Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 116 Fainted

Cherry bore her animosity-filled eyes at Kevin, hatred burning inside her as she balled her hands into fists.

"Mr. Kevin, do I need to bring an umbrella for Miss Anne?"

the butler asked hesitantly as he looked at Kevin.

Kevin turned his gaze towards the woman who was standing outside, still refusing to leave. He felt his chest tighten.

Why was this damn woman so persistent?

"No need," Cherry said snidely before Kevin could say anything.

"Kevin is trying to make her quit. If you give her an umbrella, it will only draw her back in."

Upon hearing the coldness in Cherry's tone, Kevin leered at her, visibly irked.

The Cherry he used to know would have kindly offered the umbrella to Anne. What had happened to her? It was like she was a completely different woman. Since when was she so ruthless?

As if she read his mind, she began to explain defensively,

"Kevin, I know it's too much but Anne won't leave until she completely gives up. Do you want her to wait by the door forever?"

She approached him and held his arm.

Even though he was annoyed by her, he knew she had a point. If he really wanted Anne to give up already, he couldn't spare her any hope.

"Then keep her waiting outside. If she gets tired, she'll leave on her own,"

he said coldly, abruptly drawing the curtains and effectively blocking their view of Anne outside.

Seeing this, Cherry smiled proudly. It seemed that Anne didn't weigh much in his heart after all.

They returned to the dining table. He had his meal with a blank look pasted on his face. Without even so much as a glance at Cherry, he went straight to his study on the second floor after he had finished eating.

The rain kept pouring, showing no signs of letting up. Along with this, Kevin's anxiety heightened. It was undoubtedly cold outside yet Anne was still standing under the pelting rain for so long.

"Butler, hand me the umbrella!"

In the end, his pity for Anne prevailed. He put on his coat and stormed out of the room.
