The Contract Marriage

Chapter 237

Vivian sat by the bed and listened quietly. After a while, she saw that her mother had disconnected. Vivian hurriedly looked at her mother, “Mom, how is it?”

“Yes, I agreed upon hearing it. She said that she could go to work tomorrow.”

“She didn’t complain about the salary being too low?”

“Aiya, a thousand dollars from their family is even more than the money the boss earns. My cousin immediately agreed when he heard that. He was even afraid that we would change our mind. Vivian, I told her to come to our house tomorrow to meet with you first. What do you think?”

“Sure. Then it’s decided. Oh right, Mom. Have you seen that girl? How does she look?”

“She’s quite pretty.”

“Don’t tell me she’s the most beautiful type?” Vivian was a little worried. Julian was a man who liked to flirt with people. She would not be at ease if he was too beautiful.

“No. She is just a little more beautiful than normal.”

“Alright. That’s good.”

Sarah fell asleep again not long after lunch. Christian sat next to his wife’s bed for the whole afternoon. He also made a few phone calls.

At around six o’clock in the afternoon, Samantha had yet to deliver food to them, when the door of the ward was pushed open.

Christian looked towards the door and saw Daphne. Behind him was the maid, Hannah. Hannah was carrying an Insulating Tube in her hand. Two people walked in, one in front and one behind.

“Aunt Daphne, you’re here?” Christian saw her and stood up. Just as he stood up, he saw his father walk in from behind. He called out, “Dad.”

Sarah immediately greeted the two elders, “Aunt Daphne, Dad.”

“Oh, quickly lie down. Don’t move. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Who do you think is so wicked? How did he knock our Sarah into this state?”

Daphne looked at Sarah and walked to her side and sat down. She looked at Sarah and asked, “Sarah, how do you feel now?”

Sarah smiled, “Much better. You don’t need to worry. I am fine now.”

“This is still considered fine? Look, I heard from your father that there were many stitches and fractures in your calf. The injury this time is so serious. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have let you bought the car.”

Sarah smiled awkwardly and did not say anything.

Ethan also walked to the other side and sat down. He looked at Sarah and asked slowly, “Sarah, you were unconscious for two days and scared all of us. But luckily the doctor said you were fine. I heard you woke up today. I wanted to come and see you immediately, but I received a call from Christian. He had returned and that you had woken up. In my heart, I can be considered to have let out a sigh of relief.”

“Yes. Sarah, don’t you know that your Dad has been so anxious these two days. The food was not delicious. He only ate a little bit for a meal. Aiyo, let me tell you, Sarah. I don’t think your father cared about me so much when I was sick. How could he treat you as his daughter-in-law? He clearly treats you as his daughter.” Daphne heard Ethan’s words and immediately echoed him.

Sarah smiled and looked at Ethan who was at the side. “Dad,

“Don’t worry. Dad is not a child. He will take care of himself. You should take good care of yourself at this time. You don’t have to worry about other things.”

“Yes, I know, Dad.”

Christian, who had been silent all this time, looked at his father and said slowly, “Dad, I only took three days off this time. I can’t stay here with Sarah all the time. My mother-in-law and I have already discussed it. When Sarah is discharged from the hospital, I will let her temporarily return to her mother’s home. Coincidentally, mother-in-law is only one person. Sarah can be considered to be accompanying her at home. Do you think there is any problem?”

Ethan nodded. He naturally did not mind this kind of thing. “Yes. This matter was settled. Sarah will return to her mother’s home. Your mother-in-law will also take care of her more carefully, but it is fine as long as your mother-in-law has other thoughts. . .”

After all, Sarah was the daughter-in-law of his family. Just by letting her go back to her mother’s home to rest, Ethan is afraid that Samantha will have other thoughts.

As soon as Ethan finished speaking, the door of the ward was pushed open again. Everyone looked towards the door and saw Samantha walking in with two Insulating Tubes.

Samantha happened to hear Ethan’s words and said with a smile, “Although your family has maids, no matter what, I am Sarah’s mother. It will definitely be easier for me to take care of her. How can I have other thoughts when taking care of my own daughter? Ethan, you are thinking too much.”

Daphne smiled and agreed. “Yes. We are all family, how can we think too much?”

“Don’t worry, we’re not that petty people. Nothing will happen.” Samantha’s words dispelled Ethan’s concerns with a smile.

“Then I will have to trouble you. . .”

“We are all family. What do you mean by hard work? also run around every two to three days.”

Ethan and Daphne sat in the ward for a while before leaving. When they left, Daphne left the Insulating Tube she brought with her. She said that there was a black chicken stewed inside for Sarah to eat.

