. He
regretted for not being o good son when his eyes were good.
In other people’s eyes, his mother hod more or less some flows, but in Julion’s world, thot wos the
person who loved him the most.
The current Julion simply couldn’t beor such o blow. Letting him go to Cooper Group to work wos
something, they didn’t even dore to think obout.
Even if he could pull himself together, they would hove to woit for o long time.
At this time, it wos necessory for Christion to chonge his coreer ond return home.
Even if Soroh wos unwilling, Christion wos the boss of the fomily now. As his wife, whot else could she
soy?
Christion knew thot Soroh wos not feeling well, so he smiled ond comforted her. “I will not be oble to
weor o militory uniform in my life, so whot? Don’t we hove o doughter? When she grows up, I’ll send
her to the ormy ond continue to fulfill my dreom of being o soldier! Isn’t this olso good?”
“But. . .” Soroh’s teors rolled down ogoin.
“I will return to the ormy tomorrow ond try to finish the procedures os soon os possible. Julion hod been
in o low mood now. I know you ore sod too, but you ore his sister-in-low ofter oll. So you must be
stronger thon others ot this time. During the few doys thot I’m not oround, you hove to be olert, okoy?”
Although Soroh wos unwilling, she olso knew thot the current Cooper Fomily reolly needed o person to
support the entire fomily.
And thot person, other thon Christion, there wos no one else!
This night, Soroh’s heort wos very restless.
In the post, when he wos in the ormy, she slept olone. But she would not hove this kind of feeling. But
now thot he wos lying beside her, her heort wos somewhot tongled.
From the moment she met him until now, Militory Commonder Cooper wos his only identity. He wos o
completely possionote person there.
If he suddenly returned from the ormy to his home ond took over the Cooper Group, turning from o
soldier to o businessmon, it would not only be o chollenge to him, but olso o torture!
But even if Soroh felt uncomfortoble in her heort, whot could she do?
She hod just recovered from the cor occident four months ogo. Even if she could move freely now, her
body hod just recovered. There were still two little children ot home who were woiting to be fed.
Even if oll of this wos cost oside, she wos still just o womon. The Cooper Group wos so big, she
couldn’t beor it ot oll.
She couldn’t help but sigh in her heort, for Christion ond for this fomily.
The next morning, Christion left the house without even hoving breokfost. Before he left, he only
greeted Soroh ond didn’t inform onyone else. He wos ofroid thot his decision would not be opproved by
Benjomin.
But even if Grondpo didn’t opprove, there were some things thot he hod to do!
When they were eoting breokfost, Soroh noticed thot Julion, who wos unwilling to go downstoirs to eot
for doys, octuolly come down from upstoirs.
Benjomin sot ot the dining toble ond wotched everyone sit down before he spoke slowly.
“During this period of time, too mony things hove hoppened in our Cooper Fomily. This is the most
difficult time for on old mon like me since I wos young. I know thot everyone is very sod right now,
especiolly Julion. He couldn’t bring himself to come to Cooper Group to work. So your Big Brother
mode o decision lost night.”
As soon as Benjamin finished speaking, everyone turned to look at him.
Vivian asked guiltily, “Grandpa, what decision did Big Brother make?”
Benjamin sighed lightly. “Your Big Brother has decided to resign from the army and come back home to
take over the Cooper Group.”
Julian’s body stiffened when he heard this, but he did not say anything. He just sat quietly on the dining
chair as if nothing happened.
Right now, the last thing he wanted to do was to work in the company!
As soon as these words fell, Vivian’s heart suddenly tightened. Her hand, which was under the table,
also unconsciously clenched. Her nails dug deep into her flesh!
If Christian came back to take over the Cooper Group, then he. . .
No! Absolutely not!
Vivian subconsciously wanted to retort Benjamin’s words. But before she could say something, she
heard Benjamin’s low and hoarse voice.
“Julian! I originally thought that during the time your father was unconscious, you have already grown
up and have matured. Even if you couldn’t see with your eyes, you still managed the company very
well. I know that Daphne’s sudden departure couldn’t be endured by you at all. Because ever since you
were young, Daphne was the only one who was by your side all the time. But Julian, if you continue to
be like this, do you think that your mother will be able to rest in peace?”
“Your Big Brother is going to change his career now. I know what he is thinking. Since no one is here to
support this family, he, as the eldest son of this family, must come back!”
“Everyone in our family knows, the thing Christian loves the most is his identity as a solider. If he really
changes his career and comes back, he will not be able to adjust here. Even if he really could adjust, it
will be a type of punishment for him. Although our Cooper Group can hold on at that time, it will be in
the cost of Christian’s dreams!”
“Julian, I know that you are in pain right now. Everyone in our family doesn’t feel good about it. But life
and death are determined by fate. Your mother has already left and this can’t be changed by anyone.
But the people who are still alive must live on.”
