Chapter 252 The Only Daddy
"Are you sure you don't want me to drop you off?" asked Anna who had sat in the driver's seat of her car and turned to Sarah who was standing near her car.
"It's okay. I'd like to stop by somewhere else for a bit. You can go," Sarah replied with a smile and waved her hand.
Anna still looked doubtful, but she finally nodded her head then closed the window and drove the car.
After Anna left, Sarah sighed. Right now, various things were going through Sarah's mind.
If she hadn't known that Anna and Michael were engaged, Sarah would have immediately accepted Michael back at that time and told him that she was pregnant with Michael's child.
That time, even though Michael said something that hurt her, Sarah knew it was her fault for lying to Michael. His word is hurtful, but she kinda deserved it. After all, she lied to be still his wife..
However, Michael keeps looking for her and says he still loves her and wants to start their relationship again.
At that moment, though not one hundred percent sure, Sarah knew she could start over her relationship with Michael, especially since she was pregnant with their child.
Sarah then closed her eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm herself which was overwhelmed with various emotions.
"I'd better go for an afternoon walk before heading back home," Sarah thought and then quickly walked to a nearby park to clear her head.

After Sarah left, Michael's hands were focused on helping his children put the Legos, but his mind wasn't focused on it at all and thinking about what Sarah was doing. Did the woman meet someone?
"Do attorneys not work on Saturdays?" thought Michael suddenly. began to wonder.
He had heard that there were courts open on Saturdays. In that case, does that Auburn attorney have to work today to attend the court?
But… Michael really didn't know. It wasn't like he could figure out the Auburn attorney's schedule to know if Sarah left when the Auburn attorney wasn't busy.
Or… should he tell James to find out about it?
"Old man, I can't put this down."
Gabriel's voice brought Michael back to his senses and immediately helped the boy find another piece to put.
After he finished helping him, Michael looked at the two kids who were busy putting together the Legos.
He had no idea how Sarah's relationship with the Auburn attorney was. To be honest, if Sarah's relationship with him was going well, then it got serious. Sarah can do just that.
Michael knew about it, and he couldn't blame Sarah for starting a new relationship with another man because they were divorced.
However… if their relationship becomes serious, to the point they get married. Does that mean these kids will get a new dad?
No! Michael immediately shook his head, vehemently refusing that! He won't let that happen!
He is their Daddy, the only Daddy of his sons! He won't let another man become their daddy!
"Boys!" called Michael, clapping his hands twice, trying to get the kids' attention.
"How about we prepare a surprise for Mommy and buy Mommy a present?" asked Michael suddenly.
He knew Sarah was absolutely right about starting a new relationship, but he didn't want his sons to get a new dad.
So the only thing he could do was mend his relationship with Sarah.
If Sarah is currently out on a date, he has to make her forget today's date by preparing a surprise and giving her a present.
However, right now he had to take care of the Twins. It wasn't like he could leave his two children alone in this apartment. So he had to take them out along with him.
"Is today Mommy's birthday?" asked Gabriel who seemed interested in that.
Michael shook his head.
"Then Mother's Day?" Now it was Raphael's turn to ask.
"Ah! Christmas Day!" guessed Gabriel.
"Christmas is winter, silly!" Raphael commented. "Today is Valentine's Day?" guessed Raphael.
"Valentine's Day is also in winter!" Gabriel interrupted when he saw that his brother was also wrong.
The two fell silent, trying to figure out what day it was that they should surprise and buy Sarah a present.
Michael just chuckled at the expression on his two children who were thinking hard.
"Today is an ordinary day. There are no important occasions," Michael said softly.
The two then looked at Michael in confusion. As if to say that why should they give surprises and gifts to their Mommy.
"You don't have to wait for an important occasion to give someone a surprise or gift. If you love that person, you don't have to wait until something important happens to do it," Michael explained.
Both nodded in understanding when they heard Michael's explanation.
"Then do you love Mommy, old man?" Gabriel asked suddenly.
"Eh?" Michael was a little taken aback by the question he never thought his son would ask.
Meanwhile, Raphael looked at Michael curiously, waiting for the answer the man would say.
"Hmm… yes," Michael replied sheepishly. He was completely unprepared for the question his son would be asking, especially considering that he hadn't told them he was actually their father.
However, he didn't want to lie about it. He did love Sarah.
"You have no chance, old man! Our daddy is so cool!" said Raphael suddenly, looking at Michael with a fierce look.
"Yes, Rapa is right, old man," said Gabriel, nodding his head, agreeing with his brother's words.
"Uncle knows. Your daddy is so cool!" said Michael nodding his head, his facial expression looking confident and shamelessly calling himself cool.
"By the way, do you want to come along with uncle to prepare a surprise and buy a present for Mommy?" asked Michael, trying to change the subject. "Uncle wants to thank Mommy who often prepares food for uncle," he continued.
"But Mommy never made food for you. Our food menu is always different," said Raphael, looking at Michael suspiciously.
"Yes, Rapa is right," Gabriel agreed.
Michael was completely speechless when he heard that. Why are his children so smart? Who do they take after?
"Well… Uncle just wanted to thank Mommy. Can't uncle do that?" asked Michael who was really at a loss for what other excuse to come up with.
The two children fell silent, before finally nodding their heads in unison. There seemed to be no problem if the old man wanted to thank Mommy.
"Then let's get ready to go out. Do you guys need help changing your clothes?" Michael asked then immediately stood up to get ready to change his pants.
"But..." said Gabriel suddenly who was still sitting on the floor.
"I have no money," he said sadly. He wanted to buy a present for his Mommy, but he knew to do that, he needed money.
Gabriel then turned to Raphael who had stood up. "Rapa, do you have any money?" he asked.
A smile immediately appeared on Michael's face when he saw the conversation and the sad expressions of the two. Why are they so cute?
