Chapter 124 Back to the Office


    It was a good thing that the phone indeed was overdue in its fees.


    “I owed thirty cents, listen.”


    Sarah knows that he will be suspicious and already deleted the iing call records. She showed him


    and he took over and paused.


    “Okay, I’ll put in ten thousand, enough?”


    Sarah was shocked, ten thousand in one payment?


    “No, one thousand is ok.”


    She probably used a thousand yuan worth of calls a year. How long will ten thousandst?


    Andrew’s phone bills cost unbelievably high. Long-distance calls…


    “Okay, Sandy will do itter.”


    At this moment, a message came, “Stored value remaining, 999.70.”


    Andrew seemed to believe and didn’t ask any more about the phone and went back to the previous


    topic.


    “Seeing that you are so bored and want to go back to the office, then have a good chat with


    grandfather. It’s useless telling me. He will certainly not agree.”


    “But… I feel that I can’t convince grandfather, how should I say it?”


    Andrew looked at her and hooked his finger, she went over…


    …


    A few minutester, Sarah came to Andrew’s grandfather’s study.


    She knocked twice on the door and called out to Andrew’s grandfather before opening the door.


    “Come in.”


    The study was a little dark. In the afternoon, the light on the south side was adsorbed by the curtains. It


    wasn’t ring but a little too dark.


    Andrew’s grandfather gently pushed the curtains to allow in more light and to allow her to see better.


    Sarah took each step carefully, worried that she may trip over, until she reached Andrew’s grandfather


    and stopped.


    “Grandfather.”


    “Sit.” Andrew’s grandfather pointed to a ck colored chair behind her. Sarah nodded and sat down.


    Courteous and humble.


    “What’s the matter?”


    At this moment, she realized that she was wrong. This was grandfather’s afternoon nap time and she


    suddenly budged in.


    Grandfathery down on an automatic rocking chair his hands sped over his chest. His eyes were


    still shut and rxed. She was thinking had she note, he should already be asleep.


    She steeled herself since she was already here and leaving wouldn’t achieve anything. Sarah said,


    “grandfather, I would like to go to the office. I’m very bored at home. Everyday being cooped up at


    home isn’t good for the baby’s development.”


    Immediately, Sarah could see grandfather’s eyes opened and looked at her.


    She was a little nervous.


    “Go to the office? Is that your wish?”


    It looked like he was suspicious that it was Andrew’s idea.


    Sarah immediately nodded, “grandfather, it’s really my wish, my idea. Please don’t think too much into


    it.”


    Grandfather sighed and squinted his eyes and said calmly, “Isn’t it better at home? Since you are


    pregnant, you should rest at home.”


    “Grandfather, it’s not that different outside. Isn’t it the same at the office and at home? Now the office’s


    regtions are female staff can take maternity leave in the eighth month. I’m not even two months


    pregnant. It’s not good to hole myself up here. If I go outside, I’ll be able to increase my immunity.”


    Grandfather didn’t react to what she said.


    Seeing that these words weren’t effective and Sarah thought of what Andrew told her.


    “Grandfather, you can let me stay at home but let Andrew go back to the office. There is so much to be


    done. Since I’m at home, I don’t need him to take care of me.”


    “Don’t think that you can fool me, I know fully well whether thepany is busy or not.”


    “…”


    What else can she say?


    Sarah was at a loss.


    Suddenly, she thought about it!


    “Grandfather, how about this? Since you don’t let me go to the office, then I’ll not go out. In the future


    let the doctorse to our home. All those machines, bring them in and customize for me. This will be


    fair.”


    Sarah’s words infuriated Grandfather and he frowned, “Nonsense!”


    These are hospital equipment, how can theye to the house?


    He looked at Sarah’s abdomen and shook his head helplessly. “Okay, I can’t argue with you. But at four


    months pregnant, you must remain at home. If you are at the office when your abdomen is more


    obvious, it will be inconvenient for Andrew to work.”


    She was already very happy with this even though it was just for two months. She’ll treat it as satisfying


    an urge.


    “Okay grandfather, I promise you. I’m so grateful to you.”


    “No need, it’s all for the great-grandson,” Grandfather said sincerely.


    Sarah’s smirk turned into self-mocking smile.


    “Then I won’t interrupt your afternoon nap any further. Goodbye.”


    “Hold on.”


    Grandfather had some questions for her.


    Sarah turned around. He asked, “The agreement was exposed?”


    This was the secret between them that they had agreed.


    “No, Andrew doesn’t know.”


    Sarah answered with conviction.


    “Okay, that’s good. Do what you must do, everything must be ording to the original goals.”


    ording to the agreement, it’s best to achieve the goals of each party.


    Sarah gently bit down on her lips until it hurt before easing off.


    “Sarah, regarding matters of the heart, don’t force it. You still have time and you may do as you wish. In


    the end, I hope that you can see clearly when you leave.”


    If you get too deeply involved, you will be more miserable.


    Andrew’s grandfather was straight to the point. As he reminded her, he also told her that even if they


    are not suitable together, it was worth an act to behave like a loving couple.


    “Grandfather, please rest assured that I understand your reminder.”


    She needed to be clear and not be clouded that in the end, what’s not hers, then it wasn’t hers.


    She excused herself and left the room. When the room closed, Sarah was deted and sat on the


    ground.


    Her shoulders felt heavy like she was being weighed down by something until she found it difficult to


    breathe.


    The suffocation was hard to endure like it was hidden between her fingers.


    She covered her face with her hands and the shadows covered her eyes. The boundless darkness of


    the sky was like the anxiety within her heart.


    …


    The next day, Sarah and Andrew appeared at the Andrew Group. This time they arrived together.


    “Go in together?”


    Andrew asked her with a hand stretched out.


    Sarah looked for half a day and shook her head, “Forget it, I’ll follow behind you like Sandy.”


    At the end at the entrance, she was carried up and her t shoes were handed to Sandy, Andrew


    “What … my shoes…”


    At the main door, everyone looked like they’ve seen a ghost. Andrew actually carried his secretary into


    the office?


    Those women whispered, “See! Didn’t I say? This woman used unscrupulous means to get to her


    position. She became the director’s secretary as soon as she came in. How despicable!”


    “Slut, our director has been tainted! How infuriating!”

    “How shameful to let the director carry her in! Slut!”
