Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 506 A Devastating Gunshot

When Anne was about to leave, a policeman suddenly got in her way. It turned out that Alan wanted to have a word with her.

Because of Cherry's arrangement and Luke's request before the car accident, the police who worked here treated Alan in the best way possible. Therefore, they were willing to help him.

In the beginning, Anne wanted nothing to do with him. However, after giving it a second thought, she agreed to his request. As a matter of fact, she had no clue as to why Alan wanted to see her, but she wasn't afraid.

They proceeded to take a seat at the nearest table and ended up face to face with each other. Alan examined her closely, wearing a gentle smile on his face. Nonetheless, Anne could see the coldness behind it.

Out of nowhere, the lady let out a heavy sigh. It was safe to say that Anne felt defeated. She realized that, without Kevin, Alan wouldn't only seek revenge against Cherry but also her!

The man sitting in front of her wasn't like the others. He was a madman; he had lost his mind. In fact, his sole purpose in life was to seek revenge against the people who hurt him.

The silence was too deafening, so Anne had to say something to break the tension. "Did you want to tell me something?"

Once again, Alan put on a smile. "I imagine you're living the life you've always wanted."

Anne frowned at his condescending tone, but decided not to say anything.

Unfortunately, this meant they had fallen back into a silent state.

The lady couldn't stand the current atmosphere, so she interrupted their silent battle with a heavy sigh. "The past is riddled with too many coincidences and misunderstandings. There are too many regrets and some people are no longer with us. This is what it's come to. We just can't turn back time!

I'm perfectly aware that out of all of us, you are the one who can't let go of the past. When you persuaded Andrew, I knew that, deep inside, you were still a kind-hearted person. Can't you please get over it? You have to face up to the fact that she won't come back!

If your sister was still alive, she wouldn't want you to feel like this! She wanted you to get on with your life!"

What Anne failed to notice after giving her long speech was that Alan's demeanor had changed for the worst. His gaze was filled with disdain toward her! It was easy to say all of that when she wasn't the one suffering! No one, even if they tried, could feel the pain he bore in his heart.

"Anne, if I kill your son, would you forgive me?" It was a straightforward question. Alan crossed his arms and stared at her coldly with undisguised hatred in his eyes.

All of a sudden, the expression on Anne's face radically changed. All she cared was her family, so she would sacrifice herself for them without a doubt. If someone dared to lay a finger on her children, there would be hell to pay.

"If you ever hurt my child, I'll kill you!" It was safe to say that her contorted face could make someone freeze on the spot. Her head was facing down but her cold eyes were looking forward at Alan.

The latter could only sneer. Then, he slowly stood up and looked at the lady with disdain. "Anne, I know it was not you who killed my sister, but I want you to know that I still hate you. You're not the saint you think you are.

I lost my dear family, you didn't. You think that with that speech of yours you were going to persuade me into giving up? But what if your children died? Wouldn't you want revenge too? Or will you just simply give up and let it go?

Don't do unto others what you don't want others to do unto you. Have you heard that saying before? Think before you speak, because this is not a good image for you."

Without saying another word, Alan turned on his heels and left. He didn't even give Anne a last look.
