Attracted By My Ex-wife

For a while, Selma kept quiet and just squinted her eyes. Finally, she said, "As long as the price is reasonable, there's nothing we can't buy. We just have to use the right approach to do it. Now, let's go back first. There's no need to hurry."

Eddy's health was very stable right now. There was no need to rush.

Anne and Kevin were both surprised at Selma's words. They didn't expect for her to be so level-headed about this.

Nonetheless, her reaction was great for them. She didn't cause any trouble after all.

They then returned to their home. Selma immediately picked Eddy up and retired to her room. Looking at Kevin, Anne said, "Someone messed up our plan."

She truly believed so. Otherwise, how could Bob's parents know about the plan, let alone get their hands on so much money overnight?

Kevin nodded with a cold expression etched on his face. It was obvious that someone deliberately exposed them.

"I'll find it out who did it," he said gravely.

While it was true that they were not in A City, Kevin still had connections in this place. He had formed a relationship with the police officers here back when he was still looking for Anne. If he came to them, they would surely help him.

Tiredly, Anne closed her eyes and nodded. She always felt guilty these days, especially whenever she saw Bob and his mother smiling together. Now that her real intentions had been revealed, she felt very relieved.

She herself hated to be lied to; so, of course, she didn't want to do that to others. Bob's mother probably thought the same. To add, it wasn't like she was asking for some irrelevant thing, it was about Bob's heart and life!

The request was hard to accept so it was normal for the parents to kick her out. Anne couldn't be angry at them because if someone asked for her son's heart, she would probably want to kill them!

Kevin stood up and looked at Emily who instantly understood what he wanted her to do. Worried about Kevin, Sam followed him.

While in the room, Selma quietly held Eddy in her arms.

"What are you thinking about, Mom?" Anne's voice suddenly interrupted.

Selma's eyes looked cold and flashed with a murderous intent. Looking down on Eddy, she smiled and kissed his forehead. Then, she turned to Anne. "You think too much of others and are always sentimental. You complicate simple problems too. For me, it's not that hard of a situation."

The sudden sermon was confusing. Anne frowned and waited, but Selma didn't say anything else.

Shaking her head, Anne went back to her room. She slowly closed her eyes as she tiredly lay on the bed. Just when she was about to succumb to sleep, someone knocked on the door. She stood up and opened it to a very anxious Emily.

The look on Emily's face was grim. She gritted her teeth and said, "Anne, Mrs. Selma went out just now. I'm afraid she'll go to the hospital."

They didn't tell Selma about Bob's ward but there was no doubt that she could find that information out herself.
