With sleepy eyes, Sara took her phone from the bedside table and said lazily, "Hello, Patrick. What's wrong?"
Patrick said in a sharp voice, "Sara, you finally answer my phone. I've heard everything about you from Sherry. I've been calling you these two days, but your phone was turned off. I'm so worried about you. "
Sara had sit up and leaning on the pillow, with the corner of her mouth lifted unconsciously. Patrick was Sara's best friend. They had been friends since childhood. If it weren't for the gender, maybe Sara would want to marry Bess.
"Patrick, I'm not in a good mood recently. I can't control my emotions. I don't know what to do." Only in front of her good friend Patrick, could Sara put down her inhuman pride, speak out her inner thoughts with all her heart.
Patrick could feel the grievance in Sara's heart. It was heartbreaking.
"Don't worry, Sara. I won't let that bastard Jacob live a good life. How dare he bully you like this? I'll kill him. " Patrick's tone was full of anger. If Jacob was really beside her at this time, Jacob would probably be killed by him.
Sara knew Patrick very well. He was a man of his word and was not afraid of anything.
Sometimes, Sara couldn't help but sigh, 'it's so good to have money.'. Patrick's family was wealthy, almost comparable to the Shi Group. But unlike the spoiled rich second-generation, He was always vigorous and resolute, making friends with others wholeheartedly. However, from childhood to adulthood, there were always few people who approached Patrick because of his powerful family background.
Sara and Patrick were classmates in college. He always felt that Sara was different from others. Sara was always with pride, neither humble nor pushy. At first, Patrick thought that Sara was pretending to be pure and lofty, but after a long time, he found that some of her temperament was innate.
Patrick began to talk to Sara, but later he found that they two had almost the same temperament, so they became friends since then. He was such a proud man, but he was not arrogant in front of Sara.
In Sara's eyes, Patrick was not a spoiled rich man, but brave who was full of confidence.
This was something that Sara couldn't envy. So money was really a good thing. It couldn't buy love, but it could get one's dignity back.
Hearing that, Sara frowned slightly. No, there must be something wrong? The problem between her and Jacob was not as simple as money. Despite the days and nights they spent together and the difficulties they overcame, their relation had overturned unexpectedly.
This was really a marriage boat that could be turned over at any time, and a love wheel could sink at any time.
"Patrick, you know, I don't want to rely on you all the time. I can also be independent. Trust me." Sara's
tone was unquestionable. When her father's company was in trouble, she could have relied on the help of Patrick to get through the difficulties, but she didn't. She didn't want to be inferior, nor did she want to become a person who took advantage of her friends in other people's eyes. She didn't want to lose her confidence and dignity.
In the end, Sara accepted the unequal marriage terms that Jacob also put forward-after marriage, the man can terminate the legal marriage of the two at any time by his own will.
From the very beginning, Sara was in a disadvantage position. However, Sara was not reconciled. She thought she would be with Jacob forever, but she did not expect that flattery was the most deadly and also the most hurtful.
The two chatted for a while and finally agreed to have dinner together.
Patrick drove to the gate of Jacob's villa to pick up Sara who was walking far away. Wearing a white dress and a pair of black 5 centimeter stilettos, Sara didn't look good in mood. With light make-up, Sara's beautiful and smooth neck was exposed, and her eyes were full of morbid beauty. She was so thin that Patrick almost couldn't recognize her.
He frowned. His voice was dissatisfied, but his heart ached even more.
As soon as Sara got on the car, she heard Patrick's gentle and concerned voice, which was full of affection. "Sara, you are thinner. "
"I don't have a good appetite recently, and I often suffer from insomnia at night. " Sara tried her best to calm herself down. It's not appropriate to say something sad.
