Forced Marriage: CEO’s Sweet Little Wife - Chapter 134

“Sarah…” Her voice sounded so weak in Sarah’s ears, she immediately turned around, not leaving Selena’s room.

“Auntie, are you calling my name?” With sparkling eyes, she immediately approached Selena’s bed, bringing her head closer so that she could hear Selena’s voice more clearly. “How are you, are you, aunt, what about you?”

Like she was about to cry, Sarah was very worried about Selena.

Hearing Sarah’s attention made Selena’s lips smile, she tried to raise her hand to pat Sarah’s face.

Sarah immediately took Selena’s hand, gripping it tightly. “Auntie, do you want to eat something? You look weak and sick, I will care for you, I bought some porridge for you.”

She was a caring little girl, she seemed so painstaking and affectionate, she was used to serving her mother.

“Thanks, Sarah, but where is your father, does he know I’m here?” Selena asked.

Sarah tried to hold back the feeling that was bubbling in her chest, no one knew that Selena was here, in this infirmary, she was the first to know, even her mother didn’t know, then when her mother found out, she was even more scared.

—What will happen to Selena if Michele and the rich woman find out about Selena’s room?

Sarah bit her lip, shook her head, trying to erase the question mark on Selena’s face. “Auntie, I’m going to call dad, you have to lie down, okay, I’ll be right back!” Sarah lied. She deliberately lied to calm Selena’s anxiety.

Just as Sarah was about to leave Selena, Selena’s soft call stopped her footsteps.

“Sarah, I’ve given birth, I have a baby right now, but… I still love and care for you as before, so, starting today… would you like to call me, mom?” Selena asked.

Sarah didn’t answer, she didn’t even look at Selena’s face, which was staring at her with hopeful eyes.

Sarah nodded her head, she was moved to hear Selena’s voice asking to call mom.

—mom, isn’t that a short word but full of deep meaning.

“Aunt!” Sarah turned around and covered her mouth with her hand. “I mean, mom..” her face was red, she felt embarrassed.

Her hands were playing with each other on the hem of the blouse. “Selena… mom, mother.” She repeated those words as if she couldn’t believe the sight of Selena’s warm smile.

“I can’t wake up yet, the doctor said not to lift my head until eight hours later, but I want to hug and kiss you.”

Sarah’s tears melted hearing Selena’s words, those words made her heart and eyelids warm, very warm, and wonderful.

She would remember how Selena made it so meaningful.

“I’ll be right back bringing dad to you!” Sarah promised with a big smile, she wiped her tears with the back of her hand.

“Wait for me, mom…” She ran out of Selena’s room feeling warm and lovely.

The feeling that was left in the depths of her heart.

Feelings that can never be separated and replaced.

“Are you sure you have checked on her?” Mei asked Michele while enjoying a pedicure treatment on her toes, she saw her fingernails that had been beautifully decorated by a nail art artist that she ordered direct from the city.

“Yes have madam, I’ve checked and peeked behind her bedroom door, she’s awake,” Michele reported with a face trying to calm even though her heart was racing at the moment.

It seemed that the problems she was doing did not end, all of this happened because of her carelessness and impatience.

At first, she visited this island to settle her suspicions about Jonathan’s changing attitude.

Her husband was a gloomy man and had no passion for life, but the world changed everything, after she– Michelle, lost her job for embezzling company funds, she was fired, became unemployed, and had to accept the profession of as a wife and a household.

She has to take her daughter to school and it was boring, she has to wait for a transfer to come in from Jonathan she can hang out at the cafe with her friends– and some of her friends stay away because of a bad case she did at work, luckily she didn’t go to jail because Jonathan wanted to bear and considerable penalties.

She also has to be more patient to buy branded clothes, bags, shoes that she usually buys every time there is a new product launch, and all of that makes her frustrated, especially seeing the faces of Sarah and Jonathan, makes her a hundred times frustrated.

She was even more stressed seeing the happy shades on Jonathan and Sarah’s faces.

Every time Jonathan came home he would give their daughter a kiss and a warm hug but she could only fold her arms across the chest, watching the backs of the daughter and father who missed each other.

She could only eavesdrop while pretending to enjoy the boring television show when Jonathan and Sarah shared stories of what happened yesterday, two days ago, a week ago even a month ago, and there are many stories repeated, listening to all of it makes her irritated and envious.

the resort project that Jonathan worked on seemed to be running smoothly and successfully, even Mr. Broto gave other projects to him, Jonathan proudly displayed the award certificate obtained from the company while Michele could only bite her nails seeing all his successes.

“Dad, when are you taking me to the resort, I want to swim, I want to bask in the hot sun, I want to see the little crabs running around when I step on the sand. It’s so beautiful and fun!” Sarah looks very enthusiastic and impatient.

“You want to visit where dad works again?” Yes, it was not the first time Sarah whined to come to her father’s work location.

Michelle could hear all that, she also had time to see her daughter’s cell phone which had many photos while on vacation at the resort, Sarah’s face was very cheerful even though her skin was red from sunburn

“Was it really fun there?” Michelle didn’t think that when she opened her mouth and joined into chats, her husband and daughter were so dumbfounded, that the two people in front of her were dumbfounded with their mouths opened, is it illegal for her to join in the conversation?

“Why?” Michelle asked with a cynical face.
