Attracted By My Ex-wife

Much to Kevin's disappointment, no one was there when he went down to the dining room.

"Your meal is ready, Mr. Kevin. Is there anything else I can get you?"

"Where is Anne?"

Displeased, he threw his chopsticks on the table. The servant trembled in fear.

"Miss. Anne said that she would have food in her bedroom, so..."

"Send my food to her bedroom too." With a grunt, Kevin went upstairs and walked into Anne's bedroom without even knocking on the door.

As the door swung open, Anne was just about to swallow a spoonful of porridge. When she saw Kevin's angry face, she coughed and nearly choked on her food.

"What are you doing here in my room?" she asked as she patted her mouth with a napkin.

"Why? Am I not allowed here?" The servant entered and placed his food on the table where Anne was, and then quickly left with her head down. It puzzled and angered him that her first reaction towards him was always hostile and unwelcoming.

He had already sent Cherry away. What else did this woman want?

Sometimes, his fury was so intense that he wanted to go and hit her, just to see if she was capable of having any other reaction towards him. It was hard for him not to think that this woman's heart was made out of stone.

"I told you already that I agreed to live here just so that I can be with the baby. You know how difficult it is for me to be under the same roof as you are. Please don't just barge into my room like that." Slowly and carefully, Anne tried to explain herself once again.

Hearing such ruthless words made Kevin even more infuriated. His hands balled into fists at his sides. 'Ungrateful woman!' he thought. Although he wanted to shout these words at her, he bit his tongue. He knew that the harder he was on her, the more she resisted him.

"Don't think that I'm doing this for you," he replied. "I'm just doing this for the baby. Don't you think it's nice that he has a complete family? Actually, I was hoping you'd let me see him. The baby is not yours alone, after all." Putting his hand in his pockets, he shrugged indifferently and looked carefully at Anne's reaction.

Much to his dismay, she rolled her eyes at him.

"Ha-ha. So now you're suddenly the child's father? Tell me, how was the baby doing before I came here? Cherry mistreated him horribly without you even knowing about it! On top of that, the baby was very underweight!"

Even though the worst part was over since Cherry had been kicked out of the house, so many bad things had happened to the child. These things might have been avoided if only Kevin had paid more attention. Because of this, Anne couldn't help but hate him even more.

"I..." Lowering his head, Kevin was left speechless.

In truth, he actually really loved the baby. When he found out that Anne had gone abroad, he had an overwhelming sense of loss. He was so sad that he was not able to take care of himself nor the baby. During those times, he really thought that Cherry would take good care of the child.

If he told her that he was too sad to take care of the baby, Anne would be sure that he had gone out of his mind. And if he told her that he had expected Cherry to be nice to his baby, he was not sure if he would be driven out by Anne.

"What? Don't have anything to say? Then please go out."
