Love At The Wrong Table

Chapter 1721 Sarah’s Story
“Years ago, an agreement was reached between the Saintess and the Holy Trinity. Until her daughter came of age, the Holy
Trinity was not allowed to touch her. But the Holy Trinity needed the name of the Saintess to consolidate the faith of hundreds of
thousands of people and end the internal strife. So I was brought to Yeringham by the Queen of the Dark Night Islands and
became Mackenzie’s substitute.
“My fate was predetermined long ago. When the Saintess returned, I became worthless. But I have been the Saintess for over
twenty years, with significant merits and a group of faithful believers. After the failed mission in Yeringham, I was confined here,
continuing to do some trivial tasks for the organization just to prove my remaining value...”
After listening to Sarah’s story, Emmanuel neither doubted nor fully believed her. He simply asked seriously, “Are you truly willing
to betray the Holy Trinity to help me? Have you thought through the consequences?”
Sarah turned around, spreading her hands with a smile. “Emmanuel, look at me now, living in such ugliness on this dark island.
Does my life have any meaning left? The promise you’ve given me is my best hope. As long as I can leave with you and restore
my appearance, I’m willing to give everything.”
Her words were sincere, and Emmanuel couldn’t find any fault in her reasoning.
“Sarah, I trust you.” He walked up to her, gently placing his hand on her shoulder, staring into her eyes. “After we leave this
place, I will definitely restore you to the beautiful woman you once were!”
Sarah smiled. Her smile was gorgeous.
The next moment, she couldn’t help but tightly hug Emmanuel, crying,
“Emmanuel, thank you! Since I can remember, I’ve known I was just a tool. It’s when I’m with you that life only feels meaningful.”
Though Emmanuel sympathized with her background, he still pulled her out of his embrace. “Since you still see me as your
brother–in–law, I’ll treat you as Mackenzie’s sister. We can be close but not intimate. I only love your sister.”
Sarah cried and then laughed. She sincerely sighed, “I envy that woman so much; she takes everything good! As for me, I can
only live in her shadow forever!”

“Don’t think like that!” Emmanuel quickly comforted her, gently holding her shoulders. “You’re still young, with a long life ahead.
There are plenty of better men than me out there. When we leave here, I can find you a suitable husband to start a new life with.”
Sarah laughed again, taking a while before she nodded with an affirmed
“Mm.”
In front of others, she was a woman with deep scheming, but in front of Emmanuel, she was just a naive sister–in–law.
“Oh, by the way, do you know where Claudette is?”
Emmanuel certainly wouldn’t miss this opportunity. He came here for punishment with this purpose, never expecting things to go
so smoothly.
“I do!” Sarah deliberately teased with a mischievous grin. “You asked the right person!”
“Really? Please tell me!” Emmanuel asked nervously.
“Okay, but Emmanuel, you must promise me one condition!” Sarah deliberately acted coy.
“What is it?” Emmanuel hurriedly asked.
“You must keep me company here every three days. You can only imagine how bored I am here.”
Emmanuel thought Sarah’s current demeanor somehow resembled Beatrix’s.
However, she was the former Saintess. She couldn’t have possibly also discarded the dignity of the Saintess along with the title,
could she?
“Sarah, didn’t you just nod and indicate that you understood what I meant? I am your brother–in–law.” Emmanuel sighed slightly,
annoyed.
“Hmph, I don’t care!” Sarah said angrily. “I’m not a Quillen, and I have no blood relationship with Mackenzie! You can treat me as
a sister–in–law as you please, but until you find me a suitable man, I’m going to cling to you. How about that?”
Emmanuel was rendered speechless. It took him quite a while to finally agree to her conditions in order to find Claudette.

“Alright, I’ll tell you everything!” Sarah immediately smiled. “She’s in the laboratory on the fifth floor. She might be like me now, in
her birthday suit.’
