Attracted By My Ex-wife

Only two people were in the car, Kevin, who was driving, and Anne. When the latter turned to look at her husband, she felt some tension between them. Anne tried to recall what had happened during the day. However, apart from her fall, she didn't do anything out of line. It was safe to say she had no clue as to why Kevin looked so unhappy.

"All I did was drink a little too much. I just didn't want you to worry about me, that's all. I felt a little dizzy, and that's why I bumped into Sam by accident," explained Anne carefully. Her gaze was still fixated on Kevin.

"Really?" His tone of voice was incredulous.

"Nothing more?" Kevin then stopped the car on the side of the road. He switched off the engine and sat there in silence. During this moment, which seemed like an eternity, his eyes were fixed on the steering wheel. Unwilling to look at Anne, he lit a cigarette and proceeded to enjoy the suffocating smoke.

"No, that's all that happened! The alcohol just got the best of me. I wasn't expecting the effect it would have on me."

But the silent man in the driver's seat chose not to say anything.

Anne, anxious by the lack of response from her husband, tried to go over her actions. There must have been something else she had done. Unfortunately, she felt lost. What was more, the sight of Kevin, who was surrounded by a cloud of dark smoke, added to her feeling of helplessness. She had already felt very embarrassed at the luncheon, and now Kevin's attitude made her feel even worse.

"Nothing else comes to mind," Anne whispered, as she tried to suppress the nervousness in her voice. However, the tears in her eyes revealed her true emotions.

Anne had made a fool of herself when she first officially met Sam, and that was out of the question. Nevertheless, she never figured this would be such a serious issue for Kevin. After all, it was all an accident. Alas, she was given the cold shoulder by her own husband.

Of course, the latter, who was still immersed in his thoughts, failed to acknowledge her emotions.

Anne lowered her head and silently wiped the tears off her eyes. Then, she took a look at the man next to her. Kevin refused to return the look, so he threw away the cigarette and started the car.

Some minutes had passed when they finally arrived at the hotel. Kevin parked the car and immediately went to get Anne from her seat. He held her in his arms and walked back to their room, ignoring all the murmurs and surprised faces.

Similar to the night before, Anne was carried back to their shared bed. Unfortunately, the mood had radically changed between the two.

She sat on the edge of the bed and recalled the beautiful night they had shared the night before, and the warmth of this morning when she woke up in his arms. She suddenly felt out of control.

She lowered her head and bit her lips, trying her best to restrain herself. She didn't want Kevin to see right through her.

The latter, however, noticed the way Anne was behaving. She was sitting on the bed in a simple dress, which revealed her pale neck covered by her glossy hair.

The neckline of the dress was rather low and inviting. Her waist was wrapped up with a belt, which highlighted her slim silhouette. The irregular hemline of the dress and her milky-white delicate skin made her look cute.

All of these details made Kevin remember the way she looked at the party today. The corner of her dress was raised. Her eyes revealed her cheerful self. He could see how she was satisfied when tasting the wine due to her facial expressions. It was obvious that she wanted to grab something to eat, but chose to restrain herself instead.
