The Contract Marriage

Chapter 186

Time slipped by a little bit.

Christian chatted with his family for a while. Seeing that it was about time, he greeted his family. He also said that he wouldn’t be back for dinner tonight. Then, he left Villa of Cooper Family in his off-road vehicle.

After Christian left, Vivian wanted to say something to Lucas. However, as soon as she reached the middle of the second and third floor, she heard footsteps coming from downstairs.

Vivian looked down and saw Daphne had followed. She looked at mother-in-law’s figure and smiled. She lifted her foot and entered her bedroom without looking back.

The moment Vivian entered the room, she kicked off her shoes and directly sat on the bed. Just as she leaned against the headboard and sat down, she saw Daphne walk in with a smile and casually closed the door.

“Mom, what is the matter?” Vivian looked at her mother-in-law and asked.

“Ah, Mom is fine. I just want to ask about what you just said.”

“What is it?”

“When you came back just now, didn’t you say that you saw a person who knew how to read faces? She said that you are definitely carrying a son?” Although Vivian was just casually saying it downstairs, Daphne remembered it in her heart.

“Yes! She said that I am definitely carrying a son.” Vivian could not help but laugh as she spoke.

“I don’t know how to read it either. But Vivian, I know the doctors in Municipal Hospital. After a while, she should be able to tell the gender. When the time comes, I will arrange the people inside and let’s

go for an examination. How is it?”

What Daphne wanted the most was actually a grandson.

“Mom, those people were just talking. What they said might not be accurate.” Seeing mother-in-law so concerned, Vivian’s vanity was once again greatly satisfied.

“What they say will definitely be accurate. Some people just look at this specially. You also think about it. Sarah is also pregnant this time. If you give birth to a daughter, and she gives birth to a son, at that time, the Cooper Group will definitely fall into Sarah’s hands. So this time, you must fight for your mother’s dignity, understand?”

Although Christian was the biological son of her husband, Daphne didn’t have any affection for Christian at all.

To her, her son, Julian’s child, was her true grandson.

As for the child Sarah gave birth to. . . No matter if it was a man or a woman, they were both born to fight over the property of the Cooper Family. So this time, for her, the one her daughter-in-law was carrying must be a grandson.

Vivian heard Daphne’s words and could not help but smile again, “Mom, he is already in my stomach now. I cannot decide if he is a male or a female. When you say this, I feel a lot of pressure.”

Daphne looked at Vivian reproachfully. “What pressure is there? Let me tell you, Vivian. You have to give birth to a boy this time.”

Vivian smiled and nodded, “Mom, I know. Don’t worry.” Seeing Daphne so eager to have a grandson, Vivian also looked forward to the child in her womb.

Daphne left very quickly and Vivian watched Daphne leave with her large eyes turning cold.

Son! She must have a son!

Only then could she take all the properties of Cooper Family in her hands!

When her son grew up, she would announce his background. . .

But after experiencing the miscarriage last time, she did not dare to go to the hospital for a check-up again. But thinking about the gender, it was better to confirm it earlier.

If she knew whether it was a daughter or a son in her womb. . . She could also prepare earlier.

Thinking of this, Vivian quickly got out of bed. She walked to the door, opened the door, and poked her head out to see that there was no one in the corridor. Then, she locked the door behind her.

She walked back to her bed and dialed Lucas’s number.

“My dear, you are about to become a Half Fairy!” Lucas couldn’t help but feel happy when he saw that it was Vivian.

“What do you mean?” Vivian asked and smiled.

“The creditor who owed me the last time called me again. He said that if I don’t pay off the money I owe him at noon tomorrow, he will find someone to teach me a lesson. Dear, you have to help me think of a way this time!” Lucas said anxiously.

Vivian frowned and immediately asked back anxiously, “How much is it this time?”

“Five hundred thousand!”

“Why is it so much? Wasn’t it still three hundred thousand last time?” Vivian asked in a depressed tone.

“Didn’t another month have passed? They said that the interest of 300,000 yuan per month was 100,000 yuan!”

“Even if it’s 100,000, it’s still 400,000 yuan! Why do you want 500,000 yuan from me?”

“Vivian, look at me. I’m only delivering goods to other people every day. I can’t make much money. I was thinking about how you would get the money from Julian this time. I’ll take the extra 100,000 to do a small business. This way, I can guarantee my future life. Don’t you think so?”

Vivian agreed and nodded her head. “Yes, if you really think that way, that’s not bad! But what kind of business do you want to do?”

