Battling for Love and Winning

Andrew was stunned.

Then, as if hearing a joke, he said, "What nonsense are you talking about, Monica? You should choose your words carefully."

Andrew's words could make me feel like I was falling into an icy cave.

When I looked at him before, my eyes were full of love, but now there was only numbness and disappointment.

Katie could make him give up everything with just one sentence, and no matter how much I say, it would be meaningless to him.

I should have known that.

Katie even sneered with disdain, "Yes, Monica. Even if you are angry with Andrew, you can't curse your mother like this."

No one wanted this to be false more than I did.

I would give anything to bring Sarah back to life.

Perhaps seeing that I looked unhappy, Andrew explained to me for the first time, "After I left that day, I asked Tom to pick her up and put her up in a hotel owned by my family. How could anything happen to Sarah?"

Andrew did ask the driver to pick up Sarah.

But when the driver, Tom, arrived, Sarah had already had an accident.

The accident site was only a few hundred feet away from the service area.

If he had any conscience, this would not have happened if he had left Sarah in the service area.

I didn't want to talk much with him.

But Andrew held me tightly.

He took out his cell phone. "I'll call Tom right now. If you lied to me, you know the consequences."

I didn't care anymore!

He thought he had won and turned on the speakerphone. "Tom, is the person you asked to pick up that day still in the hotel? Let her answer the phone."

Tom was stunned for a moment.

It took him a while to realize that he was talking about Sarah. He sighed and said, "Mr. Wallace, when I arrived, Ms. Turner's mother had already been in a car accident. Although she was taken to the hospital, unfortunately she couldn't be saved in the end. I wanted to tell you, but your call was not connected."
