Attracted By My Ex-wife

Anne got out of bed at once, ignoring what Kevin had just said.

He could only watch as she pushed open the door and walked out. Realizing that she treated Eddy better than him made him feel upset.

"Young master just woke up and said he wanted to see his mother, so I brought him to you," the servant explained as she handed the child to Anne. But Kevin got to him first.

Anne frowned. But before she could say anything in protest, her ex-husband exclaimed, "You're pregnant so you can't carry him for now. Don't you know that?"

It suddenly occurred to her that she really shouldn't be holding a heavy child in her arms given her state. All her common sense flew right out of the window as soon as she saw Eddy. It was a good thing that Kevin was there to remind her.

"No, no! I want Mommy!" Eddy struggled in Kevin's arms.

"You have to be a good boy, Eddy. It will just be a matter of days. Mommy will be able to hold you then," Anne whispered as she pinched her child's pink little cheek.

"Daddy will carry you for now, baby. Why don't we go and visit the playroom together?" Kevin offered.

He had prepared a big playground for Eddy at home.

But the child merely shook his head and cried, "No, Daddy..."

This rendered Kevin speechless. Didn't Eddy like him before? Why was he being rejected just then?

Despite feeling helpless, he tried his best to remain calm and patient.

"Put Eddy on the sofa. I won't carry him. I'll just talk to him," Anne said.

Even without seeing her face, Kevin could tell by her sweet voice that Anne was smiling.

He looked at the little boy in his arms and did as he was told.

Anne sat down on the sofa and held Eddy's hand. The child looked up at his mother with a big smile on his face. A drop of saliva escaped from the corner of his mouth.

She leaned over and kissed him on the cheek. The tenderness of the moment almost made Kevin want to pull her into his arms and kiss her hard.

But all he could do was lift Eddy up and sit between them.

"You naughty little boy, stop asking for Mommy. She needs to have a good rest." Kevin spoke seriously.

But although he flashed a stern expression that often intimidated a lot of people, Eddy didn't seem to be afraid of his father.

He got up from the sofa, stepped over Kevin's feet, and crawled to Anne's side.
