Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 391

With worried eyes, Kevin stared at Anne. "Kim is a cunning bastard! He remains in hiding, and the police can't catch him. Even if I want to punish him, it's difficult! Additionally, Anne, the medicine he used on you hasn't faded yet. Your feelings are still a mess. I don't want to bother you. Please leave this to me."

"No way! I'll make him pay for all the things he did to me!" Anne said in a firm tone. She was shaking her head as she stared at Kevin.

Deep inside, she wanted to punish Kim by her own methods, and not through someone else.

A hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes as he understood what she meant. Even though she knew what was going on with her, she couldn't help but reject him.

As such, he could only smile as he withdrew his gaze. In his head, it didn't matter what Anne wanted to do. He would help her nonetheless. At that moment, he vowed to be the best person she could rely on.

"Well, I know my emotions are going haywire right now. However, there are still things that I don't understand. I have no idea how to properly deal with my problems. Kevin, do you have any advice for me?" Since she learned that they were a couple, Anne figured that she shouldn't be so polite.

However, she still lowered her eyes to hide her conflicted expression. It was hard for her to deal with everything with an opposite attitude.

Troubled, Kevin lowered his head and was silent for a while. Then, in a soft voice, he said, "Well, the first thing you should know is that we are a couple. There's no need for you to be so formal towards me."

With a smile, Anne gently nodded.

Indeed, a couple shouldn't act like such. She had to learn how to get along with him as a romantic partner.

"It a little chilly here. Why don't we head downstairs?" Kevin softly asked as he looked at Anne. The cold breeze blew through the night.

With a nod, she slowly followed Kevin. Meanwhile, the three children were still awake. Their big eyes looked at the couple.

Confused, Anne and Kevin looked at one another and squatted down. With a smile, she calmly said, "It's already late. Why aren't you guys asleep yet?"

With a pout, Sally looked at Simon and answered in a cute voice, "My brothers are still awake, so I stayed awake too."

Then, Simon turned to Eddy and said, "Well, Eddy wasn't sleeping, so neither did I."

Immediately, Eddy pursed his lips. While shaking his head, he rubbed his forehead. Since they were getting along for the past few days, Eddy realized that he became the group's scapegoat. Since he was the eldest, he was always the one to blame!

For a moment, he missed the old days.

With a light smile, Kevin complacently looked at Eddy. The latter understood what his father's look meant. As such, he stepped forward and held Anne's hand. "Mom, I have something to confess. Since the day you arrived here, I knew the truth. I knew that you were acting differently. Although I prepared for the worst, I realized that the situation is not that bad."

When she heard that, Anne raised an eyebrow. She once overheard Kevin when he made a phone call here. She knew that Eddy knew the truth all along.

"Grandma said that the more you loved some in the past, the more you hate them now. Since you loved us so much, I thought you might hate us now. However, even though you were so distant towards us when you came back, I could still see from your eyes that you love us," Eddy said in a low voice as he blushed. Then, he wrapped himself in his mother's arms.

Surprised, Anne embraced him tighter. Indeed, she felt disgusted when she first saw her children. However, as they spent more time together, she realized how she truly felt about them.

It was almost impossible to resist the drug's influence since it affected the victim's thoughts unconsciously. However, Anne understood that her instincts could remain intact.

A woman was weak. However, a mother was strong. After becoming a mother, she always loved and doted on her children. As such, even after being injected with the drug, she couldn't hate her children.

A gentle smile pained Anne's face as she playfully caressed Simon's and Sally's faces. Then, she patted Eddy on the back. "Don't worry, my dear. Since I am now aware of the truth, I can counter the effects of the drug. Your father and I will work together through any difficulties. Our family will be together forever. Nothing will separate us."

Then, Kevin lowered his head and looked at the children with tender eyes. A warm sensation from his heart spread throughout his body.

At that moment, Kevin wanted to tightly embrace his family. However, he feared that it would only cause Anne to feel the opposite. As such, he tried to suppress his emotions.

Nonetheless, she appreciated that Anne said such words. It was a great change overall!

"When Sally and I were younger, you were always saying that we were going to reunite with Dad!" Simon smiled as he looked at his mother. "I felt really worried when you changed. However, it's relieving to see you now."

Anne was surprised with her child's maturity. "You sound like a grown-up!"

A smile flashed across Simon's lips as he held Sally's hand and walked towards their room. Eddy also released himself from Anne's embrace. He winked at Kevin and also left.

"Well, we seem to have sensible children," Kevin said in a doting smile as he smiled.

Those kids were not only important to Anne, but also to him. He couldn't let anything happen to any of them.

At that moment, Kevin's expression suddenly turned grim. Even though Eddy's health was currently stable, he still feared that the illness might recur!

Moreover, they still hadn't heard any news about a heart donor!
