Attracted By My Ex-wife

"Kevin, thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know what to do." This time, Cherry was actually being sincere.

She often acted weak and frail to win over Kevin's attention especially when Anne was around. However, this time around, she genuinely appreciated Kevin. Without him, she wouldn't know what would happen to her.

"Now you can go back by yourself," Kevin said plainly.

In response, Cherry shook her head and refused, "No, I don't want to. Kevin, he already knows where I live. Considering what I said to him today, he definitely won't let me go!"

She shivered in fear at the mere thought of Devin.

It was true that she hated her mother with a burning passion. That was also what drove her to push her mother which caused her death.

It was her mother who had been unfaithful to her father. When she gave birth to Cherry, she did it in secret. She should have been the daughter of the Ye Clan. Why did her mother have to tell her the truth and let her live in the shame of being constantly threatened by Devin?

"That's none of my business." Kevin didn't even attempt to hide his disappointment at Cherry.

In particular, he hated Cherry for setting him and Anne up that led to a misunderstanding between the two of them. It was ironic that the one whom he hated the most turned out to be the most innocent.

"Kevin, what if something happens to me? Are you just going to stand back and watch?" Cherry said softly, sobbing.

Resigned, Kevin took Cherry home.

All the lights in the entire Fu Family's Villa were turned on. The lamps stretched all the way to hundreds of meters outside the gate as if they intended to greet the people who were coming home late.

Upon Cherry and Kevin's arrival at the villa, the first person they saw was Anne sitting on the sofa. It seemed as if she was drawing something.

Anne looked up only to find Kevin with Cherry.

To make things worse, Cherry raised her eyebrows and smiled tauntingly at Anne.

Naturally, Anne was pissed off. She had told Kevin that he was free to go wherever he wanted with Cherry. However, he couldn't bring her home.

'Is he just so eager to see her? It just has been only a few days.'

Scowling, Anne packed up her things in an attempt to leave. Kevin grabbed her by the hand and quickly said, "Anne, please listen to me."

She had a sour look on her face. "What do you have to tell me? Like you said, this is your home. You can bring home whoever you want and make anyone leave. What is there to explain?"

"That's not it," Kevin said helplessly.

At that moment, Cherry chimed in, "Yes, Anne. My father wanted to hurt me today. Kevin was just nice enough to save me so he took me back."
