The Contract Marriage

Chapter 118 I Will Always Stand By Your Side
“Tell me, does this have anything to do with you?”
Sarah helplessly shook her head. What happened was too sudden and she still did not understand what was going on.
“I also do not know what was going on. Vivian said that she wanted to drink water and asked me to send her a cup of water. At
that time, all the servants in the house went out. Even Lea left. I know that she is not in good health. Thus, I poured a cup of
warm water and went upstairs.”
“However, there was still one more step to go. Vivian walked over and stood on the stairs, directly taking the cup of water from
the tray to drink. Then, she seemed to have been scalded. She said, do I want to scald her to death? But Christian, the water I
took wasn’t scalding at all. Next, I don’t know what happened to her. She suddenly fell down from the stairs. . . “
Sarah’s eyes were filled with tears as she explained everything that had happened. She looked at him uneasily. Something like
this had happened all of a sudden. She did not know how to deal with this. Although she did not like Vivian, she did not want to
do anything to her.
“I understand. . .” After his wife finished speaking, Christian understood what was going on. Only he knew how kind Sarah was.
She was a woman who did not know how to scheme. How could she be a match for Vivian?
Vivian must have taken the abortion medicine first and then deliberately let his wife go upstairs. So that she could blame this
matter on Sarah.
“Christian, are you suspecting me too?” Sarah looked at him nervously and her heart was in a mess. Although she heard about
Vivian taking the abortion medicine, she was still a little nervous when she thought about Daphne’s words.
“This matter has nothing to do with you. Why would I suspect you? It was she who took the medicine herself and wanted to
frame you! Don’t be so nervous. There is a saying that goes, ‘a proper person is not afraid of the shadows.’ Since it was not you
who did it, don’t be afraid! As long as I am here, I won’t let anyone hurt you!”
“Thank you!” Sarah felt warm in her heart when she heard what he said. She felt much more at ease than before.
Christian smiled and looked at her. He reached out and gently pulled her into his embrace.

About half an hour after Vivian was pushed into the operating theater, Julian rushed over from the company. When he was
almost at the door of the resuscitation room, he saw his mother sitting on a chair, crying and wiping her tears. He immediately
walked over and sat beside his mother nervously.
“Mom! How is Vivian?”
When Daphne heard her son’s voice, she immediately looked up. When she saw her son, tears flowed out and she started to cry
emotionally. “Julian, Vivian, she. . . Your child. . . Cannot be saved. . . “
Julian frowned and looked up at Sarah and Christian who were not far away. He looked down at his mother and asked, “Mom,
what is going on? I just went to the company for a while. How did it become like this?”
Daphne heard her son’s words and immediately raised her hand to point at Sarah with tears in her eyes. “You ask her!”
Julian frowned and looked at Sarah. He was somewhat puzzled. “Sister-in-law, what is going on?”
Christian looked at his brother with an indifferent expression and opened his mouth to speak first. “Vivian asked Sarah to pour
water for her. Sarah happened to bump into Vivian when she went upstairs. Vivian accidentally fell down when she drank water
on the stairs!”
Julian heard Christian’s words and did not reply. He only nodded slightly.
“What do you mean by accidentally? She pushed Vivian down on purpose!” When she heard Christian speak for Sarah, Daphne
immediately corrected him angrily.
“Aunt Daphne was also not present. How did you know Sarah pushed Vivian down? Furthermore, Vivian herself took the
abortion medicine. Even if she did not fall down from the stairs, your grandson would still not be able to be protected!” Christian
looked at his stepmother and retorted in a cold voice.
Julian roughly understood what was going on after listening to the conversation between the two of them. However, Christian’s
following words shocked him. “Big Brother, what did you just say? Vivian took an abortion medicine?” His big hands could not
help but hold together nervously.
“Don’t listen to their nonsense! They are trying to shirk responsibility! Can’t you see such an obvious thing?” Daphne heard her
son’s words and immediately pointed at Christian and Sarah and shouted.

