Sarah still didn't answer. Her brain was in deep thought right now. Did she have to tell Michael what she was thinking?
What if it ruined Michael's relationship with his mother because of her?
Is there a way out of this situation?
Suddenly, Sarah could feel something touching her lips. Something very familiar. Those are Michael's lips!
Her eyes widened again when Michael kissed her, but this time it was just a peck like she used to give the twins, and not a deep kiss like before..
"What are you doing?" Sarah asked, looking at Michael with annoyance.
"Oh! You can talk," Michael said sarcastically. "I thought you were silent because you wanted me to kiss you again," he continued with a big smile.
Sarah's eyes widened at that. What kind of bullshit is that? She had kissed Michael back because she was just getting carried away!
Suddenly, Sarah felt those lips against hers again.
"Stop kissing me!" said Sarah angrily.
"Then tell me, what makes you hesitate. Otherwise, I will keep kissing you!" said Michael then kissed Sarah's lips again.
"What?!" said Sarah.
Michael didn't answer and turned to look at the watch he was wearing.
"Good, we have two hours before the kids come home." After saying that, Michael kissed her lips again.
"Stop kissing me!" said Sarah irritably, but again Michael kissed her on the lips.
"Damn it! I'm serious, Michael! Stop kissing me!" cursed Sarah in annoyance.
"Or what?" challenged Michael with a smile. For some reason, seeing Sarah's annoyed attitude like this made him happy.
The woman is usually silent, or does not make any expression when talking to him. So seeing her upset like this made Michael think back to when they were married and Sarah was always nagging him.
Sarah was surprised when she heard Michael who challenged her back. Has the man gone mad? Or something got into his mind?
"What?! You know what you're doing right now is harassment, right?" Sarah said irritably, having managed to find an excuse for Michael not to kiss her like that anymore.
However, again Michael kissed her lips.
"Then sue me!" said Michael with a big smile. "After all, we've met in court before. Looks like we can meet again there," said Michael nonchalantly.
Sarah gritted her teeth when she heard Michael's words. He is really annoying! She then took a deep breath and quickly turned around to head back to the kitchen.
However, once again Michael held her hand.
"I'm sorry, I was just kidding!" said Michael hastily apologizing. He thought it would at least make Sarah give up and tell him what she was thinking. He didn't expect Sarah to be so upset at all.
Sarah turned around, then sighed in resignation.
"You won't stop until you listen to me, will you?" Sarah asked with a tired expression on her face.
She admits that she is stubborn, and Michael has tried several times to give in to her. However, there was a time when Michael was so stubborn, and she had to give in to that man.
Looks like this time will be the last. Michael would keep pestering her until he heard the answer.
"Look? You know me well," Michael said with a big smile.
Sarah sighed resignedly, then chose to walk over to the sofa and sit there. Michael immediately followed the woman and sat next to her.
Sarah took a deep breath, trying to calm down and think about whether or not to tell Michael what was on her mind.
After finding the answer, Sarah immediately turned to Michael who was looking at him with a gentle gaze, waiting for Sarah to tell him.
Sarah's mouth finally opened, and she shared her heart with Michael for the first time.
How could she guessed that Mrs. Collins disliked her so much that she lied about Michael's engagement to Anna, to her fear of having to get back together with Michael.
"I don't know, Michael. I know that with us together, it is the best choice for the kids. They will finally have a complete family." Sarah smiled sadly as she said that.
Their children are getting older day by day, and in the end they will understand why they are different from other children.
When she heard her son's question asking their Daddy, Sarah's heart felt like it was getting a painful blow. It was an innocent question from a child, but it hurt her so much.
"However, I'm afraid, Michael. If we start over, the goal is marriage. But it's not just the two of us who are married, but a family. That means the kids, and also your parents. What if your mother insults the kids?"
A cry suddenly slipped out of Sarah's eyes and rolled down her cheeks. The thought that her children might hear what she heard from Mrs Collins hurt her.
She could endure the insults that were directed at her, but not at her baby
Michael's hand immediately wiped Sarah's tears when he saw that. He didn't think that was what Sarah was afraid of. It had never occurred to him at all, and he thought it made sense.
"We can work this out, Sarah. You can trust me," Michael said, taking the woman's hands and holding them while looking at her gently.
Sarah smiled sadly at that.
"I don't know Michael. Honestly, I don't know if I can't trust you, or maybe my love for you isn't that much. I do have feelings for you, but I really don't know!" said Sarah shaking her head, the expression on her face it was clear that the woman looked very confused.
Michael's face, which was once confident, immediately turned into a sad smile when he heard that.
"I understand. Let's start slowly first. I'll deal with this," Michael said softly.
"That…" Sarah licked her lips again. "Can you not get angry at your mother? I don't want your relationship to be damaged just because of me," said Sarah, who didn't forget to tell her that it would be very painful because she is also a mother.
Michael nodded in understanding when he heard that.
"Let's start talking and tell each other what we're thinking, Sarah. We've both regretted it. So let's not make the same mistake again."
Sarah fell silent when she heard that, then nodded her head. It seemed that from now on she had to be braver to tell her feelings, rather than think about it herself and end up regretting it.
,m Meanwhile…
Mrs Collins had just returned from kindergarten and had gone straight to the hospital to tell her husband what she had just found out.
How can her grandchildren be named Smith when they are Collins?! She should discuss this with her husband to take custody of her grandchildren!