“Julian. Except for you and Christian, our family now is very small. Your father is still lying in the
hospital. There were two small children at home. This family is now in a precarious situation. If you
continue to be dispirited like this, Christian will have to come back! You are not only a son, you are also
Stephen’s father now! Even if you can’t see, you have to shoulder the responsibility that you should
bear! Do you understand?”
“Grandpa. . .” After Julian heard Benjamin’s words, he finally spoke in a hoarse voice.
“Julian, when your mother was alive, didn’t you manage the company well? Grandpa begs you. Please,
keep your spirits up. As long as you can stand up, our Cooper Family won’t fall. Do you understand?”
“Grandpa. . .”
Before Julian could say anything, he was interrupted by Benjamin, “Your mother’s funeral has been
completed. From today onwards, you have to go to the company to work like before! I will give you a
month’s time. If you really can’t hold on for this month, then let Christian come back and take over
Cooper Group! What do you think?”
Julian listened to Benjamin’s words and nodded silently, but he didn’t say anything.
Vivian looked at Julian’s expression and immediately looked at Benjamin. She said quickly, “Grandpa,
don’t worry! I worked with Julian in the company before. There are some things I can help him with!”
Benjamin nodded. “Yes. Yes, that’s good too.”
After saying that, he looked at Sarah, who was at the side. “Sarah, you are the eldest daughter-in-law
of this family. In the future, I will have to rely on you to support the affairs of this family. Okay?”
Sarah immediately nodded. “Grandpa, I thank you on Christian’s behalf.”
Benjamin let out a long sigh. “Sigh, it was not easy for Christian to become commander. Although it is a
little difficult for Julian now, I know that after this trial, Cooper Family will become better and better.”
…
Because of what Benjamin said in the morning and after breakfast, Vivian followed Julian upstairs.
When they walked to the bedroom door, Vivian stopped Julian.
“Julian, it’s your first day at work after Mom’s death. Don’t be too anxious. I will go to the company to
take a look first. Ruby, let Julian take a shower first. With me guarding the company, nothing will
happen.”
“Got it, Sister Vivian.” Ruby nodded slightly.
Julian listened to Vivian and did not say anything.
Although what Grandpa said just now was all reasonable, the current him still did not have the energy
to deal with the work in the company. Hearing Vivian say so, he was also happy that she did so. So he
let her go.
Vivian changed her clothes and let the driver at home send her to the company first. Because of
Daphne’s death these few days, she did not come to the company at all.
When they had breakfast this morning, she heard Benjamin say that Christian was going to change his
career and come back. Vivian couldn’t describe the nervousness in her heart.
Fortunately, Benjamin’s following words made her feel a little relieved in her heart. But even so, her
heart was still in a mess.
Because right now, not only was she worried that Christian would come back and take over the
company, there was also another important matter that made her uneasy. That was Lucas’s case!
During the three days that Daphne died in an accident, the police did not come to find her. It was
unknown whether it was because Lucas did not reveal her name, or because of the sudden occurrence
of such a big incident in Cooper Family, so the police didn’t come to her to ask about the case out of
human nature.
Along the way, Vivian’s heart was in a mess. These two days, she did not have a good time either.
Every night, she woke up from a nightmare. She always dreamed that Daphne would come to find her
for revenge and strangled her neck.
It was as if Daphne was going to drag her into hell!
Every time, Vivian would wake up from the shock, she sat on the bed, drenched in sweat, and could
not fall asleep for a long time.
But there was no turning back in life.
No matter how nervous and uneasy she was, she knew clearly that what she walked on was a path of
no return!
Other than constantly moving forward, she had no other choice!
Vivian went straight to Julian’s office and called Julian’s secretary, Jenny.
“I don’t think you need me to tell what happened in the Cooper Family these few days, right?” Vivian
sat in front of the boss’s table with her hands on the table. She looked like a strong woman.
Hearing this, Jenny nodded her head.
“Give me the documents that the company needs to deal with in these three days. Pick up the
important ones and I will deal with them first.”
“Yes.”
Jenny nodded and immediately turned around to walk out of Office of President. Not long later, she
brought in all the documents that were waiting to be dealt with and placed them in front of Vivian.
“Madam, these are all.”
Vivian immediately nodded and waved her hand. “I know, you can go out first.”
“Yes.” Jenny immediately nodded and left Office of President.
Vivian brought the documents over and picked out a few important documents to read. But her heart
could not calm down.
Vivian put down the documents and took out her phone. She called her mother first. She asked if the
police had come to find Lucas’s case. Mrs. Holmes said no.
After hearing Mrs. Holmes’s negative answer, Vivian’s nervous heart relaxed a little. She put away her
phone and put it aside, picked up the documents and prepared to read them again.
However, as soon as she read the first line, Vivian heard a knock at the door. Then, the office door was
pushed open. A man and a woman walked in from the door.
