Attracted By My Ex-wife

As soon as the officer said that, he firmly closed his mouth and looked at Anne worriedly.

Everyone knew what happened to Kevin. And although many cops in the police station had gone to search for him, there was still no news yet.

Even though hearing nothing might be good, the longer the delay, the more likely there would be a worst-case scenario.

Anne gazed up at the ceiling with tears in the corners of her eyes. Taking a deep breath and flashing a gentle while, she uttered resolutely, "I trust you. I believe in this society ruled by law!"

The policeman nodded and pursed his lips once more.

No matter what, they couldn't disappoint her.

After getting out of the police station, Anne prepared to go home, but as soon as she got into the car, her phone rang.

The moment she saw the unlisted number, she knew it was Kim. Frowning, she slid the screen and answered it.

"Anne? Do you think the police can catch me?" Kim asked directly the second their lines connected.

From the moment she left her house, she knew that someone was closely tailing and keeping an eye on her. So, she was not surprised when he called her.

"I believe they can!" Her voice was firm as she spat those words.

"If they really are capable, then why am I still alive?" Kim sarcastically retorted. With a smirk, he then added, "They are just a bunch of useless people."

"Kim, don't be so arrogant. The world doesn't revolve around you. I don't care if you don't believe in the police, but I do. And I'm willing to wait no matter how long it takes just to put you behind bars forever!" Extremely irked, Anne hung up the phone.

Yes, what he said was true, but it didn't matter.

She just needed to believe in the police and in societal justice.

That night, all the people who cared about Anne called her. After all, the next day would be the day she'd register herself on a one-way ticket to hell––she and Kim would go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get married.

However, she remained calm and collected. There was neither any trace of panic nor anguish in her eyes, much to everyone's surprise.

Even Eddy couldn't help but question why his mother had suddenly changed.

The latter seemed to have sensed what his son was thinking. So, with a deep breath, she uttered, "Eddy, trust me. I will always be your mother and your father's wife. I won't take any risk, and I promise to come back safely."

As her eldest son, Eddy was special and would always be her most sensible child in the world.

The young boy didn't say anything and just looked at Anne quietly. Although the latter's eyes were dark, a gentle smile was etched on her face. There was no hint of dread, only peace and composure.

So, Eddy was reassured that her mother would keep her words and that his father would come back soon.

Although he didn't know why he had such a feeling, he knew it would happen.

Without saying anything more, he turned away.
