Attracted By My Ex-wife

A couple of days later, the Fu Family welcomed a few guests on their doorstep. It was Rose and Mark, together with their precious daughter, Paula.

When the doorbell rang, Selma came to answer the door instead of Anne.

With arms folded across her chest, Selma didn't invite Rose in and gave her a long, condescending look, her hostile gaze sweeping over Rose slowly from head to toe.

After a few seconds, with a little sigh, a peaceful smile graced Rose's face as she greeted Selma politely, "Hello, auntie."

Sliding her gaze away from Rose, Selma lifted her brows nonchalantly and ignored her. Earlier, Anne already shed some light on what happened to Rose, but Selma couldn't believe her ears after hearing the story. Only a silly girl like Anne would consider a statement coming straight from Rose's mouth.

If changing someone's personality was that simple, could Rose do it?

"Mark, I know you're a smart guy, so I want you to answer me honestly. What can you say about Rose's change?"

Selma asked him straight to the point, her voice not faltering a bit.

Embarrassment flashed across Mark's face, and a slight frown created little wrinkles around his eyes. But with Selma being older than him, he answered respectfully, "Auntie, people undergo pretty remarkable changes over time. Perhaps it would help if you looked at them with new eyes.

Let's take Kevin and Anne as an example. Back then, you were vehemently against their relationship. But at the current moment, you're already wishing them both love and true happiness, right?"

Presented with this point, Selma nodded in agreement.

"I'm a bit apprehensive regarding the sincerity of some people. Some people are so fixed in their ways that they cannot change. Who knows, they might have kept a few tricks up their sleeves."

Selma shook her head as she moved aside to let them walk in.

Embarrassed, Rose widened her eyes in shock, and she sighed helplessly. Her cold hands gripped Paula's hand tightly and led her inside the house.

What happened before was already a thing of the past. Like what Anne said, what mattered most to them was living in the present and hoping for the best in the future. As long as Rose tried her best to prove her reformation, Selma would eventually change her opinions on her.

After Anne was informed of the arrival of the guests, she felt excited and walked out happily to join them. A few days had gone by since their last meeting, and Anne instantly noticed the positive energy in Rose's aura, and her face looked more plump and full.

"Welcome! Please sit down and make yourself comfortable." Anne emerged and greeted them. Then she looked at Paula with a huge smile and her arms outstretched. "Paula, come give your aunt a warm hug."

They had met before, so Anne was no stranger to Paula. The girl directly squeezed into Anne's arms, who couldn't stop grinning.

A delightful smile surfaced on Rose's face when she saw the affectionate exchange. She couldn't help but ask, "How is Emily doing recently?"

Anne smiled warmly in return and replied, "Don't worry. Both of us did our best to ensure Emily's safety during that accident in the shopping mall, so I'm positive she would do just fine. Relax, all is well with her."

Rose anxiously nodded and settled down on the couch.
