Attracted By My Ex-wife

Two years was more than enough time for Anne to realize that she was no match for Kim. She had exhausted all means possible to get away, but she couldn't find even the slightest chance of doing so.

Her guards and babysitters would be replaced at regular intervals—that was how cautious Kim was. But then again, thinking back to those times, she couldn't really say that she wasn't treated well.

Though Anne couldn't figure out what was going on in Kim's mind most of the time, she understood that he was a dangerous man. Because of that, she had no choice but to act meek and obedient, or else she would never have the chance to free herself from his grip.

"Mom, I want to go out and play." A little delicate boy staggered towards Anne. He looked longingly at her with his big watery eyes. Anne was sure that no one in this world would be able to resist him.

"Where do you want to go, Simon?" she asked him as she held him in her arms.

The little boy perked up and smiled widely. The twinkle in his bright eyes made Anne happy, but also extremely guilty. If it weren't for her, such a sweet child wouldn't be confined in such a space.

"Uncle Nicholas! Come pick me up!" Behind little Simon was a little girl. She looked like Kevin so Kim wasn't fond of her, but the kid, on the other hand, adored him and always wanted to be with him.

'Maybe it was because Kim was the first person she saw when she was born,' Anne thought.

Kim complied with Sally's request immediately. Though his face was devoid of emotions, his eyes showed some tenderness towards the child. His skillfulness in lifting up the child proved that he did this often.

Anne sighed inwardly. Though she knew that Kim wouldn't hurt her children, she still didn't want them to have too much contact with him. It was mainly because of his temper. She knew him, and she was sure that it would be a disaster if he just got angry at them one day.

"There will be a banquet in two days. You have go with me." Kim was obviously not trying to asking Anne out nor was he consulting her about the event—he was giving her a command.

Anne raised her eyebrows and looked at Kim in confusion. There must be a reason for him to make such a decision.

He hadn't let her see anyone else for two years. Why would he suddenly decide to not only let her out, but also to meet people? Deep inside, she felt that something was going to happen.

"Why?" After hesitating for a while, Anne decided to ask. She knew that he was unlikely to answer, but she just couldn't let it go.

"Don't you want to go out?" Kim shot her the question instead of answering.

Of course Anne wanted to go out, but she wanted it to be permanent. She wanted to be free!

"Of course I want to. But since you have no intentions of letting me go, you must let me know what your purpose is. I think I deserve that from you." Anne tried to bargain with Kim. Never had she done this, and so her heart was already beating fast.

Kim, however, just gave her a meaningful look before going out and basking under the sun with Sally happy in his arms.
