Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

Alex's blushing face made Michael subconsciously clench his fists and grit his teeth. Right now he was trying hard not to punch the man in the face.

Was the man happy to have seduced someone else's wife? Had their relationship grown so close that even hearing his wife's name made him blush like this?

Have they slept together?!

"I can't tell you guys," Alex replied with a smile still on his face.

"Eh? Why? This man is Doctor Sarah's patient and he wants to discuss something important with her. Don't be stingy like that and just tell me where Doctor Sarah lives," said the nurse and then lightly hit Alex's arm. It seemed the two of them were also quite close.

"I can't tell… because I don't know either."

Alex's answer took the nurse a little by surprise, and so did Michael. This man doesn't know?

"You sure? This is not the time to lie like this!" said the woman in a tone that sounded annoyed.

Michael was so grateful that she was with him right now, because that was what he wanted to say too. Why did the man lie so plainly like that? Did this man know her as Sarah's ex-husband that he wouldn't tell them where she lives?

Had their relationship gone so far that Sarah had told that man about him?

"I am not lying! I really didn't know!" said Alex, who looked serious.

"So you haven't visited doctor Sarah at her residence all this time after your approach? So the rumors turned out to be true! You were rejected by doctor Sarah!" said the woman then chuckled and hit Alex's arm.

Alex just snorted at the woman's mocking laugh.

Meanwhile, Michael, who heard this, looked very surprised. What did they just say?

"You were rejected by Sarah?" asked Michael, repeating what he had just heard and ignoring the two who were mocking each other in front of him.

Alex hastily cleared his throat when he heard that.

"Not like that. That…"

"You were indeed rejected!" cut the woman quickly.

"When he first came here, Alex had tried to approach Sarah, who was also first coming here as a second year resident," the woman explained, then turned to Alex. "That time you approached her so blatantly, I didn't think you would actually be rejected by her."

Michael was silent to hear the woman's explanation. This man approached Sarah after Sarah moved here and not the other way around?

All this time, Michael thought that Sarah met a doctor and then moved with him to this hospital so they could date freely because at the old hospital, some people already knew that Sarah was married.

However… What did he just hear? The man approached Sarah when Sarah had just come to work at this hospital?

"So you don't have anything to do with Sarah? At all?" Michael asked, looking at Alex with wide eyes. He even grabbed the man's arms tightly for him to answer.

​ Alex's forehead furrowed when he felt the pain in his arm being held by Michael, he then immediately let go of the man's hand with a little roughness. What's with this man?

"Yes. What's wrong with you?" Alex asked, looking at Michael with a confused look. The female nurse also looked confused, didn't Michael ask where Sarah lived because he was her patient? Why is that man overreacting like this?

"Forgive me. So you guys don't know where Sarah lives? At all?" Michael asked, starting to sound desperate. At this moment, he had various feelings.

The two of them shook their heads, causing Michael to finally leave the place with an expression on his face that was hard to decipher.

At this time various feelings were felt by Michael. So far, it turns out he was wrong. Sarah… not having an affair like he thought all along.

His wife… not having an affair.

What has he done?

Unknowingly tears flowed out of Michael's cheeks, making the people who looked at him with pity. It seemed that the man had recently lost someone, perhaps he had just lost his wife, and they could only express their condolences.

Well, they are currently in the hospital. There is no other reason for such a grown man to cry like that other than the loss of the person he loves.

Michael's hand suddenly held his chest which felt tight. The things he had done to Sarah all this time flashed through his mind. Not only had he accused her, he had also been rude to her.

The woman who might still love him.

"What have I done?" Michael grabbed his hair in frustration and continued to cry, ignoring that he was still out in public and people were watching him.

Michael didn't care at all. He just made a big mistake, a stupid mistake. He really regretted it.

He really is stupid!

He didn't know how he did it, Michael finally realized that he was now in the car and his brain was starting to take control of him.

"I have to meet Sarah!" Michael muttered under his breath then took out his cellphone again and tried to call the woman's number again. However, a voice that said that the cellphone was not active answered Michael's call.

"Damn it!" Michael threw his cell phone on the dashboard of his car, sending the innocent phone to the ground.

Why didn't Sarah activate her cellphone?

"James! I have to ask for his help!" Looks like Michael's brain this time is working properly, he then immediately took his cellphone and looked for James' number.

"Find me the address where Sarah lives! I want you to find it today!" said Michael when the call was answered by James.

After he finished talking to James, Michael decided to go back to his apartment. Sarah lived there for over a month, there must be a clue he could find as to where the woman was.

***

Michael walked to his bed with slow steps and a listless face. He thought he could at least find a clue, maybe a business card, or whatever would lead him to find her.

However, nothing. He had rummaged through all the drawers, cupboards but found nothing! Sarah might have left here that night so she had nothing with her, but Michael still found nothing.

"Where are you, Sarah?" Michael muttered, holding his hair in frustration.

"If only I hadn't misunderstood… I wouldn't have signed the divorce papers. I should have walked over to her… talked to her… I…" Michael couldn't continue his words as tears rolled down his cheeks again.

If only he hadn't been stupid and a little more mature. He and Sarah probably wouldn't have ended up like this. They may now have become a happy family with a child.

Michael really regretted it.
