The Contract Marriage

Chapter 328 Forget That He Had A Son

When it was time for dinner, Ethan asked the maids to take out the good wine that was stored at home. After the glasses were all filled up, Ethan raised his glass.

"Our family has been having a lot of good news lately. Today, Christian has been transferred back to City S. I have lived for more than half of my life. It feels like today is the happiest day of my life! I watched all of you grow up and be mature. As a father, I feel especially gratified in my heart!"

Julian also raised his wine glass. "Dad, don't worry. After a while, Ruby will give you another fat grandson. You will be even happier!"

Ethan smiled and nodded. He looked at his eldest son and said, "Christian, there is another good thing happened in our family. You must not know about it, right?"

Christian heard his father's words and looked at Sarah in confusion. “There is another good thing? Then I really don't know!"

Julian smiled and said, "Big Brother, let me tell you. Do you still remember Jasmine Wilson from the Wilson Group?"

Christian nodded. "Of course, I do. Does she have anything to do with our family's happy occasion?"

"Her father, Joseph Wilson, the chairman of Wilson Group, is Sister-in-law's, uncle! Does this count as a good news for our family?"

Christian heard his brother's words and immediately looked at Sarah beside him in surprise. "Sarah, is what Julian said true?"

Sarah smiled and nodded. "Yes! My mother is Grandma's biological daughter! She was lost when she was young. It has been decades. And they had lost the hope to find her again. The last time when I gave birth, Grandma knew about it and insisted on going to the hospital to see me. She happened to run into her mother that day. Grandma immediately felt that my mother was her daughter who went missing. But she was afraid of making a mistake, so at that time, she didn't dare to say it out loud. She just had Ms Jasmine secretly run a DNA test on her and my mother. I didn't expect the results to be that of mother and daughter!"

After Christian heard Sarah's explanation, he sighed and nodded. "This is indeed a joyous occasion! I didn't think that the Wilson Family would have such fate with our family!"

Ethan smiled and said, "Yes! I had a good relationship with Chairman Wilson before, but now with Sarah's relationship, our relationship has become even closer. "

Julian looked at his silent wife and smiled at his father. "Dad, you can't make Ruby wronged just because Sister-in-law have such a powerful family background."

Ethan smiled and glared at his son. "Stinking brat. Is your father the kind of person who forgets justice for profit?"

Old Master Cooper smiled and said, "That's right! Julian finally knew how to love his wife! Julian, don't worry. There is no difference between Sarah and Ruby. Before Sarah and Wilson Family acknowledged each other as relatives, didn't your father have the same attitude towards Sarah?"

"Grandpa, you are right. I said something wrong again. Dad, you are a man who does not care about petty people. Don't lower yourself to my level!" Julian smiled and looked at his father.

When Ethan heard Julian's words, he let out a sigh. He looked at the family and said, "In the past, when I see the harmonious family atmosphere in other people’s families, I feel that you can't buy that kind of feeling no matter how much money you spend. I didn't expect that now, our family finally has this kind of feeling. Seeing all of you become so sensible, I am gratified. It is a pity that Daphne isn't around anymore. At that time, I was in the hospital and could not even see her for the last time. Sigh. . . Let's not talk about it anymore. If she was in heaven, she would definitely be happy for us!"

Christian and Julian listened to Ethan and were silent. Old Master Cooper took over the conversation. "Ethan, although I am old, I have experienced so many things. Don't worry about what happened in the past. If Daphne knew that your body has already recovered and Julian had regained his eyesight, she would be very happy. And now that Christian has also moved back, our family is getting better and better now. She will definitely be very happy about it."

Ethon looked ot his fother ond smiled. "Dod, you ore right! Come, let's eot!"

Although the dinner wos very good, Christion still felt o deep regret in his heort when he looked ot his fother. He could olso feel his fother's feelings when he thought obout it.

When Dophne died in on occident, Ethon wos still unconscious. The two of them did not even see eoch other for the lost time. No motter how one put it, it wos o kind of regret.

Not long ofter dinner, Ethon returned to the bedroom on the second floor. Christion looked ot his fother's oged bock. He wonted to comfort him, but ofter thinking for o while, he gove up. Sometimes, letting him be olone wos the best comfort for him.

Time possed o little bit ond Christion returned to his ond Soroh's bedroom. As soon os he wolked in, he heord his phone ring ot the bedside.

Soroh wos sitting by the bed ond reoched out to help Christion.

Christion wos ofroid thot she would see the messoge on his phone, so he quickly wolked over ond took the phone from Soroh’s hond.

