Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 449 Emily Was Pregnant

Anne and Kevin looked at each other with gloomy eyes, trying to find solace in each another. However, after their interaction, they felt even more helpless.

'What would propel a father to do this?' they thought to themselves, in search of an answer. 'Why would he let his son endure a few more dreadful years in prison?'

The real question was what had really happened between them. What was the reasoning behind the father choosing to let his son suffer in prison for a few more years while he was getting on for seventy?

Much to the couple's chagrin, the man in question kept silent, so Anne and Kevin were unable to figure out the cause.

"I just can't let it go." Her pleading eyes travelled all the way up to her husband's face. She felt weak and vulnerable.

Kevin smiled and nodded in agreement. Indeed, Anne was right. However, the old man was so stubborn that they had no other choice but to accept it.

"We are unfamiliar with W City and, you know, we can't take care of him. It just seems that this is our fate. We can't do anything about it." Anne shook her head. She couldn't face the horrible truth.

Kevin gave up trying to console her, so he chuckled and lowered his eyes. He figured everyone had their own destiny. So, the only thing he wanted was to be in control of their own lives and carry on without regrets.

After they came back to the hotel, Anne and Kevin packed their luggage and realized that they had more things than expected.

Therefore, her hand rested nervously on her forehead, as she was trying to find a solution. Since they had purchased so many things at the mall, they had no choice but to figure out a way of taking all the things with them.

"Should we just let the hotel send the package back?" Kevin suggested the idea given their current situation. He flashed Anne a small smile in a bid to convince her.

In the end, this was the only possibility, so Anne nodded in agreement.

Late at night, when the couple was about to fall asleep, Kevin's phone suddenly rang. He woke up and immediately looked at the number, but he couldn't help raising his eyebrows in surprise.

"It's so late. What's up?" Kevin whispered in a soft voice, as he was checking up on Anne who was curling up in his arms.

"I've thought long and hard about it and I've decided I can't hide this from you anymore. It's time for me to tell you the truth. I've reached a certain age and when my time comes, I will feel ashamed for not facing the consequences of my actions," said the old man with incredible calm.

Anne had held her breath during the man's long speech, but her eyes lit up at the realization. The old man was finally willing to tell them the truth.

It was safe to say that she was extremely excited to hear it.

Kevin put the old man on speaker phone and his voice was now much louder on the other side. "You have to know that my injury was caused by none other than Abel!"

Anne and Kevin frowned at each other in disbelief. In the end, although they had already guessed it, it turned out to be Abel.

Unfortunately, the news didn't surprise them.

Every time Anne and Kevin met with him, they had this recurring feeling that the old man's wound had something to do with Abel. Nevertheless, they couldn't say anything about the topic, since he was the old man's child. But now the truth was out.

'Abel is such an asshole!'

Anne cursed internally.
