Attracted By My Ex-wife
Chapter 166 Disgraced

Upon hearing this, Cherry understood what he meant right away. "Garret, how dare you do this to me? Do you believe that I will tell everyone what kind of a person you are?"

Cherry started feeling like she was so unlucky. Kevin had just abandoned her and the next thing she knew, she met this greedy bastard, Garret.

"Garret, are you still even a human being? Yesterday, you told me you would marry me any time, for as long as I'd be willing to marry you." Cherry's face was distorted, regardless of her messy image.

"And what about it? Don't be so stupid, Cherry. Haven't you heard that in the business world, women are treated just like clothes? It's just that you are a little bit outstanding in appearance. Women like you can be found anywhere in the world." Garret's shameless face disgusted Cherry and made her regret setting herself against Kevin.

"Just wait, Garret. I won't let you go,"

Cherry said. She was ready. Her last resort would be to make amends with Kevin and live in the house arranged by him for her at the time. She would make plans for the future.

She then left angrily and a playful smile appeared on Garret's face. "Do you still want to play tricks on me? Do you still have the ability to do that?"

His voice was light but there was ruthlessness in his tone.

Meanwhile, in the HJ residential quarters,

there were not many people in this newly-established community. There were only just a few villas in this area.

However, their rates had increased drastically. It was under the RY Real Estate Company which belonged to the AN Group. Cherry's taxi had stopped there. She knew Kevin would be present there today because it was the project's date of completion.

A luxury car appeared in front of Cherry and she immediately saw Kevin's arrogant figure.

"Kevin!" yelled Cherry.

But Kevin did not get out of the car immediately. He knew that Cherry had given up the moment he saw her.

When he saw that Cherry wasn't looking confident enough, he slowly came out and asked her, "What is the matter with you?"

"Kevin, I know you must hate me very much, but I just got threatened by someone. It's Garret. He threatened me to cooperate with him. Also, how could I ever betray you? I love you so much, Kevin," Cherry said. Kevin smiled coldly when he saw Cherry lower her head.

"Then why are you back now?" He pretended to be surprised.

The hint of gentleness on his tone made Cherry think that he still thought she was a good person in his heart.

"Ah, the reason is that I really can't cooperate with Garret. At first, I thought that he just wanted to help me get back with you. I didn't expect that he just fooled me because he wanted to destroy your company. thought he was just bluffing."

Cherry wasn't very skilled at lying but her expression turned out to be very natural. She didn't feel guilty for what she had done.

"Oh, I see. Well, from now on, you may go back to your house and stay there. I will deal with the rest."

Seeing that Kevin was still considerate, Cherry actually felt a little happy. She thought that letting him know about Garret's scheme made him realize her importance.

"Okay, Kevin. Don't worry. From this day forward, I will just listen to whatever you say." After just having suffered a great loss, Cherry knew that the best way she could make Kevin allow her to stay was to neve go against his idea.

Cherry rode a car, and as Kevin watched her being driven away, the smile on his face grew bigger. Daniel was with him. He trembled because no one knew what was on his mind. Perhaps, the brighter his smile was, the angrier he was in his heart.

Anyone who was familiar with Kevin knew that he didn't have such a forgiving heart.

"Let's go and check out the new houses." Then Kevin stepped forward.

They saw a retro European style building under the blue sky with dark-colored plants trimmed at the door just a hundred meters away from where they stood. If a prospective client that pursued a romantic atmosphere came here, the place would definitely be to their liking.

"Daniel, just keep one villa here and don't sell it. Make it under Anne's name," Kevin ordered Daniel in a calm tone.

It seemed that what he was talking about wasn't a house worth a hundred million but roses for his wife.

"Okay, Mr. Kevin. That is duly noted. Where shall we head to next?" Daniel asked.

"You can head back to the company by yourself. I'll have to go to the hospital." After saying that, Kevin got inside his car and drove away before Daniel could react.

"Oh, my God! What's wrong with my boss? He has been so preoccupied with his personal affairs these days even while he's at work." Daniel had no idea whom his boss was going to visit in the hospital but he felt that it must have been a very important person to him.

This was a private hospital but its revenue mainly came from selling medical equipment, instead of treating people.

It wasn't meant to admit that many patients because they had also invested in another hospital downtown. Therefore, there were usually very few people here and the patients accepted were either relatives or very good friends of Sam.

