Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

Chapter 20 Date

"It's nothing! I'm just in a good mood," said Sarah with a smile and then looked back ahead while humming.

By now she had made up her mind and heart to pretend to be Michael's wife, so even though she still hated her ex-husband, she was trying to hold it in and pretend, so that her plan to make Michael fall in love with her and then dump him could work!

Michael also smiled when he saw his wife's attitude. He didn't know what was going on, but seeing his wife singing a little while shaking her head happily made Michael happy too.

"Babe."

Michael, who was eating his dinner, choked when he heard Sarah's voice calling him. Hastily he immediately took the glass that was on the table and drank it.

"Are you okay?" asked Sarah who immediately stood up and walked over to Michael and patted him on the back.

"Yes. I'm fine," Michael replied, feeling better.

Sarah then immediately returned to her seat and continued to eat her food.

"You should be more careful! How can you choke like a child!" said Sarah, shaking her head at Michael's behavior.

Michael just cleared his throat when he heard that.

Actually, it wasn't that Michael couldn't eat properly until he was choking like that, but it was Sarah who suddenly called him Babe.

Come to think of it, after coming home from the hospital, Sarah always called his name and never called that affectionate nickname Sarah used when they were dating and still used it when they married. So Michael was a little surprised when Sarah did call him with that.

"Oh right, why did you call me earlier?" asked Michael curiously. This time he decided not to continue eating and looked at Sarah. He was afraid he was surprised again when he heard his wife's words.

"Do you have time tomorrow?" Sarah asked and ate her food one more time.

"Tomorrow? Not. Tomorrow is Sunday so I don't have to come to the office. Why?" Michael asked confusedly.

This was the first time Sarah had asked if he wasn't busy and had some free time.

Wait a minute… isn't Sarah going to be out of work tomorrow too?

Does that mean Sarah will ask him out on a date?

Well, even though they had been married for five years, he had absolutely no memory of it whatsoever. So he felt grateful that his wife took the initiative to ask him out.

Sarah was silent for a moment. Unconsciously she wet her own lips. She really wanted to take Michael to go somewhere tomorrow, but suddenly the memory of Michael refusing to pick her up came back.

After that incident, Sarah never asked Michael to go out together again. Well, It was true that she was busy with her internship, but she felt that Michael didn't want to go out with her anymore.

"No! I have to try it for the sake of my plan!" Sarah thought then sighed and looked at Michael fixedly

"I want you to accompany me somewhere…"

"Okay!" cut Michael quickly.

Sarah blinked when she heard Michael's words. She didn't expect Michael to agree so easily.

"Okay? You want to do it?" Sarah asked, a little unsure.

"Yes! I'm even sorry that you took the initiative first," Michael replied a little uncomfortably.

As a man, he should take the initiative to ask his wife out on a date.

Not only did Sarah accept him who couldn't remember their memories, and also asked him to make new memories, but Sarah also took the initiative to ask him out on the date.

Michael felt a little disappointed in himself for not being able to lead well.

"Okay, then tomorrow maybe around 10 am we can visit father and mother," Sarah replied with a smile and continued her dinner.

"Yeah, tomorrow morning we can… eh? What? What did you say?" asked Michael with his eyes wide open. He couldn't believe what he had just heard.

What did Sarah say?!

"We can visit father and mother," Sarah said after swallowing her food.

"So you mean you want me to accompany you tomorrow to visit dad and mom?" Michael asked again, repeating Sarah's words.

Sarah nodded.

In fact he could have gone alone to meet Mr Collins at his house. However, Sarah was too lazy to deal with Mrs. Collins. So bringing Michael with her seemed like a good idea.

At least Mrs Collins would have kept her attitude if her son was there.

"Ahh… I see… but why?" asked Michael, still not understanding.

He and Sarah finally get some time to spend together, but Sarah wants to go to his parents' house?

Why?

Michael couldn't understand at all.

"Just because. I haven't visited them in a long time," Sarah replied casually.

Michael's face still showed that he didn't understand at all, but he finally sighed and continued to eat his dinner.

While Sarah just looked at Michael with raised eyebrows. She could catch Michael's confused expression, but she couldn't understand why Michael was making such a face.

"Doesn't he like going over to his parents' house? Well, it can't be helped, I have to put my plan into action," Sarah thought as she ate her food.

Meeting Mr Collins and telling him what Sarah had just discovered was something he had to do immediately.

And tomorrow seems like a good time, because Mr Collins is always at home on Sunday!

"Doesn't this hospital have another surgeon? Why do they always call you in the middle of the night like this?" Michael complained when he and Sarah were already in the car.

Just as they were about to go to bed, Sarah's pager suddenly rang and without waiting long Sarah immediately rushed to get ready to go to the hospital, making Michael could only sigh when he saw that.

"That's because I'm a great surgeon, patients need me," Sarah replied with a proud look on her face.

It was tiring to have an emergency patient at night like this, but when she managed to save the patient, Sarah could feel a sense of joy.

"Don't complain too much and just focus on driving. I want to get home quickly and sleep," Sarah said with a yawn.

Tomorrow is an important day and Sarah wants to be in good shape. Not only would she have to persuade Mr Collins, but there was the possibility that she would also have to confront Mrs Collins.

Michael snorted when he heard that. But he said nothing more and focused his gaze forward.

Michael's face looked annoyed.

He knew that this was a risk from his wife's job, but he didn't like it at all when he saw Sarah who had to go to the hospital almost every night and only finished when it was another day.

"It can't be like this. Looks like I have to do something," thought Michael who couldn't stand this situation anymore.
