Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

218 You Don't Need To Prepare Lunch

Today, like yesterday, the four people who lived in the same house had breakfast together. Michael and Sarah's faces subconsciously smiled at the two children sitting in front of them eating their breakfast voraciously.

"Mommy! Today's food is delicious too!" said Gabriel whose mouth was full of food and then took out his thumb.

"You have to swallow your food first before you talk," Sarah said.

Gabriel then swallowed his food and repeated his words earlier.

"Then say thank you to… Uncle Michael," said Sarah, who was having a hard time saying that.

It was really awkward for her, calling Michael their uncle, but saying he was their Daddy didn't feel right either.

Sarah was completely confused.

"Thank you, uncle!" Gabriel said with a big smile and then continued to eat his food.

Meanwhile Raphael just kept quiet and continued to eat his food. He admitted that this food tasted good, but he would never thank the old man!

"Anytime," Michael replied with a big smile.

Even though he wasn't the one who cooked this breakfast but the chef was the one who cooked it, Michael was happy to get thanks from the sweet boy.

"Oh right, you don't need to prepare lunch later."

Sarah who was sitting next to Michael suddenly spoke up. The expression on her face remained straight forward, as if he was talking to himself instead of telling Michael.

"We'll have lunch outside," he continued.

"Ohh… well. You want to take the Twins for a walk? Can I come with you?" asked Michael hopefully.

Yesterday his relationship with the twins became even closer after he bought him pizza and made them watch their favorite cartoon.

He had also played along with them, although Raphael still looked at him with disdain, but he and Gabriel had truly become closer.

Today Michael was thinking of doing activities together again with the Twins, maybe he could take advantage of the swimming pool.

However, when he heard that Sarah wanted to leave, Michael's brain was immediately filled with ideas for things to do with the Twins.

They could go to the arcade, the playground, or maybe a picnic?

"No, I want to visit a friend," Sarah refused.

After rethinking the message from Steve yesterday, Sarah decided to accept the lunch invitation. She knew it was going to be awkward with Steve's wife, but she knew she couldn't keep avoiding Steve, he helped her so much.

Michael's expression changed when he heard that. Friend?

"Then let me take you," said Michael, still trying.

He didn't know how long it would take Sarah to see her friend. Maybe they just wanted to have lunch at a restaurant and then left.

If that was the case, Michael could carry out his plan to get close to the Twins.

"Thanks but no need, Michael." Sarah finally turned to Michael. "We can take a cab."

Michael just sighed when he heard Sarah's words, as usual she was really stubborn!

It seemed that this afternoon he had to spend some time alone in his apartment.

Sarah looked at the building in front of her with a look of admiration, her mouth even opened slightly when she saw a building that she had only seen from a movie.

Did the cab that brought her come to the right place and unmistakably drop them off?

"Woah… it looks like a palace!" Raphael, who was on her left, looked amazed at the building in front of him.

"Mommy, does the Prince live there?" asked Gabriel who was on the right.

Sarah just nodded in agreement with what her two children said, the building in front of her did look like a Prince would live there because it looked very grand and luxurious.

Sarah never imagined that Steve would live in a two-story mansion.

After coming back to her senses, Sarah immediately walked over to the intercom outside the fence and pressed the bell button to indicate her arrival. A man's voice answered Sarah and Sarah explained that she had come at Steve's invitation.

The gate then opened automatically, making the Twins feel amazed and also a little sacred because the gate opened itself.

Sarah was then invited in by a man who sounded like an old man.

While walking towards Steve's mansion, which by the way was a bit away from the fence, Sarah and the Twins looked around them.

"Mommy! There is a tree!"

"Mommy! There's a fountain!"

The Twins looked excited pointing at what they saw. Starting from parks, trees, even fountains. They didn't even want to leave the fountain and wanted to get their hands wet there.

But Sarah immediately forbade them and gave them a deadly glare, they were guests here and hadn't even seen their hosts, the Twins should at least look presentable.

As soon as they finally arrived at the front door, it immediately opened and the figure of Steve in a t-shirt and trousers greeted them.

"Hey, thanks for coming!" said Steve, smiling broadly at Sarah's arrival.

His gaze then turned to the twins who were slightly hiding behind Sarah, they looked shy.

"Hello… Raphael, Gabriel," said Steve, looking at the children one by one while mentioning their names. "Wow… you guys have become handsome big boys now! The last time I saw you, you were still babies!"

The Twins became less scared when they saw Steve greet and know their names, the man also looked friendly and handsome.

"Are you the Prince?" asked Gabriel sheepishly looking at Steve.

Steve was a little surprised to hear that before finally showing a big smile.

"Do I look like that? Ohh… Sarah… you raised your son well," Steve said with a laugh.

Sarah just snorted at that. It seems because in the past she used to tell fairy tales to her sons, they thought that this mansion was a palace and Steve was a prince.

"No, uncle is not a prince," Steve said with a small smile.

Hearing that, the Twins looked a little disappointed, they thought they would finally meet a Prince in person, but it seems they were wrong.

"Uncle is a King!"

"Oh, stop it!" Sarah said then immediately hit Steve's arm. Wasn't that man too mature to act like that?

While the Twins just stared at their Mommy with disbelief. Their Mommy just hit a King!

"Mommy is really great!" thought both of them staring in awe at their Mommy.

Steve just laughed a little and then invited the three of them to come inside.

Once inside, the Twins looked once again in awe of the luxurious-looking atmosphere. So this is what it's like to enter the palace!

"Ohh… our guest has arrived. Hi everybody."

Sarah and the Twins who were watching Steve's house immediately turned their heads when they heard a woman's voice. Their gazes immediately turned to the woman who was descending the stairs.

"You must be Sarah, Steve tells me a lot about you," Anna said with a smile and held out her hand to Sarah. "I'm glad I finally got to meet you."
