Chapter 58 Christian’s Acciden

“What’s wrong with this wheelchair? Is it broken?” Military Commander Myers looked at the wheelchair beside Christian and asked in confusion.

“Yes, the chair was accidentally soaked. It’s broken.”

“Do you need me to buy you a new one?”

“No need! I only need these crutches.”

While the two were talking, Sarah carried the teapot back to the tea table and poured a cup of hot tea for Military Commander Myers before sitting beside Christian.

“No bad!” Military Commander Myers took a sip and nodded with a smile. Then he looked at Sarah, “You are called Sarah Wilson, I will call you Sarah, right?”

“Yes.” Sarah nodded her head. She felt that this chief’s attitude was kind and very amiable.

“Christian is our hero commander. Sometimes he has a little temper, but he is definitely a good person. If he bullies you in the future, come to me. I will support you and teach him a lesson!” Military Commander Myers said with a smile.

Sarah heard Military Commander Myers words and could not help but laugh. “Thank you, Chief!”

“This is your first time coming to the army, right?”

“Yes, I’ve been thinking about what the army looks like in the past. I didn’t think that I would be really come this time.” Sarah replied with a smile.

“Haha! How do you feel about this place?”

“Very good! I feel that the sky here is especially blue and the mountains are especially green. Even the air here feels fresh. This place is completely different from the outside world.”

“Right! This place is far away from the urban area, and there are no different types of pollution. Once you get used to living here, you won’t be want to go back. You just arrived yesterday, so you should get familiar with your surroundings in the next two days. If there’s anything you don’t like, you must say it loud.”

“Thank you, Chief!”

“It’s already very good that Christian’s legs can be restored to their current state. Christian, the specialist I contacted you earlier will be here in two days. He will give you another check-up. This time, your leg will recover as soon as possible!”

Christian smiled. “Thank you, commander.”

“I came in a hurry today and didn’t bring anything with me. There are still some ginseng and some good stuff stored by your sister-in-law. I will get someone to send it to you tomorrow.”

“You should keep it for yourself. We also brought some at home.”

“What? You don’t like my things, do you?” Commander Myers raised his brows and pretended to be angry as he glared at Christian.

“Sure. Then you can give it to me! Send more!” Christian smiled.

“Haha! Stinking brat, are you pretending to be me?” Military Commander Myers laughed heartily when he heard Christian’s words.

Commander Myers chatted with the two of them for a while. When he saw it was almost time, she stood up and left. Sarah sent him to the door.

Commander Myers looked at her and smiled. “Sarah, you can give me a ride!”

Sarah smiled and nodded. She followed him out the door. After walking out the unit for more than ten meters, Commander Myers stopped. He turned around and looked at Sarah.

“Do you know how Christian’s leg was injured?”

Sarah shook her head. “I don’t know.”

He had never told her about this, and she had never thought about asking him.

Commander Myers sighed, and his expression was a little heavy. “Didn’t a snow disaster happen in the south of December this year? Christian was injured in that snow disaster.”

“He was a Regimental Commander, and he lived and ate with the soldiers. He was always at the front of everything. Originally, he wouldn’t have been injured. At that time, they had gone to the outskirts to repair the wires. Because the wind was too strong, a fellow villager who was in the process of repairing the wires was almost hit by the pole that fell down.”

“If it wasn’t for Christian pouncing over… That villager’s life would definitely be in danger. However, when Christian fell to the ground, the pole still hit his legs.”

“Because the traffic there was completely paralyzed, he did not receive timely treatment the moment he got injured. When he was sent to the hospital, the doctor almost cut off his legs. So the half a year was a kind of torture for him.”

“If a soldier could not stand up for the rest of his life… That would be even more painful than killing him. Fortunately, his legs were much better now and he could feel them now. He can also use some strength now.”

Commander Myers took a long breath and looked at Sarah gratefully. “I saw you today. I was happy from the bottom of my heart. Sarah, I won’t say anything but I thank you on behalf of the entire military camp!”

Commander Myers suddenly raised his hand and saluted Sarah solemnly.

“Commander…” Sarah was at a loss when she saw such a big chief salute her.

