Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 209

The L Group branch was located in the CBD building in A City.

Elegant doors greeted outsiders. Anyone would assume that Liam was a romantic. Perhaps this was because the L Group sought to be sophisticated. While it couldn't compete with the AN Group in terms of financial resources, its market shares still shouldn't be underestimated.

"Mr. Liam, you're here." The general manager of the branch was excited to see Liam.

"Yes, I'm here to look around," Liam replied plainly.

In reality, he didn't pay much attention to the business in this country. More often than not, he only came here to make use of his connections in the branch.

If Valentina hadn't told him otherwise, he would have asked Selma directly. He knew he couldn't ask what he had on mind until he had enough evidence in case there would be a rift between the Fu Family and the Luo Family.

"Then what do you need me to do, Mr. Liam?" the general manager inquired.

"I need you to look into someone. Her name is Anne Luo and she's from the Ye Clan. I need to know everything about her parents and their current situation."

At that moment, he couldn't help but be reminded of Kiana Ye. His chest tightened at the thought of such warm memories ending in tragedy.

He sighed as he entered the branch.

In the MH Villa.

It was noon. The windows were closed but the curtains were drawn—letting the sunshine in.

An empty cup that previously contained coffee sat on the table. It was surrounded by several bags of instant coffee.

Ian was sound asleep, lying on the edge of the bed.

However, in just a few hours, he woke up.

He heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Anne wasn't awake yet.

He glanced at the bags of instant coffee on the table, frowning. He disliked the taste of instant coffee so he had to grind the coffee even if it was time-consuming.

Worried sick about Anne, he was forced to drink such terrible-tasting coffee.

Perhaps, it was the sunshine that was glaring through the window that Anne slowly opened her eyes.

Not an ounce of emotion could be traced in her eyes.

"Are you awake?" Ian's voice was a little hoarse but his tone was gentle and caring.

"How long was I out?"

Anne glanced at the bright scenery outside, almost in disbelief of what she was seeing. Only pain filled her heart.

"One day and one night. Do you believe me?" Ian teased in an attempt to ease the visible tension in Anne's face.

"Okay," Anne responded indifferently.

Fatigue suddenly overcame her. Perhaps, her situation wasn't as bad as she made it out to be. At the thought of Eddy, she pulled herself together.

"You were asleep the entire day. Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?" Ian asked.

He was completely different from Anne's memory of him before she passed out.

"Ian, have we met a long time ago?" she asked without warning.

The look on Ian's face suddenly turned cold before he let out a chuckle. The joy on his face was undeniable. As expected, Anne still remembered him. What more could he ask for? This was the best thing he could have ever hoped for.

"Yes. For a long time, I was so disappointed because of you," Ian said, feigning nonchalance.

Of course, Anne knew what he was talking about.

In her languidness, her mind drifted off. Ian took the opportunity to change the topic. "I'll make noodles for you. I checked the fridge earlier and there are only eggs, tomatoes, and noodles left."

Initially, Anne wanted to refuse but when she glimpsed the sincerity in his eyes, she responded, "All right."

In the YS Bar.

It was still daytime but the lights were dimmed inside.

The light beamed down on the people that they were unable to tell if this was real or not.

The place reeked of alcohol and perfume. Not only did people frequent the place at night but also during the day to enjoy themselves.

Rose stood in a corner quietly, wearing a light purple dress that showed off her bare shoulders, perfectly outlining her beautiful figure.

Her curly hair hovered about her chest. She showed just the right amount of skin. Her charm made her stand out in the YS Bar.

At that moment, Rose was visibly unhappy.

She slowly slipped her wine.

All the wine on the table were quite strong which was something that she hated the most. Oftentimes, some malicious bosses would endlessly fill her glass with wine even without her consent.

That day, she was disgruntled.

Kevin didn't show up. What did this say about her place in Kevin's heart?

"Hey, gorgeous, it's boring to drink alone. Come on, let's drink and have fun together." A man's voice came, dripping with lust.
