Chapter 37: I WILL TRY NEVER TO DISAPPOINT YOU


    "You have no respect at all. How on earth has Charles taken a fancy to you!" Mrs. Thomas replied


    bitterly.


    Sarah sneered, "Mrs. Thomas, do you really know your own son? Mr. Thomas felt a little guilty about


    Charles because of the way he deprived him of attention during his early years. You, however, do you


    even care about your son? Do you know what he wants?"


    "I''m his mother. I can give him the best thing in the world!" Mrs. Thomas hadn''t expected Sarah to


    respond to her with such hostility.


    Sarah looked at her calmly and said, "Mrs. Thomas, I thought you were a good mother before. After all,


    you care about Charles. Therefore, when you asked me to leave, I promised you I would. However,


    over time, I have discovered that you are disrespectable and disillusioned. You never make allowances


    for others, including your son. You never got to know your son, and you never ask him what he wants.


    Instead, you impose what you think is good on him ording to your will. You hardly consider that


    these good things may not be suitable for Charles. So, today I just want you to know that I will never


    consider your opinion again, no matter how you try to stop us. I love Charles, and we will be together


    forever!"


    "Oh my god!" Mrs. Thomas had never been challenged in this way before. Her face flushed with


    shame, "Look at yourself! I always thought you were a decent girl, and you wouldn''t badger with


    Charles for fame. Now, however, I see that I had you wrong. You are even more shameless than these


    girls who are only after fame and wealth!"


    Suddenly, Sarah stood up and answered, "Mrs. Thomas, I am a decent girl, that''s why I wouldn''t y


    up to you, and that''s why I challenge you when I think you are wrong. It seems as though you will never


    agree to it, but I still want to be with Charles. I would still take you as my mother-inw for the wedding


    if you agree to be respectful. If you still show me disrespect, I will fight against you. I only hope we can


    have an equal and harmonious rtionship."


    "You!" Mrs. Thomas suddenly stood up and was about to quarrel further when a voice was heard


    shouting from a distance, "All right!" Mr. Thomas had returned, interrupting their conversation.


    Mrs. Thomas immediately began arguing with him, "You see. This is who you chose! She has


    disrespected her elders before even bing a part of our family."


    Sarah seemed to realize how aggressive she had just been, so she lowered her head and kept silent.


    Mr. Thomas walked closer to them and said, coldly, "I see it now. It is very clear. Christina, you needn''t


    concern yourself with Charles''s wedding. I have told you that I can take care of it. What are you doing


    now?"


    "Charles is my son. Why shouldn''t I care about his wedding? Who did you choose?!" Mrs. Thomas was


    stillpletely unable to keep calm.


    "I have chosen her. Who is the master in this family? Are you qualified to decide Charles''s life


    decisions?" Mr. Thomas said assertively.


    Mrs. Thomas ground her teeth but could think of no way to refute him. Atst, she picked up her bag


    and said, "Whatever happens, I will never call you my daughter-inw." Finishing her words, she turned


    and left the room.

    Sarah didn''t know what to do; after all, everything had somehow been caused by her. Then she said to


    Mr. Thomas, "I''m sorry. Maybe I am not an eligible daughter-inw. It seems that I can''t even respect


    my future mother-inw."


    Mr. Thomas sighed and smiled, "It doesn''t matter. Christina has been a certain way from a young age.


    She can''t tolerate others challenging her. It''s natural to argue with her, I know it is not your fault. I saw


    your spirit from your conversation just now. Your persistence solidified my faith in you. Charles really


    has chosen a wonderful woman!"


    "Are you joking? I felt so guilty!" Sarah answered.


    Mr. Thomas patted her shoulderfortingly. "You''ve done well. I support you. You must be with


    Charles. It would ease my mind to know that you can take care of yourself. Can you do it? Sometimes,


    Charles is like a child. He is possessive about things that he cares about. So, he may sometimes do


    you wrong and cause you great upset in the future. Are you willing to forgive him when he behaves like


    that?"


    Sarah looked up at him and replied humbly, "Thank you so much for your support. I am moved. As for


    Charles, I will always care for him as best as I can and cherish the chance to be with him. I will try my


    best to tolerate his faults. I will try never to disappoint you."


    Mr. Thomas nodded and smiled. "Actually, if you can trust each other, nothing is impossible. I believe


    that you can do it." Mr. Thomas was unaware now of just how much trouble his teachings of tolerance


    would cause for Charles and Sarah''s marriage in the future.
