Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 219

After calming down, Anne replied back, "If there's nothing else to discuss, I'll go now."

Kevin had already been engaged, after all. She didn't want to be the one who would ruin other people's marriages. She gently nibbled onto her lips.

Every time she felt depressed for a long time, she'd lose the ability to feel emotions. She'd think that she would no longer feel depressed for anything that way, but she didn't know that the depression was still there. It was only that she chose to ignore it.

Kevin could clearly see and read Anne's emotions.

Whenever she pretended to be calm and stubborn, it would touch the softest parts of his heart.

"Have you ever thought about starting all over again?" Kevin asked and gazed at her.

It would seem that his eyes were full of affection but it only made Anne want to laugh.

"Start over? Can we really start all over again?" Anne smiled with a hint of helplessness.

"I just got engaged to Rose but I can still go back on my word at any time. As long as you're with me, I'll find a way to cure Eddy. I won't love any other child except the children you have with me," Kevin replied with seriousness while Anne kept on her smile.

"All I wanted was for Eddy to be healthy. Even if you don't need a child, I still need it."

"I can accompany you to have a test tube baby, if you want."

Anne finally changed her expression after hearing this and looked at Kevin in disbelief. "A-are you alright? Do you have a fever?"

She never would have thought that a proud man like Kevin would say something like that so she was very suspicious.

"I don't think I have a fever. I think I'm just crazy," Kevin replied with a smile.

He had been thinking recently if Anne would agree with his proposal or not.

After a close examination, Anne didn’t find any sign of joking or sarcasm from Kevin. "Is it true? Would you really do that?"

Kevin held her cold hands. "You can give it a try. I could even take you to the examination today."

Everything was going way too fast for Anne to process. She reluctantly replied, "I-I need to think about it first, Kevin."

Kevin had sensed her hesitation about the subject and nodded, respecting her decision. "Okay, I'll wait for you but please don't avoid me."

He couldn't accept the feeling of being ignored by Anne.

"Okay." Anne nodded in agreement.

The dusk was already upon them and, in the blink of an eye, had already shifted the light into a haze. Kevin had insisted that he send Anne off. After all, their relationship started getting better and he must seize this opportunity.

Anne lived in the NJ Community, a residential area that wasn't very prosperous but boasted of being safer and quieter than the neighboring communities.

The cold winter and the Christmas cheer was felt by everyone. The streets, buildings, and houses were all prepped up and decorated with lights and displays, signaling the coming holiday. It suddenly dawned upon Anne that Christmas was already just around the corner.

"Well, here we are," Anne said as the two had reached their destination.

Kevin opened the door for her as he looked at her with expectant eyes.

"Well? Aren't you going to let me in to see what your house looks like?" Kevin asked.

Kevin's sudden concern for her made her a little bit stunned, but she was already used to being cold as a way to protect her. "I'm doing fine recently. I just moved in here a few days ago and things are still a mess, so I can't let you in."

It's not because she didn't want to let Kevin in. It was just that she didn't trust him all of a sudden. She was afraid that all the good things she had before would be broken all over again."

"Oh… alright."

Meanwhile, seven o'clock in the evening, in the Ame exclusive shop.

Rose was wearing a thin pair of silk stockings, pink and purple high-heeled shoes, a small dress, and a thin overcoat, even though it was already freezing outside.

She waited anxiously at the door and kept on looking at her watch from time to time. Kevin was already five minutes late yet he still wasn't there. She was getting a bit anxious and she tried to call him multiple times but his phone seemed to be turned off.

Rose curled her lips and kept on waiting.

He had only arrived half past seven.

"Kevin! Where have you been? I've been waiting here for you for a long time now." She immediately wrapped her arms around his.

"Sorry that I was a bit delayed today. I went to see Anne earlier," Kevin replied.

He had hoped that Rose wouldn't take the next step because his engagement with her was just a trade based on the child.

"Why are you still seeing her? I'm your fiancee now," Rose said, a little bit annoyed by Kevin's actions.

"It's just some personal business. Do you mind, Miss Rose?" Kevin asked with a faint smile on his face.

Of course, Rose was concerned. How could she not get angry by the fact that the person she loved didn't love her back properly and even took the initiative to go out of his way just to meet up with someone else?

"Yes, I do mind. But I want to marry you. Whether you agree to it or not, I'll try to be a good wife to you and won't let your mother down."
