Chapter 378 Valentine's Day

The days passed as usual and without realizing it, the new year had finally arrived.

Sarah couldn't have imagined that this New Year she would be celebrating with Michael, and also with their kids.

Not only that, Michael has proposed and it won't be long before they get married again.

If she recalled the last few months of the past year, things seemed to be going very well for her. She had got a job as a surgeon, and her kids had known their Daddy.

Sarah doesn't know what the next year will bring, but she hopes all will be well for this year, and years to come.

The days went back to normal, the kids who had been on winter break, started to return to school and their schedules returned to the way they were before.

"Daddy."

Michael, who was looking busy in front of his monitor screen, looked at his youngest son who suddenly came closer to him.

"What's wrong, Gabriel?" asked Michael confusedly and stole a glance at his son because at this time he was busy replying to an important email.

"Wait a minute, let Daddy reply to this first," Michael said seriously then immediately sped up his typing to reply to the email.

Gabriel just nodded and waited near his Daddy.

After a while, Michael finally seemed to have finished. He then looked directly at his son.

"So, what's wrong?" Michael asked then looked around him, looking for the whereabouts of his eldest son.

Michael's lips immediately smiled when he saw his eldest son sitting on the sofa in his room reading an automobile magazine that was placed on the table on the sofa. Did the kid even understand what he was reading?

However, after Michael looked at him again, it seemed that Raphael was just looking at the car pictures in the magazine. Maybe he's bored and looking for something to kill time with.

"Can Daddy take me somewhere before we go home?" asked Gabriel with a serious face.

Michael turned back to his youngest son when he heard that.

"Oh. Where does Gabriel want to go?" asked Michael, confused.

This was the first time his son had asked to be taken somewhere before they went home.

"Are you hungry already?" guessed Michael.

Gabriel shook his head. "I want to buy flowers!"

"Flower?" asked Michael, confused.

Gabriel nodded.

"Tomorrow is Valentine's Day. I want to buy flowers for Mommy and Olivia too." Gabriel then took out some money from his trouser pocket. "Do I have enough money, Daddy?" he asked with a serious looking face.

Michael flinched a little to hear that. He then quickly looked at the date on his monitor screen. Today turns out to be February 13th, so tomorrow turns out to be Valentine's Day.

To be honest, Michael had completely forgotten about that. So far, he has always spent Valentine's Day like a normal day in general. He even realized it was Valentine's Day when he came into the office and saw his employees talking about it.

Apparently, his son is better than him. He even remembers such a day.

But wait, isn't there something strange about what his son said?

"You want to buy flowers for Olivia too?" asked Michael, surprised to hear that. He thought his son had given up on his first love.

Gabriel nodded seriously.

"OIivia didn't say she doesn't like me. She laughs when I talk to her," Gabriel replied with a smile on his face.

Michael just shook his head when he heard that. Apparently, his son's puppy love didn't end badly and his youngest son is truly a lover.

Michael could imagine that when he grew up, his son would probably break a lot of women's hearts.

Valentine's Day is finally here.

After finishing breakfast, the twins went straight to their room and went to get the presents they had bought for Sarah yesterday.

Sarah was a little surprised to see her two babies who returned with a bouquet of flowers.

"Aww… Thanks," Sarah said with a smile on her face and took the bouquet. She then kissed their cheek alternately.

Unknowingly, Sarah immediately looked at Michael who was still sitting at the dining table drinking his coffee. The look in her eyes seemed to say 'Are you not preparing something for me?'

Michael smiled when their eyes met. "I'll give you a present tonight," he answered silently with a wink.

Sarah blushed when she saw that, and could only look forward to what Michael would do tonight.

Evening came and as soon as Sarah opened the door, she immediately saw flowers scattered on the floor forming a path with a heart at the end of the path.

The twins excitedly announced that they were helping Daddy to make it, which made Sarah not stop smiling from ear to ear.

"This is for you," Michael said, handing her a bouquet of flowers and a card on top.

"Thank you," Sarah replied and immediately smelled the bouquet given by Michael. She then took out the card which was handwritten by Michael.

[Happy Valentine's Day, Babe. You make my day colorful, and I look forward to spending the rest of my life with you. I love you.]

Sarah's eyes filled with tears when she looked at Michael and without waiting any longer, Sarah immediately approached Michael, hugged him, and kissed his lips.

Michael immediately returned the hug with a smile on his face.

Seeing their two parents hugging again, the twins jumped into action and tried to separate them by pulling Michael away.

This time, though, Sarah decided to stick with him for a little while longer.

"I didn't prepare anything," Sarah whispered softly with a guilty expression. Michael had prepared this for her, but she had prepared nothing to give him

All this time, Sarah has never looked forward to Valentine's Day. She realized it was Valentine's Day when it was already the day, and in the afternoon she baked cookies with her kids. That's how she spent Valentine's day.

Today she was surprised because it was Valentine's day, but she also couldn't prepare a present because she had to go to work.

"You can be on top later," Michael whispered in a low, seductive voice.

Sarah immediately hit Michael's shoulder lightly, then finally let go of the hug because the kids started whining.

Isn't he super perverted?

However, even though she felt embarrassed hearing the teasing. Sarah still gave Michael the Valentine's present that the man wanted.

That day, their love for each other grew even bigger.

The days passed, the long winter was unknowingly almost over, and it was replaced with flowers that would soon be blooming beautifully.

Michael and Sarah's wedding preparations are almost 90% complete. They had already hired the wedding organizer, and told them the place where they would do their wedding.

They have also finished selecting the invited guests and there are less than thirty people.

At first it was difficult for Michael, he had a lot of trouble choosing who he should invite. The first person he chose was of course his secretary, James, and then the next he seemed to be deep in thought.

In the end, Michael chose to invite his friends who work at the MCGames company, and who attended his wedding to Sarah in the past.

Even though they only saw each other a few times while discussing business, Michael was very grateful to his friends.

Sarah herself was not too difficult in choosing who her guest was. She invited some of her co-workers she was really close with, though some of them immediately said they couldn't seem to make it because of work.

Then there is Arthur, her childhood friend who helped her a lot in the past.

To be honest, Sarah thought for a long time whether she should invite the lawyer or not considering their past relationship.

However, after Sarah gave it some more thought, Arthur was her childhood friend and they used to be very close, so Sarah decided to invite him.

Lastly, Sarah invited Steve as well as Anna.

Sarah knew that it would be really awkward to invite the two of them to her wedding, but Steve helped her a lot in the past, so Sarah felt bad not inviting him.

Likewise with Anna, who has become a friend to her despite their complicated relationship

"Steve!"

Steve, who had just tidied up his desk and was getting ready to go home, was a little surprised to see Sarah entering his room.

"What is it?" asked Steve who could not hide his surprise when he saw the woman wearing her coat while carrying her bag.

"Do you have time?" Sarah asked then immediately sat down in a chair that was there without being invited by Steve.

Steve snorted at that. "You asked that but you sat down right away?" he quipped and sat back down.

Sarah just chuckled at that.

"I need a favor," Sarah said with a serious face
