Chapter 229 Custody

"Sarah!" Michael shouted as he had just opened the door to his apartment.

His gaze immediately turned to the sofa in the living room, then to the dining table and kitchen.

When he didn't find the woman, Michael immediately walked towards the balcony to see if she was there.

"Sarah?!"

Michael sighed in annoyance when he didn't find the woman on the balcony either.

Where did that woman go?

Michael then went back into the house, called the woman's name while trying to find her.

When Michael was about to open the door to the room occupied by Sarah, the door to the room opened before his hand touched the doorknob, Sarah's figure came out of it.

"What is it?" asked Sarah with a confused expression. Her hair looked still wet and from her clothes it looked like she was about to go outside.

Michael gritted his teeth, trying to contain the anger that rose when he saw the woman's face.

"Let's sit there and talk!" said Michael who sounded suppressed his emotions.

Sarah's brows rose when she heard those words, she could sense that Michael looked unusual at this time.

Still looking confused, Sarah finally complied Michael to sit at the dining table.

"What do you want to say?" asked Sarah impatiently.

She is currently preparing to find a job. After she thought about it again, she had to put his ego down a bit and find a part-time job while waiting for an interview call for her.

She only had two months to live with Michael, and before that she'd better collect her money and save it.

Michael was still gritting his teeth, one hand under the table clenched into a fist, then the envelope from the hospital he was holding in one hand he handed to Sarah without a word.

Sarah's brow furrowed as Michael placed an envelope on the table. She looked at Michael who was pressing his lips, as if he was holding himself back from saying anything.

Sarah's gaze then shifted to the brown envelope that was on the table, she took it and saw that it was from one of the major hospitals in London. It wasn't the hospital where Mr Collins was being treated, but Sarah knew that hospital.

Sarah's mind began to wonder about the contents of the envelope. Why did Michael give her something from the hospital? Was it the result of his father and he wanted to ask for her consultation?

Sarah then opened the envelope, took out its contents. Her eyes immediately opened wide when he read the DNA test results and Gabriel's name was written on it.

The secret that she had been keeping for six years was finally discovered!

"You did a DNA test secretly?!" Sarah asked raising her voice as she stood up from her chair and tossed the DNA test results to Michael.

She didn't need to look at what percentage of the probability of paternity was because it definitely showed that Gabriel was Michael's son.

The emotion that Michael had been trying to suppress for so long exploded when he saw Sarah's response.

"Is that all you can tell me?!" asked Michael who also stood up and raised his voice. "You hid my child, Sarah!"

The corners of Sarah's lips lifted slightly when she heard what Michael said.

"They are my children! My children!" said Sarah, thumping her chest. Her voice was still high, and it was also shaking.

When the Twins first asked about their Father, Sarah immediately looked on the internet if Michael could get custody of the Twins even though they were both born out of wedlock.

It's hard to do, but it can happen. Stupid law!

The moment she found out, Sarah knew she had to hide the Twins well.

Even though the odds were slim, Michael had the money and could turn those odds into big ones.

However, Sarah had no idea that the day she had been worrying about would come.

She shouldn't have followed Michael back to London.

She shouldn't be living with her ex-husband.

She shouldn't have allowed Michael to get so close to her children that she made him suspicious and took her son's DNA sample!

"And you can't take my children, Michael! You have to step over my dead body because I'm going to use everything in my power to stop you!" Sarah snapped, her face bright red.

Sh knew it would be a tough fight. Michael is a CEO of a large company, while she is just an unemployed woman with experience as a surgeon.

One look people could immediately guess that she would lose, but Sarah would not give up so easily. Michael must step over her dead body if he is to take the Twins away from her!

Michael took a breath to calm himself when he saw Sarah's current state of being too emotional and looking scared.

He was indeed angry and wanted to ask why Sarah did this to him, but Michael knew if he vented his emotions too, things would get worse.

The worst thing that happened when he got emotional too was for Sarah to leave him, as she had done in the past.

"Calm down. I didn't mean to take Raphael and Gabriel," Michael said, trying to sound calm. "Like it or not, they're both my son's too, Sarah. Our sons. Things are different now."

"Ohh… you're wrong, Michael! Nothing will change!" said Sarah shaking her head, disapproving of Michael's words.

Michael had known the Twins were sharing DNA with him, but that wouldn't change anything. These two are her children!

"Obviously things would be different, Sarah!" said Michael raising his voice again. "They are my children, and I will do my duty as a father!"

"We don't need your money, Michael!" Sarah said, still sounding emotional.

Michael took a deep breath when he heard Sarah being so stubborn. Tried to calm himself down from getting emotional, but… Michael couldn't calm himself down at all.

"For God's sake, Sarah! Let me do it! They are my children too and not just you! You think you can get pregnant alone without me?! You were the one carrying them, but I was involved!" said Michael angrily.

Sarah was silent when she heard Michael raise his voice. Her chest seemed to be rising and falling and her face was still flushed with anger.

Michael took another breath when he saw Sarah just standing there, trying to calm herself down.

He then immediately walked over to Sarah, and tried to grab the woman's hand, but Sarah immediately withdrew her hand, not wanting to be touched by Michael.

Michael just smiled sadly at that, then his hand immediately went up and held Sarah's arms.

"Look, I'm not going to take the Twins from you, or take custody of them," Michael said softly, and looked Sarah straight in the eye. "I only ask you to let me do my duty as a father and not forbid me to approach them."

Michael then swallowed hard.

"It's been five years, Sarah. I've missed it for five years. Please… let me be the father…" Michael said in a trembling voice and tears suddenly came out of his eyes.
