Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband-Chapter 242 In Their Own World
While Michael was reading the contents of the paper he had to sign, there was silence in the room.
Sarah, who didn't know what to do, just looked around the room from her seat, hoping that time would pass quickly and Michael would soon finish reading it and sign it.
"How is your son doing?"
Sarah immediately turned her gaze forward when she heard the question. Arthur was looking at her with a friendly expression on his face.
"Eh?" Sarah was a little confused. Why did Arthur suddenly ask about her son?
Ah! Did he just want to make small talk because he was bored waiting for Michael?
Well… on the topic of small talk, Sarah had to admit that this was a little different than usual. No one asked the condition of their child to just make small talk.
"You forgot to tell me. I was waiting for a message from you, though," continued Arthur when he saw Sarah's confused expression. His lips formed a smile.
"Ah!" Sarah's mouth opened when she heard that. She had completely forgotten that Arthur said to send the man a message!
"I'm sorry, I completely forgot about that!" said Sarah who looked guilty. "He's fine," he continued.
Arthur just smiled at the look on Sarah's face, they hadn't seen each other in years, but she still looked very much like the Sarah he knew.
Arthur's hand that had been placed on the table then immediately went down to his pants pocket and took out his cellphone. The man then gave Sarah his cellphone. 𝒇𝚛e𝘦wℯ𝑏𝓃𝑜νℯ𝒍.co𝗺
"Then can you give me your number?" Arthur asked softly. "I don't know your number and I can text you again in case you forgot about it."
Sarah's mouth opened once again. She didn't expect that Arthur was really serious about what he said that time to tell him.
Meanwhile, Michael, who had been listening to their conversation, immediately raised his head as he read the paper.
The two of them really acted as if he wasn't even in this room!!
Michael then turned to Arthur who was looking at Sarah with a gentle gaze.
Michael then turned to Sarah, who just stared at Arthur's phone but didn't pick it up.
"Right! You can't give your number to strangers!" Michael really wanted to say it, but he decided to say it in his heart. Hoping that Sarah could hear him.
However, Michael's mouth opened in surprise when he saw Sarah take the cellphone and enter the number. His gaze then subconsciously turned to Arthur, and the man smiled like an idiot!
"What's this? Since when did the two of them become that close?" thought Michael who didn't expect Sarah to give him her number so easily.
The first time he asked Sarah to get acquainted, Michael asked for the woman's number, but Sarah immediately turned him down quite emphatically. So Michael had no idea Sarah would give the lawyer her number.
(You can read from chapters 72-76. There is a little snippet of them before getting married)
Arthur took back his cellphone that Sarah gave him with a smile, then immediately pressed the call button to dial the number. A ringing tone immediately filled the room and Sarah hurriedly looked for her cellphone which was in her bag.
"Oh! It really is your number!" Arthur said with a smile when he could see Sarah's cellphone screen showing an unknown number.
Sarah snorted at Arthur's words. Did the man think that she would give the wrong number?
"That is my number. You can save it," continued Arthur then immediately saved Sarah's number. 𝙛𝑟𝑒e𝘸𝑒𝗯𝘯𝗼𝘃el.𝒄𝒐m
Sarah did the same.
Meanwhile, Michael's gaze continued to stare at the two people who seemed to be busy in their own world. He… didn't like what he was seeing at the moment.
Especially the face of that lawyer!
Couldn't Sarah see clearly that the lawyer was clearly flirting with her?
At times like this, Michael really misses his two sons. He should have come here with the twins so they could protect Sarah from the sneaky guy hiding behind his lawyer job!
Michael suddenly began to doubt the attorney's credibility. Is he really a lawyer?
Michael immediately shook his head. What was he really thinking right now? He'd better focus on reading the contents of the paper and then sign it!
Michael then took a breath, trying to calm himself who was currently feeling something burning inside of him, then returned his focus to reading the contents of the paper.
