"Information? What information?" Michael's brow furrowed at this. The expression on his face looked very confused.
He was sure he didn't need any information that could help him. Even if there was, it certainly wouldn't come from Anna.
The corners of Anna's lips lifted into a smile, she knew that Michael might not believe her, but she was sure the information she had could make Michael help her.
"Last Saturday, I met Sarah, your ex-wife," said Anna, starting her story.
Michael's lips parted before his facial expression became relieved. So last Saturday Sarah went to see Anna instead of going on a date with the attorney.
"Why? What are you talking about?" asked Michael curiously.
There is one thing in common between Anna, and Sarah. They are both his ex. Did these two get together to talk badly about him?
Michael immediately shook his head, it was absolutely impossible. But… it could be, right?
"Why are you guys curious about what we're talking about?" said Anna, who didn't expect Michael to say the same thing as her husband. "It was a talk between women!"
"In that case, what information are you talking about? To help me," Michael said curiously.
Looks like Anna got something when she met Sarah, and decided to tell him. However, what is it?
Anna's smile immediately returned to her beautiful face when she saw Michael's impatient expression.
"Six years ago, your ex-wife thought that we were engaged."
Actually Anna was thinking hard whether she should tell Michael about it or not. After all, it didn't feel right to tell others what she had heard from other people.
However, Anna sees this as an opportunity for her career. She needed something WOW to let the world know that model Anna was back, and Collins was the perfect place for that.
But… Anna realized that many of the new models might have contracted with Collins, and business-wise, they were better than her, which was old news.
So Anna wanted to ask Michael for a favor, in exchange for this information she was about to give. She could apologize to Sarah later about this.
Besides, Anna wasn't sure if Michael didn't know about this. It was still an 80% chance Michael didn't know because Sarah heard it from Mrs Collins.
"What?!" Michael's eyes widened. "What kind of bullshit is that!"
Anna smiled at the reaction. So her guess was right, Michael didn't know it.
"I mean, how could she even think about that?! She's so stupid! Ahh… really!" said Michael, annoyed and frustrated why Sarah believed that.
Was that the reason she didn't want to start over with him six years ago? In that case, that woman really stupid!
"Is there news on the internet that says we are engaged?" asked Michael with chest heaving up and down, his hands began to tighten into fists.
He didn't really check the news articles that appeared when his relationship with Anna came out, and just told James to deal with it.
If it was because of a news article from an obscure company, Michael will repay them many times over!! Ah no! Even though they were a well-known news company, he would also repay them!
"No. She didn't know it from the internet," said Anna trying to stay calm.
"Then from whom?" asked Michael furiously.
"Are you going to help me?" Anna asked back and didn't answer the question.
Michael gritted his teeth when he heard things. He never thought that Anna would succeed in getting him into her hands.
"Okay! You have my word!" said Michael irritably. "So tell me now where did Sarah hear that nonsense?!" asked Michael who sounded very angry.
Anna was a little taken aback by that. It was the first time she had seen an angry Michael, and it scared her a little.
"She heard it from your mother."
"What?" asked Michael, his expression changing when he heard that. Did he hear wrong?
"She heard it from Mrs Collins, your mother, Michael."
Michael's mouth opened when he heard that. He was shocked.
"My mom? Why? I mean, she shouldn't believe that!" said Michael who currently looks confused and also frustrated.
"Well… Mrs. Collins wants us to get married," said Anna, who could guess why the old woman did it.
"Are you that stupid? She heard it from your mother, of course she would believe it! It's not like she heard it from a stranger! I would even believe that!" said Anna with a snort, trying to defend Sarah..
The woman then suddenly stood up and took her bag.
"My business with you is done. I'm waiting for a call from Collins. Remember, the fall edition! I know there's only two weeks left, so you'd better call me immediately!" After seeing Michael's head nod, Anna immediately left the room.
Meanwhile, Michael was still sitting on the sofa. His expression was confused and full of questions.
Why did his mother do that? Was it because his mother really wanted him to marry Anna?
After learning that Raphael and Gabriel are his children, something is actually bothering Michael.
Sarah had obviously been pregnant six years ago and maybe that was the reason she broke up with the blonde doctor. If so, she should have come to see him, right?
However, the woman did not come to see him, and instead went far away from him.
Was the reason she didn't come to him and cost him five years of being a father because Sarah thought he was engaged to Anna?
Then… Did that woman reject him six years ago also for that reason?
Just because of that?!
Michael immediately shook his head. If he only wondered like this, he would never find the answer!
He had to go see Sarah and ask her about it!
Michael then immediately stood up and left the room.
"Where do you want to go?" James asked when he saw Michael looking in a hurry.
However, Michael did not answer his secretary. He didn't care if he had an important meeting this morning, or if he had documents that required his signature. He had something more important than that!

Sarah, who was relaxing on the sofa, was surprised when the apartment door opened and Michael's figure appeared with an annoyed look on his face and walked over to him.
"Sarah," Michael called, trying to contain his anger.
"What is it? Why do you look like that?" Sarah asked, raising her eyebrows.
"Six years ago…" Michael's voice trembled, trying to contain his anger. "Did you hide your pregnancy because you thought I was engaged to Anna?" asked Michael, still standing in front of Sarah.
Sarah was a little surprised to hear that. "How did you know that?" Sarah asked confusedly.
"Ah, Anna told you," said Sarah, who could guess where Michael knew it. So Anna and Michael become friends like she was with Steve?
"Just answer me, Sarah. Did you do it because of that?" Michael asked with clenched fists.
Sarah bit her lower lip, unsure if she should answer that. Before she finally nodded her head.
Michael's mouth opened in disbelief when he saw that. He then ruffled his hair in frustration.
"You really are stupid! Argh! Well then, if you don't know about it, will you accept me when I ask you to start over at the orphanage?"
