A Contract Marriage With My Boss novel Chapter 132

On Sunday, Charles announced to everyone that he wanted to take Sarah out as they were starting to feel bored from having been stuck at home for so long. Christina wasn't happy to hear them going out alone, but Mr. Thomas encouraged them to have a day off to enjoy themselves. Thus they went out for the day.

Once in the car, Charles said to Sarah. “I haven’t seen your smile for a long time, are you in a better mood lately?”

Sarah covered her mouth with one hand and smiled, “I’m only pregnant, but suddenly everyone is treating me so well, which makes me feel a little embarrassed.”

“This is your first pregnancy, and in our family, it's the first grandchild, which makes it extra special and everyone is happy." Charles suddenly had a sad undertone in his voice when speaking of his father. "And my dad…you know… he has been waiting for this for a long time now, and finally his dream came true…” he sighed helplessly.

It was evident that Charles’s relationship with his father had improved and that they had become more found and less indifferent toward each other. Sarah knew that Charles wanted to have a child to help fulfill his father's dream. Although Mr. Thomas had ignored Charles in the past, he had tried hard to make up for it by supporting Charles's marriage, and Charles had stopped complaining so much about him.

However, they didn't have much time left to make up for the lost time given that Mr. Thomas’s condition was not stable, and although he was feeling better now, everyone knew that his days were numbered.

Thinking of this, Sarah also felt sad and lowered her head, “I’m sorry for your dad. If I had gotten pregnant earlier, he would be able to enjoy his grandchild by now.”

“Although he may not be able to see his grandchild, the fact that you are pregnant makes him happy and content. When he was younger, he dedicated himself completely to his business and never cared about his family; but now that he has become older, he became the loving father who cares about us. I really don’t know whether to hold on to my grudge or to respect him."

“Your dad treats you well now, and he has done many good things for you, including investing in your company.” Sarah reminded him.

Charles nodded. “I know, I’m not complaining about him now. It is useless to feel sad. Dad hopes that we will have a happy life, we need to behave well in his presence to not make him worry.”

Sarah nodded in agreement but felt so impulsive lately. She really shouldn’t argue with Charles or think about divorce anymore.

Charles stared silently in front of him with a melancholic expression, as if he was thinking about something. Finally, he said in a low voice, “I have been thinking a lot lately. I did so many things wrong. I shouldn’t trust my mom over you and neglect you! Sarah, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have let you be wronged.”

It had never occurred to Sarah that Charles would apologize to her. Stunned, she stared at him. Charles also looked at her with a sincere and honest expression, as if his words were coming from the bottom of his heart.
