Attracted By My Ex-wife
Chapter 512 Homecoming
Alan was released from prison. He arrogantly swaggered into Cherry's house.
He did not let Cherry know he'd be coming by. When Cherry had finally come back from her visit at the hospital, it was quite late at night. She was startled that the lights were on in her house. She wanted to call the police, afraid that a thief might be inside, but after considering her identity as a celebrity, she though it wise not to contact them. She cautiously opened the front door.
Cherry felt rather lucky that she had not jumped to any conclusions, and impulsively called the police.
She was greeted by the sight of Alan casually seated in the lounge, the TV blaring.
All color drained from her face when she saw him. She heaved a burdensome sigh.
"What? Are you actually surprised? Don't be rude. Why don't you welcome me back?" Alan put down the beer he had been drinking and turned to face her. He seemed to be in good spirits and had a jocund tone.
He had been incarcerated at that horrid prison for quite some time. Now that he was finally free, it made sense that he would be in such a cheery mood.
Cherry forced a smile and shook her head in response. She tried to calm her nerves. She approached him and said, "Of course I am happy to see you've finally been released from that hell hole, unharmed. Have you eaten? Are you hungry?"
Alan looked her up and down, trying to gauge her stance. He had forced her to spend intimate moments with Luke and caused her much grief. He figured that she must be so livid that she would want to kill him, once and for all. He wondered how it was humanly possible that she could hold back her anger after everything he had done.
Regardless of what she was possibly feeling, she walked straight to the fridge, took out a selection of fresh vegetables and made her way to the preparation counter in the kitchen.
After a long and tiring day, she went straight to the hospital to pay Luke a visit, before she had even had dinner. She was ravenous.
She rinsed off the vegetables and began chopping them carefully. She could feel Alan's eyes on her and looked up. Their eyes met. In this light, his eyes looked even darker than she remembered, and she couldn't read the mixed, confusing expression on his face.
She thought that maybe she had looked up so quickly that Alan had no time to avert his gaze. He immediately broke eye contact.
"I've already eaten something. Plus, I wouldn't risk eating a meal cooked by you, anyway. I want to live for a few more years at least." Finishing his sentence, he plonked himself back on the couch. He started thinking about the situation. Since she could hire a killer to deal with Luke, it was possible that she might poison food that she gave him. He would have to be very cautious from now on.
He realized that this woman was capable of anything.
She understood exactly what he was getting at with that statement. Her mouth twisted into a sneer as she continued chopping the vegetables. 'Isn't it his fault anyway that my life has become so miserable?' she thought wryly.
Plus, she wasn't stupid enough to poison him in her own home.
It made it easier for her if she didn't have to cook for him too. She put some of the ingredients back in the fridge since she'd just be making a single serving for herself. She got on with cooking, acting as if she was wholly unaffected by his presence or sly comments.
Alan appeared as if he were engrossed in watching television, but he was actually paying close attention to the sounds she was making in the kitchen. He heard her chewing as well as the sound of her chopsticks gently tapping against her dish.
She was way too calm for his liking. He had thought she would detest him, treating with him contempt, especially after their most recent fallings-out. He had not imagined, not even in his wildest dreams, that she would just pretend like nothing had happened.
But was this actually all to her behavior... was there perhaps more?
