Chapter 133 Love Can Solve All Difficulties
Sarah said, "I've been swamped lately and just haven't had the time to see you."
Robert said, "I've got something juicy about Margaret. Don't you wanna know?"
Sarah asked, "What happened to Margaret?"
"If you wanna find out, come see me and dress up nice. We're gonna have some fun tonight," Robert teased before hanging up.
That night, Sarah dolled up and headed to the resort. After navigating the winding entrance,she finally found Robert, wearing glasses and sporting a lecherous grin, in the secluded hot spring.
Robert had her change into a bikini. She wasn't thrilled about it but went along, thinking she was about to uncover Margaret's secret.
When Robert saw her standing by the pool with her long, slender legs, he got all excited and pulled her into the water.
Warm water splashed all over Sarah's face. Before she could react, Robert eagerly pulled her into his arms, kissing her neck.
Sarah felt grossed out, her skin crawling. Instinctively, she tried to push him away, but he sneered. "Sarah, you only get all flirty when you need something from me. But when I ask you to hook up, you always blow me off."
"No, I've just been super busy," Sarah smiled seductively, touching his face with her fingers. "Tell me first, what happened to Margaret."
Robert grinned wickedly, "If you wanna know, it depends on your performance. Sarah, sit on my lap."
Sarah said, "You tell me first."
Robert said, "Don't you trust me? How many things have I done for you? I even helped you with Ashley's death, didn't I? Sarah, we're already in this together. Don't think you can ditch me! I've got recordings of every time we've hooked up. If Raymond finds out how many times you've been with me, will he still want you? Can you still become Raymond's wife?"
Robert bit her earlobe, warning, "So, if you're smart, you'll keep this thing going with me. Even if you become Raymond's wife, you gotta come whenever I call!"
Sarah clenched her fists, her nails digging into her palms. Her involvement with Robert started when Ashley crashed into the Eldoria railing and committed suicide.
Worried that Ashley might wake up and spill everything, she made a deal with Robert.
Robert went to the hospital where Ashley was being treated and secretly added a drug to induce shock, making it seem like Ashley didn't survive the critical period.
She had given Robert $2.5 million, but she hadn't expected this jerk to cling to her and want to keep this long-term thing going.
Sarah was smart and knew not to fall out with Robert now. She suppressed her displeasure and touched the hem of his robe underwater.
She sat on his lap directly. She was moving on top of him, and Robert was lost in the pleasure. But her eyes showed a murderous intent.
How could she be threatened by Robert! Once Sarah used Robert to eliminate all threats to her, she would get rid of him without hesitation!
Sarah pleased Robert for a long time.
Robert made love to Sarah many times before he felt satisfied.
What Sarah didn't know was that Robert had installed a hidden pinhole camera in the corner of the hot spring pool. It was his tool for self-protection. It was also leverage to control Sarah, this seductive woman. Because he had been tangled up in too many of her schemes, if things went south, she might turn on him.

Sarah leaned into his arms, flashing a flattering smile. "Robert, can you tell me now? I worked really hard just now."
"Margaret has a terminal illness," Robert said.
Sarah's eyelids twitched, and she looked at him in surprise. "How do you know?"
Robert roughly recounted what had happened today.
Sarah took off his glasses, kissing his eyes before saying, "So, how do you plan to help me?"
"How do you want me to help you?" Robert pinched her slender waist.
She leaned close to his ear and whispered.
Robert looked at her for a moment, then pointed at her with a sinister smile. "You are reallyruthless and vicious !"
"Men like bad women. Don't you like my ruthless side?" Sarah kissed his lips passionately, saying coyly, "Robert, help me this once. Please."
Robert said, "That depends on your performance, Sarah. Let's change positions and go again?"
Sarah said, "As long as you help me, Robert, you can play however you want. If I don't know how, I can learn."
With that, Sarah wrapped her arms around his waist, working even harder to please him.
Meanwhile, in the apartment, Mary made a bowl of nutritious soup for Margaret and then went out to buy some groceries.
Margaret's heart was increasingly anxious.
These past two days, she had been worried something would happen.
Her unease deepened during the check-up.
As the footsteps grew louder, she looked up to see Raymond, carrying a briefcase, dressed in a dark suit, and wearing glasses, coming upstairs. His face looked grim.
He turned to go into the walk-in closet to change clothes.
"Raymond, did the medical report come out?" Margaret couldn't help but ask. Was his grim face because he saw her report? Was he upset because she was sick?
Raymond's steps halted instantly.
She added, "Wasn't it an expedited result?"
"You're in such a hurry? My child stays in your belly for one more day and you feel aggrieved?" Raymond tilted his head and gave a cold smile.
His tone was mocking. Clearly, she had misunderstood again.
"No, it's just that my body can't hold on any longer." Margaret was about to speak. Suddenly, the phone rang.
He took out his phone, looked at the caller ID, signaled her to be quiet, and then answered the call, walking towards the study.
Margaret heard Alvin's voice on the phone, "Mr. Howard, Mrs. Howard's medical report is out."
Her heart tightened. Did the check-up results come out?
"Hold on a moment!" Raymond seemed to be deliberately avoiding Margaret. He quickened his pace into the study, closed the door, and sat in the leather chair. Alvin on the phone was also waiting for his instructions.
His heart felt heavy, like a stone pressing down. He couldn't imagine his reaction if Margaret really had a terminal illness.
He took a deep breath to relieve the pressure in his heart. "You can speak now," Raymond said in a still cold tone.
