Attracted By My Ex-wife

Anne's morning sickness was only getting worse. Her face was utterly pale and she could barely eat anything throughout the day.

Kevin spent most of his day in the study. Whenever he would hear Anne vomiting, he would feel mildly annoyed.

She was already so thin. How could her body stand all that throwing up?

Suddenly, the door flew open as Cherry strode in. She had a huge smile on her face, holding what seemed to be a container in her hands.

"Kevin, what's on your mind? Something seems to be bothering you," Cherry asked in concern as she placed the soup in front of him. She then fondly held his arm as a way to comfort him.

"Nothing. Just work. What are you doing here?" Kevin really wasn't in the mood to hash it out with Cherry.

She didn't find this suspicious as this was pretty normal behavior for him. He was a workaholic whose life revolved around his career.

"You've been working so hard. You must be exhausted. I made you some soup to help you with the stress."

Cherry pushed the soup towards Kevin, looking worried.

He looked at her affectionately, flashing her a smile as he took the soup.

Just as he was about to drink the soup, he stopped. Frowning slightly, he seemed to have realized something.

"What's wrong, Kevin? Don't you want the soup?"

Cherry frowned, looking nervous.

"Anne's morning sickness is getting worse. She hasn't eaten anything the whole day. Why don't you just give the soup to her?" Kevin said lightly as he put the soup back on the tray.

The smile on Cherry's face froze as she looked at Kevin, visibly taken aback.

"Oh, that's right. How could I forget about Anne? I was so focused on you."

After a momentary silence, she forced a smile. As she spoke, her tone was gentle but the envy in her eyes was undeniable.

Kevin turned and returned her gaze. In a soft tone, he said,

"I'm doing this for the baby's sake. I need to make sure the baby is healthy. Do you understand?"

He decided to explain himself as he was worried that Cherry would feel uncomfortable.

Cherry smiled back, feigning concern.

"Kevin, you don't have to explain anything to me. Anne is pregnant and she's my cousin. I should take care of her. I'm sorry I wasn't more sensitive. I'll bring her the soup right now."

She acted as if she was considerate and truly cared about Anne. In reality, she abhorred Anne.
