The adults who heard that were immediately shocked. More specifically Mrs Collins. She opened her mouth in disbelief when she heard what her grandson had just said.

She is evil?

Okay, she admits she did look at Sarah annoyed because she seems like she doesn't want to try to help her get close to her grandson. However, can such a thing be said to be evil?

"Raphael!" Sarah screamed in disbelief. She then turned to Mrs Collins to see the old woman's expression. She could only hope that the old woman would not criticize Raphael or scold her son.

"Why talk to Grandma like that?" Sarah asked, looking back at her son.

"I'm telling the truth, Mommy!" said Raphael, feeling this was unfair because his Mommy didn't seem to believe him.

"That…" Sarah was silent when she heard the answer from her son. She knew her son was telling the truth because that old woman might look at her with annoyance when she wasn't looking at her. However, she didn't know how to handle this situation.

"I want to see Batman!" said Raphael suddenly when he saw his Mommy just silent. His small hand then moved to wipe away the tears that were about to come out. He was really disappointed!

He didn't want to be here anymore!

Sarah's expression looked very surprised when she heard what her son had just said. They'd only been here for a short time, but he wanted to leave already?

"Dad, mom, sorry but we have to go first. Actually, before we came here I had promised to take the Twins to go on an outing," said Michael suddenly, who had been silent all this time.

His son had already said the secret code to get out of here, so he'd better do that right away.

"Hah? Oh? All right," said Mr Collins with a smile. He then turned to the little boy who was currently sleeping leaning against his chest.

​ Although it was a pity when they just arrived, it couldn't be helped.

"See you later, Grandpa!" said Gabriel waving his hand when Michael helped him to get down from there.

After that, Michael and Sarah then immediately said goodbye and left the room.

Meanwhile, Mrs Collins remained silent. She was still a little shocked by what had just happened.

"Why are you just keeping quiet?" asked Mr Collins, looking at his wife.

Again, Mrs Collins was silent.

"Are you surprised by what my grandson said?" asked Mr Collins with an amused smile.

Mrs Collins turned to her husband and gave her an annoyed look when she could hear the old man stifling a laugh.

"I mean, how many times have I told you to treat Sarah well?" asked Mr Collins seriously.

"They've been living with Sarah all this time, and seem to really love their mom. You can see how the kids stick to her," continued Mr Collins.

Mrs Collins was silent when she heard this.

"So, you better start changing a bit if you want to be close to our grandson. They seem very smart. Ahh… too bad they have to leave."

Again, no answer left Mrs Collins' lips. However, she listened to the words her husband had just said. Does she have to do that?

"You want to go out?" Michael asked when he saw Sarah had just come out of her room and she looked a little different.

It's nine o'clock now. Where will Sarah go?

Sarah, who had just come out of her room, was a little surprised when she heard Michael's voice from behind her. She then turned and saw the man was holding a can of beer and his hair was still wet from the shower.

"Ah, yes," Sarah answered briefly and then looked at her cellphone which had just vibrated, indicating that she got a message.

It's from Arthur.

After their date two weeks ago, she and Arthur were still texting each other, and today Arthur wanted to ask her out again.

To be honest, Sarah felt a little reluctant to accept the invitation. What's more she had already told Michael that she would give the man a chance.

However, after Sarah thought about it again. She also said the same thing to Arthur. To give the man a chance.

Even though she did it back then because she didn't know what had happened six years ago, still she had said to give the man a chance.

After all, Michael is not her boyfriend. So there doesn't seem to be a problem with going on a date with Arthur.

With that in mind, Sarah finally accepted the date offer.

Michael licked his lips when he saw Sarah was replying to a message. It's Saturday, and Sarah wants to go out in the evening. Wasn't it obvious that she was going on a date?

Michael immediately shook his head. Last week, he assumed the same thing and it turned out he was very wrong. Sarah went to see Anna.

"Who are you going to see?" Michael asked and took a sip of his beer. Trying to look indifferent.

Sarah licked her own lips. For some reason, she found it difficult to answer that question.

"Arthur," Sarah finally answered.

She didn't know why she felt this way, but it was better if she told the truth.

"Ohh…" Michael said, trying to keep his expression from looking sad.

However, he immediately shook his head. This is no time to act cool.

"Well… hope you have a bad date," Michael said, deciding to share his feelings.

"Eh?" Sarah was a little surprised to hear that. Did she hear it wrong?

"I mean, I just want you to enjoy when you're on a date with me, not with other guys," Michael said, blushing with embarrassment. He really sounded so pathetic right now.

"Ohh…" was all Sarah could say. Did Michael just say he was jealous?

"Then I'll go first," Sarah said awkwardly and then immediately left when she saw Michael nod his head.

Right now, Sarah was thinking about a lot of things. Michael was jealous, right? The man who was usually too shy to admit that he was jealous had just implied that he was.

Even though it was a little childish, she couldn't stop smiling at this time.

"So… how was tonight?" Arthur asked when he finally drove Sarah home.

After learning that Sarah had dinner with the children first, Arthur stopped taking her for dinner dates. He drove his car into one of the parks and put down a blanket and sat down to look at the stars.

"That…" Sarah didn't answer right away. She wanted so badly to say that she was having fun, because even though they were just looking at the stars, they were talking and it was fun for her.

Talking to Arthur is always a pleasure. Maybe it's because he is a lawyer that he has insight and doesn't just talk about uninteresting topics. Well… she's always been attracted to smart men. She also never got bored when she talked to Michael, or Steve.

However, even though she was having fun. Sarah was still a little bothered by Michael. She tried not to think about him when she was on a date with Arthur, but Michael's childish words rang clear in her mind.

"I'm having fun. Thank you for taking me to see the stars," Sarah said sincerely with a smile.

After thinking about it, it would be unfair to Arthur if she didn't praise him. Even though it's because of Michael she wasn't having fun at all, but it was about 70% she had fun with Arthur tonight.

Arthur smiled in relief when he heard that. He could sense that something was bothering Sarah. Maybe she didn't like their date tonight, and that worried him a little.

Thankfully it was just a feeling.

"I'm glad to hear that," Arthur replied. "It's a shame we can't be together longer," Arthur said in a pitiful tone.

If he didn't know Sarah had a child waiting for her, Arthur wanted to ask her out for the night. However, Sarah was like Cinderella, who had to be sent home before 12 o'clock at night.

"Eh?" Sarah was a little confused when she heard that. "You want to be with me longer?" Sarah asked confusedly.

By now they were already in front of the apartment building, but she wasn't the one who asked Arthur to send her back.

Arthur chuckled when he saw Sarah's confused expression.

"Of course I would like to spend the night with you if necessary. We can drive around and visit various places that are open," said Arthur explaining the idea.

"However, you have your kids waiting for you. What if they suddenly have a nightmare and look for you?" Arthur asked back.

He used to interact with the kids in the orphanage. So he knows that there are kids who wake up from nightmares.

"Ah..." Sarah opened her mouth. She didn't think Arthur would even think about it.

If she lived alone, she would probably think the same thing. However, Michael was there, making her less worried.

"Oh right," Arthur then took something in the back seat.

"Here's a present for your kids. You said they like Batman, right?" said Arthur as he handed Sarah a large plastic bag.

Sarah was once again surprised. She didn't think Arthur would remember that. On the last date, she did tell Arthur that.

To be honest, she had thought about ending it with Arthur and waiting for the perfect time to talk about it.

However, she became shaky again. Not only was Arthur being nice to her, he was also considerate of her kids.

What should she do?
