Attracted By My Ex-wife

As Emily entered the room full-handed, her eyebrows furrowed in confusion and asked, "Yes, I have a phone with me. What do you want to do?"

"Give me your phone." Anne closed the door and reached out to Emily. "I want to call Ryan," she said in a serious tone.

"No," Emily refused decisively, "The last time that you went to see him, Mr. Kevin got very angry. You can't call him now."

Emily had no idea what Anne was thinking. She frowned and continued, "Besides, he just set you free. You really can't call him this time."

Anne puckered her eyebrows and looked at Emily. "Emily, I really have something urgent to deal with. Don't worry, I won't see him this time, okay?" she insisted.

Emily bit her lip. She didn't know whether she should allow Anne to have the phone or not.

She had heard from Kevin that Anne was already free and she was happy for her boss. However, she didn't expect that Anne would contact Ryan again. If Kevin knew that they were in touch, Anne would surely be in trouble again.

No, no! She shook her head and replied firmly, "No, I can't give you my phone." Emily stopped for a second and sighed. "I brought breakfast for you, have some," she said, trying to avert the argument. Anne shook her head. How could she even have the mood to eat now?

"I'll just go shopping with you. What do you think?" Emily said trying to enliven Anne. She raised her head to Emily and said,

"Emily, don't you even want to help me? Even for such a small favor?"

Anne's look was very irresistible. Emily was left with no choice but to give Anne what she wanted. She sighed and handed her phone to Anne.

"Here you go, but you can only call him for a minute. You can't talk for too long or even meet him."

"Don't worry," Anne said and grasped the phone. She immediately dialed the number she remembered.

It was a vivid day for Ryan. He was having coffee in the courtyard, bathed in the sunlight. Everything around was tranquil.

The mellow taste of the coffee lingered between his lips. He took a sip of coffee calmly.

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, the phone in his pocket rang. He put down the coffee and checked his phone.

It was an unknown number. Ryan leaned over and finally answered it.

"Hello?"

"It's me. Where are you now?"

It was Anne's voice. Ryan stood up quickly and said avidly, "Anne, where are you now? How have you been? I heard that you were locked up by Kevin, is that true?"

"Yes, but I'm fine now. I'm calling to tell you that you have to wait for me for a while. I'm afraid I can't contact you for some time,"

Anne said as she held the phone tightly.
