Chapter 185

Greta’s body went limp and she collapsed on the chair.

Greta had been in the army for so many years. She liked the men in the military camp. The people here were smart and capable. Their words were loud and clear.

Moreover, there were very few female soldiers here, so female soldiers were always the target of men’s attention. She liked this feeling.

Although Christian was not among those men, her vanity could still be greatly satisfied!

But now, Christian wanted her to leave!

No! Absolutely not!

Greta lowered her head and wanted to call Christian back, but when she saw the broken phone on the floor, her tears gushed out.

Fortunately, she remembered Christian’s phone number with familiarity. She did not care about the broken phone. She picked up the landline on the table and called him.

“Hello.” Christian’s voice quickly came from the other end of the phone.

“Christian, it’s me! Listen to me! I was wrong! Don’t let me leave. . .”

Before Greta could finish her words, she heard that the other end of the phone had already completely gone silent. There was only a beeping sound coming from the receiver.

The earpiece slowly slid down from her hand. Greta eyes were filled with despair as she closed her eyes. Tears also slowly flowed down.

There was no mistake in loving a person.

But if you use the pretense of love to destroy other people’s marriage and family, that would be unforgivable.

Just like what Christian had said before, knowing that it is impossible to do it, if you still insisted on doing it that is the most hateful.

The off-road vehicle travelled in the city for about half an hour and finally drove into Villa of Cooper Family.

The car stopped in front of the villa. Christian quickly got out of the car and strode into the living room of the villa.

Today was Saturday. Although Ethan had recovered a lot, the number of times he went to the company was still much less than before. When Christian walked in, Ethan was sitting on the sofa with Benjamin and Daphne chatting.

During this period of recuperation, his body looked like a normal person. When he saw his son walk in, a smile instantly appeared on Ethan’s face.

There were many things in this world that could only be gained only if you lost something.

To Ethan, this illness had allowed him to see the other side of his eldest son.

Ethan had always thought that Christian’s feelings for him were not as deep as he had thought.

However, it was this illness that allowed him to see the feelings of his son, who rarely spoke in the family, for him clearly.

“Dad, how are you?”

Hearing his son ask him, Ethan smiled and nodded. “Don’t worry about me. I am in good health now.

How are things in the army recently? Is everything going well?”

“Everything is fine. Dad, I came back this time because I have something to tell you.” Christian looked at his father in front of him and then looked at grandpa who was sitting on the sofa. There was some unspeakable guilt hidden in his black eyes.

He was the eldest son in the family after all, but he usually spent the least time at home.

“Yes, tell me. What is it?”

“Dad, I have been transferred to another city. The transfer order was issued two days ago. I came back this time because of the transfer order. My superiors gave me a few days of vacation.”

Ethan nodded. Christian was a soldier. He actually understood this kind of “Then where did you transfer to? Is it far from here? “

“The new military camp is in X Province, close to a thousand miles from here. I will not be able to come back any time soon in the future.” Christian replied with a bit of guilt.

Daphne was drinking tea from a cup in her hand on the sofa. When she heard what Christian said, her eyes flashed and she put down the cup.

“Christian, you are a soldier. Soldier’s duty is to obey orders. No matter how far you go, you don’t have to worry about the family matters. I’m here.”

Christian leaving the family was the happiest thing for her. But no matter how happy she was in her heart, she couldn’t show it on her face.

“In the future, I will not at home and Dad’s health is not good either. Furthermore, Sarah is pregnant now. In the future, I will have to trouble Aunt Daphne to take care of it.”

Although he did not have a good relationship with Daphne, but when Christian thought about how he would be gone for a long time and Sarah had to come back to this family, so he couldn’t have a bad relationship with his stepmother.

Daphne waved her hand and smiled. “Christian, don’t worry. There are so many maids in the house.

Nothing will happen.”

“Yes, I feel much more relieved when Aunt Daphne says so.”

Benjamin also smiled and comforted when he heard Christian’s words. “Christian, don’t worry. Our family will definitely take good care of Sarah. Don’t worry about the future. Work hard in the new military camp and strive to achieve good results.”

“Got it, Grandpa. I will not let you down!”

“Christian, after you are transferred this time, will you return to your original troops in the future?” Ethan asked worriedly.

“I don’t think so. We’ll see how it goes. But the Bureau Chief said that if I do being transferred back to our place is very high.” Christian answered Ethan with a smile.

“You mean the garrison troops here?” This news was really a pleasant surprise to Ethan.

“Yes! If I do well in a year, I might be transferred back. At that time, I will be much closer to home. If I drive, I’ll be back in about an hour.”

“That’s great. Then you must do your best when you go. Sarah is still young. It’s too hard for you two to be separated like this. Even if it is for Sarah, you must put in more effort. Do you understand?”

“Dad, don’t worry.”

