Chapter 143: Living A Miserable Life

"Every time he suspects you of something, you will get hurt deeper and deeper. Is it worth it? We were hired to do a job, and we are going to finish it. I tried to reason with you and to leave Charles willingly. If you think about it, I'm quite helpful to you, right? I'm actually helping you to unveil the real Charles in front of you, you should be grateful to have this chance to escape. Isn't it better for you to just leave now while you still can?"

Sarah spits on his face in response. That criminal burst in anger and slapped her face, scorning, "I'm done with you, I have other things to tend to. I'll give you two days to think about what you want to do next. If you still refuse to reason at the end of two days, I will kill you without hesitating. I'm wasting my time trying to talk sense into a silly woman like you!"

After he was done ranting, he ordered everyone else to go out, and closed the warehouse door after them, extinguishing all lights, leaving her alone in the dark.

Sarah looked to the top of the warehouse in the darkness, where a small glimmer of light came through the cracks. Suddenly she felt overcome by sadness, and scenes of her love story and marriage life passed in her mind like she was watching a movie.

In the beginning, it had all been too sweet and fairytale-like, but very soon, it had turned sour with nothing left but tormented moments. Both Christina and Emma had continuously interfered between her and Charles, making him distrust her and believe that she was having an affair with Daniel. He had listened to his mom and sister mistreat her verbally to hurt her yet had done nothing to stop them.

It looked like their love had only been in her imagination. She used to think that as long as they loved each other, they would be able to make it, but could they really ever overcome everything they had suffered?

Thinking about it realistically, Sarah knew that they could never be happy together again. If they stayed together, they would continue to hurt each other again and again, living a miserable life.

In the past, she had chosen to stay for the sake of her father-in-law, who had insisted on keeping the family together. She had failed to live up to his expectations now that he was not with them any longer, and Charles would never trust her again. Christina and Emma would never let go of their obsession to bother her. Was there any good in insisting? She was a self-respecting woman, then why should she tolerate them? Why should she give in to their demands?

The more Sarah thought about it, the sadder she became. Alone in the darkness, she cried her heart out, whispering his name. "Charles… Charles… " as tears rolled over her face non-stop. She didn't know why she was calling out his name, or if she loved or hated him. He was the cause of all her suffering, so why was she still thinking about him in her darkest hour? His name was written deep into her heart…

Two endless days passed with Sarah being tied up and alone in the dark warehouse. Occasionally, the guard that was outside would bring her food, which remained untouched. Sarah was starting to look skinny and weak from not eating, but all she could feel was a deep sadness overpowering her.

Finally, on the third day, the kidnapping leader came back. When he saw Sarah exhausted and with dull-looking eyes, he knew that she had been crying and was extremely sad.

He sneered and said with an irritated voice. "Well, have you figured it out? Are you going to accept the offer, or are you eager to die? I'm not in the mood to waste any more of my time in talking to you, silly woman!

Sarah looked at him with a dull expression but didn't say a word. Her fierceness and bravery were gone, and all that was left was a hollow shell.

The kidnapper continued. "Maybe I should tell you one more good news before I kill you. Your beloved husband, Charles, left Los Angeles and went back to Houston today. He's too busy with his business now to even bother looking for you. The good thing is he's still young and rich, considered a golden bachelor after divorcing you. There will be countless women offering themselves to him. You really thought he'd remember you forever? Especially since they think that you betrayed him?"

Sarah was numb. Though she was looking at her kidnapper, her expression was so bleak and expressionless that no one knew what she was thinking.

Still not satisfied, the kidnapper added. "You're such a silly woman. Look, is this what you call love? The trust between you two is broken by the slightest bit of misunderstanding. How can you ever be happy living like this? Even if you love each other, your stubborn character is the main reason for all this. Do you really love this man enough to want to die for him? Is he worth it?"

Sarah still didn't answer.

Irritated, her kidnapper turned cold and spit on the ground. "Fuck, just wasting my time here. Guys, take her out and kill her. No use in keeping her alive!"

The two young criminals untied her feet and dragged her out, with her hands still tied together. While being dragged out, Sarah suddenly seemed to regain some energy and said with a dull look, "Where am I going if I choose to accept your offer?"

Relieved not to have to kill her, the gang leader immediately ordered the two guys to stop as he walked toward her with a smile. "So, you finally came to your senses?"

Sarah didn't answer his question, just asked numbly, "Can I go to Texas? Isn't this the time for tulips? Tulips are so beautiful, aren't they?" She remembered that when they first got married, Charles had promised her they would go to Texas for their honeymoon and then from there to the Maldives, but then they had to cancel all their honeymoon plans after Mr.. Thomas had gotten sick.
