Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 211

In the Luo Family's house.

An exquisite chandelier hung from the ceiling, and under this was a dark leather sofa in retro style. A brewed tea in a clear water pot was sitting on top of the coffee table that was placed in front of the sofa.

"Hello, Mr. Liam," a deep voice said. It was the general manager of the branch who came in. He was standing tall as if he could take on the world and there was a serious look on his face.

Seeing that it was the general manager that he had met that day, Liam was very excited. It bugged him for days but today, the answer to whether or not Anne was his daughter would be revealed.

His jaw was tense and inside, his heart was beating fast. The idea scared him but he knew that he needed to know the truth.

"Well, how is the investigation going?" he asked. Everyone knew of the Ye Clan and their capabilities. They were once under the watch of the public; therefore, he believed that there was no problem finding the answer he wanted to know.

"Earl's sister, Kiana, is Anne's mother. I have not found out about Anne's biological father but it's said that she is an illegitimate daughter. This is all that we've got for now. This is the information about Kiana." The general manager handed the documents to Liam for him to check as well.

Liam sighed but after hearing the result of the general manager's investigation, he couldn't help but confirm that he was indeed Anne's father. He had always felt guilty for leaving, but he didn't expect that Kiana would give birth to a child for him.

He opened the document with trembling hands. On the document, there was a photo of Kiana when she was young. He stared at her gentle smile for a few seconds, remembering how it was back then. It was not like she was in her early twenties, but it was exactly the same as he had imagined.

His eyes were red, and his lips were open, as if he was about to cry. Trying to calm himself down, he caught his breath. His face was filled with excitement and pain, a mixture of everything he felt at the moment.

"Mr. Liam, are you okay?" the general manager asked. He thought that Liam being upset had something to do with the person in the file, but he didn't dare ask. It seemed a bit personal so he chose to keep quiet.

Liam sighed. As if waking up from a trance, he looked at the general manager. "It's okay. You can leave now," he said calmly, trying his best to steady his voice.

After the general manager walked out, Liam pressed the document against his chest. He allowed himself to soften a little bit since he now had the room alone. He felt sad, but he still couldn't say anything.

Over the years, he had always thought of being a responsible man no matter what happened. At least, he shouldn't contact Kiana, which was the best choice for everyone at the time.

But after everything, he didn't expect that he still failed the woman he loved most in his life. He wasn't sure whether or not she had hated him before she died.

"Kiana, I will protect our child from now on. I didn't protect you well enough when you were alive. I won't allow Anne to suffer again in the future." Liam looked at the photo and finally burst into tears, holding in his heart the promise that he hadn't had a chance to keep to Kiana.

In the AN Group.

Kevin lowered his head on the desk. Hanging above his head were more than ten lamps with black crusts, which in fact, were usually not used.

But these lights gave Kevin a more serious look, because easy-going people would not like lights in a cool color. So he kept them. He liked intimidating people.

"Mr. Kevin, someone is looking for you outside," a voice said. Kevin's door was open so he could hear the assistant perfectly, much to his dismay.

"I don't want to see anyone," he answered bluntly. Since he couldn't find Anne, he didn't want to do his daily work, let alone see an uninvited person.

"H-He seems to be Miss Rose's father," the assistant said uneasily. Although he didn't want to disturb Kevin, he felt like it was an important visit.

The marriage was only consented by Selma. As Kevin didn't like it at all, he was not very enthusiastic about his father-in-law.

Kevin sighed. It was not like he had much of a choice. "Tell him to wait for a moment. I'll go out after I finish my work," Kevin said coldly.

Meanwhile, Liam was waiting in AN Group's receiving area. He was supposed to be happy as he had become Kevin's father-in-law. But if anything, he looked worried.

"Hello, Mr. Liam," Kevin greeted politely when he reached Liam in the receiving area. After finishing his work, Kevin came to see him even though it was against his will.

"Hi. I'm here for my daughter," Liam said straightforwardly, without any hesitation at all. It seemed that Liam was about to blame Kevin.

Kevin knew that he had indeed neglected Rose these days, but he didn't seem to have done anything out of line, so he didn't take his words seriously.

"Please go ahead," Kevin said. They were staring into each other's eyes, not wanting to back down from the internal fight they knew they had going on.

"Alas—" Liam sighed.

"I want to ask you where Anne is." His voice sounded anxious and angry at the same time. He still felt a mixture of emotions and he was trying his best not to show it.

"The matter about my ex-wife don't concern you. It has nothing to do with you, but don't worry because I won't neglect your daughter." Initially, Kevin was worried that Anne would be hurt. But after he said that, he thought it was unnecessary. Now, Anne had disappeared. He had searched everywhere in A City, but he couldn't find her. If Liam could hurt her, it could be considered that he was capable.

"How is that so? Of course, it is my business! Anne is my daughter who has been missing for many years!" Liam couldn't help raising his voice as he said this. He had to know where Anne was.

He had heard about what had happened to Anne before. He already felt that Kevin's harm to Anne was simply appalling, and now it was showing.

Suddenly, Kevin's back became stiff. Apparently, he felt somewhat inconceivable.

'It turns out that Anne is Liam's daughter. Then, is Rose her sister?' Kevin thought.

Thinking about it, Kevin felt a headache coming.

"Well, Mr. Liam, this is your family matter. But if she really is your child, why has she been alone for so many years?" he asked. Kevin could accept everyone blaming him for hurting Anne, but he wouldn't accept Liam's pointing fingers. Liam hurt Anne, too. They were just the same.

He watched Anne suffer. It was him who had gone too far back then. But compared to Liam, he had never thought that a man could abandon a pregnant woman and marry another happily.

Liam said angrily, "I don't want to talk about this with you. I want to see Anne. I want to take her back to our Luo Family!" His eyes reflected the pain he must have been feeling. His hands were shaking but he kept them steady.

"Suit yourself. But I don't know where Anne is now. Although, if you can persuade Rose not to marry me, I think that Anne will more likely return to your family!"
