Attracted By My Ex-wife
Chapter 354 The Thirty Million Ransom (Part Two)

A few days ago, Simon was dawdling around Rose when she ran out of patience. She pushed him just for the fun of it. It was unfortunate for her because Kim was watching that time. To punish her, he took a bottle of boiled water and poured it over her hands, causing blisters on her palms.

Until now, her hands still ached.

Only then did she realize that the man in front of her was not only terrible and vicious, but also evil.

"Rose, your face is exactly the same as Anne's, but how can prove that you are Rose, not her?" asked Kim while looking down at her. Although his voice was cold, it was lazy yet elegant.

His voice, like the Devil's, echoed in Rose's ears. She lowered her head to the ground, and her body trembled more than ever.

She knew better than to ignore Kim's question.

Now that she and Anne looked exactly alike, how could she prove her identity?

"I... I don't know," she admitted helplessly through gritted teeth.

Kim squinted his eyes and suddenly grabbed Rose's chin, making her shriek in fear. He then grabbed her hair, revealing her forehead.

If there was something different on her face from Anne's, it was her forehead. Unlike Anne, Rose did not have a wound on it.

That was enough to distinguish them apart.

Kim grabbed her forcefully and went upstairs. She struggled to get out of his grasp, but there was nothing she could do to resist him.

'Nobody can bully Anne except me!' Kim thought to himself.

On the other side, Anne and Kevin were dealing with their own affairs, unaffected by what others had said in public.

They even attended parties together. The way they showed affection to each other was witnessed by countless of people.

Some people said that their show of affection was only a show, while some said that it was a habit. However, more people wondered whether the woman in the photos was Anne or someone else.

What Kim could think of, Anne could think of it as well. When her forehead was injured, Selma treated it and covered it with bangs, so it would not be seen in the photos.

Wearing a delicate makeup, Anne combed her bangs diligently. She exuded beauty, and at the same time, intelligence.

Kevin stared at her forehead with burning eyes and a slight frown.

Although Anne did not want to mention anything about the wound, Kevin was still worried that she would be bothered by it. This was why he secretly contacted a cosmetician in order to remove the scar in the future.

He didn't expect that before he could tell Anne, so many things happened.

But now, the wound seemed significant that it could be used as evidence.

Meanwhile, Kevin and Anne would attend the wedding of a famous celebrity today. Since many reporters would be there, it would be the best time to take action.

In A City, inviting Kevin to an event was the most honorable thing to do.

Besides, Kevin and Anne's love affair caught the public's attention, quite comparable with a star's.

Because of this, the wedding of this celebrity drew the attention of everyone.

In the wedding venue, Kevin finally got out of the luxury limo while holding Anne's hand. Beside him, Anne smiled sweetly and happily under the gazes of the cameras.

As she walked, she twisted her ankle, making her fall to the ground. Fortunately, Kevin reacted quickly. He then held her tightly in his arms.

His gesture made Anne blush. She lowered her head in embarrassment, but Kevin's lips was curled into a sly smile. All of a sudden, he kissed her on the lips.

Anne was unprepared that when he kissed her, her mouth was slightly open. She never expected that he would do that, especially in front of many people. Now, that memory would be etched in the minds of many onlookers.

That sudden action caused the scar on her forehead to be exposed.

Because of this, more people sided with Anne. Besides, if she indeed cheated on his husband, he would not continue to love her so passionately!

Of course, there was still a lot who believed that the woman in the photo was none other than Anne.

While the two sides were busy fighting which side was true, Anne received a call from Ryan.

She looked at the number on the screen, but it was the public telephone number. Anne frowned at the sight of this. Then, she heard a man's voice at the other end of the line. "Is this Anne Luo?" A child-like voice came to Anne's ears.

Realizing that the person was using a voice changer, Anne was unmoved by it.

"Ryan, is that you?" She retained her sangfroid in the call. Her voice was extremely calm and there was no trace of nervousness in it.

"Ha-ha! Ryan was right. He said that you'd remember him. Anyway, we've kidnapped him. His life is in our hands. If you want to save him, you'll have to pay a price. Thirty million dollars. No more, no less. If not, we will kill him.

You know the rules. You can't call the police! Otherwise, we will take him to hell with us!

Also, we only want cash! We won't accept different form of payment. I'll give you two days to give us what we demand. Wait for our next call. We will contact you then."

After saying that, the man hung up the phone. Anne looked at her phone with a frown.

This was ridiculous! Ryan was kidnapped and they asked for a ransom!

Anne informed Kevin right away. When Kevin heard the news, a sneer appeared on his face. Thirty million dollars! How dare they?!

"Kevin, what do you think we should do now?" asked Anne who was a little hesitant.

She figured that this was all Ryan's trick. Since he could not get what he wanted, he did this instead to swindle money.

It had to be said that his every move was disappointing.

Now, everyone was arguing whether the woman in the photos was Anne or Rose. Only if Ryan, the man in the photos, appeared could he prove her innocence.

Due to the scandal, the stocks of AN Group was falling these days. If it went on, the shareholders would pressure Kevin and stress him out.

Not only that, if the stock market plummeted, the loss would be worse and would cost more than thirty million dollars.

Ryan had been unscrupulous in his methods. First, he disclosed the photos, and now, he wanted them to hand over millions of money.☐☐☐
