Attracted By My Ex-wife

"The last time I was on a call with Anne, she really sounded as if her mind was somewhere else. So I called a connection in the city and he told me about the matters between you and TS Company. I also knew about the video on the internet," Peter said. "If you can't locate that person, you will always be cast in a suspicious light."

Kevin nodded. The person to whom Peter had referred was Colin.

There were no leads on him. No one had any idea where Colin could be.

As time went by, Ella had become increasingly worried. She had started to ask about her father about twice a day.

But now, there was no new information on him.

Last night, Ella had yet again had a terrifying dream that woke her from her sleep. Crying, she had knocked on Kevin and Anne's door and anxiously flung herself into the latter's arms for comfort.

They felt so sorry for this little girl, but there was really nothing they could do for her.

"You know, I have remembered how I behaved previously. I have taken it too far in the past. This time, I want to help you and I don't want any type of remuneration or reward. I want to make up for the mistakes I have committed in the past. What do you say?" Peter said this with a confident and assured smile on his face.

Anne and Kevin shared a look. They both then looked back at Peter.

"Are you aware that Kim is still alive?" Anne asked.

Although Peter was not a co-conspirator of Kim, and was not in Kim's immediate circle, Kim did trust him very much.

Peter raised his eyebrows, nodded, and said, "Of course I know."

"This whole thing has something to do with Kim. If you help us, you will be against Kim. Aren't the two of you friends?" she continued.

Peter smirked. He took a sip of his tea, then he said, "Anne, you could not be more wrong. Kim and I have never been friends!"

Anne and Kevin looked at each other in surprise.

Peter lowered his voice and elaborated, "Back then, Kim was aware of my true identity. He blackmailed me with this information. I really had no choice. But now, he really can't threaten me any longer. Even if I go against him directly to his face, what can he do?"

Peter was no longer the person he used to be. Now, he had done everything by the book. He was not scared of Kim at all!

It wasn't until he went abroad that he had realized he was at his happiest when he was a man who was self-made, self-assured, honest and confident.

That was why he had decided to pursue a career as a detective. He did his best to find out what the truth was in very difficult cases. The real murderer should stand trial and be convicted."

Hearing that, Anne and Kevin both smiled.

"In that case, thank you so much," Kevin said seriously. Since Peter had advised of the situation, he really wanted to enlist his assistance.

Plus, it had been a really long time since the incident had transpired yet there was no news from the police. Perhaps Peter could uncover some new clues.

Further, Peter knew Kim and his ways better than the police.

Peter gave a small nod, picked up the gift bag next to him and placed it on the table. "Simon and Sally had told me about what happened with Eddy. I'm sorry that I haven't had a chance to visit him at hospital, but I have got him a birthday present. Here."

Shaking her head, Anne said, "No, you don't have to worry about him. He has recovered as well as we could have hoped for. I think he'll likely be discharged quite soon."
