Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 500 Mutual Agreement

Anne got off work at noon that day, so she made her way to kindergarten to pick up Eddy and Ella.

Perhaps it was because they had been living together for some time now, the two kids were getting along really well as the days passed. Ella had become an honorary member of the Fu Family.

She had been born in a wealthy and good-natured family but she lost her mother when she was still just a baby. Her father was very often away on business. He was a wonderful father when he was around but it just never fully made up for the time that he spent away on business.

What was more, Ella was a good friend to Eddy, which made Anne have an even greater sympathy and affection for her.

During this time period that she stayed with them, Anne treated her just as she would treat her own daughter, and cared for her with all her heart.

Although Ella was still too little to understand the complexity of emotions, she understood the basics and was quite sensitive and discerning. She knew whether someone was being sincere or not. Sensing the sincerity of Anne, she grew to really love her.

Anne arrived at the school a little earlier than the time the kids were to be dismissed. She got off her vehicle and waited outside.

"Mrs. Anne!" A familiar voice suddenly came from behind. Anne turned to see who had called her.

It was Colin!

A look of pleasant surprise appeared on Anne's face. "It's so nice that you're back from your trip!"

Colin smiled but avoided making eye contact with her. The kids had just been dismissed but the teachers were trying to get them into an orderly line so that they did not fall in their rush to get to their parents.

"Daddy!" Ella squeaked, thrilled at the surprise. She and Eddy had walked out of the schools gates together. She ran up to her Dad, her happiness apparent on her little face.

Ella really enjoyed her time she had spent with the Fu Family, but regardless of how well they got along, they were not her own blood.

For Ella, no one could compare to her wonderful father.

With a wide smile, Colin squatted down so that she could run into his arms. He held her affectionately and planted a little kiss on her forehead.

"Sweetheart, did you miss me?" Looking at his beautiful little girl, Colin did not try to hide the unconditional love from showing on his face.

With her arms around Colin's neck, Ella nodded vigorously. "Of course, Daddy. I really missed you a lot. I'm so happy that you're finally back."

Colin smiled and touched her nose. Then he turned to Anne and said, "Mrs. Anne, thank you for taking such good care of my darling Ella."

Anne shook her head. "She is such a wonderful little kid. It is only a pleasure to have her."

Colin smiled gratefully. He wanted to say something more but stopped himself after some consideration.

Anne had interacted with a diversity of people over the years and had developed the ability to read them like an open book. Colin did not do a good job of disguising that he had just been about to say something else. She instantly knew there was something he was holding back.