“Yes. . .”

As they were talking, they heard footsteps coming from the door of the living room.

Everyone looked over and saw Vivian walking in with a basket in her hand. The basket seemed to be very heavy and Vivian struggled to carry it.

After a few steps into the living room, Vivian smashed the basket onto the ground with a clang. Then she straightened her back and frowned as she took a few deep breaths. “Aiyo. I’m so tired.”

Daphne saw the expression on her daughter-in-law’s face and quickly ran over nervously. As she walked, she called out to her, “Oh my God. Vivian, why are you carrying such a heavy thing? Didn’t you return to your mother’s house?”

Daphne walked over and looked down at the things in the basket. They were all food. After placing the basket full, she reached out and picked it up. Realizing that it was really not an ordinary weight, she immediately looked at Vivian in reproach.

“Vivian, you are now carrying the grandson of our Cooper Family. Do you understand? There was already an accident last time. This time, you have to protect your body no matter what! Did you hear that?”

Vivian heard mother-in-law’s words and immediately smiled and nodded, “Mom, look at how nervous you are. If he is fated with you, no matter how hard I work, he will definitely be fine. And if he is not fated with you. . .”

“Stop it! My grandson must have fate with me. Don’t do this kind of work again in the future. Lea, take all the things to the kitchen.”

Daphne raised her hand and did not let Vivian continue.

Ever since Vivian had the miscarriage last time, Daphne was really scared. Now, Daphne really could not help but be very careful of this grandson that she had finally looked forward to. She was afraid that something bad would happen to Vivian this time.

Lea immediately walked over and took all the things Vivian brought into the kitchen. Daphne immediately brought Vivian to the sofa and sat down.

Vivian looked at Christian who was on the sofa. She smiled and greeted him, “Big Brother is back?”

Ever since she married Julian, she had barely spoken to her ex-fiancé. Most of the time, it was her who had spoken. Christian did not respond to her at all. But even so, Every time she saw him, she would still take the initiative to greet him.

“Yes.” Christian looked at her indifferently, then he retracted his gaze and picked up the teacup on the coffee table to take a sip.

Vivian smiled and sat beside Daphne. She looked at Christian and then looked at Daphne beside her.

She smiled and said, “Mom, when I went back to my mom’s house today, I happened to meet an auntie next door. She said that looking at my face, this child must be a son.”

Daphne liked to hear this kind of words. When she heard her daughter-in-law finish speaking, her eyes immediately lit up and she said with a smile.

“Really? I am looking forward to you giving birth to a grandson.”

Ethan listened to his wife’s words and looked at her. He said in a deep voice, “It is better not to listen to this kind of thing. Whether it is the son or daughter, they are the flesh and blood of our Cooper Family.”

Daphne heard her husband’s words and replied with a smile. “Although that is what you say, our family has such a big business. What if we don’t give birth to a grandson? If we give birth to a granddaughter, wouldn’t our Cooper Group become someone else’s?”

Ethan immediately looked at his wife and said, “Look at what you’re saying. Isn’t there still Christian and Sarah? Even if Vivian had a daughter, Sarah might still have a grandson. At that time, our Cooper Group will still stay in our hands, right?”

After Daphne heard her husband’s words, she originally wanted to rebut. But when she saw Christian’s face, she immediately swallowed back what she wanted to say.

Daphne smiled and nodded, “What Ethan said is right. There is also our Sarah. But if our Cooper Family have two grandsons, it would be even good. Dad, don’t you think so?”

Benjamin smiled and nodded. “Yes! At this time next year, the Cooper Family will have two more people! Just thinking about it makes me happy.”

Vivian just came back from her mother’s house and she was thirsty. She picked up the tea cup on the coffee table and was about to drink it.

Daphne raised her hand to block it, “How can you drink this? Wait a minute. Hanah, quickly get that fruit plate for young madam.”

After saying that, she looked at Vivian worriedly, “Vivian, if you are thirsty, drink some milk.”

“Mom, I think I should eat fruit. I always feel that there is a taste.”

“Okay! Just tell Mom what you want to eat. Mom will get someone to specially buy it for you.” Ever since Daphne found out that Vivian was pregnant with a boy again, she instantly returned to her previous state.

“Thank you, Mom!” Vivian looked at mother-in-law and smiled coquettishly.

“You are still polite with me?”

Daphne did not mind if Christian was here and when she saw Hanah walking over with a plate of fruit, she immediately stood up and took the plate of fruit and placed it in front of Daphne. She even picked up the fork and handed it to Vivian, “Quickly eat. Don’t starve my grandson to death.”

“Thank you mom. . .” Vivian looked at Daphne’s sweet smile and put a piece of fruit into her mouth.

Christian saw Daphne’s attentive expression towards Vivian and silently withdrew his gaze.
