Cohabitation With My Ex-Husband

Michael finally decided to return to his office. Right now he couldn't do anything in his apartment, and crying over his actions would do nothing.

When he passed James, whose desk was at the front of his room, Michael immediately asked if he had found Sarah's place.

Michael sighed when he heard James' answer, he then again warned James to look for it and the deadline is today.

As soon as he arrived at his room, Michael immediately took a bottle of whiskey that was in the corner of his room and poured him a drink.

Right now he was in dire need of alcohol.

He then walked back to his leather chair with the bottle and glass in his hand.

"I really am a fool!" Michael cursed, putting the glass down and loosening his tie a little which now felt like it was suffocating him.

He looks messed up.

Michael's head then lifted and looked at the door someone was knocking on. He tried hard to control his facial expression so as not to look pathetic, then motioned for the person to come in.

It seemed, there was someone who needed his approval again.

A blonde haired woman appeared behind the door carrying a tray of pastries.

"Ohh… you're drinking alcohol," the woman said when she saw the bottles and glasses on Michael's table. A smile was clearly visible on her face.

"What are you doing here, Elizabeth?" Michael asked, then turned his gaze to his glass and lifted it and drank it. His voice sounded tired.

Right now, he didn't want anything to do with her at all.

"I only brought you snacks in the afternoon because I thought you needed them, but it looks like you need something else." Elizabeth let out a seductive smile then walked slowly towards Michael.

As soon as she arrived beside him, she immediately grabbed Michael's chair then turned it around to face her.

Elizabeth then kneeled in front of Michael and her hands began to feel the man's thighs then slowly went to the zipper of his pants.

"I'm not in the mood, Elizabeth," Michael said, brushing her hand away before she touched the zipper.

"Just relax. I'll do everything," Elizabeth said in a voice that was deliberately hoarse with a moan and then tried to unzip the man again to take out what was inside.

"I told you I'm not in the mood," Michael said, slapping the woman's hand roughly and quickly turned back in his seat.

Elizabeth's expression looked surprised to hear that. She didn't think Michael would reject her at all.

"Did you get another woman, Michael?" asked Elizabeth who finally stood up and walked to another table that was there and began to arrange the pastries she had brought.

Her voice sounded a little sarcastic. She didn't think Michael would get a new woman right away after breaking up with the model.

"Whether I date or not is none of your business, Elizabeth," Michael said coldly, glaring at the woman intently.

"I told you our relationship is only limited to sex partners. Don't cross your line."

"Okay okay, you look very scary. It will make you old quickly," said Elizabeth with a seductive smile on her face.

She then immediately tidied up what she had brought and walked towards the door.

Before she opened the door, Elizabeth looked back one more time, staring at Michael who was busy drinking and didn't look at her at all.

The woman's hands suddenly clenched into fists at the man's nonchalant behavior.

"I'll definitely make you look at me, Michael! You're mine!"

***

Michael was sitting on the sofa in his apartment, one hand holding his cell phone and repeatedly dialing the number he had tried to call several times, but the number was still not active.

He then looked at the time shown by his cellphone screen, 11:40.

"James should have called me," Michael muttered, tapping his fingers on the chair. His face looked impatient, but he decided not to call James and waited for the man to contact him first.

11:45

11:53

11:58

Suddenly, the cellphone he was holding vibrated and showed the name of the person he was waiting for.

That's James.

"Hello, how is it?" Michael held his breath as he waited for the man's response. He unconsciously swallowed his own saliva.

"I've found it, Mrs. Smith's address." Michael breathed a sigh of relief when he heard what the man said.

As always, James is reliable!

Michael then immediately stood up when he heard this and came out of his apartment when he heard the address that James said.

He had no idea that Sarah actually lived nearby! He could immediately meet the woman by foot!

Not long after, Michael was standing in front of a door. He could feel his heart beating fast and he swallowed his saliva many times.

There is Sarah in there, the person he wants to meet, but… what was he supposed to say?

Michael immediately shook his head, this is not the time to hesitate like this!

Michael's hand then lifted and pressed the doorbell attached to the door.

"..."

Michael pressed it again.

"..."

"Is she still outside?" Michael thought when he didn't hear a sound or something.

However, hasn't Sarah resigned? She couldn't have just gotten a job the same day she resigned, could she?

"Did something happen to her there?" Michael suddenly started to panic, he knocked on the door and tried to call Sarah's name, or ring the bell many times, but his efforts were in vain, the door didn't open at all.

Well, there's an open door, the one next to Sarah's apartment, the man complains that Michael is too noisy and should just use the bell.

Michael then tried to ask if he had seen Sarah today, but the person said that he rarely saw the resident in that room.

Michael was getting more and more panicked, what if something happened to Sarah? Maybe she's sick?

Michael's hand then immediately took his cellphone which was in his trouser pocket and called James again, telling him to call the owner of this apartment to open the door to Sarah's apartment.

"That…" James sounded surprised and doubtful when he heard Michael's request.

Isn't this a little too much? Michael wants to break into Sarah's apartment without permission?

"Just do it! Offer the owner money until he wants to do it!" Michael snapped in annoyance.

***

Michael immediately walked in with a worried look on his face when Sarah's apartment door finally opened.

"Sarah!" he called, then immediately looked around looking for the woman's figure in the simple apartment.

Michael's gaze then turned to a door, it seemed to be Sarah's bedroom. He then went straight to the door and opened it.

"Sarah!"

Michael had to swallow his disappointment when he saw the room was empty, not as he expected.

"Is she not home yet?" Michael thought and then looked around, trying to find any clues to Sarah's whereabouts.

This was Sarah's apartment, Michael could find Sarah's old clothes that he remembers, as well as books on health.

However, where is the woman?
