Attracted By My Ex-wife

If this were in the past, Kevin wouldn't even spare her a glance. He'd just let her fend for herself.

However, that day, not only did he stay with her but he also carried her on his back for the first time.

"What do you think? If you weren't pregnant with my child, do you think I'd even care about you?" Kevin said coolly.

As expected, this only made Anne feel worse.

Whenever Kevin showed her the slightest amount of kindness, she always let herself hope a little too much. She'd fool herself into thinking that Kevin didn't hate her that much. If she worked a little harder, maybe he'd change how he perceived her.

She had to learn the hard way that this was all just a pipe dream. No matter what happened, Kevin would always see her as a vicious woman who did not deserve to be forgiven.

The only reason why he put up with her was because she was carrying his baby.

Anne remained silent.

Kevin quipped, "Why aren't you saying anything?"

"I don't know what to say." Since they didn't have much in common, they always ended up fighting anytime they tried to make conversation. When were they ever nice to each other?

Kevin peered at the light ahead. "We should be there soon."

"Okay." Anne merely nodded. She seemed to have seen a long asphalt road ahead of them.

When his car finally came into view, he put Anne down and said, "Get down and get in the car."

The moment Anne got off his back, a void seemed to have filled her chest.

The warmth she felt instantly vanished, replaced with an undeniable coldness.

She glanced at Kevin's clammy face. She could tell he was worn out.

"Kevin, I really didn't push Ruth downstairs."

Kevin froze just as he was about to open the door. "Why are you bringing that up now?"

Anne shook her head, smiling.

"I don't know. I just hope you believe me," Anne said sincerely, her eyes glinting under the moonlight.

Kevin looked up. "What if I say I don't believe you?"

Anne lowered her head. "Forget it. I don't know why I said that. I know you'll always believe that I'm the one who pushed her downstairs. I know you don't believe me. It was just wishful thinking."

Then she opened the door and got in the car.

Kevin frowned when he saw Anne get inside. He then followed her inside.

He settled himself in the driver's seat as he started the engine only to find that something was wrong with the car.

"What's wrong?"

When the car merely sputtered, Kevin gnashed his teeth. Anne asked, "What's going on with the car?"
