Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

Sarah didn't answer right away, she tried to adjust her expression to look sad but not too much.

She herself didn't know since when she could act like this. Was it because pretending to still be Michael's wife made her like this?

"The news said you were dating that woman," Sarah said, deliberately not mentioning Anna's name.

Without needing to mention it, Michael immediately understood who the woman was referring to.

Michael fell silent hearing Sarah's words. It was true, he didn't know how the media found out that he was dating Anna, but that's what the media said.

"What will happen if you suddenly introduce me as your wife? Even though it's only been a few days since your dating news came out," Sarah continued, explaining the reason why Michael couldn't tell people that she was his wife.

Actually, Sarah was surprised that she could think of this excuse. She didn't think Michael's scandal could help her.

Michael was silent when he heard Sarah's words, his face looked a little surprised to hear that.

So this was the reason why his wife said it was to protect him.

But… Come to think of it, after the scandal came out, people seemed to be treating him like normal and not a bastard who cheated on his wife.

Ah! Right! The public knows that he is single and unmarried!

Did Sarah know about it?

"Then, do you…"

"Do you want to accept my condition or not?" Sarah cut in suddenly, her voice sounding a little impatient. "If you promise not to tell anyone at the party about me being your wife, I will immediately get ready. Otherwise, I'll go take a shower and rest."

Michael was silent, staring at the face of his wife who was waiting for an answer from him. His head then slowly nodded, agreeing to his wife's condition.

Although right now he couldn't introduce Sarah as his wife to everyone due to his own stupidity choosing to have an affair, he could go to public events with his wife.

At least, the two of them could go together as a couple.

***

Sarah couldn't stop breathing in and out. She had a tense expression on her face.

Had she made the right decision to come with Michael at an event like this?

What if something happened? Or worse, Michael broke his promise and told people that she was Michael's wife.

Sarah immediately came back to her senses from her excessive thoughts when the door car next to her was opened by someone, Michael's handsome face smiling while wearing a suit immediately greeted her. The man reached out his hand to help her get out of the car, like a gentleman.

Sarah took another breath, trying to calm herself down. When she calmed down, she took Michael's hand and got out of the car.

"Don't worry! I will not introduce you as my wife!" said Michael gently when he saw the worried expression on his wife's face.

If he had told people that he had a wife after the scandal that time. Then he will be hit by scandal again. This time he will be branded as a bastard who cheated on his wife.

Even though it was a fact because he did, it seemed his wife wanted to protect him.

He had a good wife who was so worried about him, but he cheated on her and let the media know about his affair.

He really is stupid!

Sarah just smiled when she heard Michael's words. Even though Michael in the past was a bastard, the current Michael was a good man. It seemed she could trust this man.

The two of them then immediately got into the hotel elevator and headed to the place where the wedding ceremony was held.

Meanwhile, after Michael and Sarah got into the car. A car was seen entering the hotel parking lot and was looking for an empty place to park the car. As soon as the car was parked, a woman wearing a gold dress got out of the car.

"I hope everything is okay. Diana said that only a few of the media are coming tonight," the woman thought and took a deep breath and headed for the hotel elevator. She could only hope she didn't ruin her friend's wedding because of the gossip about her.

***

As soon as Michael and Sarah entered the room, it seemed like the ceremony had started. They did arrive a little late because Sarah had to get ready, and not to mention Michael forced her to wear a red dress, even though Sarah wanted to wear a black dress at first.

"Red looks sexy. You should wear the red one!"

Sarah ended up putting on the red dress when she saw that Michael wouldn't give up on persuading her to wear the red dress.

She almost forgot that the man was a red lover, she remembered one day Michael had bought her red lingerie, and Michael loved it when she finally put it on.

"Wow! You look so gorgeous! You are so beautiful, wifey!"

Sarah smiled shyly when she saw the stunned Michael and didn't stop staring at her. Luckily she managed to distract Michael a bit by saying they would be late. Otherwise, Sarah knows what will happen next. The look in the man's eyes was full of passion!

***

"How about sitting there?" whispered Michael when he finally found an empty seat in the middle.

The whole place seemed to be full, the place was arranged with a round table with eight chairs surrounding the table.

Sarah was silent for a moment, before finally nodding her head. Even though she was a little awkward having to join the six people who had already filled the table, there seemed to be no other choice.

"Is this place empty?" Michael asked when they were near the table.

"Mr. Collins? Yes! It's empty here! It's an honor that you want to sit with us," said one of the men sitting there, who seemed to know Michael.

Michael just put on a faint smile, then pulled out the chair for Sarah. After his wife sat down, he finally sat down on the only empty seat left.

"Are you okay? Not cold?" whispered Michael when he realized that the temperature in the room was colder than he thought.

The red dress Sarah was wearing was an off shoulder mermaid dress, leaving her shoulders exposed and nothing to warm her.

"I'm fine, thanks," Sarah whispered softly.

"Your partner looks very beautiful tonight, Mr Collins," said one of the men, who began to make small talk.

If he could get close to Michael tonight, maybe they could work together later. It was a great opportunity because Michael Collins sat down with them.

"Of course!" Michael replied with a proud expression then turned to Sarah with a loving look. Tonight, his wife is very beautiful!

Too bad he couldn't introduce her as his wife.

Sarah just blushed at the compliment.

"Oh right, I..."

Before the man could introduce himself, the voice of the emcee began to be heard and attracted people's attention.

"Okay! Next we will hear the welcome greetings from our happy newlyweds tonight!"

After saying that, the emcee walked up and gave his microphone to the groom and bride who had stood up and prepared to give their welcome greetings.

Seeing the groom who started to give his welcome greeting, Michael's face immediately smiled, he suddenly remembered when he was in that position. He then immediately turned to Sarah and brought his face closer.

"Wifey, do you remember it? Our wedding," Michael whispered.

Sarah's face involuntarily smiled when she heard that. Even though their wedding was not as extravagant as this, Sarah remembered it. She once smiled happily like the expression shown by the bride in front of her.

"At that time we chose to have a simple wedding," commented Michael.

"Yes," Sarah replied curtly, then started clapping when the bride and groom had finished giving their greetings.

After that, it was time to eat. The time everyone has been waiting for! This time the party served the food in a buffet style so that guests could take their own food.

While they were eating, the people had tried to get Michael to talk, and Michael replied curtly even though he couldn't remember who they were. Every now and then, Michael turned to Sarah who was enjoying her food in silence.

Suddenly, Michael started to stand up and took off the suit he was wearing, making those who could see Michael stare at him with confused looks.

Why did the man suddenly take off his suit? Doesn't he want to get food on his suit because it's so expensive?

But the next second, they smiled at Michael's behavior, especially the woman sitting at the table when they saw what Michael was doing. For a moment, their hearts skip a beat.

Sarah, who was eating, immediately turned around when she felt something touch her shoulder. It's a suit. She then turned to Michael and saw that the man was only wearing his shirt.

At first, Sarah had been able to endure the slightly cooler temperature of the room than usual, but the longer she was here, the coldness became unbearable.

Sarah even purposely took some warm soup, thinking it would help her deal with her chills, but it didn't seem like it was enough and her body couldn't lie.

Did Michael pay attention to her so he would know she was cold at the moment? But hadn't Michael been talking to another businessman earlier?

She didn't know how Michael knew it, but Sarah was grateful that her body was starting to feel warm now, and so was her heart.