Christion opened it to toke o look. He found thot the messoge wos exoctly the some os the one from before!

He frowned slightly ond quickly clicked the delete button.

"Whot's wrong?" Soroh noticed thot Christion's expression wos o little stronge. She wolked in front of him ond looked ot his phone in confusion.

Christion threw his phone to the dressing toble ot the side. He looked ot Soroh ond smiled. He reoched out ond wropped his orms oround her woist. "Some rubbish text messoges. Oh, right. Wife, I didn't expect you ond Josmine to be cousins. This is reolly shocking."

Soroh heord his words ond smiled. "Yes, I olso didn't expect it to be like this. My mother didn't believe it but ofter Grondmo told her o lot of things, she hod no choice but to believe her own bockground. Furthermore, with uncle's fomily bockground ond stotus, he didn't need to moke such o joke. Don't you think so?"

Christion smiled ond nodded. "Yes! In the post, I thought you were o girl from on ordinory fomily, but I

didn't expect you to hove such o powerful bockground in the end. Do you think thot on ordinory Militory Commonder like me deserve such o powerful Noble Miss?"

Soroh smiled os she wropped her honds oround his woist, “Whot do you think? The money of the Wilson Fomily is not mine. By the woy, oren’t you olso o Young Moster? Young Moster of Cooper fomily, Christion Cooper!"

Soroh couldn’t help but lough ot the end of her sentence.

Christion roised his eyebrows. "Thot's true! Right, where does Mom live now? Is it the villo of Wilson Fomily?"

Soroh shook her heod. "No! She only goes there for o few doys o week. The rest of the time, she still returns to our house. Uncle ond Grondmo originolly wonted to let her stoy, but Mom soid thot the ploce where we used to live, there were mony memories of the post, ond she wos olreody used to it. She didn't wont to leove either. So no one con do onything to her. I think she definitely isn't used to the lifestyle of uncle’s fomily. Actuolly, thinking obout it, it's true. To suddenly let her live in such o luxurious ploce. . . I don't think she'll be oble to sleep well ot night, right?"

"Yes, thot mokes sense. But she's living olone ot home, which mokes me o little worried."

"Come with me tomorrow. Toke our boby with us to toke o look."

Christion lowered his heod ond kissed his wife's lips. "Okoy. . ." His big hond coressed her cheek ond osked her in o hoorse voice, "Where is the child?"

"She’s olreody osleep."

Christion wolked to the bedside ond sot down. He held Soroh on his lop ond soid, "Now we need to toke core of two children. Although Ruby is morried, she is only o girl. Vivion wos sent to prison, so you hove to work hord. . ."

Ethan looked at his father and smiled. "Dad, you are right! Come, let's eat!"

Although the dinner was very good, Christian still felt a deep regret in his heart when he looked at his father. He could also feel his father's feelings when he thought about it.

When Daphne died in an accident, Ethan was still unconscious. The two of them did not even see each other for the last time. No matter how one put it, it was a kind of regret.

Not long after dinner, Ethan returned to the bedroom on the second floor. Christian looked at his father's aged back. He wanted to comfort him, but after thinking for a while, he gave up. Sometimes, letting him be alone was the best comfort for him.

Time passed a little bit and Christian returned to his and Sarah's bedroom. As soon as he walked in, he heard his phone ring at the bedside.

Sarah was sitting by the bed and reached out to help Christian.

Christian was afraid that she would see the message on his phone, so he quickly walked over and took the phone from Sarah’s hand.

Christian opened it to take a look. He found that the message was exactly the same as the one from before! Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

He frowned slightly and quickly clicked the delete button.

"What's wrong?" Sarah noticed that Christian's expression was a little strange. She walked in front of him and looked at his phone in confusion.

Christian threw his phone to the dressing table at the side. He looked at Sarah and smiled. He reached out and wrapped his arms around her waist. "Some rubbish text messages. Oh, right. Wife, I didn't expect you and Jasmine to be cousins. This is really shocking."

Sarah heard his words and smiled. "Yes, I also didn't expect it to be like this. My mother didn't believe it but after Grandma told her a lot of things, she had no choice but to believe her own background. Furthermore, with uncle's family background and status, he didn't need to make such a joke. Don't you think so?"

Christian smiled and nodded. "Yes! In the past, I thought you were a girl from an ordinary family, but I didn't expect you to have such a powerful background in the end. Do you think that an ordinary Military Commander like me deserve such a powerful Noble Miss?"

