"That's why I'm telling you that the situation isn't right. I don't want to date you while I'm still pretending to be Michael's wife. It's not fair to you," Sarah said ending her story.
Steve just kept quiet, his eyes blinking, he couldn't believe what Sarah was saying.
Sarah's ex-husband has amnesia? It's a rare case, but that doesn't mean it can't happen.
It's just Steve had a hard time believing it, he'd never had a case like that before.
"If you're still mad at me, that's fine. I get it," Sarah said suddenly because Steve just kept quiet and didn't say anything.
She was a little sad, but she could understand.
"No, it's not like that. I get it and can understand you," Steve said hastily before Sarah misunderstood.
"It's just I've never had a case of an amnesiac patient before, and… I'm sorry," Steve continued with a guilty look on his face.
Sarah's forehead wrinkled, didn't understand what Steve was talking about.
"I thought… you're a woman who likes to play with other men. Sorry," Steve said honestly.
Sarah fell silent when she heard that. She didn't expect Steve to look at her in that way. She was a little hurt.
However, after she thought about it again. It's natural for steve to think like that
"It's okay, I can understand," Sarah replied with a smile.
"So… we're okay, right?" Sarah asked carefully. She'd already explained it to Steve, and Steve seemed to understand the situation.
So Sarah was curious how the two of them would be after this.
Steve is silent for a moment, before nodding.
"Yeah, we're fine." Sarah smiled in relief at those words. "But..."
Sarah's expression immediately changed when she heard what came after. She looked at Steve with a furrowed brow.
Did Steve not want to be friends with her?
"How long are you going to pretend to be his wife?" Steve asked curiously.
"Eh?" Sarah looked flustered, not expecting Steve to ask that.
"Being friends with you is fun, but I want more, Sarah. I want our relationship to be more than just friends. I want to be your boyfriend," Steve said softly, staring at Sarah without blinking.
Sarah could feel the sincerity of Steve's words, her heart fluttering and she could feel butterflies tickle her stomach as those sea-like eyes stared at her deeply, making her drown there.
"I… am working on it. You know the timing is not right with Mr. Collins in this state. Michael still doesn't know about his father's condition," Sarah replied then took the opportunity to turn her face away from Steve, she felt her face would feel hot if she kept staring at Steve.
"Okay. I understand! I'll be waiting for you!" Steve replied with a smile.
However, Sarah did not really pay attention to what Steve just said because at this moment her forehead was furrowed looking at Mr. Collins.
She had just seen his finger move!
Sarah then immediately stood up, made Steve's brow furrow and asked what was wrong. However, Sarah didn't answer and walked over to Mr Collins.
"Father?" called Sarah in a trembling voice when she saw Mr Collins.
He just opened his eyes!

"You seem happy. Did something happen?" Michael asked softly as he looked at his wife who was walking beside him as they were heading to their apartment.
When Sarah came home she always looked happy, but today she felt happier than usual
"Ah, it's nothing. The weather is good tonight," Sarah replied with a smile and then looked up at the sky filled with stars.
Today everything seems to be going well for her, she has made up with Steve, and Mr Collins is awake!
Even though Mr Collins has to undergo another treatment, the results of his examination look good.
That means what she's doing right now with Michael is coming to an end, and she has to get Michael crazy about her soon.
"You're right. There are many stars in the sky," said Michael who followed Sarah to look up at the sky.
Michael then occasionally looked at Sarah's face, it seems his wife is not too tired tonight, and Sarah is in a good mood.
Maybe he should do it tonight?

"Wifey , I want to talk."
Sarah looked at Michael with a confused look. Right now the two of them had just finished dinner and Sarah wanted to quickly relax and read a book before going to bed.
Michael wanted to talk, couldn't he just say it right away?
However, Sarah decided to sit back down when she saw the serious expression on Michael's face.
"What's wrong?" asked Sarah after sitting down and looking at Michael confusedly.
"That..." Michael looked a little confused, didn't know where to start.
Sarah just kept quiet while raising her eyebrows, waiting for Michael to speak.
"Can we just start the program to have a child?" Michael asked carefully while watching Sarah's facial expression.
Sarah's eyes widened, not expecting Michael to be discussing this again.
"You know I'm healthier now. My head doesn't hurt anymore, and I'm fine when we've had sex. We've done it many times," added Michael.
Even though he'd often come inside when they did it, Michael could sense that several times Sarah had taken the initiative to get him to do it outside.
"Okay," Sarah said with a smile.
"Eh?" Michael blinked his eyes, not expecting that Sarah would agree to his proposal so easily.
"Like you said, you're doing fine. We can start the childbearing program right away. You know, I can't wait to have a baby with you too," Sarah continued with a shy smile.
Michael's lips immediately broke into a wide smile when he heard that. He immediately stood up from his seat and walked over to Sarah with his arms wide open.
Sarah also smiled, then immediately hugged Michael tightly. Her facial expression immediately changed when Michael couldn't see her face.
Mr Collins is awake and it will probably be a minimum of seven days before he can be sent home, well two weeks at the most.
Then now she has to get Michael crazy about her before dumping him.
She didn't have much time left!
And if Michael could be happy with having a baby, Sarah would gladly take the bastard's request.
Of course, she would never allow that to happen.
"Then… can we start work today?" Michael asked as he let go of Sarah's arm.
"Eh?" Sarah looked a little confused.
"Making a baby," Michael replied with a smirk and then immediately carried her bridal style.
Sarah's eyes widened when she heard that, she then immediately hit Michael's chest.
"We just finished eating!" said Sarah, still feeling full.
"That's great! We can exercise to digest the food and burn calories," Michael replied as he climbed the stairs to their room on the second floor.
