That was too much.Way too much.“Is breakfast ready?”“Yes. I’ll go get Xander.” Sarah was immediately reminded of her original intention. She was supposed to get Xander after waking James.With that, she turned and left.Just as she took one step forward, she recalled James’ sudden whimsical delinquency. “James, when will you ever change?”“Never.” James recalled the courting handbook he read last night, feeling sure of himself. He must kiss her every so often so that she would be habitualized with him. That way she would not be able to tolerate other guys kissing her.In the end, she would only be able to marry him.Turning this into a habit was the best tactic he had at his disposal to subdue her.“You…” Sarah was aggravated.Unfortunately, the man lying lazily in bed was nonchalantly looking at her while resting his head on his arms.She suddenly detected an abnormal scent.It was commonly said that guys were more easily turned on in the morning.She had better take her leave.“Ja
Nanny Jarvis could never imagine that someone in this world was able to threaten James Marshall.However, Sarah managed to do it.Furthermore, the threatened James Marshall was just as obedient as Xander.James really finished all the food in front of him.The breakfast was all eaten clean.James got up to pack for work but was stopped by Sarah. “James, is it okay if you leave a little later today?”“Hm?”“You can go in another half an hour.”James looked at the time, then nodded. “Sure.” With Sarah here, he did not want to leave anyway.If there were no work to be settled, he would not even bother going to the office.However, he had been unconscious for too long previously, and the Marshall Group was running in chaos for quite some time. The company had just only been set back on the right track. If he relaxed during this time, it would just revert to chaos.That was why he was unable to skip work.“Oh, didn’t you plan to bring Xander to check out the kindergarten today?”“I checked
“No.”“Young Aunt says you’re sick,” Xander stated matter of factly.“No.”“Then why would you need to take the medicine? It’s bitter.”“It’s to maintain my health,” James answered calmly, then looked at Sarah. “Bitter.”Sarah slapped his hand away. “No candy for you.”His lie may work on Xander, but it would not work on her.She knew of his sickness better than anyone else.To the extent that she was able to discern the root of the sickness.James sighed, then shifted his gaze on the packs of candies on the table. “It’s been many years since I’ve eaten candy.”“I’ve not eaten candy for a long time too. Young Aunt, you’ve just eaten. Can I have one too?” Xander joined in.Sarah suddenly felt teary.She was sad for the young one, and the older one too.‘He had not eaten candy for many years?’‘That’s right, he wouldn’t taste anything after eating them anyway.’Too much sweet things were not good for health. Why would he eat them?Thinking of that, she unwrapped two candies. One for Xand
“Kneel.” Sarah York was shoved out of the car and was forced to kneel.“Kowtow.” Another demand came, and her head was immediately forced down, knocking hard on the marble floor.Pain.There was blood accompanying the pain. Of course, the person who was forcing Sarah’s head down ignored the blood and continued holding her down, making her kowtow a few more times.Blood rolled down from her cheeks to the corner of her lips—it tasted salty. She wanted to scream but she could not do it because of the red brocade in her mouth.Her long hair was roughly pulled up, forcing her to look up and ahead.There was a red coffin, and a man was sleeping quietly in it.Sarah swore that the man was the most handsome guy she had ever seen.She stared blankly at the man in the coffin. It turned out that James Marshall was actually very good looking.He was more good looking than she could ever imagine.If she had been asked to marry a man like him in the past, she would have fluttered to hi
The red coffin was huge.There were two red pillows placed side-by-side.Sarah laid on the pillow and turned her head to look at the man next to her.He was so good looking.She thought she would be afraid of him, but she wanted to touch his face when she looked at it.Although his face was cold to the touch, it retained its skin-like texture.She thought his good looks were the result of his makeup, but she found out that James was naturally attractive. “Hehe, you must’ve secretly admired me before, right? Or else, why would you drag me along even when you’re dead?” she whispered softly while wagging her finger at James’ face. Then, she heard the Marshall family closing the cover of the coffin on top of her.The red coffin was moving.The man next to her swayed along with the red coffin.She knew that once the coffin was in the pit, the next step would be to fill the pit with soil, and then build the tomb.At that time, cement would be poured on the coffin, and beautiful b
“James, you’re alive?” Sarah sat up in disbelief and placed one of her fingertips on his lips. They were soft, and she felt a shallow breath.Sarah opened her eyes wide and looked at the jade in the necklace on James’ neck. She then looked at the birthmark on her arm. It seemed that everything that had just been poured into her mind was real.Unfortunately, she did not have any internal strength [1] then. If she had the strength that was described in those texts, James would have already woken up.That being said, she was glad that he was alive.Bang...bang...bang! Sarah knocked on the cover of the red coffin, and shouted, “Let me out! James is alive! Let me out! James is alive…”Sarah was knocking aggressively and shouting loudly in order to get out alive.“Madam, the young mistress said Young Master is alive.” The servants from the Marshall family who were refilling the grave pit with soil stopped whatever they were doing when they heard Sarah’s voice and got up to report to We
Sarah’s pale face became even paler.The servant from Marshall’s family regarded her call as a harassment call.The entire Marshall family believed that she and James were dead. No one would believe her when she called.“What’s wrong? Weren’t your family picking you up?” The old man beside her looked over and approached with concern.“It’s fine. Someone will pick us up and we’ll leave soon.” Sarah put down the unconscious James on the old man’s bed.James seemed to move the moment she put him down.Sarah bowed her head and looked at him. It seemed as though a man who had an obsession with clean smells was protesting against being put on the old man’s dirty bed. Sarah ignored him. If it was not for him, she would not have nearly experienced death.Sarah then made two phone calls.This time, the phone calls were picked up and answered.She returned the handphone to the old man and sat quietly next to James with her eyes closed.She was too weak.She was obviously feeling unc
“It’s me.” Sarah, who had taken off her red burial dress, was reclining on the companion bed in the nurse uniform provided by a nurse. Wendy stared at Sarah, feeling slightly stunned. “Are you, Molly or Yam?” If it was not either of them, how could this girl look so much like Sarah?The York family had three daughters—Molly, Yam, and Sarah. Jimmy chose Sarah who had just turned 19 to be James’ wife. Although the social status of the two families was not well-matched, Sarah’s birthdate characters were perfectly compatible with James’, and he was already dead so Mrs. Marshall eventually agreed to their marriage.Sarah got up and pointed at James who was being examined on the ward bed. “I’ll leave this person to you and take my leave.” She turned around without looking back after saying that.“Stop.” Wendy instantly became enraged. It was the first time in years that she encountered a girl who did not respect her. She then screened through the ward following Sarah’s steps and was s
