Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

"Where are you going?" asked James who stood up as soon as he saw Michael take his car keys.

James had a worried look on his face. Currently, Michael is not looking well, but he will go somewhere?

"There is a place I want to visit, I'll be right back," said Michael who still looks pale.

"Let me take you," said James who quickly stood in front of Michael before the man opened his room's door. He looked at Michael firmly.

Michael looked at James, the only person he could remember right now, and the person he thought he could rely on.

However… Michael didn't know anymore. If Anna's words were true, it meant that both James and Sarah had lied to him.

But the two of them would definitely not lie to him.

On the other hand, Anna didn't lie to him either!

Michael doesn't know who to trust anymore!

"It's okay, I'm just going out for a bit," Michael said then stepped over to James and grabbed the door handle and turned it and quickly left the room.

James turned and went out with him, staring at Michael's distant back, before finally disappearing into the elevator.

He didn't know where Michael would suddenly go, he could only hope his friend was okay!

Once in his car in the Collins parking lot, Michael didn't immediately start the car, he sat there holding the steering wheel tightly.

Right now… he was really scared. He could feel the coldness on his hands even though it was very hot right now, and cold sweat ran down his back.

He had an affair with two women?

Michael still couldn't accept it. It's not the self that he knows. He couldn't possibly be trash like that!

"But… if Anna's words are true, doesn't that mean I'm not having an affair with her and maybe Elizabeth too? I'm not being trash like that?" said Michael suddenly looking hopeful when the thought crossed his mind.

He then started laughing to himself.

"Yeah, right, If her words are true, I'm not trash! Haha!" Michael laugh like a crazy person, glad that he didn't turn out to be trash like he feared.

"Then… Sarah and I are divorced?"

The smile on Michael's lips disappeared when there was such a whisper in his ear.

If Anna's words were true, he wasn't having an affair, but he was divorced.

If what Anna said was a lie, he wasn't divorced from Sarah, but he was trash who had affairs with two women.

Michael… don't know which is better.

"Can I just marry Sarah and not have an affair? Why is it happening like this?" shouted Michael in frustration and then started hitting the steering wheel which had no fault at all to let go of his frustration.

Tears appeared in his brown eyes, ready to come out.

​ "I… just wanted to build my family with Sarah. Since when did things go wrong like this?" Michael muttered under his breath and leaned his face against the steering wheel.

Gradually… the tears he was trying to hold back finally came out.

Sarah had agreed to have children and they might soon become a family of three, but why… why did things turn out like this?

Michael stayed where he was with tears flowing from his eyes. His chest ached so bad.

Suddenly, Michael sat back in the driver's seat again and wiped his tears. He didn't know why he was being so whiny like this, this was really uncool!

He then take a breath, he did that three times, to make him feel even better.

He's made up his mind!

After he thought about it more deeply, he preferred the latter option, Anna lied to him.

So what if he, who he doesn't remember, has become trash and has an affair with two women?

At least he's still married to Sarah.

He had ended his relationship with Anna, and could end his relationship with his employee.

But he couldn't imagine that he had divorced Sarah, that woman was his everything.

"Yeah, I'm sure Anna must be lying to me," Michael said nodding confidently. One hand then prepared to open the car door to get off.

But suddenly, he pulled it back and grabbed the steering wheel.

He's already here, he'd better check to make sure, right? So that it doesn't bother him anymore.

Michael nodded, it seemed better that way.

With that in mind, Michael started his car and exited the Collins office parking lot.

After quite a distance in his office, Michael stopped the car. Where should he go to find out about it?

Michael finally took out his cellphone and looked it up on the internet.

After finding what he was looking for, Michael immediately headed to that place.

***

"Oh… you came back quickly," said James who stood up from his seat when he saw Michael emerge from the elevator with a face that looked… a little annoyed?

"Yes," Michael answered briefly without turning his head, then immediately headed to his room.

As soon as his hand grabbed the door handle, Michael paused and then turned to James.

"James?" Michael called, making James who had sat back immediately stand up again and looked at Michael.

"Yes?"

"If later there is a package sent on my behalf. Please bring it straight to my room and don't open it!" said Michael firmly.

James was a little confused by that. Package? Did Michael go buy something? But why does he look so annoyed?

James finally just nodded as usual and didn't ask any further.

Michael then immediately went into his room and immediately went to the leather chair behind the table and leaned against it and closed his eyes.

"Wow, now that I think about it, I'm still pissed. Why do they have to keep me waiting? Can't they just go find it and tell me that?" said Michael, opening his eyes again, his expression looking annoyed.

When he came to the address said by the internet, he did come to the right place to ask if he had a decree absolute or not.

However, he did not expect that the process turned out to be not that easy.

Michael thought he just needed to say his name and they would quickly look it up on the computer, but it wasn't that easy. He must fill a form and there must state the case number.

How did he know the d*mn case number when he not remember anything?

Luckily, he was able to leave it blank and submit it to the officer on duty.

However, once again Michael had to swallow his annoyance. He apparently had to wait for them to find it first!

He had tried to "persuade" them, but it seemed he really couldn't get the results today.

Then… does he have to continue like this to wait whether he is indeed divorced or not?

"Ahhh!! Let's just wait! I'm sure they made me wait on purpose to look for it carefully. I was sure from the start it didn't exist," said Michael trying to think positively.

***

Near the park located at the hospital, several people were seen exercising, walking with their pet dogs, and there was also a doctor pushing a wheelchair which was being occupied by an old man wearing patient clothes.

"You shouldn't have to accompany me like this. Aren't you busy?" asked Mr. Collins, looking at Sarah who was pushing him.

"It doesn't matter. I have free time. Do you prefer the nurse who accompanies you? I'm a little jealous," Sarah said pretending to sound annoyed.

"No, I like going out with you like this. I just don't want to bother you," said Mr. Collins before Sarah misunderstood.

Sarah chuckled lightly at Mr. Collins' behavior. Isn't he a charismatic man? Why did he look so flustered?

"If you don't want to bother me, you should get better soon," Sarah said and parked Mr. Collins' wheelchair by the park bench and then she sit there.

Sarah looked at the old man who was wearing a cloth to cover his head, which had no more hair because it had to be shaved during surgery. She feels her heart ached.

Mr. Collins was silent when he heard that, before finally nodding.

"By the way, how are you? You seem to have gained a bit of weight," said Mr. Collins, looking at Sarah intently.

Sarah rolled her eyes at that.

"Mr. Collins! Do you have to tell me that I'm getting fat?" Sarah said pretending to be a little annoyed.

In fact, Sarah could also sense that she might have gained a weight, maybe two or three pounds? She had always had a good dinner because Michael had hired a chef to cook their dinner, so it was only natural for her to gained weight. It is so tasty.

However, she didn't expect Mr. Collins to realize that, even though no one had ever said that to her before.

"Do not take it wrong. I mean, you look better! Thank goodness you look happy. I thought you would feel pressured by my request at that time," said Mr. Collins with a smile.

Sarah fell silent hearing this.

Does she look happy?
