Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 29 Heartbroken

Kevin's footsteps were quickly fading away. Anne listened carefully. Her body stiffened when she heard him stop abruptly.

After a while, the sound of the door slamming shut resounded in the room.

Breathing a sigh of relief, she turned to look at the door. He left. He really left.

With her strength drained from her body, she finally let a few hot tears slip along the corners of her eyes and down on the pillow. As they fell with urgency, they kept reminding her that she was just a tool for surrogacy.

After getting what she deserved, she would leave immediately.

Cherry seemed to be in a good mood thanks to the phone call.

Obviously, Selma was very satisfied with her. On the contrary, she found Kevin's recent performance quite disappointing. Even though Anne was pregnant, it was inappropriate for him not to come back for days.

Fortunately, Cherry was sensible enough not to complain about it. Otherwise, she would really be pissed off by Kevin.

"Kevin is such a willful boy. It's one thing to stop dealing with the company's affairs, but quite another not to find the time to be with you." Selma picked up the cup of coffee from the table and took a cautious sip. "Luckily, Cherry, you're such a fair lady and don't bother at all."

Cherry sat graciously on the sofa. She always took care to show the best version of herself around Selma.

Raising her head delicately, she flaunted a gentle smile.

"Auntie, it doesn't matter. I understand Kevin. After all, this is his first child. It's natural for him to be thoughtful."

"You are so considerate." With a satisfied nod, Selma smiled back at her.

In spite of her praise, Cherry still felt bad. Her smile was graceful, but her gaze was full of disappointment.

How could Selma not understand what she was thinking? Noticing her unhappy look, Selma asked, "Cherry, are you worried about Kevin?"

"What?" Astonished by that unexpected question, Cherry quickly turned around with her expression full of denial. "No, no. I believe in him. But Anne is a good girl. I'm afraid--"

"You don't have to worry about that. Kevin is a man who treasures the present. He knows the difference between love and hate very clearly. He hates Anne so much. How could he fall in love with her?" Smiling, Selma added, "What's more, Anne has fallen far behind you. Kevin has good taste. We should trust in him."

Since it was Selma to say those words, Cherry couldn't bring herself to disagree. At least, she knew she succeeded because Selma liked her, and so did the rest in the whole Fu Family.

Therefore, as soon as the baby was born, she would formally marry Kevin and become the young hostess of the Fu Family.

At the thought, she couldn't help but smile triumphantly.
