Forced Marriage: CEO’s Sweet Little Wife - Chapter 161
POV Vira
once thought to cover my whole heart with revenge and hatred, the terrible reality that happened in the past was very suffocating for me, when I heard a series of stories from behind the hospital door, I couldn’t even push the door because I was too shocked to hear a nonsense story that happened to my mother in the past.
I tried to hate my husband, for me, he was a part of the crime even though he was still a child at that time, as well as the figure in front of me now, her name is Sarah, our introduction and meeting at the beginning was not pleasant.
her face is not the kind of face that is friendly and warm, she has a firm jaw with a sharp nose, and sharp eyes, her body is ideal, her shoulders are straight, she looks very professional as a catwalk model even though she only wears a black hoodie and shorts, the charm that she has naturally radiated, she had that gene.
If I want to be honest, I admit that I don’t like her, she is an arrogant and rude woman, she is also a woman who is a little crazy, I hate her, of course, but… I hate her more because she is my rival in front of Vino’s eyes, she has the charm of a mature woman, graceful and natural, while I still have an unstable soul, the proof is, when I see her smile, even though her smile looks stiff, my hatred fades.
“Mm, what are you going to talk to me about, I, I feel, you’re looking at me in another way.” She spoke nervously while playing with one hand that supported the shoulder on the side of her seat. She lined up a smile for a moment.
the image of our enmity flashed, how she threatened me, her hand that grabbed and once hurt me, then the image made me want to laugh, isn’t that too childish.
“I thought you wanted to chat with me,” I answered Sarah’s words with a relaxed face and calm body language, yes, I thought of balancing her this time, I wanted to be a mature woman, who looked elegant and dignified like Sarah.
Sarah fiddled with her tongue in her mouth, I could see the protrusion of her tongue, we were silent for a while until finally, Sarah nodded her head.
“Forgive me.” She said then.
The words that made me startle and frown, she realized her mistake, isn’t that amazing.
“Yeah,” I said curtly making us awkward again.
We don’t have a good relationship but one thing I want to know from Sarah.
“Sarah, do you like my mother?” The question finally slipped from my lips.
She lifted her head slightly so our eyes met, then she fixed her eyes on me before she nodded her head once again.
Then, the beautiful face fell to the floor, she lowered her head.
“I like Selena,” she whispered, I could barely hear her.
“At least you’re lucky to have met her,” I said then.
Yes, I also want to see what Selena looks like, it seems a lot of people fall in love with her.
Sarah raised her head again.
“No, you’re the lucky one,” she said back at me.
“You are lucky to be her daughter even though you can’t see her but I can see the figure of Selena in you.”
Sarah’s words took me by surprise. The look of disbelief from my eyes was met by Sarah, she smiled while brushing her messy hair.
“She has a cute little body, her face is also small and beautiful, she has a sincere and kind heart, even so, she is a great woman!” The compliment from Sarah’s lips made me blush. She praised my mother, not me, but why am I blushing?
“If you have a good mother, you will be a good child, even though environmental influences make you bad in the end you will return to your mother’s care, I believe in those words, and for me, you have a good and sincere mother, and I’m sure you’re like that too.” indirectly Sarah has praised me.
“Thank you.” I returned her words in a whisper. I can’t believe Sarah’s kind words.
“Mm, I’ve never received your kindness, I said nonsense just now.” I was surprised to hear the continuation of Sarah’s words.
Seeing my surprised face, Sarah laughed instead, she showed off her crisp laugh, and it made me fall in love with her cheerful face.
“Are you laughing?” I asked and stopped her from chuckling.
“I’m just kidding, why do you look so serious,” she teases me.
“I’m sorry to have been rude and mean to you, I like Selena and I’m sure I will like you, that is if you allow me to like you.” The look in her eyes was pleading and it made me nervous.
“Sarah, I want to review our relationship, a new relationship, after all, there is Jonathan between us, we must be more mature.” I can’t say all this to a woman ten years my senior.