With her pregnancy now, it was definitely not a problem to ask Julian for five hundred thousand yuan, but she was still worried that Lucas would take the money to do some wrong thing.

“I think even if I were to do business, the one who would come up with ideas would be you. You are the Lady Boss! How about this? You take the money from Julian first. Help me think about doing business. This way, we will have a way out in the future, right?”

“Sure! Then wait for my news.”

“Okay, my dear.” Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

…

After Christian left his villa, he returned to his mother-in-law’s house first.

When he walked into the living room, he saw that Sarah had already woken up. She was sitting on the sofa and chatting with Samantha. He immediately walked over with a smile and sat beside his wife.

“Did you sleep well?” Christian did not mind his mother-in-law sitting opposite him. He smiled and held his wife’s hand in his palm.

“Yes, it’s good. I found out that I’m getting more and more fond of sleeping recently.” Sarah saw him leaning against him with a coquettish smile.

“That must be because my son wants to sleep.” Christian smiled and gently scratched her little nose.

Sarah giggled when she heard him.

Samantha sat opposite of the two and looked at their intimate actions. Her heart was filled with indescribable joy. She looked at her son-in-law opposite and asked, “Christian, you just went back to the villa, right?”

“Yes, Mom. I went back to take a look. Everything is pretty good in the house.”

“I haven’t been home for a few days. Why didn’t you take me with you when you went back?”

No matter what, Cooper Family was her mother-in-law’s home. Sarah felt a little embarrassed when she heard Christian say that he went home.

“It’s fine. I will bring you back to take a look tomorrow.” Christian looked at his wife and smiled.

“Christian, how is your father? He should have recovered pretty well, right?” Every time her daughter returned home, Samantha would ask about Ethan’s health. She knew that Christian had just returned, so she could ask him about it.

“En, my father’s health is much better now. Now I think he is basically like a normal person.”

“That’s good.”

Christian sat on the sofa with his wife and mother-in-law for a while. Seeing that it was almost time, he told Samantha that he would not be coming back for dinner tonight.

Sarah knew that he was going to see David, so she did not stop him. When she sent him to the door of the living room, she walked out and looked at him.

“Don’t get too excited when talking to him. Don’t drink too much wine. Do you understand?”

Christian looked at the living room. He did not see Samantha. He then reached out and wrapped his arms around his wife’s waist. He lowered his head and kissed her cherry red lips. He lowered his voice and asked her with a smile, “Baby, are you worried about your husband or about your Mr. David?”

Sarah looked at him reproachfully and deliberately teased him with a smile. “I am not worried about you. I am worried about my baby’s father!”

Christian could not help but laugh. He lowered his head and kissed his wife again. Only then did he look at her and promise, “Don’t worry. You baby’s father knew what to do. Let’s go.”

After saying that, he let go of his wife’s waist, turned around, and quickly went downstairs.

Sarah watched his figure disappear in the corridor before turning around and returning to the living room.

When Christian’s car stopped in front of Savid Tower, it was almost six o’clock.

When Christian got off the car, he saw the BMW X5 parked not far away and subconsciously looked up in the direction of David’s office. He saw David standing by the window of the private room next to him.

David raised his arm and waved at him. When their eyes met, Christian looked at David and smiled. He lifted his foot and walked into Savid Tower.

This was not the first time the two men met. When Christian walked into the private room, he saw David waiting for him at the door.

“I’m not late, am I?” Christian looked at David and smiled. They walked to the dining table and sat down.

“I also came back not long ago!” David originally had a stomach full of resentment towards Christian, but after he received Sarah’s call and knowing that there was only a misunderstanding between them, his heart also relaxed.

Actually, when he decided to turn around, he never thought of interrupting their marriage again. But he never would have thought. . . Sarah would be hurt by Christian to such an extent.

The moment he saw Sarah in pain, his heart once again ached for her.

The two of them sat opposite each other, and it was David who spoke first. “Tell me what happened between the two of you!”

Although he was not in the place to interfere, since it involved Sarah’s happiness, he had to interfere.

Christian heard his words and smiled. “It was actually a misunderstanding. There is no reason for husband and wife not to fight, right?”

“Even if it’s a fight, there has to be a limit. Other families finished quarreling at noon and it would be settled at night, but Sarah cried for two days for you! Christian Cooper, look at how she looked when you came back.”

When Sarah’s matter was mentioned, David could not help but want to get angry.
