Attracted By My Ex-wife

"What happened, Sam? I thought you were a great doctor. How come you didn't figure out that she wasn't pregnant at all?" Kevin questioned.

Following Kevin's moment of distrust, Sam then stood up, stared pensively at him, and sighed. "Listen, Kevin. I know just as much as you do. You know it's useless for me to try and find out the truth since your mother always thinks I'm secretly working with you. Now, if I were to reveal the truth, I'm sure you know very well what would happen next."

Kevin took a deep breath and lowered his eyes as he acquiesced in the reality of the statements he just heard. Sam was right—even if he actually came clean before Selma, there was no way she would believe any of it.

"I know. Anyway, I should go."

Just when Kevin was about to walk out, Sam called for him. "Wait a minute."

There was an evident change in his voice as his attitude softened a little. A little agog to hear what Sam still had to say, Kevin stopped while his brows slightly furrowed. "What is it?"

"How's Anne? Is she doing well?" Sam asked quite hesitantly.

"You don't have to worry about her," Kevin answered in a dismissive tone. After all, he did mind what had happened before.

"Of course. I just want to make sure she's okay. I'm just concerned as a friend. But if you don't want to talk about her, I'll ask something else then. How's Eddy doing? It's been a while since he came in for his check-up," Sam asked worriedly.

As Kevin stood by the door, he remembered little Eddy's adorable face and couldn't help but let out a faint smile.

"He's doing fine. He'll be okay. We're taking good care of him," Kevin said with uncertainty.

However, as he realized what he just said, the smile on his face was instantly replaced by a gloomy expression. Although he could rejoice in the fact that Rose was not pregnant and that he could simply explain everything to Anne, his main concern at the moment was Eddy's health.

Since the only ones he cared about were Anne and Eddy, he wanted to make sure that things wouldn't get even messier than they already were. For a moment, he was at a loss.

"All right. I'll just go and check on Eddy when I've got the time. By the way, what are you going to do with Rose?" Sam asked without beating around the bush.

Kevin looked at the ceiling, took a deep breath, and shifted his gaze to Sam. "I will do what needs to be done. Maybe in a few days, I'll make her leave."

"I see. I guess it's better to deal with it as soon as possible."

"I know."

The second they finished their conversation, Kevin went ahead and left the office.

Meanwhile, in the East Mountain Villa, the huge living room felt so empty and lugubrious. While Anne sat on the sofa, she just blankly stared at the lemon tree through the window.

Although the cold season hadn't arrived yet, it was still a little chilly in the morning. Since Anne was wearing thin clothes, she couldn't help but rub her delicate hands together for some warmth.

She tried to look as composed as possible, but she had never been that good at hiding her true emotions. Now that she found out about Rose's miscarriage, she couldn't control her overthinking.

"Miss Anne, you seem to be feeling uncomfortable. Would you like me to call Mr. Kevin so he could take you to the hospital?" the servant amicably asked as she noticed Anne's restless expression.

"No. No need for that. I'll be fine. I just need to rest for a while. You may carry on with your other duties," Anne replied stubbornly, looking very tired.

Knowing that Anne wouldn't listen to her no matter how hard she insisted, the servant didn't utter another word and decided to leave her be for now.