“I’m ashamed of you, you look more mature and calm.” no, I am immature, let alone calm. Whenever my husband mentions your name, I am always nervous and scared, you manage to make me jealous.
“Vira, you can call me sis, if you don’t mind, I want to be your sister, I like Selena, I don’t want to have regrets, I hope you forgive me and can accept me as your sister.”
I took a deep breath, I have to think about all this first but I don’t have enough time. I’m going back to town with my husband and I’m not sure we can talk like this some other day.
“Sister…” I smiled while admitting that if she is a step-sister I admit, she is a beautiful sister, I can be proud of her, at least she won’t treat me badly like my cousin, Lisa.
“Oh, yes, there’s one more thing I wanted to ask you,” I remember one thing but this is a sensitive issue but it continues to tickle my heart to find out the truth, it’s just, I still have doubts.
Sarah brought her head closer, she was curious about the question I’m about to say, but I’m still hesitant to ask this, we just had a chat to have a new relationship but… ah, I’m curious!
“Sarah did…” I bit my lip, stopping my speech, should I ask Sarah this? This will bring down my pride as a woman but I want honesty from her.
“Yes?” Sarah looked impatient, she brought her head closer.
“Mmm.. yesterday, did Vino visit you?” Ah, I can’t ask if Vino was staying at your place, I’m a coward, even though my curiosity level has exceeded the limit.
“Yes, he disturbed our cheerful morning, he came early in the morning to our inn. did you two fight?” Sarah’s gaze was probing.
I choked on my spit, Sarah held out a glass of drink to me and I quickly finished almost half the drink.
“Are you okay?” Vino’s voice made me choke twice, he looked panicked and helped stroke my shoulder, he raised the glass and asked me to drink the rest of the drink, as a result, I finished a full glass of sour lemon juice.
I hope my stomach doesn’t hurt because I haven’t had breakfast.

“Why did you choke her, you want to kill her huh!” Vino’s voice sounded harsh to Sarah.
“What are you saying, speak the truth, how could I kill your wife in front of everyone, I could have chosen a more secret place so that the premeditated murder plan I devised, for my safe!” Sarah hissed angrily.
Andrew tried to calm Sarah down, he stroked Sarah’s shoulder as Vino did to his wife.
“Calm down, you can’t be angry and emotional, don’t mind what Vino has said.”
“What are you saying, how can I not be angry and emotional, the accusations he has said are unreasonable!” Sarah defended herself as she pushed Andrew’s hand off her shoulder.
“What are you doing, take your hands off me!” Sarah snapped.
Andrew complied with Sarah’s wishes, he remained silent with resignation.
“You, I know that you have a personal grudge against my wife, but can’t you solve the problem well, she has invited you to discuss it, you are very immature Sarah, I am disappointed in you!” Vino still accuses Sarah casually.
“Calm down…” Vira pleaded to try to get her voice choked out, her throat hurting.
Hearing the fierce debate between Sarah and her husband, she could resolve her curiosity. It seems that an affair relationship will not occur between her sister and her husband.
“How can I calm down honey, she always has sneaky tricks to hurt you, what if you get hurt, this time, I won’t let my guard down, Sarah, you have to get back to America soon.”
Hearing Vino’s threat made Sarah’s eyes widen.
“What do you say, who do you think you are? Why do you manage my life as it pleases, is it because of the money you spend on me? I’ll give it all back!” Sarah shouted in annoyance, her voice catching the attention of the entire cafe which was starting to get crowded.
“Andrew, you have to help me, tell him you’re going to make up for the money his family spent on me!” Sarah ruled.
“I?” Andrew looked stupid, he was taken aback by Sarah’s orders.
In the distance, Jonathan folded his arms across his chest, he whispered to Hazel. “What do you think?”
“What?” Hazel was confused, and Jonathan glanced scornfully.