After Ethan and Daphne left, Christian directly took the Insulating Tube that his mother-in-law brought over and took out food for his wife to eat.

“I want to eat black chicken. . .” Sarah heard that there was chicken in the Insulating Tube and looked at Christian with a little drool.

“Baby, let me tell you, from today onwards, other than the food Mom makes, you cannot eat any other food. Do you understand?”

“Why? Could it be that you are afraid that Aunt Daphne will put something inside?” Sarah stared at him with widened eyes and asked back.

Samantha immediately glared at her daughter, “What nonsense are you talking about?”

Christian heard his wife’s words and smiled, but he still answered very seriously, “You are not just an injured person now. You are also a pregnant woman. There are many things a pregnant woman should pay attention to when she eats. There are some things that cannot be eaten randomly. When I was in the army, I checked online. Even when cooking, there are octagonal ingredients in it. It will also have a negative impact on pregnant women’s milk. You are now at your most cautious period. And since so many things have happened, of course, you have to be more careful. Don’t you agree?”

Sarah blinked her eyes and looked at him. “How do you know so much?”

Samantha heard Christian words and smiled as she nodded her head. “Christian is right. He is worried that something will happen to you. He is scared, you know?”

“I understand. Okay, then I won’t eat anymore. Hubby, you eat.”

“In the future, tell mom what you want to eat, okay?” Christian shook the bed again as he spoke. He took the food over and fed it to her for dinner. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

“Okay, I got it.” Sarah nodded obediently.

Because she had called yesterday, Mrs. Holmes’s cousin rushed over early this morning. Of course, he had come with the girl who had just turned 20.

After some small talk, Mrs. Holmes’s cousin left, leaving his daughter in the Holmes family. Mrs. Holmes had already sent her husband away. So there were only three people left in the family.

Vivian sat on the sofa and looked at the girl in front of her, although she was dressed a little shabby. She looked very smart and her looks were quite good. Although there was no makeup on her face, that small face made her look very beautiful.

“You are called Ruby?” Vivian looked at the girl in front of her as she sized her up and asked her.

“Yes, I am Ruby.” Although the two families were relatives, when it came to Vivian’s seniority, they basically did not interact with each other. But when Vivian got married, Mrs. Holmes’s cousin had also come.

“How old are you this year?”

“Twenty-two years old.”

“Do you feel wronged when you follow me to the Cooper Family as a servant in the future?”

“I don’t feel wronged. My dad said that the Cooper Family is rich. What crime can’t they bear.” Ruby was a country girl and her words were very honest.

“Who do you listen to in the Cooper Family from now on?”

“I’ll listen to you, Sister Vivian.”

“Yes, you must remember this clearly. Don’t have any other thoughts, understand?” Vivian nodded her head in satisfaction.

“Sister, I will remember it.” Ruby immediately nodded her head sensibly.

“Usually, when you are in Cooper Family, your eyes should be more lively. If you hear anything that is bad for me, you must remember to tell me, okay?”

“Yes Sister, I understand.” Ruby nodded again.

Vivian saw that this lass was not bad and only then did she nod her head in satisfaction. She also reminded her of some details and felt that there were no loopholes.

She then held onto her waist and stood up from the sofa. She took Ruby with her and left her mother’s house.

Because she had called before, the driver of Cooper Family had been waiting downstairs for a long time. Vivian brought Ruby downstairs and when they got on the car, Ruby walked to the front of Vivian and opened the car door for her.

Vivian looked at her and smiled in satisfaction. Then she sat in the car. Ruby saw that Vivian had sat properly, so she closed the car door and went to the other side to sit beside Vivian. The car quickly

started and brought the two of them back to Villa of Cooper Family.

When the car reached home, it was already past ten o’clock in the morning. Ethan and Julian both went to the company. Only Benjamin and Daphne were left in the villa.

Vivian brought Ruby into the living room and walked to the four-ringed sofa in the living room to greet the two elders before sitting down on the sofa.

From the moment Ruby walked in, Daphne’s gaze had been on Ruby. Seeing that Vivian was sitting properly, she sized Ruby up and asked, “Vivian, where did this little girl come from?”

“Mom, she is the child of my uncle’s house. She is my cousin and now she has nothing to do at home. It just so happens that my body is becoming more and more inconvenient. I just want to find someone that I can order around freely. Ruby is idle at home. I brought her along. Ruby, this is the madam. Quickly come and greet Madam.”

Ruby immediately walked in front of Daphne and respectfully bowed. Then she said in a clear voice,” Hello Madam.”