When he came back, he heard that Anne was there with her child to have the kid's disease treated. He didn't take of his suit and went straight to the ward.

It was seven in the morning. The hospital room was painted in a color that could reflect light, which made the entire room brighter.

"You woke up so early," Sam said as he set breakfast on the table.

Anne was surprised at first to see that Sam had come back. She answered him with worry evident in her tone, "Yes, I'm always worried and anxious about the baby so I can't sleep for too long." Sam noticed the dark circles under her eyes and it made him sad and worried about her.

He couldn't replace the words to tell her because he knew that she would still worry about her baby no matter how much he would try to comfort her.

"Also, the baby hasn't even been named yet. Kevin is so lazy. Doesn't he even want to name his own baby?" Thinking about this made Anne really angry. Their baby had been born for a couple of months already but he still hadn't been named. She started thinking that maybe Kevin didn't really care for their child.

"In fact, after you left, Kevin was in a bad mood, and he didn't pay that much attention to the baby. However, I heard that he came here to visit you recently. He isn't completely ruthless to the baby and you." Sam found it hard to see through Kevin, despite the fact that they were friends. Sometimes, he would think that Kevin really didn't care about the two of them and sometimes it didn't seem so.

"Forget it. It's not your obligation to comfort me. As a matter fact, I don't expect anything from him anymore, anyway. But if he goes too far, I will definitely stop him. For now, he doesn't seem to act particularly bad to the child, though," Anne said, while she was lost in thought.

"Well, as for the baby's name, if Kevin doesn't give him one, just do it yourself. Your baby is adorable. He deserves a good name," Sam said in a comforting tone.

What he said warmed Anne's heart.

"Alright, I shall think about it.

In her heart, giving her child a name was a very important decision that would affect his son for a lifetime. She got reminiscent of the time when her mother told her why she named her Anne. She hoped that Anne would live a peaceful life. But now she started feeling like she had let her own mother down.

"Anne, it seems to me that you are in a bad mood. Why don't you go out for a little walk. Today's a good day. Maybe you can even take the baby out. A little sun's gonna be good for him, too."

Anne looked out the window without an expression on her face, but there was joy in her eyes. She answered, "Okay, but I am not sure if the baby will get a suntan."

"Don't worry. Put a coat on him and a hat on his head when you go out," Sam instructed Anne.

In Sam's eyes, Anne was different than before. She was not as cold and hard as she used to be. She looked gentler.

"Okay."

There were long chairs and swings made of artificial flowers vines out in the hospital gardens.

"Go up," Sam said, pointing at the swing.

"I don't think that's a good idea," Anne said hesitantly.

She had always thought that the swing was something for the children. She had never ridden a swing since she was a child. This would be her first time and to her, the idea felt wrong and odd. "Will you just let the baby sit on it all alone?" Seeing the embarrassment on Anne's face, Sam chuckled a little.

He was so used to seeing Anne's tough and strong front that when he saw her gritting her teeth and looking so embarrassed, it felt weird and funny to him.

"Of course, I won't do that," Anne replied at once.

"That's right. You sit on it with the baby in your arms. I'll gently shake you. Observe if it will make the baby laugh," said Sam.

This time, Anne was tempted. She suddenly smiled shyly and sat on the swing seat with her baby securely wrapped around her arms. "I'm ready."

The swing swayed gently. Because the baby was still too young and small. It wasn't suitable for him to be shaken that much so Anne set her feet on the ground, fearing that it would frighten her baby.

"Sure enough. He did smile." Anne reached out her hand and touched the baby's pink nose with a lovely smile painted on her face.

Kevin, who was looking for Anne not that far away, saw this wonderful scene. He swore it was the first time he had ever seen Anne so beautiful.

But when he saw that Sam was there, he felt a little unhappy. It bothered him that another man also saw such a beautiful side of this woman. "Why are you here?" Kevin asked while walking over to where they were at the garden.

All of a sudden, the mood changed and the smile on Anne's face had disappeared. "As you can see, we took out the baby to bask in the sun."

Damn it! Kevin frowned. He had meant to praise Anne for her beauty but that was what happened instead.

"Well, I meant to ask what made you decide to come here all of a sudden. Also, it seems indeed pleasing for women to casually play on the swing instead of being so mature, nowadays," Kevin rubbed his nose and said.

Was he praising her?

Looking up at Kevin for a long time, she found that he didn't intend any sarcasm. She then became a little restless and was at a loss for words for a long time. ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
