Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 204 Compromise

When they arrived home, it was already midnight. The air was thick with fog making the villa faintly visible from a distance.

Kevin parked his car in the garage. Just as he was about to grab Anne's hand, he found that she was no longer there.

Disappointed, he knew that it was inevitable for Anne to be indifferent towards him.

As soon as he entered the living room, he spotted Anne who got up at the sight of him. She closed the door behind him in a seemingly deliberate manner.

It didn't take a genius to notice that she was purposely avoiding him.

Still, he knew this was what he had to do if he wanted to see Anne.

The lights in Anne's room had turned off. The curtains were drawn as darkness enveloped the room.

She tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. She felt disgusted at the idea of being in the same house as Kevin. She didn't know how long she would be able to stand this.

Sighing, she tried her best to fall asleep.

When she woke up, she was glad to find that Kevin had already left.

This time, Selma came early. When she did, Anne was having porridge in the dining room.

The bright sun seemed to dim in Selma's presence.

"Anne. I apologize for what happened last time," Selma said in a small voice.

Anne merely ignored her as she continued to eat her porridge.

"Don't worry, Anne. The baby is with me and your grandfather is taking care of him." The fake smile plastered on Selma's face made Anne sick to the stomach.

However, the mention of Eddy caught Anne's attention.

"Now I've got your attention." Selma flashed her a light smile.

"Stop acting like that. I'm afraid it might kill me. You don't need to pretend," Anne said coldly.

"You..." The pleasant look on Selma's face almost morphed into her usual cruel self but when she recalled what Carl had said, she reverted back to the charming facade.

"Just say what you want to say. We both know what kind of people we are. We hate each other. Why do you have to act like that? It's sickening." Anne's bleakness made Selma furious.

Anne had always been ungrateful. Selma was trying her best to be nice to her yet she was still mocked.

"Eddy's condition has only been getting worse. Sam flew abroad for work but the doctors in the hospital are very credible. They said that Eddy's health is failing. If he can be treated early enough, he can get better. We should work hard. We can't wait until he's four or five years old." As soon as Selma finished speaking, she noticed the grave expression that clouded Anne's face.
