'That's because I really don't want to be seen with an asshole like you.'

Sarah wanted to say that, but she managed to stop herself from doing so.

She then sighed. f𝗿𝗲e𝒘e𝚋n૦𝘃𝙚𝑙.com

"Sorry, but people here don't know you're my husband," Sarah said while looking at Michael apologetically.

Michael fell silent when he heard that. He knew Sarah had moved to a new hospital. The last time he remembered, Sarah worked in a hospital that was not as big as this.

"But you can just introduce me as your husband," said Michael, who still felt his wife's behavior was strange.

If people didn't really know about him as Sarah's husband, shouldn't she just introduce him? Why did she tried so hard not to be seen with him instead?

"That's… um…" Sarah stuttered a little when she heard that question.

After all, Michael was not her husband. People also knew her status was still single.

How could she introduce Michael as her husband?

"I could be fired!" Sarah suddenly said the words that crossed her mind.

Michael raised his eyebrows when he heard that. Sarah could be fired for telling people he was her husband?

"You know, I was the one operating you. I suddenly saw you in my operating bed and you were in critical condition at that time, so I immediately operated on you. If people find out I operate my own husband, I could get into trouble. At that time, I had no other choice, though," Sarah explained.

It wasn't just an excuse. As a surgeon, Sarah couldn't operate on her own family members, because that would affect the decisions she made later.

Actually, Sarah wouldn't be in that much of a trouble because Michael wasn't her family anymore. He was just her ex-husband.

However, if Michael insisted on introducing himself as her husband, and people finally found out about it, then things would get out of hand.

Sarah had to tell her colleagues that they were already divorced, and she was currently pretending to be married to her amnesiac ex-husband.

Sarah couldn't imagine what would happen if people found out about it. She wasn't going to let it happen.

Michael was silent when he heard Sarah's explanation, as if he was contemplating her words.

"So… please don't ever tell anyone in the hospital that you're my husband, okay?" Sarah asked in a pleading tone.

She didn't know why the situation became like this, but she had to make sure Michael didn't tell anyone about his status as her husband.

"Okay, I get it," Michael replied with a smile. His wife had risked her job to save him, so this was the least he could do to help her.

Sarah breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that. Thankfully, Michael agreed to her request and accepted the excuse she made.

On their way home, there was only silence in the car. Michael didn't want to disturb his wife who had been working all day, so he decided to remain silent while occasionally glancing at Sarah who was staring out the window.

Sarah actually felt very awkward being in the car with her ex-husband. She began to think again about her decision to pretend as Michael's wife.

"Wifey," Michael called softly.

Sarah could feel her body stiffen when she heard Michael call out to her with such a sweet name. She slowly started to move her head from the window towards the left to look at Michael's face.

"You can sleep."

Sarah blinked when she heard the gentle words from her husband.

"You seem very tired today, I also saw you yawn a few times. You can sit comfortably and sleep. I'll wake you up when we have arrived," Michael continued with a smile.

He then turned on the radio to listen to the songs that were playing.

Sarah fell silent when she heard this.

What was wrong with Michael?

Why did his demeanor suddenly become soft like this?

Actually, Sarah was a little wary right now. She was too surprised to see Michael waiting for her and called her by the name 'wifey', that she got carried away and got into Michael's car not knowing where they were going.

Were they going to her in-laws, ah, her ex-in-laws, or were they going to Michael's home?

Sarah had a lot of questions that came to her mind right now, and it made her body feel tense.

Then, a song with a soft beat could be heard from the car speaker. Sarah had never heard that song before, but the song was good.

Sarah's body, which had been tense for so long, was finally able to relax and sit comfortably.

She then subconsciously started leaning her head too to enjoy the song.

Michael glanced at Sarah and smiled when he saw that his wife leaned back on the seat while closing her eyes. It seemed she had fallen asleep.

Michael started to slow down the car because he didn't want to wake his wife up. Sarah must be exhausted, so he let her rest.

***

Sarah had just woken up, and she was walking back and forth from the bedroom and living room. Even though she had rested long enough, her face looked exhausted.

Last night, Sarah couldn't sleep at all. She finally fell asleep when the sun was about to rise.

Sarah then glanced at Michael who was reading the news on his tablet while enjoying his coffee. Their eyes met, but Michael didn't say anything. The man just raised his eyebrows, then ignored her.

Sarah finally chose to sit in the living room after she was tired of walking back and forth. The expression on her face looked troubled. She wanted to open her mouth to say something, but then she closed it again.

"I want a divorce!" Sarah said, looking at Michael firmly. She finally got her courage. She finally said it!

Michael looked silent, the cup containing his coffee which he had lifted to drink, fell silent in the air. He slowly put the glass back down and turned to look at Sarah.

"What did you say? You want a divorce?" asked Michael repeating Sarah's words. His tone was low and calm, but he actually suppressed his emotions.

"Yes! I can't stand living with you anymore. I can't stand this marriage any longer! I want a divorce!" Sarah raised her voice and stood up too. Her breath hitched as she said that, as if her emotions that she had been holding back all this time finally come out.

Sarah had already said it, and it was not the time for her to back down again.

"Okay," Michael said, then turned around to read the news on his tablet again.

"What?"

Sarah was surprised to see Michael's reaction like., She thought Michael would at least try to stop her, or maybe yell at her like usual.

But the man was calm, too calm and agreeing with what she said without arguing back?

"Just take care of it and give me the form," Michael said without turning his head.

***

Sarah opened her eyes. She didn't think she would dream of that day! Unknowingly, Sarah became very upset!

But wait… why did the pillow feel hard and smell good?

"Are you awake? Please don't move like that, you might fall," Sarah immediately looked up and met the face of the man in her dream!
