Ex-wife, Please Come Back -
Chapter 210 Cornered
"What?" Sara was shocked. She could imagine everything in a flash. She could imagine why Chole had been so sad and desperate for so many years. She understood why was Jim so optimistic in Chole's eyes. Jacob's eyes widened. He didn't expect that Chole had had such tragic experience. It turned out that everything Chole said that day was not groundless.
It turned out that all the sad stories were true. Jacob's heart sank. He felt as if his heart was twisted by someone.
"At that time, he insisted on being with me regardless of everyone's objection. He said I was a good girl and he wouldn't let me down. He has never failed me in his life, but I always lose my temper because of all kinds of trifles."
Chole took the tissue handed over by Sara. She wanted to tell the world what a good person Jim was. She couldn't allow anyone to slander or frame Jim.
"At the beginning, I didn't know that I couldn't give birth to children. But as time went by, rumors began to spread in my village. Soon people began to say that I'm a hen which cannot lay eggs. Jim was angry, but he didn't know how to do. Finally he couldn't resist the threat of his family, so we went to the hospital for examination. "
Chole stared blankly at the ceiling, her eyes empty and dull. It never occurred to Sara that someone could be so expressionless when she talked about her tragic fate.
"Back to that time, I was very confident. I always believed that it was the problem of time for us to give birth, so I went to the examination without hesitation. But Jim didn't agree. He said there was no need to have such examination. I, however, was stubborn. I have to go." Chole would never forget the day when she went for the examination. She had always been optimistic and positive. Perhaps from that day, she had become completely different. Everyone's life was like a soap opera, but some were comedy, and some were tragedy. It was hard to explain.
Pursing her lips, Sara looked at Chole and wanted to cry. She had never believed that such tragedy would really happen in real life.
"I remember the day when I took the hospital notice, I felt like being sentenced to death. I don't know why he doesn't agree to have a check-up. He might think that no matter who was the one had sterility, it would be unacceptable. What he fears most was that I would blame myself if I was the one with the problem.
Love filled in the eyes of Chole. If there was anything worth celebrating in her miserable life, it was that she met Jim, the most important man in her life.
If it weren't for Jim, her life would have been more miserable.
"Since then, I have become pessimistic. Maybe you can't understand my feelings. Some couples choose to be DINK, but they still have the choice. There is huge difference between choose not to have child and couldn't have child." Chole smiled bitterly. She hadn't told anyone about this for many years. They came to the city without friends or relatives.
They only had each other.
"Haven't you ever thought about medical treatment?" There was a flash of expectation in Sara's eyes. Then she realized that if the treatment was effective, she would not stand in front of Chole today.
"At first, Jim took me everywhere for treatment. We didn't have much money at home. After going to doctor for one year, my problem was still there. At that time, my mother-in-law asked Jim to divorce me, because they can't stand the rumors of their neighbors in the countryside anymore.
Bitterness spread from the corner of her mouth to the air. Perhaps there was no solution for her illness, so they were forced to a dead end step by step.
Until there was no way out, they began to sacrifice. Death was the only way to get rid of the dilemma.
"Jim had a quarrel with his family and took me out of the countryside to work in the city. This is unforgivable in our village, so we have cut off contact with everyone in our hometown since then. But the situation was not getting better." Chole coughed slightly. She didn't know if it was her lung discomfort that made her feel stuffy.
"You are very lucky to meet such a man who give up his family for you in that situation." Tears welled up from Sara's eyes. She had never expected that there would be such a good man in the world. Few people could do this, but Jim had done it and insisted for the rest of his life.
It might not be difficult to love a woman like this for one year, but it was too difficult to hold on for a lifetime. It's difficult to insist on doing anything for one's whole life.
"Yes, I'm very lucky. But I also feel painful. I always think that a good man like him shouldn't be dragged down by me. So on the day we came to the city, I was ready to leave him. " Chole forced a smile. She didn't expect that she would talk about this with a smile one day. "You left him?" Sara was shocked. Jim would be desperate if he had lost Chole, which was the only thing left for him in this world.
"But I didn't really want to leave him. I just followed him secretly and watched him looking for me crazily everywhere in the city. At that time, I changed my mind. After I appeared before him, he said that I could never leave him again."
Chole smiled with satisfaction. Perhaps he had never left her, or perhaps he was looking at her in the air.
"You are so lucky." Tears streamed down Sara's face. The luckier she was in the past, the more painful she is now. Jim was a good man, but fate didn't treat him well.
"It's hard for us to take root in this city. He has tried many jobs and entered many factories. He had done chores, moved bricks and done all kinds of heavy works. He just didn't want me to do heavy work, so I'm working as a cashier in the supermarket till now. My work is easy, but my salary is not high.
Chole touched her throat gently. She had talked too much that her throat was a little dry.
"Well, drink some water." Sara took a glass of water and handed it to Chole.
"Thank you." Chole took over the glass expressionlessly. Maybe she wanted to smile, but she couldn't.
At this moment, she didn't even had the strength to cry. How could she smile?
After drinking the water gently, Chole felt a little better. Maybe telling the truth was a good way to relieve her depression. However, she didn't normally have such opportunities. She didn't often have the mood to talk about such things either.
"But I'm still pessimistic. I began to worry about gains and losses. I began to think that maybe Jim would abandon me one day. Maybe he treated me so well just because he had met a new woman outside, so he felt guilty to me. That's why he treated me so well. " "Women tend to be swayed by considerations of gain and loss. It's not your fault."
"But I still feel that I was stupid. I was really stupid. He was such a sincere man who loved me so much. I just couldn't stop thinking too much. In the end, he changed a lot of jobs because of my rude and unreasonable behavior. But no matter how aggrieved he was, he never complained to me. He was the best man I have ever seen. "
"Yes, I agree on that." Nodding, Sara held the other hand tightly. If it weren't for Sara, Sara wouldn't believe that there was such a good man in the world, and that he was living an ordinary life.
"In the end, he entered the factory of the Shi Group. He had planned to work for a few more years here. Then we could buy a land in the countryside and build a house of our own and spend the rest of our lives. God knows such disaster should happen to us. He wouldn't die if it weren't for me."
Chole thumped her chest in agony and thought, 'It's my fault.".
"So he chose to die for you and get the insurance for you, right?" If that was the case, then this love story was really shocking.
"No, no, it's not like that. He did tried to cure me at the expense of his life, but when I found that I've got the cancer, I told him that if he did anything to sacrifice himself for me, I will go with him. "
Chole's face returned to calm. Perhaps today was the most expressive day for her in so many years. She couldn't believe that she could show so many different expressions on her face. She thought she had suffered facioplegia since the moment she knew that she was infertile.000000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
