A Contract Marriage With My Boss novel Chapter 76

Daniel hesitated for a little while, then answered. “Perhaps… it will affect your mood. Take a look!” He finally gave it to her.

Sarah took it quickly and swept her hand over the envelope as if that would reveal the secret. It was a plain envelope, with only a few blank lines for writing an address and zip code, but nothing was written on it. She opened it and touched something hard.

She frowned. “Photos?”

Daniel just nodded. It was a pile of photos, at least a hundred. Looking down, Sarah paused for a while and then went on.

Daniel was observing her every move and expression. In the beginning, she paused for a second, but then became more focused. Gradually, she began to frown, and her face turned pale. Finally, even her hands were shaking. It seemed that these photos scared her, and the images were making her feel sick.

Sarah kept silent until she finished looking through all the photos with trembling hands. These photos showed everything that had happened between Charles and Emma the other day.

They started with Emma going to Charles’s home, them chatting together happily, making food and eating, and then going shopping together. Charles was picking things for Emma and paying for all her things. Then they went to a riverside coffee shop for a drink, and finally, the pictures revealed their embrace and long intimate kiss at the hospital.

Sarah didn’t know that her husband, whom she had trusted completely, would do something like this secretly. She always knew that Charles used to have many girlfriends, but had thought that he had changed since he promised her before their marriage.

He had never broken his promise or said anything outrageous to her, and she had never found anything that had even slightly raised her suspicion. She had never expected that he still had a feeling for Emma in his heart, and went as far as kissing her.

He had promised her that he didn't love Emma as a woman anymore and that he only looked at her as his sister. Was he lying to her? Was Emma so charming that Charles would betray her like this over and over again?

She also didn’t expect that Emma, who looked kind and friendly, should hook up with her husband in secret. As the saying goes, it’s easy to know a man's face, but not their hearts.

Sarah felt sick to her stomach and felt like part of her heart was being ripped out of her chest. These pictures made her doubt that anything she knew was, in fact, real, or if she indeed had no one she could trust. She lifted her head and looked out the window, forcing herself to stay calm.
