"Me?" Sarah pointed at herself and looked at Charles in disbelief. She was getting offended by him, thinking that it was the biggest joke in the world. Once again, he was trusting the wrong person, while she, the innocent one, was being misunderstood again.

"I thought you knew everything, but I must be wrong. If I really had been against her before, I would say nothing now. But I didn't do anything to her. She framed me against you, why should I make apologies for that? And did you think that I was against her just because she spoke ill of me? Charles, did you really see anything from her?"

Charles started to get irritated, especially after standing outside the ward for a whole night. He was tired and sleepy and not in the mood to argue with Sarah at all. "Stop! You always have your own reasons. You win, okay? Stop here. I don't want to talk about it anymore. I just thought you shouldn't care about the same thing for all this time!"

His response irritated Sarah, and she wouldn't just let it go now. Pulling his arm, she asked. "Am I? But for Emma being against me all the time, should I care about that? Charles, I finally understand that you will always favor her over me anything involving Emma. You always take her side, have you noticed it? Who is your wife? To keep a harmonious family, on whose side should you be?"

Charles started to feel uneasy. He shrugged her hands away and turned around, biting his lips. Hiding his unfriendly tone, he said. "Do you still want to buy breakfast with me? If you are angry, you can go back to the hospital, I will buy the food alone!"

He walked down the stairs, leaving Sarah standing alone. Sarah looked at his back. Unwilling to go with him now, she stood at the top of the stairs and watched him walk away. She was so angry at him and felt like a complete fool, always unable to deal with these kinds of confrontations. Every time she ended clashing with Charles.

Perhaps Charles would not think her to be considerate and that Emma was indeed better than her.

Sarah really didn't know how to get along with men. She had always thought men and women to be equal and that if there was a problem, it had to be solved, but did every problem need to be spelled out to men to address it? Why should women play up to men? What was more, she hadn't asked anything from Charles, so why should she be tolerant of him?

She remembered her conversation with Lee at the pastry shop. Lee had called her arrogant. Maybe men liked arrogance at the beginning but got tired of it after some time, especially men like Charles, who were used to have many girlfriends and mistresses. Men like him would not tolerate arrogance for a long time, Lee had warned her.

Was it true? Was Charles tired of her? And given that there was another woman after him whom he saw as more tender and better at playing up to him… Sarah didn't know why, but she suddenly started to feel very unconfident in her own abilities.

Was she really that bad and unable to keep a man? She was not willing to let Charles be snatched away by Emma, she wouldn't allow it. He was her husband, and she was going to fight for him.

As Sarah was thinking about it, she became more disappointed in herself. She still couldn't deal well with these things in her marriage. Carrie had warned her not to make a scene in front of Charles, or else he may push him away. Back in Houston, she had felt more confident and had dealt with it well, but now she had screwed up again. Was it really because of her character? Now that Mr. Thomas was seriously ill, she had only Charles left to support her. If she couldn't keep Charles's heart, then, maybe… their marriage would not survive.

Sarah laughed bitterly. She hadn't expected herself to have such a weak position in this family where only the men supported her!

Sarah didn't follow Charles nor go back into the hospital. She just kept standing at the hospital entrance waiting for him to come back.

Charles was surprised to see her standing at the same place where he had left her when he came back. Sarah just looked at him silently. She was no longer angry but had a rather dull expression on her face. Charles was still mad at her after their fight and walked straight by her and up the stairs, looking down to not face her.

When Sarah noticed that he was ignoring her, she followed him without complaining, also looking down to watch her steps as she sped up to catch up with him. She took his hand to help carry the breakfast he had bought.

Charles turned to look at her with an ironic, or maybe an arrogant look.

Although having been wronged, Sarah didn't want to continue to clash with Charles here at this time. With a soft tone, she gently asked him. "Are you still angry at me?"

Charles raised his eyebrows and countered, asked. "Are you not angry at me?"

Hearing his negative tone, Sarah decided that it was better to suppress her anger for now. She figured that to get along with Charles, she needed to be softer with him. Maybe Carrie had been right that women should always be sweet with their husbands.

Sarah held his arm tightly and leaned her head in his arm as she responded. "Charles... I was wrong. I am just an impulsive person. Can you forgive me?"

Charles looked at the woman in his arms. He raised his eyebrows, wondering if she was submissive to him. Sarah had never been like this before ever since they had gotten married. He sometimes wished to find Sarah submissive to him after he came back from work, but she had always been a strong woman. After all, men love to see their wife catering to them, it gives them a sense of conquest.

Was Sarah somehow enlightened about that fact today?
