Sarah lowered her head while ruffling her brown hair, her mind in complete turmoil at the moment. She didn't know what to do.
"Okay," said Sarah, who raised her head again and looked at Mr Collins.
She knew that she would regret accepting this request. But it seemed she would regret it even more if she didn't accept what might be Mr Collins' last wish.
She's not doing this for Michael, but it's for Mr Collins.
Mr Collins immediately smiled upon hearing this.
"But ... I have one condition," said Sarah, put a smile on the face of Mr. Collins disappeared.
"What is it? Ahh ... are you talking about the pay? Of course I'll pay you," said Mr. Collins smiled.
She shook her head.
"No, it's not like that. I don't need the money. You don't have to pay me, "said Sarah.
"I'll take a look at the tumor on your brain first, and if I think surgery can be done, please do it," Sarah continued firmly.
Sarah knew that Mr Collins was doing this not only to not want Michael to experience the same thing again, or out of affection for Michael, but this he did for the sake of his company.
Maybe Mr Collins had unknowingly mentioned that Michael should lead the company again, which was the main reason he had asked Sarah to do this and Sarah heard it clearly.
Sarah knew very well that Mr. Collins loved his company very much, and would do anything for it, including perhaps lying to her about a brain tumor, and Sarah would not allow herself to be taken advantage of that way.
She wasn't the naive woman she used to be anymore.
"OK. I will do it. I'm glad you've changed, Sarah," said Mr. Collins who seemed to realize what Sarah was thinking.
Sarah just smiled shyly when she heard that. Does she look that obvious?
Well… she didn't want to accuse Mr Collins of lying to her, but there was a slight chance that the old man would do so for the sake of his company.

"He really has a tumor in his brain," muttered Sarah, who was currently looking at the scan results from Mr. Collins. Her eyes involuntarily became teary again when she saw the medium-sized tumor and was in a difficult place.
What Mr Collins said turned out to be true.
"Looks like I do have a brain tumor," said Mr. Collins who had just come over to Sarah and saw Sarah's expression.
"Mr Collins!" Sarah called softly, her tears finally falling when she saw the old man's face. Right now her view of Mr Collins was completely different.
"It's all right, Sarah," said Mr Collins gently.
Sarah shook her head.
"The location of the tumor is indeed in a difficult place, but it can still be cured. I will consult with my professor first," said Sarah and then wiped her tears. She wouldn't just give up.
Sarah is sure that one of her professors who is also a doctor at this hospital can help provide input regarding the operation that will be carried out by Mr. Collins.
"Okay. If so, when can you meet Michael? Is he now able to go home?" asked Mr Collins.
Sarah fell silent when she heard this. That's right. She had to pretend she was still Michael's wife.

"Wifey!" called Michael who looked cheerful when he saw Sarah who returned to visit him.
"How are you?" Sarah asked with a smile and walked over to Michael who was still lying in the hospital bed.
"I feel good. When can I go home?" asked Michael who allowed himself to be examined by Sarah.
"I'll check on you first," Sarah said and began to do her examination.
Throughout the examination, Michael was silent, but his gaze continued to stare at Sarah.
"What?" Sarah asked as her eyes met Michael's again.
"I just realized it, but you look sexy in this doctor's uniform," Michael said with a seductive smile.
It made Sarah roll her eyes and hit Michael's arm lightly.
"Patient, I'm your doctor, okay? Don't think anything weird," Sarah said firmly.
How could the cold, jerk Michael turn out to be like this?
"Well…. You know… the patient doctor genre exists not without reason, we might be able to do it ma'am doctor," Michael replied with a grin and started reaching out his hand to grab Sarah's ass.
"Are you crazy?" said Sarah who hit Michael's arm again and then immediately took a few steps back and glared at Michael.
Some patients had teased her before, but Sarah never thought she'd get that from her ex-husband.
Michael just smirked when Sarah hit him lightly, seeing his wife's shy face like that made him even more excited.
However, before he could open his mouth again to tease his wife, the door to his room opened and his father and mother appeared.
Mrs. Collins who had just returned from buying food, immediately opened her eyes wide when she saw Sarah who was in her son's room.
She immediately approached Sarah with long footsteps.
"Hey! What are you doing here?! Are you checking my son?! Look at this shameless woman!! I already asked the hospital to change the doctor who took care of my son, but how dare you still come here!" cursed Mrs Collins harshly.
She'd even been prepared to slap or pull that lowly woman out in the absence of her husband or Michael.
"Mama! What are you doing? How can you say that to Sarah!" said Michael who immediately got out of bed and stood in front of Sarah, as if protecting her.
Mrs. Collins was surprised to hear her son's behavior yelling at her. However, the same thing happened to Sarah.
She was surprised when Michael defended her like this. All this time Michael had always been silent and be in the middle, not wanting to be on either side.
Does his amnesia make Michael's character also change?
Sarah immediately shook her head, this is not the time to think about that.
She then looked at Mrs Collins and hastily changed her expression to one of fear.
"What do you mean… Mama!" said Sarah quietly and timidly, making Mrs. Collins who had been staring at Michael, immediately looked at Sarah with wide eyes.
"Of course I came here to check on my… husband. Have you forgotten that I am also a doctor, mama?" Sarah asked, blinking her eyes.
Mr Collins who was behind him smiled when he heard what Sarah said. It seemed that the woman had no problem pretending to be her daughter-in-law anymore.
"What?!" cried Mrs. Collins, unable to contain herself any longer. She then immediately approached Sarah and grabbed her hair.
Looks like this lowly woman has really gone mad to say such nonsense!