Commander Myers looked at her and reminded her. “Don’t have any psychological burdens. Christian’s legs will recover very soon. I know this process is very difficult for you, but trust me!” Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Military Commander Myers took out a business card from his pocket and handed private number. No matter what kind of difficulties you encounter in your life, you can call me!”

“Thank you, Chief!” Sarah immediately received it gratefully.

“It should be us thanking you. Thank you for marrying Christian in such a time. Alright, I won’t say any more pretentious words. You can go back. I’m leaving.” Military Commander Myers waved his hand at her with a smile, turned around and walked towards the side of the car.

Sarah watched Commander Myers leave. She watched the car slowly disappear, then turned around and went back to the house. She put the business card away in her pocket before entering the house.

“Commander left?” Christian was fiddling with the walking stick. He supported himself with his hand, wanting to test his arm.

Sarah nodded and looked at his legs. She thought about what Commander Myers said and suddenly understood what he had done to her in the past.

Maybe he was really too depressed!

“What did he say to you?” Christian put the crutch beside and looked up at her.

Sarah smiled and shook her head. “He didn’t say anything. He said to take good care of you in the future. Your chief is so nice.”

Christian smiled. “I am the soldier he brought out with his own hands. He is the one who cared about me the most in the past six months. He went around looking for doctors and experts for me.”

“Your legs will definitely recover!” Sarah looked at him and said sincerely.

“You want me to recover?”

Sarah looked at him. “Didn’t I tell you? I don’t have a deep grudge with you, so why don’t I want you to recover?”

After she finished speaking, she walked to the spot beside him and squatted down. She reached out and lifted his leg and placed it on the sofa. “I’ll give you a massage.”

Christian did not refuse and allowed her small hands to press back legs. His pair of bottomless eyes were slightly moving.

Ever since he had lunch with Sarah and Kendall, David though of what Kendall said and felt that something was not right.

What did her words mean?

These two days, he really wanted to call Sarah and ask her how she was doing in army. Christian’s personality was so cold. Was he good to her or not?

But the moment he found her number, he hesitated. No matter what, she was someone else’s wife.

But what did Kendall’s words mean? Could it be that… Three months later, Sarah would divorce Christian?

When it was almost noon, David though about it and called Kendall. When Kendall heard David wanted to have a meal with her, she quickly agreed. She took a taxi and directly headed towards his restaurant.

When the taxi stopped, Kendall saw that David was standing at the parking lot. He kept pacing back and forth. After paying the dare, she quickly ran over.

David greeted her and brought her to a luxurious private room. They ordered the dishes and David asked the waiter to leave.

“Mr. David, why did you call me here so urgently? Is there something you need?” Kendall looked at him with anticipation. She did not know if he liked her too.

“Ahem, since you are Sarah’s friend, I will get straight to the point. When the three of us had dinner that day, I heard you say that Sarah and Christian would go their separate ways after three months. I want to know what it means. Is there something Sarah hiding something from me?”

Hearing that he was asking about Sarah, Kendall was somewhat disappointed. After thinking for a moment, she looked at him with difficultly. “I cannot casually say this kind of thing.”

“Why can’t you say it casually? It seems like she really has something to hide from me. I was too careless, I should have asked back then!” David regretted it. Why didn’t he ask her before letting her leave?

Kendall looked at him, pursed her lips and was silent. “Mr. David, do you like Sarah?”

David looked at her and picked up the glass and drank a mouthful. He didn’t avoid this topic. “Yes, I like her. This time I came back to marry her! But I didn’t expect that I would still be a step too late!” At the end of his sentence, his eyes darkened.

Kendall smiled disappointedly, “Sarah is so lucky…”

“Tell me the truth, what do you mean by they will separate in three months?” David asked anxiously.

Seeing his anxious look, Kendall was at a loss of words for a moment. She then lowered her head. “Sorry…”

There were some things she could not say!

There were some things she did not want to say either!

David looked at her sincerely. Then he suddenly stood up. “Alright, sorry for troubling you today. You can eat. I’ll leave first.”

Kendall nervously stood up to stop him. “Where are you going?”

“I’m going to find Sarah. I must find out what is going on.” After saying that, he strode towards the door, without looking back.

Kendall heard his words and bit her lips. Looking his figure quickly disappear at the door, she hesitated and finally chased after him.

“Mr. David, please stop! I will tell you everything!”
