Attracted By My Ex-wife

"Are you alright, Anne?" Ian was in a meeting that time but when he had learned that Anne already went to see Ryan, on top of being familiar with Ryan's recent actions, he immediately dismissed the meeting to look for Anne.

However, he didn't expect that the moment he saw Anne, his heart suddenly felt heavy and everything outside couldn't arouse her interest.

"You can go out first. I just want to be alone right now," Anne replied in a heavy voice.

"Ryan is a scheming man." Ian frowned as he had remembered the things that Ryan had done.

"I'm really fine. It's just not a big deal for me," Anne said calmly.

"Anne. Please. Let's get married," Ian suddenly said with seriousness in his tone.

For the first time, Anne didn't know how to respond to him. She looked at his face, trying to read it if he was just joking or he was genuine with his proposal.

"Let's get married. I know now's not the right time for stuff like that but I don't know if I'll ever get the opportunity to ask you that. When I came back, you're already married to someone else. But if that man can't make you happy, I hope to be the one who can."

His expression never changed the entire time he spoke because he knew that even if he was wrong, he was still willing to stick to his own ideas and keep Anne happy.

He loved her so much. When he heard she was in trouble back home, he came back immediately without even thinking.

He never even planned this. He proposed to her on the spur of the moment.

"What are you talking about?" Anne looked at him puzzled.

"I said I love you so much, even from the first time I met you. I want to be with you, not because I want to use you to oppose Kevin, but because I know that you're the only one that I want to be with." He finally spoke what he truly felt to her. It was also a way to help her solve her problems.

"Ian… I-I'm sorry. You're a good man and you shouldn't give up your own life just for me. You deserve to be with someone better," Anne replied. Her tone felt unnatural.

"Sure, you may think that way but I know deep down that you're already the best, Anne. I want you to be happy. I hope that I could protect you for the rest of my life. You don't have to rush this and refuse me in a hurry. If you ever felt this is troublesome, you don't have to hesitate. Letting you be happy is already my greatest wish."

With nothing else to say, Ian stood up and finally left the hotel. She sighed and looked at his lonely receding figure as he walked away.

Meanwhile, in the Fu Family's house.

The entire estate was ghost-quiet.

Rose sat on the rattan swing as she stared outside with melancholy.

"Mrs. Rose, it's time for dinner. Shall we go back to the living room?" the servant said to her respectfully.

Rose looked at the servant with forlorn eyes. "I don't want to eat. Please leave me for now."
