Attracted By My Ex-wife

She watched the two indifferently. They came back to the sofa after eating. She quietly walked to the courtyard and sat at the stone table nearby.

She didn't know when it got dark, but it did, and everything around her was indistinct. The lights in the courtyard came on, one after another.

Anne started feeling chilly. She hadn't noticed it before. Maybe the lights had startled her out of her reverie.

She sat there quietly, staring at the pool, lost in thought.

Bursts of laughter came from the room, but it seemed that Anne didn't hear them at all and didn't respond either.

Emily had stayed outside with Anne, and felt uncomfortable. She turned her head to look at the hall, and complained to Anne in whispers.

"Anne, it isn't worth it."

Her words threw Anne back to reality. Anne raised her head slightly and gave her a gentle look. "What do you mean?"

"I meant exactly what I said. Sometimes, I really don't know what's best for you." Emily frowned and continued, "Maybe you won't be so hurt if you just leave, but I know that's not what you want most."

Anne shook her head, her black eyes moist from tears.

She touched her baby and all the depression in her heart faded away.

It didn't matter. She still had the baby with her.

"There's no running away from this one. I don't care how Kevin treats me. As long as I get what I deserve, it's worth it."

She didn't even want to believe it herself, but in the end, she convinced Emily, who was innocent as she was. She nodded with a happy look.

"Well, I think you can have a happy life. I don't think Cherry will, however!"

What Emily said made Anne smile. She'd rather see Cherry get what she deserved.

Cherry knew she couldn't put it off any longer. She reluctantly left the East Mountain Villa. When she left, she heard Kevin say that he was going to spend the night there, so she lost her temper again.

But how could Cherry disobey Kevin? As far as Kevin was concerned, Cherry had always been considerate and kind-hearted. He thought Cherry wouldn't mind if he just stayed for the night.

Cherry was no fool. She wouldn't ruin her image in Kevin's heart by throwing a fit.

"Oh my God! Cherry left here alone?" Emily whispered, "Anne—"

"I know," Anne said with a cryptic smile, "Hey, it's late. You don't have to take care of me. Get some sleep."

When she heard the footsteps behind her, she knew that Kevin still had something to say to her. In other words, he wanted to continue hurting her.

Emily frowned and saw Kevin walking over. She felt worried.