Meanwhile, the atmosphere became quiet again, Arthur's brain seemed to be thinking what to say to Sarah, while Sarah, who had already taken out her cellphone, was busy continuing to read her journal earlier.
However, she could still feel the gaze of the man sitting in front of him.
"Why do you keep looking at me?" Sarah asked, finally turning to Arthur.
"Is it wrong to see a beautiful sight?" Arthur asked with a sweet smile.
Sarah snorted at that. It really cringes. However, Sarah's lips involuntarily smiled at that.
"Oh! Your face is turning red!" Arthur said with a laugh when he caught the blush.
"Stop it, idiot!" said Sarah waving her hand.
While the two of them were joking, someone who was in that place had also started to feel burning. He really didn't like those two people ignoring him, but Michael realized there was nothing he could do at this point.
He and Sarah had no relationship, and Sarah was a single woman. So it's actually okay if the lawyer is trying to get close to her.
However… Michael couldn't help but feel jealous right now. He didn't like seeing Sarah with him at all. But there was nothing he could do!
He's really pathetic!
"How about after this we go to lunch?"
The question that came out of the man seemed to touch something inside Michael that he had been trying to suppress for a long time. He didn't care if he was flirting with Sarah, at least they were still in the room and he was just teasing her with words without touching.
However, did he just want to take Sarah out to lunch with him?!
Ohh… He can't do that! Not if he's still here!
Without waiting any longer, Michael immediately took the pen that was on the table and immediately put his signature on the paper without reading the rest of the contents and quickly gave it to Arthur before Sarah could answer.
"Ahem," Michael then cleared his throat, deliberately making his voice too loud to get their attention.
"I've finished signing it," Michael said, closing the folder and then handing it to Arthur.
Arthur, who was waiting for Sarah's answer, immediately turned around when he saw this. His facial expression immediately changed when he saw Michael's face who was looking at him with a look of disapproval.
The man let out a smile, but it was really forced and he could see the slightly different look in his eyes.
Arthur's eyes then subconsciously followed Michael's left hand which was now leaning on Sarah's chair. He didn't know if Michael did it on purpose or not, but Arthur could sense that there seemed to be a meaning in the position of the hand.
Arthur's eyes then looked back at Michael, and his lips immediately formed a smile as he took the folder back. The man then opened it and checked if Michael had signed it correctly.
"Okay, it's done," Arthur said and stood up immediately, causing Michael and Sarah to also stand up. Arthur then extended his hand to Michael, then to Sarah.
"So how about it, Sarah?" Arthur asked after letting go of the hand.
"Eh?" Sarah was a little confused.
"You haven't answered my question," Arthur replied with a smile. "How about we have lunch after this?" Arthur asked again.
"That…"
"We have to go somewhere!" Michael cut in quickly before Sarah answered the lawyer's question.
Arthur's gaze then turned back to Michael.
"We have to pick up OUR SON," continued Michael, deliberately emphasizing the word our son and looking at Arthur with a polite smile.
Arthur's gaze then turned to Sarah.
"Yes, Arthur. It's time to pick up my son, it seems I can't have lunch with you," Sarah said, smiling apologetically.
Actually, before Michael cut her off, Sarah would have turned down the invitation because it was time for the Twins to go home and she had to pick up the kids.
So Sarah thanked Michael for saying that first, so it wasn't like she was making excuses.
Arthur nodded and smiled at that.
"Okay, I understand. We can meet and eat together when you have time," Arthur replied gently.
Sarah just nodded, then immediately excused herself to leave, followed by Michael who was relieved to have managed to block his ex-wife's date.
Well… from the lawyer's look, and how he acted, Michael was sure it must not have been just an ordinary lunch. It's a date!
Meanwhile, Arthur's expression looked a little confused as the two of them left the room. Something interesting just happened. Does Sarah's ex-husband still like Sarah?
Well… Arthur didn't care about that at all.
