Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 177

Kevin wanted to hold Anne tightly in his arms so he reached out his hand. He had always dreamed of doing that but when he thought that she would resist, he restrained himself.

He didn't want to hurt her anymore. Instead, he lay down beside him and settled on just staring at her. Seeing her beautiful face, he felt so happy.

He smiled when Anne moved towards him and sought for warmth under the coldness of the room. He really wanted the moment to last forever.

He was about to touch her but his hand was under her body. He didn't dare to move.

After midnight, the hotel was very quiet and the silence made everything audible.

Anne opened her eyes and the first thing she saw was Kevin's face. She blushed at the proximity of his face to hers. Realizing how close he was, she got angry immediately.

"What are you doing here?" She clenched her jaw.

She already made it clear to him but he was still shameless and took advantage of her She ignored the messy hair that covered her eyes and grabbed his collar.

She was unaware that it was loose, and his robe started to come undone, revealing his toned chest.

Both were surprised at the turn of events. A strange sexual tension arose between them.

"See? It was you who crossed the boundaries," he reminded her.

She felt like lightning struck her with the surge of embarrassment.

She frowned when she realized that it was, indeed, her that pushed him. However, she didn't do that intentionally.

"Sorry, it was a mistake," she apologized unwillingly.

"If that's the case, then get up. We're leaving," he commanded.

"Okay!" she exclaimed.

Although Maldives was a beautiful place, it was uncomfortable to be here with a man who she hated before. She found it hard to get used to a 'Kevin' that tried to be considerate.

"Good, France is our next stop." As if he figured out what ran in her mind, he quickly burst her bubble.

"Do I have to go with you? Can I just go back ahead of you?" she asked hesitantly.

Was he planning to travel the world with her?

"No, you cant. We're supposed to go there together," he insisted.

"I see,"

Anne answered awkwardly. She knew that it was impossible to beat him in an argument. At least not in a foreign land. He had a lot of tricks to deal with her if she rejected him.

Kevin used his time efficiently and wasted none of it. On the afternoon of the next day, they arrived in France.

It was autumn and the empress trees bloomed in all their glory. Their leaves helped to block the dazzling sunlight.

Anne inhaled the fresh air as they walked with their suitcases. It was such an elegant place that even if there was no one around, they could still feel its nobleness.

She regretted not changing her clothes when she felt the chilly air against her skin. It was hot in the Maldives so she decided to wear thinner ones. If she had known better, she would have worn a thicker garment.

She rubbed her arm subtly but halted when she felt something cover her. "Here," Kevin said as he put a coat on her.

"So that you won't catch a cold." She looked at Kevin and found he wore a coat too.

It was a casual coat. It was an unusual sight for her because she was used to him wearing a suit and tie. She wondered if it was because he felt very relaxed in Maldives that he changed his style.

The two walked along the street. She looked around and was fascinated by the ancient building in every corner of the street. Paris was the most beautiful city in France so she couldn't help but be in awe.

Kevin stopped on his track and walked inside a simple-looking restaurant.

For a restaurant, it was too quiet that it made her restless. The attendants only smiled at them as if they didn't want to disturb the few people who were eating.

"Are you hungry?" she asked in a low voice, afraid to disturb others.

The man shook his head and went inside.

They headed towards a place where vines where planted. Anne saw a graceful lady who sat near the autumn flowers.

She had long, chestnut hair and brown eyes. She looked beautiful and gentle.
