Chapter 223 Dinner With Mother
"Raphael! Gabriel! Let's have dinner!" called Sarah who had just put their dinner on the table.
The Twins who were playing on the floor, immediately stood up and walked towards the dining table and immediately took their seats.
In fact, Sarah was a little surprised to see them sitting in the same place again, as if already claiming it was their seat.
"Mommy, isn't the old man eating with us?" asked Raphael after swallowing his food and looking at Sarah who had already eaten.
That little boy then saw that there was no food prepared in front of the empty chair at the dining table.
Sarah was a little surprised to hear that the question came from the eldest and not the youngest.
Didn't her son dislike Michael?
"No, the same as this morning. We're not going to eat together with Michael's uncle," said Sarah, who still felt awkward to mention Michael as uncle. But to call Michael an old man doesn't feel right either.
Sarah was really at a loss as to what to call Michael in front of her kids.
"Why? Have you started getting close to Uncle Michael?" Sarah asked with a mischievous smile.
After seeing Michael trying to get close to her children, Sarah felt a strange feeling in her chest seeing how her ex-husband was playing with their children.
Sarah, who had wanted to forbid Michael from getting too close to her children, turned away when she saw that.
Even though the children didn't know that they were actually playing with their father, at least they had experienced what it was like to play with a father.
"No!" said Raphael, shaking his head exaggeratedly. "I'm glad we don't eat together with that old man anymore!"
Sarah just laughed a little at how her oldest son acts.
Ever since they watched the cartoon that time, Sarah could see that her son was starting to open up a bit to Michael.
Well… Michael showed them a cartoon that his Mommy rarely showed even though it was his favorite, so Sarah could understand why Raphael had not hated Michael so much.
Sarah's smile suddenly disappeared when she remembered that Michael was like that too, always refusing to admit because he was too cool for that.
Sarah's gaze then subconsciously turned upwards, trying to see if Michael was staring at them from the second floor with an eager face to join.
"Unc… The old man hasn't come back yet, Mommy," Gabriel said, watching Sarah.
"Eh?" Sarah was a little surprised to be caught trying to find Michael and hastily looked at her son.
"Uncle Michael isn't back yet?" Sarah asked again.
Gabriel nodded.
"I've been waiting for unc… the old man, but the old man hasn't come home yet."
Sarah fell silent hearing this. She thought Michael was currently hiding on the second floor because today was the day they weren't going to eat together, but he wasn't home yet?
"Did something happen?" Sarah thought with furrowed brows.
When she used to live with Michael, he always came home earlier than her who came home at 8 pm.
So Sarah felt a little strange when she found out the man wasn't home yet.
Sarah immediately shook her head, whether Michael wants to go home or not is none of her business!
***
Michael's black Mercedes-Benz has just entered the parking lot of one of the most famous restaurants in London.
This afternoon, he suddenly received a message from his mother asking him to have dinner together at a restaurant.
Michael immediately replied to the message by scolding his mother to stop trying to set him up with another woman.
But this time Mrs Collins insisted it was really dinner and she would be there.
[We haven't seen each other very often. Can't you come to dinner with your old mother?]
Michael sighed as he read the message.
After his father became sick, his mother did live alone and she must have been lonely.
He finally replies that he will come. After all, that woman was his mother. Even though he had argued with his mother several times, she was the one who gave birth to him.
As soon as he entered the restaurant, Michael was immediately ushered into a private room.
Michael was a little confused when he heard that and started to get suspicious.
Something seems fishy!
He already found it strange that his mother didn't tell him to come home and go to a restaurant, then they would eat in a private room?
Even though they were from wealthy families, they never once ate in a restaurant in a private room.
That's what Michael saw in his father, and that's what he did too.
However, Michael's facial expression immediately changed as soon as the door opened and he saw his mother sitting in the room.
"Ohh… looks like mom really wants to have dinner together," Michael thought when he saw his mother.
He thought his mother would lie to him again and this would be the dinner for the date prepared by his mother.
However, Michael's facial expression immediately changed to one of surprise when he saw a woman sitting in front of his mother.
It's Elizabeth!
"You..." Michael's voice sounded furious and his facial expression was cold when he saw the woman.
He thought that after almost a month ago he broke up with her, Elizabeth would understand and behave..
But she actually met his mother?!
"You've come! Come sit here, babe. Mother and I have been hungry for a long time waiting for you," Elizabeth said with a happy smile and patted the empty chair next to her, telling Michael to sit there.
Mrs. Collins' forehead twitches when she heard the woman call her mother again, as did Michael who didn't expect her to call his mother that.
Michael's gaze then turned to his mother, trying to see his mother's reaction.
"Sit down, Michael," Mrs Collins said, trying to look relaxed.
Michael was a little surprised to see his mother's response, his gaze then turned to Elizabeth who was now looking at him with a smile.
Michael then walked over to them, but he just stood there and didn't sit there.
"I don't know what this woman said to you, but we already broken up!" said Michael firmly.
He then looked at Elizabeth who looked a little surprised.
"Babe? What are you doing? We're in front of your mother," said Elizabeth who looked very awkward.
"Sorry mother, like I said before, Michael thinks that you still don't approve of our relationship."
Mrs Collins sighed when she heard that. She then looked at Michael, the only child she had been proud of all this time.
But why is her son always attracted to a woman like this?
"I will approve of your relationship, Michael. You can date her."
Elizabeth smiled triumphantly when she heard Mrs. Collins' words.
Now that she had the blessing of Michael's mother, he couldn't possibly break up with her!
