Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 8 Pregnant

Anne was not a pushover. She was about to respond when a figure rushed to Cherry's side in a flurry, ready to protect her tooth and nail.

"Anne, what are you doing?" He stared at her with a furious glare in his eyes. "Apologize!"

His words came out as an indiscriminate conviction. Apparently, he didn't even remember they were a couple.

"Kevin, I don't know what I've done wrong." With a petrified gaze, Anne turned to him, profoundly hurt by his assumption. "Why should I apologize?"

Rage boiling up inside him, Kevin kept his eyes fixed on the woman in front of him. "You don't know what you've done wrong?" He pointed at the cup in Anne's hand and roared, "Then what is this?"

Attracted by the commotion, people started to gather around them wondering what was happening.

The scene spoke clearly though: Cherry's clothes were wet and Anne was holding an empty cup. It took them one second to assume that Anne had tried to take revenge on Cherry by pouring water on her while no one was watching.

The disdain in their eyes grew intenser, sending a clear message of condemnation.

Even though everybody was already pointing finger at her, Anne was determined to set things straight.

"Anyone can lie, not to mention a cup that can't even speak. Cherry's clothes..."

"Apologize now!" Furious beyond words, Kevin didn't want to hear Anne's excuses.

With judging eyes, everyone was staring at her quietly, making the tension so thick that it could be cut with a knife.

Kevin was enraged, and so was Anne, but she didn't want to put up a fight. Throwing one last look in his direction, she turned on her heels, ready to leave.

All of a sudden, Kevin grabbed her wrist and forced her to face his livid glare. He said through his gritted teeth, "Already leaving? If you don't apologize to Cherry today, I won't let you put feet out of the house!"

"I'm not leaving." Dumbstruck, Anne frowned as Kevin pinched her wrist so hard it almost made her eyes tear. "Let go of me!"

She was distracted when the water somehow found its way out of the cup and on Cherry's clothes.

But now she was determined to find the culprit. With her senses more acute than ever, she perceived a delicate fragrance on her body. It was definitely not hers.

Like the scent of a flower shaken by a gust of wind, it had traveled through the air to land gracefully on her.

Everyone here smelled differently.

Lost in thought, she could swear that someone had just touched her, even though she didn't see it happen.

"Kevin, forget it." As she noticed that everybody was there witnessing the scene, Cherry decided to plead with Kevin. Showing compassion for Anne while still being the victim of her misdeed was a successful strategy for winning the favor of the people around her.

"It's just a little water. I'll change my clothes," Cherry added in a considerate tone. "She didn't do it on purpose."
