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.
"I feel so sorry for you. Let's go. I'll take you to eat something delicious. Patrick said eagerly and
handed a box of Noka vintages Collectionde to Sara. He knew that Sara liked desserts, so he bought
her from time to time.
Patrick drove a white Audi A8 that. In terms of food and clothing, he disdained to compare her own stuff
with others.
Therefore, Sara always believed that Patrick was different from other rich people. Patrick didn't care
about the appearance, the price, and the practicability. He bought things only by feeling and liking.
If he was happy, he would wear a T-shirt worth hundreds of dollars without scruple. He didn't care who
he was.
It would be impossible for Sara to do that. After all, Jacob had always reminded her that she was the
image of the Shi Group.
Patrick wore an unknown casual T-shirt and jeans,. Hi hair was naturally spread on his back. Sara
found that Patrick was not as fair as before.
"Did you eat too much chocolate and turn black. "Sara teased Patrick.
Patrick turned in another look on his face, not taking pity on her as what he did before, he rolled her
eyes at Sara and said, "can't you expect me to be good? Besides, it's wheat color skin, okay? I
specially went to the island in Las Vegas to bask in the sunlight for a month before I could get a healthy
skin. It's okay that you don't praise me, but you shouldn't make fun of me. "
Sara couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Your taste is so changeable that I almost don't know you." while saying, a silvery laughter burst out.
"Yes, yes. We mortals don't like beautiful woman as you. Next time when I go to bask in the sun, I must
take you with me. " Patrick snickered, as if they were on their way to bask in the sun.
Sara had goose bumps. No, she didn't want to! The two laughed all the way and soon arrived at the
restaurant.
Sara was in a much better mood, and Patrick was really a happy that he could bring joy to her. With
such a good friend, she had no other to ask for.
During the dinner, Patrick "forced" Sara to eat a lot of meat, hoping she could gain some more weight.
After the two had a good meal, Patrick sent Sara back to the villa. With the chocolate given by Patrick,
Sara stood on the steps of the villa and waved to say goodbye to him.
Jacob stood behind Sara. When Sara turned around, she saw someone behind her and almost cried
out, "Why are you here?
Jacob was angry, but he didn't want to lose his temper. He went home early to see Sara. He didn't
expect her to go out and have fun with her friends?
Without saying a word, he ushered Sara into the villa. The atmosphere was very subtle.
Jacob stood in front of her with a tall and straight figure. He looked so attractive in a suit, but this didn't
belong to her anymore. Maybe he had never really belonged to Sara!
Sara entered the villa with Jacob in silence, and Jacob suddenly turned around. He took out a small
box. Looking at Jacob who was against the light, Sara even couldn't see his expression on his face.
Raising her head slightly, Sara stared at Jacob's face, as if he would also shine.
All of a sudden, a sense of nervousness came over Sara. She couldn't help but swallow. And she took
a step back instinctively. Keep a relatively safe distance.
"What are you doing? Sara's tone was full of doubt. Did Jacob also want to buy her over?
Jacob also frowned slightly, as if he was going to lose his patience again.
