Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 128

Anne rushed towards Kevin and began slamming her fists on his chest, letting out all the anger that she had nursed in her heart.

Why did he treat her like this? Why?

Kevin neither pushed her away nor did he stop her.

It was obvious that she was angry and she needed to let out her anger so he just let her.

When she was tired, Kevin pulled her into his arms and held her tightly.

Her brain told her to push him away but her heart objected.

"Kevin, do you have any idea how much you hurt me? Why? Why didn't you believe me?"

He chose to believe in Cherry over her. He chose to believe that Cherry was kind and she was evil.

"I won't hurt you anymore."

He too was mad at her. He knew of the many bad things that she had done yet in the end, he still couldn't help but fall in love with her.

A wave of complex emotions arose in her heart. She ignored what he said as she struggled out of his arms and pushed him out the door, promptly slamming the door to his face.

She feared that if she heard his voice again, her heart would soften. She hated it when she couldn't control her own emotions.

Kevin frowned slightly as he looked at the closed door, anger flickering in his eyes. In the end, he decided against knocking again.

He took his phone out and dialed his secretary's number. Flatly, he ordered,

"Clean up these roses for me."

It seemed that the idea his secretary gave him did more harm than good. Instead of making progress, Anne had shut him out.

Upon hearing Kevin's unhappy, his secretary asked cautiously,

"Mr. Kevin, did it not go well today?"

"Did you think that stupid idea of yours would work? What kind of idea was that anyway?" He lashed into his secretary, airing out his frustrations.

He briefly considered firing his secretary for that piece of terrible advice that was of no use to him.

"I looked it up on the internet. That's odd. It should have worked."

His secretary sounded confused. Generally, women liked roses. This kind of sweet gesture was a surefire way to win any woman's heart.

"You got that idea from the internet?" Kevin hissed.

"Well, not really. I also based it on my experience. I don't have much so I looked it up on the internet to be sure."

His secretary quickly defended himself upon hearing Kevin's stone cold voice. Why did he have to let that slip out? Now Kevin sounded pissed.

As it turned out, he had guessed correctly.

"I'm deducting half a year's worth of bonuses from your salary!" He couldn't believe his damn secretary was stupid enough to rely on the internet for advice on getting Anne back. Was he trying to make a fool of him?

"Mr. Kevin, could you please sympathize with me? Five months of my salary has already been knocked off my pay. If you take away my bonuses too, I'm going to end up eating dirt for all my meals."

His secretary felt like crying but tears wouldn't come out. How could he be so unlucky? It looked like he had no choice but to suck it up.

He knew very well that Kevin wasn't just any ordinary man. He needed to be strong or else he could lose an entire year's worth of salary.

"Do you think it's too little? If it's too little, I'll double it."

Kevin snorted coldly. Not only did his secretary give him lame advice but now he was bargaining with him? Maybe he really should fire him.

"No, no. That's enough,"

his secretary hurriedly said, worried that Kevin would take away the rest of his bonuses too.

"What's your next plan?"

Kevin was peeved that Anne rejected him despite his grand gesture. He needed to figure out a way to win her back as soon as possible.

"Mr. Kevin, why don't you invite her to a romantic movie? After all, women are driven by their emotions. If you two watch a romantic movie together, she might be reminded of the beautiful memories that you two shared,"

the secretary suggested.

"Are you sure this is going to work? Or am I just going to waste my time again?" Kevin asked skeptically.

"I think so. Mr. Kevin, why don't you try it?"

the secretary responded confidently. Inwardly, he really couldn't be sure. He was just doing his best to make sure he kept the rest of his bonuses.

"Then I'll do that. If this still doesn't work, I'm deducting the rest of your bonuses for the second half of the year."
