Attracted By My Ex-wife

Anne gently scraped the thin layer of cream on top of the dessert and took a bite of it. A bitter, obnoxious feeling churned inside her.

She turned to look at Kevin. The man was eating slowly as if he could feel nothing.

Anne's nose involuntarily crinkled as she couldn't stomach the food.

"Mom, isn't it delicious?" Ella looked at Anne with wide, expectant eyes.

Anne nodded. "Yes, it is yummy!"

The two somehow managed to finish the dessert and found an excuse to leave the hospital. They quickly got into the car and drove to the police station.

The dead body was sent to the police station for inspection. They had to take a DNA test to find out if it was Colin or not.

"Mr. and Mrs. Fu, the corpse is decayed beyond recognition. We can't identify the person. You two, please wait here. Otherwise, it might scare you." The policeman covered his mouth with a handkerchief and walked in.

They had never seen such a disgusting corpse in their experience. Even brave police officers couldn't look at it.

Anne and Kevin agreed to stay back. They couldn't witness the cruel scene.

The two sat on the chairs, waiting for the police. Every minute felt like an hour.

After what seemed like forever, a policeman walked out. "Mr. and Mrs. Fu, the results are out. It is not Mr. Colin."

Anne's eyes lit up with joy. "That's great! Wonderful!" She clapped her hands excitedly.

The nagging sensation in her heart finally ceased. They were happy that it wasn't Colin. It gave them the hope that the man was alive somewhere.

Kevin closed his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.

The two walked out of the police station. It was a bright, sunny day. The two held hands and looked at the clear sky.

Life was filled with ups and downs. However, they weren't afraid of the obstacles and difficulties that laid ahead. Their love was stronger than any problem in the world. They could rise above everything as long as they had each other.

Just then, Anne's phone rang. She squinted at the unknown number flashing on the screen.

Kevin leaned closer and saw the caller ID. "It looks like an international call."

A frown lined Anne's forehead. They didn't have any close friends who lived abroad.

"You will know who it is, only if you answer the call." "Hello," Anne answered hesitantly.

She heard a burst of faint laughter. "Guess who I am," said a tender voice.

Anne's lips curled up.
