Chapter 365 Secret

A smile immediately appeared on Michael's face as this brilliant idea crossed his mind. With an excited face, Michael immediately grabbed the computer mouse on his desk and searched for something, seeing if his idea could be implemented or not.

Michael's face looks serious looking at the monitor screen in front of him, his hand holding the mouse is moving, trying to draw something.

It took a long time for Michael's expression to look serious, before finally a smile appeared on his face.

He can do that!

Michael then immediately reached for the intercom on his desk to call James, the person who would help him carry out his plan.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" asked James when he was standing in front of Michael's desk. His forehead creased when he saw Michael's face that looked… pleased. As if he had just received some happy news.

"I've figured out how I should propose to Sarah!" said Michael who could not hide his enjoyment.

"Ohh…" James looked a little surprised to hear that.

He was happy that Michael had figured out how to propose to her, but… did Michael have to call him to say that?

"I'm so glad to hear that, Michael!" replied James with a smile.

Recently, Michael has changed a little. He became more expressive and smiled a lot. It seemed his mood got better if he complimented him a lot.

"Thank you, but I need your help!"

Michael then told James to sit down and tilt his monitor slightly so James could see it. He then explained his plan while showing the monitor screen with the mouse pointer.

James blinked as Michael finished explaining what he meant. He then looked at the man.

"Are you serious?" asked James with a look of surprise on his face.

Michael nodded with a serious facial expression.

"Sarah will absolutely love it!" he answered confidently.

James subconsciously nodded hearing that. He was sure that Sarah would really like what Michael had just described.

"But… isn't the scale too big? Are you sure…"

"James!" Michael said with a serious face. "I am Michael Collins," he continued confidently.

James flinched hearing that and then sighed, before finally his face looked serious again.

"When do you want it done?" he asked.

Michael didn't immediately answer when he heard that.

When should he propose to Sarah?

Michael's finger tapped his desk again, wondering when he should do it.

"Let's do that at…." said Michael after he found the answer.

James seemed to flinch when he heard that then nodded his head, indicating he understood.

It seemed… Michael really wanted his proposal to be memorable. However, that actually made him have to work extra.

Well… it doesn't matter. As Michael's friend, he must help the man and hope all goes well.

Tonight at Michael's apartment went like any other day. After picking up Sarah, Michael immediately sat down on the sofa and looked busy with his laptop, trying to see if any important emails had arrived.

While Sarah went straight to her room on the first floor, took a shower under the warm water to relieve her tiredness after three surgeries today, before she made dinner for her kids and her ex-husband.

While the twins, who usually continued playing after picking up their Mommy. Not visible in the living room.

Raphael decided to stay in his room doing his homework, while Gabriel, who had followed him into the room, just stared at his brother while lying on the bed with a bored look.

He thought Raphael wanted to play with him, but it turned out that his brother was studying instead.

Gabriel then decided to go straight out of the room. He didn't want to disturb his older brother, and he had better leave before his older brother yelled at him.

As soon as he left his room, he looked around him.

Mommy is not visible in the kitchen, meaning Mommy is still in her room. While his father was in front of his laptop with a serious face.

Gabriel's feet then stepped closer to his father.

Mommy and Rapa weren't there. This is the perfect time to talk to his daddy.

"Daddy!" called Gabriel who had been standing beside Michael.

Michael immediately turned his head when he heard his son's voice. He smiles.

"What is it?" he asked. He then tried to look for his eldest son, but he didn't see him.

Ah! Looks like the youngest child is bored.

"Come here!" Michael called then opened his arms, telling Gabriel to come closer.

Gabriel then came closer and let his Daddy hug him while he sat on his lap.

"Daddy!" Gabriel called again while tilting his head to see his father's face.

"What is it?" asked Michael once again looking at his son.

"That… I want to tell Daddy something, but don't tell Mommy or Rapa," said Gabriel with a shy expression.

