Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

Chapter 111 Michael Has Amnesia

One of the restaurants in London Shard was bustling as usual, there were several visitors enjoying their afternoon tea while enjoying the view of the sun that was about to set.

At one of the tables near the window, there were two women sitting and looking at each other. The two look very contrasting, one of the women looks young and very beautiful in her white t-shirt, seems like she still in her early 30s while the other one is in her 60s, but her face doesn't look like her age, it looks like she has done enough for her face.

"Let's get straight to the point, I'm busy," said the younger woman, crossing her arms over her chest, looking at the old woman sitting in front of her. Her voice sound so cold.

After three days the woman in front of her kept calling and even coming to her apartment, Anna couldn't take it anymore and finally decided to see Mrs. Collins.

Actually at this time she still didn't want to see anyone, her breakup with Michael was even more painful than Anna thought, but everyone seemed to care less about that!

They kept contacting her with the excuse of being worried about her, but Anna knew that they were just curious. Curious why she came to Collins and made such a scene there.

In fact, several reporters contacted her for an interview.

It seems what she did became hot news.

Anna actually wanted to tell everyone what had happened, what an asshole Michael Collins was, but when she thought about it, she couldn't bear to do that. Seeing how Michael immediately dealt with the news, made Anna sure that Michael didn't want it to be found out.

Well… that's obvious, who wants others to know their dark side?

However, Anna still chose not to tell anyone what had happened, even to her own parents. Apart from being very embarrassing, she also wanted to protect Michael.

It's a cliché, but she really loves him.

Mrs. Collins looked at Anna who was sitting in front of her, the sunlight hitting her face made her look very beautiful. Well… she is a model, after all. However, seeing the woman still wearing her sunglasses, made Mrs. Collins grit her teeth.

"This child has no manners!" thought Mrs. Collins seeing Anna's behavior. She then took the glass that was on the table and took a sip of her tea.

"Did you and Michael have a problem so you did that? You can tell me, I'll scold Michael and tell him to do what you want," said Mrs. Collins with a friendly smile as she placed her glass on the table.

The corners of Anna's lips lifted at that, forming a mocking smile.

"I had no idea that you were so shameless, Mrs. Collins. You came to see me to coax me back with Michael? And I thought you wanted to apologize," Anna said in a cold voice.

Mrs. Collins' brows rose, her expression confused. Apologize? Why would she apologize to this woman?

"Ahh… you don't seem to know anything," said Anna when she saw Mrs. Collins' face.

"Do you enjoy playing with me, Mrs. Collins?" Anna continued, still sounding cold.

"What do you mean, Anna? I don't understand. Did Michael do you a big mistake? I don't know what that brat did, but please forgive him. You know I really like you and only you deserve to be Collins' daughter-in-law."

Anna finally laughed when Mrs. Collins talked about daughter-in-law.

"Ahh… really, why are you so shameless, Mrs. Collins? daughter-in-law? Then what about your daughter-in-law? You want me to marry your married son? Disgusting!" said Anna full of contempt.

She knew that Mrs. Collins was nice to her because of her status as a daughter of the Moss family, but Anna had no problem with that at all because she liked Michael too.

It was a win-win situation for both of them.

But she had no idea Mrs. Collins was so desperate to want her to marry a man who already had a wife!

Come to think of it, this was an insult to her!

Mrs. Collins blinked when she heard this. She was really surprised to hear Anna's words. Does that mean Anna has met Sarah?

"Cat got your tongue? Why? You think I wouldn't know that? Like your son, you are absolutely disgusting, Mrs. Collins. Please do not contact me again!" said Anna then immediately stood up and took her bag. She had no business with the old woman anymore.

"They're divorced!" said Mrs. Collins hastily when she saw that Anna was really about to leave.

It made Anna pause where she was, she looked at Mrs. Collins.

"Are you that desperate to become part of the Moss family? You really let me down! I met Michael's wife at Michael's house!" said Anna finally telling what she knew.

It seemed Mrs. Collins would continue to bothering her if she didn't said it.

"No, it's not like that! You misunderstand!" said Mrs. Collins looking desperate. Sje didn't expect this mess at all because of that impolite orphan woman. Even after the divorce, she will continue to hindrance Michael?

"Enough! I don't…"

"Michael has amnesia!" cried Mrs. Collins when Anna had continue to walk.

What she said made several people turn towards them with curious and disapproving looks. Why shout in a restaurant like this? No manners!

However, Mrs. Collins didn't care about that. She had tried her best to keep Michael and Anna together, and she wasn't going to let that woman of unknown origins ruin her plans.

Anna was silent when she heard this. She turned again and looked at Mrs. Collins. Was that woman really that desperate? Amnesia? It seemed the old lady had watched too many movies.

"I'm seriously! I can prove it to you!" continued Mrs. Collins, realizing that Anna didn't believe her at all. She herself didn't think it would happen to Michael either, but the amnesia actually happened!

Anna sighed, then sat back in her chair and looked at Mrs. Collins with a lazy look.

She wondered what lies the woman would tell again.

Mrs. Collins smiled when she saw Anna who had returned to her seat. This is her chance to make things right!

"You… couldn't contact Michael for a month or so, right?" asked Mrs. Collins to begin her story. Since the accident Michael has indeed changed his cellphone number.

Anna was silent when she heard this. It's been a month since she couldn't contact Michael, her messages haven't been read by the man at all.

"So then..." Mrs. Collins then began to tell her what had happened. How Michael had an accident and turned out to have amnesia. He only remembered that he had just been married for three months, while the memories of the past five years, he couldn't remember.

When she heard that, the expression on Anna's face was still hard to predict. Michael has amnesia?

"I didn't think Michael would have such amnesia either. It just so happened that Michael's ex-wife worked at the hospital and the doctor who treated him," said Mrs. Collins, continuing her story.

Anna's eyes widened at that, luckily she was wearing sunglasses so Mrs. Collins couldn't see her.

Isn't this too… cliche?

But the look on Mrs. Collins' face and the way she told her story was very serious, not like a made-up excuse.

Mrs. Collins then said what Sarah had said then and she finally let Michael assume that he was still married to Sarah and that Sarah was willing to help them by pretending to be his wife.

"I know you don't believe me but they are over and right now Michael just loves you. He just doesn't remember you," said Mrs. Collins, ending her story.

She then took out her tissue in his bag and started wiping her eyes which was fine, she just wanted to make Anna see how sad she was right now.

"But don't worry. Michael will definitely remember you. The doctor said it was only for a moment. I hope you want to wait for Michael because he will be sad if he remember you and knows you two are breakup."

***

Anna returned to her apartment with a face that still couldn't believe it. She had a hard time believing what Mrs. Collins was saying.

But if Michael does have amnesia and is divorced… doesn't that mean she's just misunderstood?

To be honest, to this day she still loves Michael. It's just that, she keeps rejecting those feelings because she doesn't want to break the rules she made herself, being in relationship with married man.

"I don't know anymore! I'm really confused!" Anna said then buried her face in her bed pillow.

drtt… drtt…

Still in her position, Anna reached for her cellphone that was placed on the table when she heard it vibrate. He wondered who contacted him.

Anna's forehead wrinkled when it turned out to be a message from an unknown number, but the next second Anna's eyes grew bigger when she read the contents of the message.

[Is this with Anna Moss? I'm Michael Collins. Can we meet?]
