Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 244

His assistant's heart sank when he heard his boss' words. It turned out that Ian was still hopelessly in love with Anne. How could he be able to let go of the person he loved so easily? In this world, the only person that could make the investment master, Ian, do stupid and unimaginable things was her. Any form of logic was rendered useless if Anne was involved.

"Okay, I'll get ready."

The night was fading away in desolation. The lights in the pathway lit up the night as they drove towards the gate of Luo Family's mansion. The door was open, as if it is waiting for Rose's return.

On her way home, Rose's face was filled with frustration. She didn't expected that God would make fun of her like this. When she liked Kevin, Kevin didn't like her. Now that when she had already made up her mind about setting him free, Kevin suddenly had a slight feeling for her and would not let her go. She was caught in a predicament that she had never thought of.

"Here we are. Get off the car." Kevin's voice was so magnetic that the alluring night became subtle.

If it was in the past, Rose would thought that it was God's blessing for her. But now that she had already outgrown her feelings with Kevin, it ached her head. How would she explain this turn of events to Mark?

She had told Mark that she'd end her one-sided love in his restaurant, but she didn't expect that when she was ready to let everything go, Kevin would suddenly have a change of heart.

If that was the case, would Mark misunderstand her? Would this conflict be able to give off a bad impression of her? She was afraid that Mark would think that she was a person who couldn't keep her words.

Thinking of this, Rose couldn't help but feel annoyed with Kevin a little bit, but it didn't seem to be his fault.

"Get out of the car. Why do you look so preoccupied? Is there anything wrong?" Kevin gently tucked her hair behind her ears.

At this time, Valentina and Liam came out of the mansion. They had been very worried about Rose these days. They feared that things would be too difficult for her to handle. But they were shocked when they saw her with Kevin. After absorbing the situation, Valentina enthusiastically invited them inside, "It's so late. Come in!" she said with a lively tone.

A bit of complacency flashed through Valentina's heart. It seemed that her daughter had already captivated Kevin's heart. She had witnessed what the latter had done to her daughter just now. If he didn't like Rose, how could he be so sweet and considerate to her?

"Kevin, what are you doing here?" Liam's voice, which was filled with animosity, echoed in the mansion.

It was not because of Kevin's past attitude towards Rose that made him bear hatred to the man. He was angry with Kevin because of the fact that he was entangled with his two daughters. Liam didn't know what to do to protect his children.

"Liam, they have just been reconciled. Don't make things difficult from them anymore," Valentina said coldly.

Valentina was the most willing to see the two of them together. On the other hand, she didn't want to lose to Kiana. She really thought that Kevin was someone that she could entrust her daughter to.

"Mom, can you stop talking?" Rose asked in frustration. Her mother was making things difficult for her.

"Okay. I won't say anything. As long as the problem between you two had been solved and there is no deep hatred between you two, I'd be happy. Kevin, you should stay here and rest after a meal."

Noticing that Valentina was too enthusiastic to Kevin, Rose interrupted her mother, "Mom, I think he won't be able to stay. He has something to deal with so he would have to leave soon."

Rose didn't want Kevin to stay any longer than he did. After all, she didn't want Mark to misunderstand her.

"I can put off my work. I'm not busy," Kevin replied.

This completely won the favor of Valentina. She felt certain that Kevin really loved her daughter. Her eyes were filled with happiness.

"But Kevin, you are very busy. You don’t need to stay." Rose spoke impolitely. It was obvious that she was a little anxious about the situation.

She meant to drive Kevin away, not even thinking about the possibility that Kevin was shameless because he wanted to take revenge on her.

"I would clear out my schedule if it meant that I get to be with you." Kevin smiled dotingly, keeping his facade.

"Rose, stop talking like that. Just let Kevin live here, Doesn’t our Luo Family welcomes him anytime? He would always have a place here in our house." A hint of sadness traced from Valentina's tone. She was trying to make her daughter agree with her.

"All right, mom." Rose finally gave in and cast a stern glance at Kevin. She was helpless with her situation.

In the East Mountain Villa

The moonlight was warm and bright. There was a faint fragrance of milk on the huge bed. A baby was resting on the sky blue colored bed sheet. At this moment, Anne was happily playing with the baby.

"Mom, I want…" After half a month's training, Eddy was able to express his thoughts in a simple manner.

For example, if he wanted a toy, he would say 'want' and if he wanted to drink milk, he would say 'milk'. He would also use body language to communicate. He would stretch out his hands if he wanted to hug, which was very lovely and smart of him.

"Eddy, we need to rest now. It was already late. Go to bed now and you will see Daddy tomorrow, okay?" Anne had a very sweet smile on her face when he mentioned Kevin. Eddy gave her a kiss on the cheek.

The night was getting deeper and deeper. Eddy fell asleep on his mother's arms. It was already eleven o'clock in the evening, but Kevin still hadn't come back. Anne felt worried about him, but she told herself not to think about anything else. 'Everything would be fine.' She kept on repeating in her mind.

She couldn't sleep well the whole night. She would always have that indescribable feeling, as if her emotions were slowly fading, when Kevin was not by her side.

"Have you forgotten what happened before, just because Kevin simply expressed his 'love' to you?" Even though Anne scolded herself in dismay and disappointment, she could not help but smile when she thought about Kevin.

After long hours of drowning within her thoughts, she finally fell asleep.

When she woke up, it was already morning. She heard someone talking outside. She got up, put on her shoes and opened the curtains. The sunshine greeted her room with warmth, and the place suddenly looked lively. Anne opened the room's door. When she was about to look for Eddy, she saw Emily sitting outside.

At this time, Emily was talking to the nanny. It was a big living room, and there were only the two of them. Emily was not familiar with the nanny, but she was an extrovert and engaging with other people was natural for her.

"Emily?" Anne smiled as she called Emily's name.