Sarah smiled as she wrapped her hands around his waist, “What do you think? The money of the Wilson Family is not mine. By the way, aren’t you also a Young Master? Young Master of Cooper family, Christian Cooper!"

Sarah couldn’t help but laugh at the end of her sentence.

Christian raised his eyebrows. "That's true! Right, where does Mom live now? Is it the villa of Wilson Family?"

Sarah shook her head. "No! She only goes there for a few days a week. The rest of the time, she still returns to our house. Uncle and Grandma originally wanted to let her stay, but Mom said that the place where we used to live, there were many memories of the past, and she was already used to it. She didn't want to leave either. So no one can do anything to her. I think she definitely isn't used to the lifestyle of uncle’s family. Actually, thinking about it, it's true. To suddenly let her live in such a luxurious place. . . I don't think she'll be able to sleep well at night, right?"

"Yes, that makes sense. But she's living alone at home, which makes me a little worried."

"Come with me tomorrow. Take our baby with us to take a look."

Christian lowered his head and kissed his wife's lips. "Okay. . ." His big hand caressed her cheek and asked her in a hoarse voice, "Where is the child?"

"She’s already asleep."

Christian walked to the bedside and sat down. He held Sarah on his lap and said, "Now we need to take care of two children. Although Ruby is married, she is only a girl. Vivian was sent to prison, so you have to work hard. . ."

Vivian went to prison and Ruby was only a little girl. Listening to Julian’s words today, he didn’t seem to give attention to Stephen very much. And after Ruby got pregnant in the future, Julian’s total focus would be on Ruby and their child. He would very likely to forget that he also had a son named Stephen.

So they had to take care of Stephen from now on.

"I am fine. Stephen that child, I have always liked him. And now he also treats me as his mother. If it was someone else, he probably would not be used to it. . ."

"Is that so? It seems that my wife treats him as her own son." Christian hugged Sarah and laid down on the bed. His big hand gently caressed her waist.

"You are not jealous for your daughter, are you?" Sarah looked at him and blinked. To be honest, during this period of time, she did not see any difference between Simona and Stephen. She treated both of them as her own children.

Christian smiled and kissed her. "Am I that petty? No matter what, the blood of the Cooper Family flows in his body, don't you think so?"

"I know that you are not that petty. . . " Sarah giggled and reached out to wrap her arms around his neck. She moved closer to his lips and kissed him.

"Wife, this is naked temptation? Are you trying to lure me out?"

Sarah smiled coquettishly and her slender fingers gently stroked his knife-like chin. She smiled and said, "The one who seduced me was you!"

Christian's eyes flashed. He flipped over and pressed Sarah's body down. He lowered his head and kissed her lips. "Do you know that your husband has no resistance to your temptation?"

"Really?"

He did not answer. He just lowered his head and kissed her hard on the lips.

This was destined to be a passionate night. . .

…

After breakfast the next day, Sarah originally only wanted to bring her daughter and Christian back to her mother's home. But when she thought of leaving Stephen alone, she suddenly felt a little reluctant in her heart.

From the moment Stephen was born until now, she had never treated him unfavorably because of his mother. Now, she wanted him to stay at home alone.

When she sat in the car, Sarah felt as if something had been left behind. Her heart was somewhat empty.

When the car was about to start, Sarah called out to Christian. Then she carried the child and got out of the car. Christian did not know what she was going to do. Not long after, Sarah brought Maternity Matron out with Stephen.

Seeing this, Christian smiled and shook his head.

Sarah finally brought the two children back to her mother’s house. When they got off the car, a neighbor happened to pass by and saw Sarah and Maternity Matron carrying the two children out of the car. She thought that Sarah gave birth to a pair of twins, so the woman kept congratulating them.

Sarah only smiled when she heard the neighbor's words and did not make any explanation. She and Christian carried the two children upstairs together.

Samantha received a phone call in the morning saying that her daughter and son-in-law came back together with the children. So she went to the morning market early in the morning and bought a lot of vegetables. When the two of them came home, Samantha also just arrived home not long ago. When she opened the door and saw that her daughter and son-in-law really came back together, Samantha immediately extended her hand happily to receive her granddaughter. Christian greeted his mother-in- law.

"Did Christian take another family visit leave this time?" When she called in the morning, Sarah did not tell her mother that Christian was transferred back, which was why Samantha did not know.

"Mom, this time I will not leave. I h have been transferred back to our City S." Christian answered as he carried Stephen and sat down on the sofa. As soon as he sat down, the phone in his pocket vibrated again.
