Attracted By My Ex-wife

The night was beautiful, a special night on the sea. The sky kissed the water and there was nothing in between them. However, the stars seemed to be so far away and it was perhaps because of desolation.

As Anne walked into the garden, she heard some voices cutting through the calmness of the night. She wasn't interested in their business but the ringing voices were hard to ignore.

"Mom, go home. Don't look for him anymore. If you want to gamble outside, I will give you money but don't look for that man. I won't let you see him." Kim's voice was firm and there was no room for negotiation. He looked at her with a stern expression on his face.

The woman's voice became exceptionally sharp. "Shut up! You are just a bastard that I never wished for. How can you say that to me? He is your father, the person I love the most." She pointed at him with her hand trembling in anger. "You! You are the reason why he won't come back!"

As Anne heard those words, it suddenly occurred to her what Kim had said. This was probably the time his mother was sober.

However, Anne felt that Kim's mother was indeed a fool. 'Her husband's infidelity was a fault of his own. How could she blame it on the child?' she thought.

"Wake up from your delusions. Can't you see it? He has never loved you and he never will," Kim said stubbornly. It was apparent in his voice that he already lost his hope on his so-called father.

A swift slapping sound was heard. The silence of the night made the sound particularly harsh.

"If you hadn't been involved in the underworld, your father wouldn't have feared you and would've never left. It's all your fault. I hope you were never born!" The middle-aged woman spat her words to her son like poison. At least to Anne's eyes, those words inflicted great pain to her child. The fact that those words came from the mother who gave birth to him must've been heartbreaking.

"Don't you get it? If I weren't strong, we would have died a long time ago. Besides, you are the only one who dares to hit me in this world," Kim reckoned, his voice low and emotionless.

"I think you are wrong. Don't blame your child for your troubles. If you don't want him, you should've thought about it first before you brought him to this world. The child is a life, not a toy that you can do anything you want to," Anne asserted in a cold voice, trying to educate Kim's mother.

Suddenly, the middle-aged woman shifted her gaze to Anne. Straightaway, Anne noticed the woman's face. From her features, she could tell that she was beautiful.

Stubbornness flared in her teary eyes. Despite how cold she was to her child, Anne believed that she really loved Kim's father.

"Who are you? Who do you think you are?" Kim's mother looked at Anne sharply from head to toes. "You are soon to be a mother. Let me break this to you. That baby will ruin your life. You should get rid of that," she snapped as she pointed her finger to Anne's baby bump. "Get an abortion. Giving birth to a baby is a scourge." Kim's mother's voice was aggressive and her words were brutal. Anne didn't expect her to be so irrational.

Anne felt the anger from the woman's eyes. She felt as though she angered a lion that would pounce on her at any moment. Anne took a step back, feeling a little scared. However, suddenly Kim's mother burst into tears.

"Kim, I'm sorry. It's my fault. I've hurt you." She sobbed as she covered her eyes with her hands, trying to hide her face. She realized what great shame she had just mouthed off. "I'm not a good mother, but I can't help it. I just love your father too much. Why did he do this to me? He told me before that he wanted you to come more than anyone else. Why did he lock me up and took away my freedom, while he is out there fooling around? Why?"

In an instant, the fierce lion turned into a fragile child. She was just standing there, crying her eyes out. Seeing all of this, Anne understood that the woman in front of her had been through emotional abuse. That woman broke down and couldn't think twice about her actions.
