Attracted By My Ex-wife

"Well, have a good rest here. Don't exhaust yourself." The doctor left after he advised Anne to rest for a while.

As soon as the doctor left, someone came into the room. Anne thought that it was a nurse, but she was surprised to see Kevin striding towards her.

How did he know that she was there? She hadn't told him that she was in the hospital.

"Kevin, why are you here?" Looking at him curiously, Anne felt that he was in a bad mood at the moment.

"Are you stupid? You can't even take good care of yourself!" Kevin growled as he walked closer to her. His aura was gloomy and his eyes were filled with anger, but with a hint of worry.

God knew how worried he was when he knew that she had an accident. Why was she so careless every time? She had always made everyone around her worry.

Anne was stunned by Kevin's words. She realized that he got furious because he had worried a lot about the baby inside her. She frowned with the thought.

"I'm sorry. I will be careful next time," she lowered her head and apologized in a sincere tone.

Kevin was also surprised by her attitude this time. She seemed to be more obedient than she used to be. Before, she would even look at him indifferently and defend herself for being in such situation.

He noticed that she looked so debilitated. At least at this moment, he knew how to consider her situation, so he didn't let his temper burst out on her.

He sat next to her and looked away. He said in an unnatural voice,

"How do you feel now? Are you still not feeling well?"

Although he was angry because this woman didn't take good care of herself, he tried to be calm as much as he could as he cared about her health more than anything else now.

"Kevin, don't worry. The doctor already said that the baby is fine," Anne said softly. Even if Kevin appeared calm, she was still a little disappointed with the thought that he only cared for the baby inside her. "The baby? Did I ask for the condition of our baby?"

Kevin asked coldly and looked at Anne unhappily. 'What did she mean? Did she think that it was only the baby inside her whom I cared for?'

There was a moment of silence between them. Confusion was traced all over their faces.

Anne looked at Kevin speechlessly. 'Is this man asking for something she did not mean?'

"Kevin, what you care about the most is the safety of your child, isn't it?" Anne looked at him and said lightly.

Her face looked indifferent, but Kevin was infuriated. How could he still control his temper if she was like this? 'This damn woman always knows how to provoke me.'

Suddenly, he stood up and looked down at Anne. His eyes burned with fury.

"From now on, you should stay in the hospital to protect the baby. You are not allowed to go anywhere!"

"I know. I will keep the baby safe. Don't worry, Kevin."

The most important thing for Anne now was to protect her baby, so she didn't dare to object his order.

The baby? 'Why was she only mentioning the baby? What about herself? She must have thought that I only cared for the baby inside her,' Kevin wondered.

The more he thought of Anne misinterpreting what he said, the more he became irritated. He was afraid that he would not be able to manage his temper any longer, so he just turned around and strode towards the door.

"Kevin, are you leaving now?" Seeing that he was about to leave, Anne tried to stop him.

Kevin stopped and turned around with a sweet smile.

"What? You don't want me to leave?"

His coquettish smile conveyed the good mood he had at the moment. His mood had shifted so quickly, that if Anne had asked for him to stay, he definitely would. "No, that's not what I meant. I just want to ask you something..."

Sometimes, Anne couldn't interpret what was on Kevin's mind. She was left speechless. She didn't even show a bit of what she truly felt. How could he think so?

Kevin looked disappointed and his face turned cold when Anne denied what he said.

"Anne, do you know that a proper coquetry will make a man love you even more?"

Kevin said teasingly. Anne seemed to have provoked his impulse to strangle her to death. 'The level of comprehension of this woman is undeniably low!'

п

Anne was left no words to say. She didn't understand what he meant at all. She recalled what she had just said to him and as far as she knew, she had not said anything to irritate him. What caused his anger all of a sudden?

"Kevin, I just want to ask you something about Emily. I heard that she went abroad for me. Is it true?"

Regardless of what Kevin felt at that time, Anne wanted to know if Emily really left because of her or not.

"Who told you this?"

Kevin was startled after hearing her question. He glared at her for a moment. If he knew the person who had told Anne about it, he would surely not let that person go.

Anne was frightened by his tone. It was Cherry who told her such thing, and she just wanted to confirm it. She couldn't help but feel guilty over the thought that Emily went abroad to protect her.

"No one told me. I guessed it myself."

