Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 168

"Okay." The servant sensed that Kevin was in a sulking mood, so she left and didn't try to bother him anymore.

Kevin leaned against his seat and kneaded his temples, but there were still a lot of things discouraging him.

A few hours later, there was a heavy knock on the door. The sharp thumping noise made him frown.

"Didn't I tell you not to disturb me?" His deep and resonant voice was fused by his heightened anger until he heard the voice outside.

"Kevin, it's time for the meal. Will you come join us?" Hearing the aloof voice of Anne, Kevin immediately calmed down and cheered up.

He sat up straight as if he was shot at the back by an arrow and replied, "I'll be out in a minute."

Anne didn't say anything more upon hearing his response and left instantly.

A faint gleam suddenly brightened the corners of Kevin's lips, but at the same time, he also felt depressed. The more Anne became unwelcoming, the more eager he wanted to knock on her heart, to be close to her. If Anne was a little nicer to him, his mood would definitely light up the house.

When he arrived at the dining room, Anne had already sat down. Cutleries were already set in place in front of her, and the baby in the stroller beside her was placed in between her and Kevin's seat. The baby reached out his hand to grab the little ball in front of him, but he couldn't get a hold of it.

Kevin was ecstatic to have a meal with Anne, but since the baby was there, he just ate without saying a word.

However, when he thought of what Anne had just said, he suddenly felt that he was absentminded at times. This woman went too far when she said that she wouldn't mind where he went, even if he went out to be with Cherry.

"I'm full." Kevin abruptly succumbed to his heated thoughts. He put down his bowl and left without saying another word.

"It was so awkward." Even Anne who was used to Kevin's bizarre temper, couldn't help but say that. She then continued to eat and said to the baby,

"I guess it's you and me, Baby. Let's enjoy the meal together." Without Kevin by her side, she felt more relieved.

Inside Cherry's room, clothes were scattered all over the place from dresses to lingerie. The strong and fragrant smell of her perfume was diffused in the room and her cosmetics were left open to dry. It was obvious that Cherry hadn't tidied up yet.

It was the third day since she moved to the new house.

She thought she could make it up to Kevin by being obedient, but he didn't even call her.

She could still browse about the negative news about her on the internet.

"Garret, you are so cruel and merciless." She didn't dare to go out in the open, not with her face circulating the media for the wrong reasons. She even ordered takeout for her meal.

She used to be a lavish lady, so she was not used to the life she was stuck in, but she couldn't just sit and do nothing about it. In a moment of desperation, she dialed Kevin.

"Kevin, why haven't you dealt with Garret yet? He caused harm to the both of us!" Cherry spoke in a high volume.

Kevin answered the call and said passionlessly, "It's none of your business. Don't go out these days, or someone will take pictures of you."

"But how do I cope with this life?" Cherry said with grievance.

"I'm sure you can handle yourself." After saying that, Kevin ended the call, and then Cherry heard the beeping sound of the phone.

A few days ago, Cherry was depressed because of what happened between her and Garret. She didn't even have the time to think about Anne at all.

Now she thought carefully, this was all Anne's fault. She was the reason she ended up like this.

"Anne, you took everything away from me! Everything!" She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. If Anne was there with her, she would have ripped her into pieces like paper.

All the people that stood in her way of her being with Kevin deserved to die an excruciating death.

She grabbed her bed sheet tightly in her trembling hand. Her face was gushing red, and as she turned from sweet to ferocious, she was no longer her old self.

At the board meeting of AN Group of company,

all twenty members sat anxiously with their boss. Kevin sat in the most important seat, with his handsome face painted with a deadpan expression, his eyes full of uncontrollable disdain. The water in front of him was still untouched. Everyone listened attentively when he spoke, and when he was quiet no one dared to move.

"Do it right away according to this plan. We will surely take down Garret," said Kevin calmly.

By this time, everyone finally understood Kevin's intentions. Someone said, "If we hit Garret, will he strike back? Of course. Garret is not a nobody. He has influence in the whole business industry."

Upon hearing these words, all the board members were worried.

Kevin sneered and continued, "So what? I will make him fall completely, so that he won't even have the capability to fight back."

Kevin's impassive and determined tone made everyone present shudder.

When the meeting came into a conclusion, Daniel asked Kevin, "Mr. Kevin, why did you want to strike Garret now when he had already dealt a huge blow to the company."

"He and Cherry conspired a trap for the company. After I exposed it, I found out that he used Cherry as a failsafe to absorb the unwanted attention from the press. I didn't do anything before because he was using Cherry. I don't want to spend more energy dealing with her. So I thought it would be best if I could find a way to hit Garret directly."

After saying that, Kevin left Daniel with a supercilious aura as he walked away.

"Brilliant, but that's too cruel." Daniel shook his head in awe.
