"Mr. Thomas, I…" Sarah didn't know how to answer. She had only just made up her mind that she wouldn't be with Charles any longer. However, to her surprise, Mr. Thomas was now trying to persuade her to accept Charles. Sarah could feel her head spinning as she tried to make sense of it all.
Mr. Thomas smiled and said, "Sarah, don't you love my son?"
Sarah didn't know what to say, so she looked down, embarrassed. She didn't know how to express her love for Charles in front of his father.
"Sarah, I can assure you that my son loves you. I can protect you from any upset that may come of your relationship. Now it's all up to you. You've seen Charles up there in the hospital. Surely you can tell how much he loves you?"
