Attracted By My Ex-wife

It was already dusk when Rose returned. The rays of sunlight that were dispersed by streams of clouds slowly disappeared as time ticked by.

She emerged out of her car and took tiny steps towards the house. It exhausted her being just by the thought that she had to deal with a lot of jewelry and paraphernalia for the wedding ceremony.

Not long after, Kevin's car's engine resonated within the vicinity and halted by her side.

"Why are you walking slowly like that? You look unwell. Are you tired? Hurry up and come in," he said as he rolled down his window.

"No, let's not go inside yet!" she protested.

Kevin kept his hand on the steering wheel as his handsome face turned to her.

"What's wrong?" he asked gently. Even though he acted kind towards her, there was something in him that made her worried.

"I want you to assure me that you no longer love Anne." Rose had always wished for this thing. However, that was before her life made an unexpected turn.

"Why are you saying such things out of nowhere?" For a moment, coldness flashed in his eyes, but he was fast to conceal it.

"Please, don't do this anymore. If you marry me, Anne and Eddy will suffer. Nothing good will come out of this," she said. The only thing that she wished right now was for him to love his former lover once again.

"You don't have to worry about that. Even though Anne is Eddy’s mother, you’d still treat him good, right?" Kevin asked.

"Of course! Eddy is just a kid and he's innocent. He's fun to be around with." As the image of the child appeared in her mind, she couldn't help but grin.

Kevin returned her smile gently. "Then what are you so worried about? Go back inside and don't make mom wait for too long."

Left with no choice, Rose entered the house with him. All the while, her mind was filled with Mark's reaction and Kevin's change of behavior.

Guilt gnawed her heart. She had planned to let Anne and Kevin be together. Now that this thing happened, she could only imagine the disappointment on her face once she told her everything.

At the thought, she decided to at least give her a heads-up so that she wouldn't be that surprised anymore.

Without further ado, she dialed her number. She decided to explain everything to her tomorrow when Kevin accompanied her to the bridal shop. Instead of lying, she would rather tell her the truth.

They went to a luxurious store named KY.

It was one of the top stores in the country that specialized in customized wedding dresses.

With just a glance, one would know that their products were made by highly recognized designers. Everything looked exquisite and elegant.

Kevin led Rose inside as the manager greeted them warmly.

"Good day, Mr. Kevin. We already prepared everything you asked for. Please take a look."

When the attendant stared at the woman beside him, she couldn't help but crease her forehead. "I don't think we got the right size for the dress, Mr. Kevin. The dress should be a bit thinner."
