Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 261

Valentina's attitude softened, and she said lightly. "Okay, take care,"

Seeing her parent's attitude, Rose was even more assured. She believed that all it would take to achieve her goals was hard work and dedication.

For the one she loved, she wouldn't back down. Moreover, she was sure that Mark had a crush on her too.

In the East Mountain Villa.

It was ten o'clock in the morning and it was unexpectedly a cloudy day today. Perhaps it was because Anne was pregnant, she was not in a good mood.

"Miss, here is your watermelon." The servant brought a plate of peeled watermelon.

However, a pregnant woman was prone to mood swings and rapid change in the palate. So, after just two days, Anne was fed up with watermelon.

"I don't want to eat," Anne said, irritated for no reason.

"But Mr. Kevin said that this is your favorite?" the servant said in a questioning tone as she was very confused.

"I don't like it now." Anne felt like vomiting when she saw the watermelon.

"Oh, I see. Don't worry. It's normal for pregnant women to experience a change in the palate. It's just a pity that a truck filled with watermelon had just arrived from D city," the servant said with regret.

However, when she saw that Anne was not happy, she changed her tone and said, "But it doesn't matter. Mr. Kevin will take care of it."

As she was done speaking, she looked out.

After a mere ten minutes later, Kevin unexpectedly came back. Seeing him back so soon, even Anne was surprised.

"Why are you back?" Anne asked.

Instead of answering, Kevin took off his coat and said, "Forget all that. Time to take a pregnancy examination. Let's go."

Kevin rushed back from the company for a very important reason—he wanted to accompany Anne through every step of the pregnancy. He didn't want her to feel all alone. He wanted to make sure that she understood how important she was to him.

"I can go by myself; you don't have to worry. There must be a lot of things at the company that require your attention. You should go and take care of them," Anne said.

Anne was still in the early stages of pregnancy, so she could walk around easily and didn't require any sort of support. But Kevin was a little too nervous and worried.

"Don't think about all that. I have already handed the company affairs to Sam. I'm sure that he would be able to handle them." Kevin gave her a loving smile, and his face was filled with care.

At the same time, in Kevin's office.

The mountainous pile-up of work-related documents made Sam feel like an ant. Just the sheer volume made him dizzy and want to puke. Never did he expect that Kevin was so lazy that he didn't even finish half of his workload. How was he supposed to deal with all this?

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Sam opened the door using the remote control. An employee came in with a plate of watermelon.

Seeing that it was Kevin's assistant, Sam said helplessly, "What's the matter?"

These days, Daniel was the one who sent him the documents.

"Mr. Kevin said that you have worked hard these days, so he asked me to give you watermelon as a reward," Daniel said calmly.

Even Daniel couldn't help but feel shocked when he saw the enormous pile of documents. It almost looked like something out of a comic panel.

"Take it back. Don't take me for a fool. I know that Kevin bought a truckload of watermelon for Anne. He didn't buy it specifically for me. So, take it back!" It wasn't very often that one saw Sam angry.

Daniel put the plate on the table and said, "Mr. Sam, you should take a rest first. Mr. Kevin would feel sad if you get overworked."

After saying that, Daniel walked out of the office, leaving behind a depressed and surely overworked Sam.

"Like hell that bastard would feel sad." Sam was in an emotional state beyond angry. He had already made up his mind: if Kevin didn't return in a week, he would drag him back from the East Mountain Villa.

In the East Mountain Villa.

At times it would be cloudy, and then at other, the sun would shine at its brightest. Sometimes the clouds would hide the sun behind, and at other, the sun would hide the clouds. Sitting beside the French window, Anne felt sleepy again. She was frustrated as she had just woken up like two hours ago.

"Anne, don't sleep now. We are going for a pregnancy examination," Kevin whispered in Anne's ear.

However, Anne frowned and said, "No."

She said it casually, but Kevin thought it was an important matter. For him, everything that concerned Anne was of utter importance.

"Why?" Although he would respond to Anne's wishes almost like a genie, this wasn't something that he could agree.

"No, I just won't," Anne said in a cold refusal.

Then, there was a moment of silence as Kevin no longer tried to persuade her. Just when she thought that Kevin had given up and was about to get to sleep, Kevin lifted her in a princess carry.

"Since you are so sleepy, just sleep in my arms." Kevin's voice was full of tenderness, and Anne couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

"Okay, okay. I'll go. Put me down first." Anne frowned, but Kevin didn't give in.

"It doesn't matter. You are very light." Kevin planted a warm kiss on her cheeks and smiled at her.

However, Anne rolled her eyes and said, "Put me down, or I'll jump down."

Kevin smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. For the sake of the child, you will take care of yourself, won't you?"

After Anne heard his reasoning, her face went dark. Yes, Kevin was right. She didn't dare act rashly, lest that harm her baby. As one would expect from this hateful person, he was the master of shenanigans. One could only feel helpless when one encountered him.

Giving up, she leaned in his chest. Smiling at his victory, Kevin walked steadily towards the car.