Michael flinched slightly at that. He never expected that his son would come to him and tell his secret. His facial expression then immediately changed to one of delight. Apparently, he became a parent who could be trusted by his child to tell his secret..

However, his facial expression turned serious again.

Did his son do something and wanted to ask him to cover it up for fear of being scolded by Sarah? If so, what did his youngest son do?

"Okay. Daddy promised not to tell anyone," answered Michael with a smile on his face. "So… what did Gabriel want to say?"

"That…" Gabriel's face looked very hesitant to say, before turning red with embarrassment.

"There is my friend… she is very beautiful, Daddy! Even from behind she looks so pretty!" replied Gabriel who looked excited when he said that. "But I don't know what to do," he continued with a sad face.

Michael blinked when he heard what his son had just said. His mouth was even slightly open from the shock.

Is his son currently consulting love problems with him?!

But the kid is only five years old! He's already in love at that age?! Isn't this too soon?!

This was not at all what Michael had hoped for. He thought Gabriel might be doing something that Sarah would scold him for, and asked him to protect him.

Well… maybe he had eaten some snacks, or had made the floor dirty, or something!

"Daddy," Gabriel called again when Michael was silent.

Michael quickly cleared his throat and adjusted his facial expression to look serious again.

"Is she really that pretty?" asked Michael who was really confused about how to respond to this.

Gabriel nodded.

"I told you she's even pretty from behind, Daddy!" Gabriel said, a little annoyed. "I now understand what Daddy means when you say Mommy is beautiful from behind!" he continued.

At that time, he was very confused by his Daddy saying that his Mommy was beautiful while washing the dishes. They couldn't even see their Mommy's face, so how could his Daddy say his Mommy was beautiful?

Michael was a little surprised when he heard that.

"Is she prettier than Mommy?" asked Michael with a teasing smile. He knew that Sarah had always been called beautiful by her children.

However, Michael's eyes widened when he saw Gabriel nodding his head.

"You can't say that when Mommy hears it, okay? Mommy will be sad," Michael said hastily giving tips to his youngest child who seemed serious about liking someone.

"Okay," Gabriel answered, nodding in understanding.

"What about…" Michael did not immediately continue his words. His brain tried to think who else was the woman his son often said was beautiful. "Aunt Anna?" continued Michael who finally chose to mention the woman's name.

So far, her two kids always blushed when they saw Anna, and said she was beautiful.

Well… the woman is a supermodel, so it was a natural reaction.

"Olivia is prettier, Daddy. She is the most beautiful woman in the world!" Gabriel said excitedly as he moved his hands to make a big circle.

"Shit! He really has fallen in love with her!" Michael cursed to himself when he saw his son's behavior.

"Okay! So is this Olivia your classmate?" asked Michael trying to find information about the woman who might become his daughter-in-law.

Alright! Looks like he's overthinking it!

"No!" Gabriel shook his head. "She just joined our Karate class."

Michael just nodded hearing that. He does take his kids to karate classes once a week. Looks like his son found his crush there.

"So what should I do, Daddy?" Gabriel asked again because his father had not given him any tips on what to do.

"Hmm…" Michael seemed to think hard. "Did you talk to her? Or are you just looking at her from afar?"

"I could talk to her, but I don't think she likes me," Gabriel answered with a sad face.

Michael rubbed his son's head when he saw his son who looked sad. It seems that his son's first love did not go well.

"Then... How about you invite Olivia to come to the house on Saturday?" asked Michael suddenly who was curious about the little girl.

"I can do that?" Gabriel asked excitedly.

Michael nodded.

"Of course! You can invite your friends over to come here anytime," Michael answered with a smile on his face. "Daddy will see how Olivia looks, so Daddy can help you. Okay?"

Gabriel nodded. His facial expression looks happy.

"Thanks, Daddy!" said the boy and immediately went back to his room.

Michael just shook his head at his son's behavior. Looks like he is not young anymore, his son now even has someone he likes.

Well… Michael couldn't wait to see the girl who stole his son's heart.
