Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

"What?! So you asked that woman to pretend she's still Michael's wife?! Have you gone crazy?!" asked Mrs. Collins as she was pulled by Mr. Collins out of Michael's room.

"Then what about you? How can you pull her hair like that?! Aren't you the one who has gone mad?" asked Mr. Collins. He had never expected his wife to behave like that.

He knew that his wife wouldn't like the decision he made, but he didn't expect her to pull Sarah's hair like that.

"Anyway, I don't agree with your decision! How could you do something like that?!" said Mrs. Collins, crossing her arms across her chest.

"Michael is now the CEO of the company! Do you want the company's shares to go down because he has amnesia? My decision is final! Sarah can help Michael!" said Mr. Collins insistently.

Mrs. Collins was silent when she heard that, what her husband said did make sense.

"Then, what about Anna? We..."

"What are you talking about? Are you still thinking about setting up Michael and that woman? I will never allow the two of them together!" said Mr. Collins quickly and then left the place, leaving Mrs. Collins alone.

Mrs. Collins just looked at her husband while raising her eyebrows. She did not understand why her husband disliked Anna so much, even though Anna was a very suitable woman to be her daughter-in-law.

Meanwhile, in Michael's room.

Sarah winced in pain as she examined her head that Mrs. Collins had grabbed. She had no idea that her mother-in-law, ah, her ex mother-in-law would grab her hair like that.

Sarah always thought that one day Mrs. Collins would surely used her hands to attack her, but she never thought the old woman would pull her hair.

"Are you all right?" asked Michael with a worried tone. He intended to touch Sarah's head, but the woman immediately slapped his hand away.

"I'm fine. It seems that you are fine. Then, I will go first," said Sarah and instantly left Michael's room without waiting for the man to say anything.

Michael just looked at Sarah worriedly. He then sighed as the woman came out of the room. It looked like he had to talk to his mother about what had happened earlier.

Two days later.

Sarah came to the hospital as usual with a coffee in her hand. She then changed her clothes right away and went to her room to check her operation scheduled today.

"Three surgeries?" Sarah muttered then immediately went to visit her first patient who would do the surgery this morning.

Once the surgery, which took three hours, was finally done, Sarah realized that she hadn't checked on Michael. Even though she didn't want to do it, she had promise to Mr. Collins.

However, when Sarah arrived at Michael's room, her brow furrowed. The room was empty and had been tidied up. Sarah then decided to ask the nurse on duty, and she was very surprised to hear that the patient had been discharged.

"Michael has returned home? Then why didn't he say something to me? Has he regained his memory?" Sarah thought that it was very strange.

If Michael hadn't regained his memory, Sarah was sure that the man would have asked her to take care of him and come home with him.

'Why should I even think about that? Thank goodness he's finally gone home, and I don't have to pretend to be his wife again,' thought Sarah who shrugged her shoulders. Then she immediately went to check on her patient who would do the surgery this afternoon.

Today she was very busy and didn't have time to think about that bastard.

***

Sarah walked into her room with a tired look on her face.  Having three operations with large cases drained all her energy. At least she could finish the operation before her shift ended.

"I think I will go to a Spa to have a message. It has been such a long time since I pampered my body," thought Sarah while walking into her office.

"Are you done?"

When Sarah was about to open the door to her room, she heard someone's voice. It made Sarah immediately turn around, and she was surprised to see Michael  standing beside her.

"Michael? Why are you here?" asked Sarah in surprise. She didn't realize Michael's presence at all.

"Of course, to pick up my wi... hmph!" Sarah quickly covered Michael's lips when she knew what the man was about to say. She then glanced at the nurses and doctors who were stealing glances at them.

Michael  had a tall and muscular body, and his face could also be categorized as very handsome. So some people couldn't help but take another glance at Michael.

The doctors and nurses there looked very interested in Michael, but they also knew Sarah was single!

Wouldn't it be strange if a man suddenly claimed Sarah as his wife?

"I'll take my bag and change my clothes first. Wait here and do not say anything!" she whispered in Michael's ear.

Seeing the man nod, Sarah finally let go of her hand from Michael's lips.

Shortly after, she had changed her clothes. From afar, Sarah gave a code to Michael to follow her.

Michael who saw that frowned. When he was walking towards Sarah, the woman also walked away, as if avoiding him.

"Why did you leave me?" Michael asked when he finally caught up with Sarah in the parking lot.

"Where's your car? Hurry up, before anyone sees us!" said Sarah who looked panicked while occasionally looking around her. She wondered if anyone she knew saw her with a man right now. .

Michael frowned, but he finally took his car key and turned the car on, making Sarah immediately rush up to the car.

Seeing Sarah's strange behavior made Michael confused. Why did it look like the woman didn't want to be seen with him? He was her husband, but right now they looked like they were having an affair.

"Let's go!" Sarah said when Michael finally got into the car and looked straight ahead.

"..."

Sarah then turned to Michael when the man didn't say anything or start the car.

"Why are you acting like this?" asked Michael who couldn't stop himself from asking it.

"What do you mean?" Sarah asked, raising her eyebrows.

"Yeah... you don't want to walk with me, and you want to rush into the car. You act like you're with a man you're having an affair with, even though I'm your husband," Michael said. He had a hurt look on his face when he said that.
