Chapter 205 Male Figure



Sarah's facial expression immediately changed when she heard Steve's words. The look on her face made it clear that she didn't like what the man had just said.

Wasn't Steve his friend? She thought Steve would take her side.

"Why do you think so?" Sarah asked and folded her arms.

A smile immediately appeared on Steve's face when he saw Sarah's attitude.

"Easy, mom, you don't have to give me a look when you're scolding your kid," Steve said with a chuckle.

"I mean, it's for the Twins. They haven't had a male figure in their lives all this time, have they?" Steve continued calmly. "You should know how important that is. You used to want to be a pediatric surgeon."

Sarah was silent when she heard Steve's words. So far, her two children do not have a male figure in their lives. Their nanny and kindergarten teachers are also women.

"Unlike other single moms who have their dad, or their brother, you don't have anyone to turn into a male figure for the Twins to see," Steve continued with a careful smile.

Sarah once again fell silent when she heard the facts Steve had given her. Bitter fact.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to upset you," Steve said when he saw the change in Sarah's face.

Sarah shook her head and lowered her hand. "No, you're right. You're just stating a fact."

"So… why don't you try to accept your ex-husband's offer? He may not be able to be a father figure even though he is the father, but he can be a temporary male figure in the Twins' lives for a while, maybe like an uncle figure?"

Sarah was silent when she heard those words. Did she have to do as Steve said?

"Oh yeah, what are you busy with right now? Have you got a job?" Steve asked, suddenly changing the subject as the atmosphere between them became a little awkward.

Sarah looked at the faces of her two children who were currently sleeping in the same bed.

At first the two often quarreled to sleep in the same bed because all this time even though they were in the same room, they had their own bed.

But after three days of being here, the two of them seemed to be getting along and sleeping in the same bed.

Sarah's facial expression looked sad when she looked at the angelic face that had kept her strong until now. Steve's words kept ringing in her head.

"I'm sorry," Sarah muttered quietly.

She'd been trying to fill the void of a father for her two sons, but she didn't seem to be doing enough at all.

As Steve said, she was different.

She rarely even got to spend time with the Twins because she had to earn money for the three of them.

Without realizing it, Sarah's tears flowed out as she recalled how her life had been so far.

She thought she might have done what was best for her children, but it seemed that was simply not enough.

"Raphael! Gabriel!" Sarah looked at her children in turn. "Mommy has something to say."

The Twins, who were eating their breakfast, immediately looked at Sarah with a confused look.

"What's wrong, Mommy?" Gabriel asked.

"Are we in trouble?" asked Raphael. He then looked at his brother who was sitting beside him. "Riel, did you tell Mommy?!" he continued accusingly.

"I didn't tell Mommy!" Gabriel said with a facial expression feel wronged..

Sarah's eyebrows rose when she heard her children's conversation. Are they hiding something from her?

"What's that?" asked Sarah, sounding sharp without realizing it.

The boys  were silent, shut tight their mouths.

"Raphael?" Sarah looked at her eldest son, then turned her gaze to her youngest son. "Gabriel?"

"I promised Rapa not to tell Mommy!" said Gabriel "Mommy said we have to keep our promise!" Gabriel continued then took his food and ate it.

Sarah sucked in her breath when she heard that. She did teach her son that, but she did not expect her son to attack her back with what she taught.

Sarah's gaze then turned to Raphael, who now seemed to be looking down and not daring to look at her face.

"Raphael," Sarah called softly. "Look mommy."

Raphael then slowly raised his head.

"You can tell Mommy what happened," Sarah said, still in her voice as soft as possible. "Mommy won't be mad, promise."

Raphael bit his lower lip, his eyes still looking scared.

"I…I went to the balcony."

"WHAT?!" Sarah subconsciously screamed, making the two small little boy sitting in front of her flinch.

"Sorry Mommy… I was just curious to see the swimming pool. Huaa."

Sarah sighed and immediately stood up and hugged her child who had suddenly been crying.

She did forbid the Twins to go to the balcony because there was a swimming pool that had been filled and the pool was quite deep.

Her two children don't know how to swim and she worries if they run around and suddenly slip.

So she told them not to go out on the balcony.

"Mommy's sorry for screaming, it's okay, Mommy is not angry," said Sarah trying to calm her son.

Meanwhile Gabriel just looked at his brother with a nonchalant look, he was indeed surprised his mommy had shouted, but he knew that he was not in trouble.

"Are you okay? Mommy forbids you to go to the pool for fear that you will fall into the pool. Mommy's sorry for screaming earlier," said Sarah, continuing to stroke her son's back to calm him down.

After a few minutes, Raphael finally stopped crying and Sarah returned to her seat. Her face looked tired. It's still morning, though!

"When did Raphael go out?" Sarah asked curiously because she remembered being with her children and never taking her eyes off them.

"When Mommy was taking a shower," Raphael replied, still sobbing.

Sarah sighed. She thought she could already leave her son to bathe, but it seemed she was gravely mistaken.

It seemed like she did need someone else to stay with her at the moment to keep an eye on them.

"Oh yeah, there's something Mommy wants to tell you," said Sarah, looking back at her two children and asking for their attention.

"Uncle Michael." Sarah cursed in her heart when she referred to Michael as uncle, it was really awkward!

"The old man, will stay here and occupy the second floor. What do you think?" asked Sarah.

Even though she had made up her mind to let Michael live with them, in order for Mr Collins to change his will, Sarah could sense that her children, especially Raphael, did not like Michael. So she should ask his son's opinion first.

The Twins fell silent when they heard their Mommy's words. The old man will live with them?
