Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 131

"Does it bother you that I have another woman?"

Staring at Anne with his dark eyes, Kevin waited for her answer. If she would admit that she cared about his relationship with Cherry, it would make everything so much easier.

Right now, there was no other woman he wanted than Anne.

If Anne was being truthful, she would say just how much she cared.

However, no matter how much pain it was causing her, she would not speak it out.

"Whether or not you have another woman around you does not concern me, Mr. Kevin. I'd prefer not to know about your personal relations. If you may, please do not come into my life ever again."

There was a calmness in Anne's eyes as she spoke, which made Kevin feel all the more flustered and angry.

"If it is about anything else, we can talk it through. But about what you said, it's non-negotiable."

His voice boomed as his brows tightly knitted across his forehead. There was no chance he was going to let her escape from him.

Anne was left speechless. With a helpless look on her face, she couldn't figure out how she should make him understand what she was trying to say.

"You only have two choices," he continued. "One, stay here and watch this movie with me. You can leave afterwards. Or two, you give yourself to me right at this instant!"

Recently, the only thing Kevin was keen on doing was threats. Every time he didn't get his way with Anne, he would throw harsh threats at her, thinking that it would work without fail.

'This man is getting really--!'

Never had she seen such a shameless man saying such horrible things to her!

What she wanted to do right now was leave. However, his threat kept ringing in her ears. From the way she knew him, she knew that he kept his promises. If she left, this man might really try to force her into doing something she didn't want to do.

Defeated, she sat quietly beside him. With a content nod, he reached up and put his arm over her shoulders. All the while, Anne kept wishing that the movie would end soon. She remembered how he had watched a movie with Cherry, the two of them sitting beside each other so intimately. The discomfort she was feeling made it incredibly hard for her not to lean away from Kevin.

Meanwhile, Kevin was having a hard time concentrating on the movie playing. From time to time, he would steal glances at Anne.

It was rare for him to see her act so obediently like this. Anne, on the other hand, was trying to divert all her focus on the screen to keep her distracted.

Eventually, it piqued her interest. The movie was about a young man and a young woman who went through a great number of setbacks. After fixing their relationship, the two of them lived happily ever after. Seeing the heroine's heartfelt smile at the end made Anne inexplicably flustered.

She couldn't help but relate to the two main characters, especially when they were going through all their problems. Although it ended on a good note, she still felt that things were not as simple in real life.

As the credits started to roll, Anne was still completely immersed in the plot. How wonderful it would be if the same thing happened between her and Kevin!

"So... Did you like it?"

Seeing how quiet she was, Kevin raised his eyebrows and looked at her with amusement.

It was just a silly, romance movie after all. The way Anne looked so deep in thought made him curious. Was she feeling as if she was the heroine of the movie?

Regaining her composure, Anne took a deep breath and stood up.

"Let's go. You said you would let me leave after watching this with you." Without saying anything more, she stood up and walked out.

With a frown, he clicked his tongue in annoyance as he watched her slender back. When she opened the door, he finally stood up and quickly followed her.

Even though he still wasn't content on how she was acting towards him, it was still much better than before. From the way he saw it, it seemed as if she really had feelings for him.

The movie had helped a lot in breaking the ice between him and Anne, and Kevin was a bit thankful for his secretary for suggesting this to him.

As they sat in the car, Anne just stared out the window and didn't say a word. In her head, she was still thinking about the movie, and about her and Kevin.

"Why are you quiet all of a sudden? Have you gotten dumb or something?" Kevin snorted, as he was not used to her sudden quietness.

'Could this man get any ruder?'

Rolling her eyes at him, Anne threw a sarcastic smile at him.

"No."

"Then why aren't you say anything?" Her denial made Kevin a little dissatisfied. Was this woman deliberately not talking to him?

"Say what? Is there anything to say between us?"

All she wanted to do was be quiet while she thought about things. Couldn't she do that in peace? As Kevin heard this, his hands tightened on the steering wheel.

"Yes! And there is actually a lot to talk about!" 'Damn it! Is she telling me that she still has nothing to say to me?!'

"What do you want me to say, Mr. Kevin? I'm all ears,"

she said in an indifferent tone. This left Kevin speechless. When he didn't say anything, Anne shrugged and looked back out the window.

"Say my name, damn it! I don't want to hear you call me Mr. Kevin anymore. Do you understand?"

'Why is she still calling me that?! It's as if we never had anything special between us!'

It was undeniable that they had done every intimate thing that a couple were supposed to do.
