Chapter 517
For a moment, he thought he saw the study light switch on, and Sarah walking in gently, placing a steaming cup
of coffee on his desk. "What are you doing?"
He blinked, about to show her the album, when he heard his past self speak, "Working. Haven't | told you not to
disturbwhen I'm working?"
James wanted to protest, but Sarah was already stammering, "I'm sorry, | shouldn't have disturbed you."
The memory sent a sharp pain through his heart. For three years of marriage, this was how he'd spoken to her,
every single day.
Just remembering it once was unbearable now.
How must Sarah have felt, enduring this for three years? Maybe he should give up swounds couldn't be
healed.
The scene shifted, the door opening again.
"James, my cousin sent stea. | don't know much about tea, but | thought you might like them." She placed

He knew the tea's value, knew she'd brought it specially for him.
He wanted to say, "Thank you, Sasa. I'll enjoy it."
But before he could, his past self spoke again, "Take it away. | don't drink tea."
For three years, he'd constantly rejected Sarah's kindness, trampling her genuine affection. Only now did he
realize those crushed feelings hadn't disappeared - they'd been etched into his heart, one cut at a time.
These memories now felt like daggers striking his heart.
No matter how guilty he felt, his remorse couldn't compare to Sarah's current coldness toward him.
He clutched his chest, the pain almost physical.
For days, Sarah was all he could think about. He'd even stopped worrying about Charlotte. A terrifying realization
had hit him - he'd truly fallen in love with Sarah.
The more he thought about it, the harder it was to control these feelings. He loved her so much he wished he
could turn back time.
If he could turn back time, he'd treat Sarah right, never let those things happen.
But what if Charlotte appeared again? He sank into thought. He couldn't afford to wait anymore.
At the Sanders house, Sarah was having dinner. The housekeeper had made all her favorites today - probably on
Melvin's orders.
Just as she finished and was about to leave, someone arrived.
"Sasa dear, why aren't you eating at home? I've missed you so." Amanda walked in.
Sarah forced an awkward smile. "Aunt Amanda, what brings you here?"

"No need. I'm renovating an apartment. I'll move there once it's ready."
Amanda paused. "That works too."
