Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 12

Ruth was forced to leave Anne's villa. Even though she was resentful, she still kept an apologetic smile on her face when she left.

Cherry taught her how to target other's weakness aggressively and belittle others while degrading herself.

She asked Ruth to make Anne angry; otherwise, she would've degraded herself by apologizing to Anne. However, Ruth didn't know if the mission had been completed.

Anne rubbed her eyebrows tiredly as she watched Ruth leave.

Sam's face darkened. "Are you feeling uncomfortable?" he asked.

"I'm a little sleepy." Anne's voice sounded weak and lethargic.

But in reality, she was just holding back her anger. However, her attempt at doing that failed even before she could notice.

'Ruth knew that Kevin cared about Cherry, didn't she?' Anne thought to herself. 'I've seen all kinds of things and yet why do I feel annoyed by what Ruth had just said to me?'

When she thought of the baby, it finally dawned on her. It turned out that the reason why it was so easy for her to get angry was because she was pregnant.

"Lunch is ready. Have some soup before you go to bed," Sam suggested.

Anne's mouth twitched. She was able to stand up but her entire body felt like it was going to collapse on its own. But for her child, she could bear anything.

Inside the president office of the AN Group, documents littered the desk. Even the temporary bookshelf was full of documents.

They contained information about the projects that Anne was in charge of. Kevin had asked the managers to hand them over today.

He wasn't expecting to receive so many documents, which made his head ache today.

The most annoying thing was how his mother complained to him about Anne while he was busy with work.

"Who does she think she is?" Selma said indignantly. She is just pregnant with the baby of the Fu Family! How dare she ask my people to leave? Has she forgotten who she is? She's so ignorant! She's nothing compared to Cherry. I won't allow her to stay in the Fu Family anymore once the baby is born."

Kevin didn't want to hear any more of her mother's complaints. "I have something to deal with," he said coldly.

He was about to hang up the phone when suddenly, he remembered something. "Don't send people there anymore. I have already done it. Sam is taking care of her. Don't worry about her staff."

Even though he was stern in his words, he still felt that his mother wasn't listening. "Don't disturb her without my permission," he said with an even more serious tone.

He hung up the phone as soon as he finished.

It would have been fine if Kevin didn't mention Sam. However, when it came to him, he felt a little bit uncomfortable as though there was a thorn scratching his heart.

He paced back and forth in the office. No matter how much he tried to calm himself down, he couldn't relieve the restlessness that invaded his body. He grabbed the phone and called Emily.

The reason why he had asked Emily to take care of Anne was for her to look out after Sam.

Although Anne was pregnant, leaving her under the care of a male doctor still concerned him.

"How is my son today? Has he eaten already?" Kevin's expression betrayed no emotions as he stood in front of the French window. Even though the light cast a longer shadow of him, his majestic and regal aura was still as cold as that of an emperor.

Emily was baffled when she heard the question. The baby was still inside Anne's abdomen. How could it possibly eat?

'Mr. Kevin, you're so in denial. Just admit that you care about Anne, ' she thought to herself.

Although in her heart, she had some complaints about Kevin, she still answered him with respect, "The Little Master and Anne are both well. However, Ruth came by today and she made Anne angry so she went to bed early after lunch."

"What?!" Kevin's pupils dilated in rage and his face became even colder than usual. "Ruth?! What was she doing there?!"

"She..." Emily couldn't find the words to explain. If she told him that Ruth had been there to apologize, then it would seem that Ruth did nothing wrong.

She racked her brain for answers but nothing came out. After a few seconds, she just said, "Ruth told Anne that that you loved Cherry very much."

The rage in Kevin's eyes suddenly died down. He felt confused by his emotions. How could he feel so bitter yet also feel a hint of sweetness?

He brushed off this feeling and asked directly, "What exactly did she say? Tell me the truth!"

Emily exaggerated Ruth's indirect accusation of Anne to Kevin.

Upon hearing this, Kevin smashed his fist on the glass. Fuming with anger, he said, "In the future, no one is allowed to enter Anne's house without my permission."

"I see, Mr. Kevin," Emily said in an upbeat tone. "I will take good care of Anne for you and I'll make sure nothing happens to her and the Little Master."

Kevin hung up the phone forcefully. He was still enraged. He calmed himself down and paced back and forth, each step echoing a large thud. After a few steps, his eyes darkened in realization. He knew he needed to take action.

Kevin stopped. He looked for Alan in his contact list and dialed him as fast as he could.

Immediately, Alan picked up. "Kevin, to what I owe the pleasure of your call?" he said, smiling. "I heard that..."
