Attracted By My Ex-wife

The man had distinct facial features: thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was thin but not frail. He wasn't handsome and dashing, rather looked like a man next door.

The charm he exuded had the power to make anyone feel at ease.

The aura he emanated was different from that of Ryan or Peter. He was more of an easygoing man like Andrew. There was something about the man that made Anne trust him.

Hearing his words, she looked down at Eddy. "He is just a child. Please forgive him, sir." She smiled guiltily.

The man smiled in return, shaking his head. He glanced at his girl and asked Anne, "Is this little boy Eddy?"

Surprised by the direct question, Anne arched an eyebrow and nodded.

"Hello, my name is Colin Shen. This is my daughter, Ella Shen." He smiled, extending his hand.

Anne smiled and shook his hand. "My name is Anne Luo; I'm Eddy's mother."

Colin Shen arched an eyebrow in appreciation. "Ella has told me a lot about your son. She has admitted that she admires Eddy a lot. I heard your son top the class even though he doesn't go to school often.

I have always wanted to see the little boy who has left a lasting impression on my daughter's mind, but I didn't expect to meet him here."

Mothers always love hearing people praising their children. Anne's heart swelled with pride.

She knew that her son was smart and intelligent. However, she couldn't be arrogant in front of a stranger.

Anne looked at Ella Shen and flashed a warm smile. "Ella is a beautiful girl. Eddy has mentioned that she too is smart in class."

Ella Shen's eyes lit up; she looked at Eddy as a wide grin stretched across her lips. However, the little boy rolled his eyes and frowned with disapproval.

He had never mentioned Ella Shen to Anne, let alone praise her. His mother was ruining his reputation.

Colin Shen nodded. He knew that Anne was just being polite.

They talked for a while before going their separate ways.

After returning to the company, Anne handed the design to Rose and went home to have a good sleep.

The previous night's hard work had exhausted her.

That evening, Kevin went to pick up Eddy, and the two returned home together.

Anne was sitting on the sofa, eating fruit. She greeted them with a smile. "Hi, you're back."

Kevin nodded and plopped on the sofa beside her, rubbing his temples to ease the tension and exhaustion from work.
