Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 146

"No need to thank me. If you really want to thank me, just sit down and finish the meal," Kevin said in an irresistible tone, giving a hint to Anne to sit next to him.

As she looked at the dishes on the table, Anne's belly started rumbling. In fact, she was already ravenous, but she still wanted to pretend she was strong.

"Ha-ha! I can tell you're hungry. Sit down and dig in. Why be difficult?"

He laughed, as much as in triumph as anything. He also felt bad for her, and wanted her to eat her fill.

Anne frowned. She really didn't want him here. She certainly didn't want to share a meal with him. But she was hungry, and wasn't about to starve to death for this guy!

"Don't you want to see your baby? Probably a good idea to eat, then. You don't want to starve before you see him."

'Damn it! Does she have to be defiant to the end? I've been so humble, but she's still defying me.'

As she heard the word "baby," a glimmer of hope flashed through Anne's beautiful eyes. Then she gave Kevin a cold look and sat across from him.

Kevin smiled to see her do that. So at least some of his soft persuasion was working.

When Anne had eaten her fill, she looked up at Kevin.

"Kevin, when can I see my kid? Or were you just bullshitting me?" she asked icily.

"Are you so eager to see him?" There was no change in Kevin's mood. His expression was still indifferent, but a complicated light could be seen in his eyes.

"Of course. But you knew that, didn't you? The only thing I want now is to see my son. Let me see him, and I'll do anything you want."

He didn't shut her down like he usually did. A spark of hope still burned in Anne's heart. She looked at him anxiously.

"Anything I want. What a wonderful philosophy. And if I asked you to be my woman? You could see your kid as much as you want."

Kevin locked her with a burning gaze, looking forward to her answer.

Kevin's terms made Anne frown. She was hesitant. She really didn't want to go back to him.

But it seemed to be the only way he'd let her see her child. Maybe she should compromise so she could get what she wanted?

"I—" Just as she opened her mouth to agree to his terms, he interrupted her,

"I'll give you time to think about it. You can see him tomorrow."

Kevin couldn't bear to see her disappointed. So he decided to honor her request.

Anne looked at Kevin in surprise. She became excited, animated even.

"This isn't another trick, is it? You'll let me see him? Tomorrow?" Anne couldn't control herself, and she wore her heart on her sleeve.

"I'll let you see him, on one condition."

Seeing her all fired up, Kevin didn't regret his decision. But since she was so happy, how could he not take advantage of it?

"I knew there had to be a catch. There always is. What is it?"

When she heard Kevin's words, her face fell. She knew it couldn't be that easy.

But Anne had made up her mind. As long as she could see her child, she would agree to whatever the man asked.

"Kiss me. That's it. Kiss me, and I'll let you see the baby. What do you think? You won't lose anything."

Kevin raised his dashing eyebrows and smiled evilly. When his eyes traveled to her pink lips, a hint of expectation hit his heart.

"What?"

Anne opened her eyes wide in shock. She didn't think she was hearing things. This man actually asked her to kiss him.

"What part of 'kiss me' didn't you get? I want a kiss!" Seeing her surprised look, Kevin frowned in dissatisfaction and reiterated what he said.

"Your condition is that I kiss you?"

Anne still couldn't believe her ears. This man made a simple request. As long as she kissed him, he would let her see her child?

"Not happy with that? I can pile more conditions on top of that, if you like."

'What was she thinking? That it was too easy? It was a simple enough request, wasn't it?'

Thinking of this, Kevin couldn't help smiling. When he thought of what would happen next, he couldn't help but smile in anticipation. She had always been cold. He really couldn't wait for her to kiss him. He wouldn't have to start it this time.

"No, we're good. There's no need to add more!"

Seeing that Kevin was going to add more conditions, Anne panicked and refused in a hurry. How far would it go? Would he demand to sleep with her?
