Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

Chapter 203 We've Been Living Together

Sarah took a deep breath to calm herself. Her heart was beating fast and her hands were drenched in cold sweat. She had never been this nervous before.

"I didn't know you would be this nervous."

Sarah turned to the side when she heard the voice. Michael's smiling face looking at her was immediately seen by her senses of sight.

Sarah just looked at him with a slanted look, ignoring him. Michael might have lied to his father many times, but this was the first time Sarah would ever do that. So that made her nervous!

"Don't worry. You've done this before," Michael said, trying to encourage Sarah. However, Sarah just looked at him with disapproval.

"Ah! Don't get me wrong, I mean, you can act well. That's a compliment," Michael replied, hastily correcting his words.

Why did he suddenly become stupid when he was around this woman? Michael really didn't know. From the first time he saw Sarah again, he could always feel nervous and his brain didn't seem to be working like it used to.

He had no idea that he would be this awkward to meet that woman again, who by the way, still looked absolutely gorgeous.

"Let's go!"

Sarah's voice brought Michael back to his senses, he then nodded and immediately grabbed the doorknob from his father's room.

"Hello, dad!" said Michael walking into it with a big smile on his face.

Mr Collins, who was sleeping, turned his head when he heard his son's voice. His face immediately smiled when he saw the woman behind his son.

Michael snorted seeing that, was his father just happy when he saw Sarah coming?

"Hello, father!" said Sarah with a faint smile. Right now she wanted to pretend to have a close relationship with Michael, so she should still call him father.

"Dad! I'm here too!" said Michael in a half-sulking tone when he saw his father didn't even look at him for a second.

Sarah just shook her head at Michael's attitude, before finally walking over to the old man's bed.

"How are you today?" asked Sarah, still keeping her smile. She even grabbed the old man's hand and grasped it.

"I got better after seeing you," said Mr Collins with a big smile. He then turned to Michael who was standing right next to Sarah.

"Why did you two come here?" he continued curiously.

Michael and Sarah looked at each other when they heard that, Sarah then nodded her head, as if letting out a signal. Michael nodded then looked back at his father.

"We're here to tell you that we've been living together, I think you should know about that," Michael said smoothly. He smiled contentedly in his heart because his words didn't look awkward at all.

"Yes, after our meeting that time, Michael came to me and persuaded me to live with him," Sarah added. "Now we've lived together for three days. We are very busy so we only got to meet you today."

"So you don't have to worry and think about us anymore. I hope you get better soon." Michael smiled contentedly in his heart when he heard his words with Sarah. They didn't practice at all, but she did a great job of helping him.

After this they had to come visit together a few times, showing that the two of them seemed very close and later Sarah could tell his father to change his inheritance, then he would finally get what he wanted.

This is really the perfect plan!

"What nonsense are you guys saying?!" Mr Collins' voice rose, he even withdrew his hand which was still held by Sarah. His face looks angry.

"You think because I'm currently sleeping in this hospital bed that I can't get any information from the outside, Michael?" asked Mr Collins sharply. "I know you've been staying at the hotel these past few days."

"Are you spying on me?!" Michael asked in a rising voice. He couldn't believe that at his age, his father would spy on her.

Mr. Collins just ignored Michael then turned his gaze to Sarah.

"And you, Sarah. How could you try to lie to me?" The old man's voice was not as high as when he was talking to Michael. This time it sounded quiet, and there was a hint of disappointment there.

"That…"

"I asked Sarah to do this!" cut Michael quickly when he saw his father looking at the woman with a disappointed look. "Don't blame her, this was all my plan!"

Mr Collins sighed when he heard that. He then looked at his only child with an annoyed look.

"Go! You two! I don't want to see you guys right now!" said Mr. Collins in annoyance and quickly turned his back to them.

"Ahh.;..really!" Sarah suddenly spoke after being silent for a long time. "We wouldn't have done this if you hadn't been stubborn in the first place or given me that much of your inheritance, Mr Collins! You…." Sarah wanted to curse at him, but she managed to contain herself.

"Let's go, Michael!" said Sarah who immediately turned around and walked first.

"Yes!" Michael, who was slightly surprised when Sarah suddenly raised her voice, immediately followed the woman from inside.

Meanwhile, Mr. Collins' lips involuntarily smiled and immediately turned around when he heard the door to the room being locked.

"Look at them protecting each other like that! Looks like the rest of my life I'm going to have some fun," thought Mr Collins and chuckled.

This is a lot of fun for him.

"Sarah!"

Michael, who finally caught up with the woman, immediately held her hand, causing Sarah to finally turn to her.

Michael's expression immediately changed when he saw Sarah's expression which looked sad.

"I'm sorry," Michael said sincerely.

"It's okay, Michael. This is not your fault!" Sarah said, trying to look tough. Right now she really felt guilty for having been caught lying to Mr Collins. She did feel annoyed at the old man's attitude, but she also felt very guilty.

"I'm sorry," Michael said again, still holding the woman's hand. Inside he had the urge to pull her into his arms, but he didn't seem to have the courage.

"It's okay," Sarah replied softly and then took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.

The atmosphere between the two of them then became quiet, Sarah finally realized that her hand was still being held by Michael, she then looked at their hands. Michael followed Sarah's gaze and quickly let go of the hand.

"Forgive me!" said Michael awkwardly with a blush on his face. He was really embarrassed at the moment, so used to him holding that hand in the past, he felt it was okay to keep holding it.

"It's okay," Sarah replied again, who knows how many times she said that and then she pulled her hand again. She felt awkward.

"Sarah," Michael called softly. "What if we did it for real? Living together?"
