A Contract Marriage With My Boss novel Chapter 137

Mr. Thomas was terminally ill, and his greatest wish was to see Charles well established professionally and personally, happily married and with a family before he passed away. He had been looking forward to the birth of his first grandchild. Knowing that Sarah was pregnant had given him hope. He had proudly told all his friends and acquaintances about the expected arrival of his grandson, but none of them knew that Sarah had suffered a miscarriage.

His hopes and dreams had vanished. How could his weak heart suffer so much pain?

When he first heard the news of Sarah's miscarriage, Mr. Thomas fell into a coma, and the doctors had to use every available means to bring him back, but even after he woke up, his mental state was just as worrisome as his physical as he was becoming less and less hopeful with every day that passed.

Sarah felt sorry for Mr. Thomas and was afraid to visit him. Not daring to go into his room, she only looked at him from the door while he was asleep. She was worried that he would be sad when seeing her, which could deteriorate his health even further.

What she didn't know was that Mr. Thomas wanted to see her and questioned why she kept avoiding him all these days. When Charles told Sarah about it, she felt nervous. Looking down to avoid looking into Charles's eyes, she clutched the sheet off her bed tightly with her fists.

“Are you sure he really wants to see me?” She asked after a long silence.

Seeing how distressed Sarah was, Charles held her shoulders to comfort and encourage her. Exhaling a massive sight, he said, “My dad… You know… He has always loved you and knows you, so…

"You should go see him. You can’t keep away from him forever…

"Besides……I don’t know how much longer he will be with us… he is very ill…"

“Stop!” Sarah suddenly interrupted him in a low voice, as if she was unwilling to hear the rest. She knew that Mr. Thomas was terminally ill, but she couldn't bear the thought of it and refused to listen to those words spoken out loud.

Charles remained silent for a while, then continued to encourage her to go see him. “Go and talk to him; he really wants to talk to you.”

Sarah thought for a moment before she nodded in agreement, grasping the sheet with all her force out of nervousness.

Not until Charles took her hand to help her get up did she move. As they walked out of their room, the housekeeper came running towards them, yelling. “Something has happened, Mr. Thomas… Mr. Thomas, something is wrong with him!”

Sarah and Charles were shocked and asked in unison. “What’s the matter?”

The housekeeper replied anxiously, “I don’t know. Just now, he asked me to go upstairs and ask you to bring him to the hospital. Mrs. Thomas and Emma had already taken him to the hospital in a big hurry. Mrs. Thomas told me that you are to catch up with them quickly!”

Sarah looked at Charles. “Charles, what’s wrong with your dad? Hurry up! Hurry up! We have to go to the hospital right away!”
