Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 273 Revisit The Old Place

Liam noticed Anne didn't seem happy. He realized perhaps he had said something wrong. He couldn't bear the thought of hurting her. He already owed a lot to Anne and her mother.

Liam looked guilty. Clearing his throat, he said, "Your mother worked hard to take care of you, didn't she?"

Listening to his words, Anne raised her head. She didn't expect Liam would ask about her mother. After thinking for a while, she said, "I always told her she seemed very tired, but she always dismissed me saying she wasn't."

Her words intensified the guilt that Liam was feeling. There was once again a short pause. And then, Liam gazed at her with his sad eyes and said, "It was all my fault. I neglected my responsibility as a father and made you both fend for yourself."

Anne understood this man was indeed guilty. The truth was, Anne didn't care about the past anymore.

"Everyone had their own life to take care of. It was a long time ago. Perhaps, back then you didn't have the ability to go against your family."

Anne's words brought him some comfort. A smile appeared on his face and Liam was relieved.

"You and your mother came back to the Ye Clan later, didn't you?" Liam queried.

"Well, the Ye Clan felt that what my mother did shouldn't be known by everyone. They wanted it to remain a secret. They didn't want us there. However, my uncle contacted us after my grandparents' demise. He took pity on my mother and wished to help us so we went back."

As she spoke, she tried to smile. But the truth was, she hadn't liked going back to the Ye Clan.

Even though she led a very difficult life before moving in to the Ye Clan, she preferred it. At the Ye Clan, she was incessantly framed and bullied by others.

She told herself it was all in the past and forced herself to get rid of those terrible memories.

"Okay." Liam didn't dare to look at Anne.

The atmosphere in the living room became tense. The only voice that came was from Eddy.

"Dad!" he exclaimed. Kevin had appeared out of nowhere.

Both Anne and Liam looked at his direction. Kevin was standing near the door. It seemed like he had been here for a while now.

Anne looked at him and said unhappily, "You didn't tell me you would be back so soon. Why are you standing out there?"

Kevin flashed her a smile. The evening light shone through the French window, making his smile a little distant but gentle.

"Seeing that you two are having a good chat, I didn't want to disturb you both." The smile on Kevin's face widened. He was patient with Anne.

Watching their exchange, Liam nodded slightly. This time, he had witnessed a different side of Kevin. When he saw Kevin with Rose before, he only saw his gentlemanly side. He didn't seem to genuinely care about Rose.

"Dad," Kevin said, turning his attention to Liam. Now that the tension between Anne and Liam eased, Kevin's attitude towards the latter changed.