Anne lied not to protect Cherry, but because she knew that Kevin would not believe her anyway. He would just think that she was deliberately against Cherry. Of course, Cherry would also lie if she was confronted by Kevin. In the end, Anne would be left unlucky and would have to endure all the blame that Kevin would put on her.

Anne had endured too much of these things. She had already predicted the outcome if she told him the truth. She didn't want any trouble for herself anymore.

"Anne, do you think I will believe what you said? Are you some kind of a psychic to know the reason why Emily went abroad?"

Kevin thought that Anne was trying to outsmart him. He couldn't control his temper anymore.

Was this man really eager to know the truth? Anne thought.

"Tell me! Who told you this?"

Kevin thought that Anne's angst over Emily's matter had almost caused her to have a miscarriage. He swore that he would make the person who told Anne such thing to pay.

"If I tell you that it was Cherry who told me, will you believe me?"

Kevin furrowed his eyebrows as he stared at Anne. Her tone was sarcastic, but there was still a glimmer of hope in her that Kevin would believe her.

"I believe you!"

After a long time, Kevin had finally sensed that there was something wrong about the attitude of Cherry. He could tell that she was hostile towards Anne.

He was blinded by the kindness that Cherry had showed him all the time and thought that she would never do something to hurt Anne, so he never suspected her. However, it was beyond his expectation that Cherry would take the initiative to tell Anne about the matter of Emily, which caused Anne to get too emotional and end in the hospital.

Anne looked at Kevin in surprise. She didn't expect his answer. She thought that he would always stand for his sweetheart and would never take time to believe her. But what happened now? What made him believe her?

"Have a rest. I'll be back later,"

Kevin said to her in a calm tone. He seemed to have finally overcome his anger.

The car sped all the way back to the villa. At this moment, Cherry was having her coffee in the living room, waiting to hear about Anne's miserable condition.

But when the maid told her that Kevin had come back, she immediately ran to the kitchen to make some soup for Anne, pretending that she really cared for her.

Kevin went straight to the kitchen when the maid told him that Cherry was there.

"Cherry."

Staring at Cherry who was pretending to be busy at the moment, Kevin somehow felt slightly absurd. It was so unusual for him to face his sweetheart with an irritated look. "Kevin, you're home!"

Cherry looked at him in surprise.

Kevin just looked at her silently. His sharp eyes made her a bit scared.

"Kevin, you should have known about what happened to Anne, right?" She showed a hint of guilt in her eyes, as if she was truly worried about Anne.

"Yes." Kevin had no expression on his face.

"Kevin, it's all my fault. I didn't take good care of Anne," Cherry said softly trying to get his sympathy.

Kevin hated to see her pitiful. Every time she felt sad, he managed to restrain himself from losing his temper. Cherry had always used this advantage to pretend to be aggrieved in front of him. "Why did you tell Anne about Emily? Didn't I say that no one was allowed to mention it in front of her?"

This time, Kevin was not affected by the hypocrisy of Cherry. He only felt anger in his heart.

Cherry used to be a kind and generous woman in his heart, but this was a different case. He felt very disappointed.

"K Kevin... "Cherry stammered and looked at him in shock. He already knew...

She was flustered at the moment, and had a hard time to think of a reason to cover herself up.

"Kevin, I didn't mean it. It was a slip of the tongue. Please believe me. I really didn't mean to tell Anne about it,"

Cherry explained anxiously, fearing that Kevin might not believe her this time.

If he knew that she told it to Anne on purpose, she would never know what he would think of her. She was so afraid that the impression she had built up in his heart for such a long time would be ruined. "Do you know that what you told her had almost cause her to have a miscarriage? I have always thought that you are a considerate and kind-hearted woman..."

Kevin looked at her with discourage in his eyes. He wanted her to understand that what he needed was a kind-hearted woman, not a petty one.

"Kevin, I really know that I was wrong. I was so careless to say such things to Anne. Please forgive me."

Cherry ran to him and hugged him tightly. She was so afraid of the discontentment in his tone.

"Cherry you should know what I meant. I don't like to be manipulated by women."

Cherry did her best to explain that she had accidentally spilled up, but Kevin did not believe her at all. Still and all, Cherry was so important to Kevin, so he was careful of the words that came out from his mouth. ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
