Attracted By My Ex-wife

The coffee shop was shrouded by the starless night sky. The lights glowed an aura of brilliance around the cafe, and the lively plants waved with their dusky emerald green leaves.

"Are you saying that I should agree with Selma's proposal?" Rose’s expression was seemingly off as if her parents said something horrible. Instead of being the obedient girl that she was, her face was steaming like a hot potato.

Looking at his daughter, Liam heaved a sigh. In everyone's eyes, Rose was a compliant girl, but they had no idea that under her tender personality, a firestorm of fierceness prowled. Rose worshipped true love like a miracle, but pure hate made her abandon all the goodness in her.

"Dad, how can you allow this?" Seeing that neither of her parents intended to speak a word, she pushed her chair backward, stood up, and growled at them.

"Rose, calm down. Don't get too pumped up. That’s not what we mean. We can't sell our daughter, how could we? We just think that Kevin owes you his life, and this could be the easiest way for us to get his signature on the contract," said Liam.

"The contract will be signed in due time. Dad, don't you believe in my ability?" Rose raised the question of her doubts angrily.

"That's not my point. Of course, I believe in you, but some things are destined to happen. Kevin rejected our project because a similar beauty and physical therapy proposal was already submitted by the Feng Group. They have close relationship with Kevin, and we know we have little chance, but we still handed in our proposal just to try our luck," said Liam as his face darkened.

"I see…" The disappointment was painted all over Rose's face. She composed herself as she sat on her chair with a terrible look on her face.

"So, it's not because I can't do it. It's just that the case itself is trashed already. Dad, what should we do? There has to be another way," asked Rose as she raised her voice with conviction.

Looking at the disenchanted look in his daughter's eyes, Liam suspired, but before he could say anything, Valentina, who had been sitting quietly next to him, interrupted. She said, "Rose, it's trivial. There are thousands of money-spinning partnerships in the business circle, but we managed to win the most profitable one the moment you donated blood to Kevin. You should try your best to stay on the good side of Selma. If that happens, even if Kevin doesn't agree to the marriage, we will still get to be their associates, and ensure that we do our best to cooperate with a compromise."

Valentina was good at business. It was her trademark. She enunciated the high stakes of having a bridging friendship with Kevin and why they needed it as soon as possible. In this way, Rose, who had always been against the idea of having an intimate relationship with Kevin, would rethink her verdicts from top to bottom.

Rose was thinking of how to make friends with Kevin, but rather the puzzling facade of his melancholic expression on that day.

"Rose, are you angry with us?" Valentina asked cautiously.

"No, mother, I will listen to you and Dad. Even if I can't promise Selma, I will give my best shot to get along with Kevin. It will cost me some energy, but in the end, there’s nothing to lose in trying." After saying that, she flashed a reassuring smile that relieved the tension in the air.

Seeing that Rose was so considerate, Liam felt gratified and somewhat guilty.

"Thank you, my daughter." He patted Rose's shoulder, and the three of them left the place together.

It was about six o'clock in the evening,

and the East Mountain Villa was extraordinarily quiet. Faints of twinkling starlight crowded the heavens as the moonlight leisurely rose against the sinking sunset.

The wind blew a nibble colder which made Kevin frown.