Julian frowned and knew that this matter could not be explained in a short period of time. He patted his mother’s back to comfort
her. “Mom, the matter has not been clarified yet. Don’t be so anxious to come to a conclusion. Anyway, the matter is already like
this. Let’s wait for Vivian to come out first and then talk about it. . . “
Although Sarah had nothing to do with him now, he was still very clear about what kind of girl she was. No matter how much she
did not like Vivian, she would not do anything to push the latter down the stairs.
He was still very clear about this point.
When Daphne heard her son’s words, she immediately looked at her son angrily. “Is Vivian really your wife? She is carrying your
child! Who are you speaking on behalf of now? “
“Mom, isn’t Vivian still unconscious now? Don’t rush to the conclusion now. We are not at the scene. Everything will wait until she
wakes up!” Julian looked at his mother helplessly.
Daphne listened to her son and glared at him again. But she also understood that at this time, no matter what she said, it would
be useless. She thought for a while and then fell silent.
Another hour passed. . .
The resuscitation room door finally opened. Vivian was pushed out from the inside by the nurse. When Daphne saw her being
pushed out, she immediately looked at the doctor nervously and asked, “Doctor, how is my daughter-in-law? You guys. . . Didn’t
remove her uterus, right?”
“Don’t worry! We did our best to protect her uterus. . . “
“Does that mean she will be pregnant and have children in the future?”
“That’s great! Thank you! Thank you!” Daphne immediately expressed her gratitude when she heard the doctor’s words.
Vivian was pushed into the ward, and the others also followed in. The doctor roughly explained the situation in the ward and said
that Vivian’s body was fine. As long as she rested well for a month, there would be no problem.
After the doctor finished speaking, he left. There were only four people left in the ward. Daphne looked at Sarah and felt that she
was an eyesore.
“Julian, you stay! Christian, you can leave!”

Christian saw that his stepmother did not argue with her too much, so he nodded and looked at Julian. “Sarah and I will go see
Dad. Call me if you need anything.”
“Okay. . .” Julian nodded. He looked at Sarah, who was still nervous and uneasy, and then looked away.
Christian put his arm around Sarah’s shoulder and walked out of Vivian’s ward. Once the door of the room was closed, Daphne
looked at Julian and reproached him. “Take a look at how Vivian is like. My grandson was also not saved. Clearly it was Sarah
who did it, but you actually speak up for her. Your brain is really flooded, right?”
“Mom, let’s wait for Vivian to wake up before talking. . .” Julian looked at his mother impatiently and said.
Daphne once again looked at her son unhappily. When she looked at Vivian, she could not help but sigh. With a sigh, her little
grandson was gone!
Christian brought Sarah out of the ward and saw that she could not raise her spirits. He understood that she was still worried
about this matter, but there were some things that were really inconvenient to say here. He then led her upstairs.
The two of them first went to take a look at Ethan in the ward and saw that he had not woken up for the time being. Then, they
went out of the room and lightly closed the door of the ward.
Christian hugged her and sat down on a chair. He reached out and pulled her into his arms.
“Don’t be too nervous. This has nothing to do with you. I trust you!” After saying that, Christian slightly lowered his head and
kissed her forehead.
“Thank you for believing me. . .” From the moment things happened until now, it was as if there were a few hundred little rabbits
in her heart. Sarah felt completely uneasy. She did not know what Vivian would say when she woke up.
But when she recalled the scene of Vivian and herself on the stairs, she clearly did not do anything to Vivian, why did she fall
down?
If Vivian wanted to frame her, the one in her womb was her own flesh and blood. Usually, she would look at her happy belly and
had high expectations for the child in her womb. It was impossible for her to do that on purpose. Didn’t that mean she lifted a
stone and smashed her own feet?

When Christian heard her thank you, he smiled faintly. “Silly girl, am I not your husband? Why did you say thank you to me?
Besides, you didn’t do this. What are you feeling guilty about?”
“But. . . I have caused you trouble again. . .” Sarah lowered her head guiltily. Her fingers were tangled together uneasily and she
did not know what to do.
The matter of Ethan’s illness had already caused the Cooper Family to become a mess. She did not expect that at this time, this
kind of thing would happen again.
She really didn’t know what to do. Luckily, Christian was by her side. With him by her side, her heart felt much more at ease.
“Don’t always be so polite to me, Sarah. No matter what happens, you have to remember one thing. I will always stand by your
side, understand?” Christian gently held his wife’s hand and comforted her.
Sarah looked up at him and understood that he was also as anxious as she was now. She nodded her head in understanding.
Seeing that she did not speak, Christian continued to speak, “Actually, our family knows very well what kind of person you are.
You are not the type of scheming girl. This is just an accident. No one wants it to happen, but since it has happened, we have to
face it bravely. “
“Yes, Christian, I understand.” Sarah nodded again when she heard what he said.
“This is a good child.” Christian raised his hand and gently scratched the tip of her nose. The two of them looked at each other
and smiled.
About half an hour later, Ethan finally woke up from the coma. Although the surgery was very successful, when he opened his
eyes, his speaking ability still decreased a lot. He looked at his son and daughter-in-law who were sitting beside him and blinked
weakly.
“Dad, you’re awake?” Christian saw his father open his eyes and immediately held his hand.
Ethan looked at the two people and opened his mouths for a long time before saying a few words. Sarah could not even hear his
clearly.
Christian lowered his head and moved closer to Ethan’s mouth. It was not long before he heard what he said clearly. He
understood that he was asking about Daphne and Julian. Christian immediately replied, “Aunt Daphne temporarily went home
and Julian went to the company. They all came to see you in the morning. Grandpa is also at home.”

Ethan blinked his eyes in understanding. He stared at the ceiling, as if he was thinking about what had happened to him.
