Attracted By My Ex-wife

Kevin heaved a sigh of helplessness. It seemed that, in the past few weeks, Anne had been working hard to design an outfit for Cherry and was now indeed burned out.

Days went by reasonably quickly, and before long, three days had passed.

Anne and Kevin were A City's powerful figures. Besides, they owned a reputable entertainment company under AN Group, so it was perfectly natural for them to grace the classy awards ceremony and sleek after-party.

They settled down on the seats in the large venue's center aisle to avoid drawing unnecessary attention from the packed crowds.

However, despite their efforts to shy away from the limelight, their striking appearances made it impossible for them not to stand out in a sea of faces.

Most of those who attended the event were celebrity guests wearing fashion-forward outfits. Their gazes passed over the faces in the crowd, and when they saw Kevin, whom none of them could reach before, they spared no effort in sucking up to him, hoping to land a good script and more work opportunities. However, Kevin and Anne remained casually indifferent and received their courtesies without enthusiasm.

The instant everyone felt the cold shoulder, they knew it was a remote possibility for them to be noticed. Disenchanted, they returned to their seats.

However, the majority of those who took the long shot was unwilling to give up. Cherry's stature had instantly been jacked up when the word of Cherry and Kevin's scandal leaked into the press back then. These people thought that earning Kevin's altruism would boost up their position in the entertainment circle.

Sad to say, with the exclusion of his wife, Anne, this cold-faced CEO had a tongue-in-cheek wit that made him take any other woman with a straight face.

Such action of his triggered off a sense of despondency in them.

Whether deliberate or random, many people's gazes landed on Anne as they mulled over how a slut like her could win Kevin's heart. They weighed up the qualities she possessed for her to warrant Kevin's love.

The reactions of envied persons were discernible as they felt the need to diminish her through judgmental stares. Anne had likewise caught the attention of many curious eyes.

If this happened in the past, Anne would have flurried and racked up her nerves.

She unknowingly tightened the grip on her studded purse. When she glanced at her wrist to check the time, she realized that Cherry would arrive soon.

"Don't get worked up now. Have faith in yourself." Kevin's voice was deep, gravelly, and his words were slowly spoken. He interlocked his slender fingers with hers, giving her some warmth and a surge of incomparable energy.

Anne looked up and met his gentle gaze. Her head nodded forward, and she suppressed the uneasiness in her heart with deep, bated breaths.

At last, her breathing grew steady again.

Outside the grand hall, a sleek, black limousine pulled up on the wide red carpet. Then, a yellow tulle lace cocktail dress that revealed a pair of long slender legs came down the car for the reporters to see. Countless camera shutters instantly flashed to document this grand entrance.

Slowly, the female's full figure emerged, and in a flash, everyone appeared stunned.

Back in the day, Cherry would normally put on a dainty dress that looked comfy and sweet. But this time, she went for a big, off-shoulder dress embroidered with a flying phoenix, highlighting her snow-white, slender arms.

Her choice of makeup further jazzed up her look, which looked remarkably different from her usual preference. Today, she outlined her eyes with dark, smoky eye shadows, and she perked up her pout with a vibrant red lipstick that screamed classic elegance. She even styled her hair in a graceful bun.

Such a striking image made her look absolutely gorgeous. Her every move embodied her effortless grace and magnanimity.

Although she appeared to be relatively young during her public appearances before, she was only putting on a front.

As soon as she stepped foot on the red carpet, Cherry blinked slowly. She fathomed that she no longer had to pretend to hide her authenticity.
