Attracted By My Ex-wife

Sam didn't pick up the phone immediately. Instead, he lifted his gaze to stare at Anne. "If you're not hungry, don't force yourself to eat anything. That'll hurt your body and your mood."

Anne's face and eyes betrayed no emotion. Since he gave the okay, she stopped eating.

But Emily looked at him in disbelief, her eyes wide in surprise. She looked like she wanted to argue with him. Sam ignored Emily and answered the phone.

"What's the matter?" Sam struggled to keep his cool.

On the other end of the line, Kevin was yelling at Sam, "I need a copy of the test results on my desk the moment you get it!"

Hearing Kevin's angry voice, Sam resolved to keep calm. His black eyes were horribly cold. "See you at the Ode To Joy in an hour. I have something to tell you."

"Okay." With a smile at the corners of his mouth, Kevin looked at the sunlight from his office, without any warmth on his face. "What a coincidence. I have something to say as well."

He hung up the phone right after that, and his head was filled with nothing but rage.

Sam was calm, sitting in his car, acting like he'd just gotten a telemarketer on the phone. Kevin's call hadn't done anything to sour his mood.

Sam was the kind of person who would not even blink an eye when the sky fell. Kevin couldn't be more different. Everyone had to show deference to him. He lived to tell people what to do. And if they didn't do what he wanted, he made sure they would.

He was used to being a strong man, so he didn't allow others to disobey him.

He usually held his emotions in check. But when it came to confrontation, he'd never back down. He would unleash his full fury on anyone foolish enough to oppose him.

Hearing the explosive shouts from Sam's phone, Anne lost what little appetite she had. She put down the spoon and looked out the window. There was a touch of sadness in her eyes.

Emily didn't say anything this time, not knowing what to say to make anything better. She took the takeout box from Anne's hand and sat silently with her.

Sam said nothing as he continued driving the car. Anne didn't really want him to say anything anyway.

When the car arrived at the community, Sam sent Anne inside and talked to Emily. "I'm going out for a while," he said in a grave tone. "Take good care of her. I have porridge and boiled eggs in the kitchen."

"Okay, I will." Emily nodded earnestly.

After Sam left, Anne didn't eat much. She ate some vegetables and a fruit salad made by Emily, plus a small bowl of porridge.

Emily's cooking skills were beyond reproach. She was almost as good as Sam, who cooked like a five-star chef.

After Sam left, Anne felt a little uneasy. She walked from the room to the balcony, and then back to the living room, frowning the whole time.

"I have to go." She turned and walked towards the door.

Emily immediately came over to block her way and said seriously, "Sam said not to let you out."
