Attracted By My Ex-wife

Anne got busier with every passing day. She spent all her time designing Cherry's outfit.

Her entire routine had changed after she took up the project. Anne left early in the morning and came home late at night after everyone retired to bed.

Eddy was getting older. He had lots of homework and assignments to complete. Therefore, he went to bed early. He hadn't seen his mother for many days and missed her a lot.

Eddy was a sensible boy. He never asked for too much. Although the little boy missed Anne, he kept it to his heart and never complained. However, Selma was aware of her grandson's feelings. She understood that Eddy was suppressing all his emotions in his heart.

Selma looked at Kevin with a disgruntled look. "I understand that Anne is busy working hard to establish her company, but family comes first. The children are more important; she has to spend time with them regardless of how busy she is."

Selma didn't care about Anne's new company. Her grandchildren meant everything to her and she wouldn't compromise their happiness for anything in the world.

Kevin felt helpless because Anne had really been busy. They were getting closer to the ceremony, and he knew that his wife would be free after that.

"Mom, Cherry is nominated for the role of best actress. As her designer, Anne will be busy for the next few days. But she will get free once the ceremony is over. Please understand her." Kevin smiled apologetically and added more food to Selma's bowl.

The frown on Selma's forehead deepened. She glanced at Eddy and sighed. "Your mother has always wanted to be a designer. Now that she finally has the chance to prove herself, we all should be happy for her."

Selma understood Anne's situation but felt sad for her grandson as well.

Meanwhile, Anne was still in the office, oblivious to what was going on in her house.

She devoted all her time and energy into designing Cherry's outfit. She inspected every intricate stroke and supervised embroidery workers to embroider the dress.

Although Anne was good at conceptualizing and designing, she wasn't good at embroidery. Therefore, she hired the best embroidery workers to make the outfit.

Handmade dresses had a personal touch and looked more elegant. Therefore, she chose to craft every detail with hand.

Emily somehow found out that Anne had finished designing Cherry's outfit. After dinner, she asked Sam to take her to Anne's office.

Anne was happy to see Emily; her gaze instantly flitted to the woman's stomach. Emily had been pregnant for more than two months, yet her belly was still flat.

"Is this Cherry's dress?" Emily's eyes lit up in awe as she looked at the sketch.

"Yes, this is the one." Anne smiled.

"Oh my God! I never thought that Cherry could wear such a majestic dress." People had already developed an impression of Cherry after watching her performances. However, the computer generated pictures left Emily baffled.

"The audience will be amazed to watch Cherry in your dress," Sam agreed.

Everyone was aware of Anne's talent, but they didn't expect her to come up with a stunning design.

If Cherry appeared in this dress, she would outshine all the other female stars and captivate everyone's attention. Moreover, after the event, the world would realize Anne's talent.
