Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

Chapter 265 I Hate Monday

This morning Michael went to the office in a lazy mood. He had spent the last two days with Sarah and the children. He hoped that every day they could continue to be together like that.

Especially when yesterday they spent half a day in the pool. Maybe it was because he was the one who helped them get Sarah's permission to play in the pool, the two puppies kept calling him uncle, and it seemed their relationship had grown closer.

However, why did today have to be Monday, and he had to come to work?!

? "I hate monday!" Michael muttered under his breath then quickly got out of the elevator that took him to his office floor.

In the past, he didn't understand at all about people who looked uninspired on Mondays. They had two days of vacation. Shouldn't that be enough to come back to work?

But now he really understands why so many people hate Monday!

"Sir."

Michael, who passed by James' table, immediately stopped when he heard the man's call. From the tone of his voice, he could already tell that James wasn't just greeting him. He then turned and saw James was already standing in his seat.

"What? You're going to nag me again for being late?! I told you I would always come at this hour! It's not at eight anymore!" said Michael sulkily.

He was in a bad mood today, and he didn't want to hear another nagging from James about his arrival at the office.

Even though he doesn't come at eight, he always makes up for it by working at home, or even staying overtime at the office. At least, his work wasn't completely abandoned.

"It is not like that. I'm not going to nag you about that anymore," James said calmly. He could sense that Michael was in a bad mood today.

"Is he starting to enter his menopause age? We're the same age, though," thought James, noticing that Michael's mood was fluctuating these days.

"Then why are you calling me in that tone of voice?" Michael asked, raising an eyebrow. "Like you want to nag me?" accused Michael.

James had a confused look on his face when he heard that. Does he sound like that?

"I apologize, but I have something important to say," James said, changing his tone again. "There is a guest waiting for you."

"Guest?" Michael's eyebrows rose. "Am I waiting for a guest? You didn't tell me," Michael said then took out his cellphone to see a message from James.

To see if  he hadn't read it or had forgotten that a guest would come to visit him on Monday.

"Ah. The guest did come suddenly," James explained.

He just got surprised when someone he didn't expect at all suddenly came to look for Michael.

"That person didn't make an appointment beforehand?" Michael's face looked even more confused. "Who is it?"

"Anna Moss."

Michael's eyes widened when he heard that the guest who had come to visit him was Anna, his ex-lover.

"Anna?! Why did she come here?" asked Michael who couldn't hide his surprised expression. "Then where is she now?" Michael then looked behind him, trying to see if there was a woman sitting on the sofa waiting on the floor.

"I also don't know the reason for her arrival," said James looking confused. To be honest, he was curious too, but Anna said she would tell Michael and wait for the man.

"I told her to wait in your room. She came too early, and no one seemed to have seen her. I'm afraid that someone will see it later," continued James explaining why Anna didn't wait there.

"Why should you be worried?" asked Michael in confusion.

James didn't answer right away, his face looking doubtful. "Because you guys have a past?" said James, finally choosing to explain.

Although the news about Michael and Anna is no longer circulating on the internet, those who have read it know that Michael and Anna once had a relationship. James didn't want rumors to appear if anyone saw Anna coming in so early in the morning.

Anna came to visit Michael in the morning! Isn't that enough to be the subject of gossip?!

"What are you talking about?! Anna is married!" said Michael with an expression of disbelief. "I can't believe you think that Anna and I have something!" continued Michael irritably.

"I apologize," James said apologetically.

Michael sighed. "You can go back to work. I'm going to see Anna."

To be honest, Michael was a little confused as to why Anna had suddenly come to see him. After their conversation that time, he and Anna were still in touch, but it was like a business relationship because Anna was a famous supermodel, and his company needed Anna.

The woman even invited him to her wedding for the same reason, because of their business relationship.

They never even spoke again and just greeted each other when they met. So why did Anna suddenly come to him in the morning?

As soon as Michael opened the door to his room, he could see Anna sitting on the sofa playing with her cellphone, then immediately entered it when she saw Michael's arrival.

"Why are you here?" Michael asked as he walked over to his desk and put down his bag, then walked over to Anna and sat across from her.

"You came very late. I can't believe I waited for over an hour!" said Anna angrily.

"I didn't expect a guest to come waiting for me," Michael defended himself. "Oh? You weren't served a drink by James? Wait a minute…" Michael stood up again, intending to get out and approach James.

How could his secretary not serve drinks to his guests?

"No need. I've had breakfast and don't want to linger here." Michael sat back down when he heard that.

"I want to ask you for a favor."

Michael's brow furrowed when he heard that. "What kind of favor?"

"I want to be a cover model in one of Collins magazine's fall issues," said Anna confidently.

"Aren't you retired?" asked Michael in confusion. After Anna's wedding, they offered her to work together again, but Anna turned it down and said she would retire.

"I changed my mind, and I intend to return again as a model," said Anna.

"Then you should talk to my employees. Not me," Michael said confusedly. "I can't believe that you are such a model. Aren't you too confident to do something like this?" Michael asked.

Anna has always been a confident model. He didn't expect Anna to want to ask for help to become a cover model for his company's magazine.

"Well… I wanted to get back to modeling quickly, and Collins was the perfect place to do that," explained Anna.

"After all, even though I said a favor. I have interesting information that can help you," said Anna then leaned back and folded her long slender legs.

"Six years ago, your ex-wife thought that we were engaged."
