Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 451

Everybody here knew it was much better if the group continued to be run by Kevin. They couldn't imagine what would happen if it fell in Kim's hands.

"If there is no objection, I am going to leave. I have an important business to deal with," Kevin said curtly, not wanting to stay here any longer. Having received no objection from them, he strode out.

The shareholders looked at each other, each letting out a helpless sigh. They were too ashamed for what they had done to Kevin.

On the way, Kevin came face to face with Kim. The latter had a smile on his face. He didn't utter a word. He let his smile speak for himself.

In Kim's eyes, Kevin was just a man whose days were numbered. Such a person didn't deserve his attention.

"Well, looks like someone is very certain about my death," Kevin said coldly as he passed by his rival.

His words had caught Kim off-guard. He understood his plans had been known. There was only one other person who knew about it. It was Peter!

'I didn't expect Peter would snitch on me, ' he thought and shook his head angrily.

Kevin turned to him and said, "If you stop what you are doing and promise to leave A City, you can consider yourself safe. However, if you insist on doing what you planned on doing then only one among us is going to be hurt. And that person will be you, not me."

"In that case, I'll wait and see!" Kim retorted back, a disdainful smile making its way to his face. He gazed at Kevin cynically, not truly believing the threats that had been thrown at him.

After all, he controlled the underworld and managed countless powerful people, all of whom were willing to risk their lives for money. As for Kevin, he was rich and powerful. But he lacked the connection that would enable him to fight back.

Kim paid no heed to his words. Kevin lowered his head and continued to walk, quickening his pace.

After Kevin returned to the Fu Family's house, Anne went rushing to him. Relief washed through her. Her husband was safe and sound.

"Kevin, I suggest you hire more bodyguards," she said, looking at him with concern. "It's not that I don't believe you, but I want to make sure you are fine."

With a smile at the corners of his mouth, Kevin pulled her towards him. In a low voice, he said, "Anne, stop worrying about me. I will be fine. The only person who has to worry about his safety is Kim!"

"What! Will you be taking action so soon? Have you gathered evidence against him?" Anne broke free from Kevin's embrace and stared straight into his eyes. "Answer me, please. If yes, then it's happening too fast. How can you be so confident?"

As his wife, she wasn't convinced. She knew Kevin was the kind of man who planned well. But she had no idea he would be taking action so soon.

He nodded and said with a smile, "I never do things without preparation. You have got to stop worrying."

Defeated, she nodded her head, but deep in her heart she was still worried.

However, Kevin was very calm, as if everything was under his control. Seeing his confidence, she could only pray things would go according to his plans.

After dinner, she sat on the sofa like a kitten, lazily nestling in Kevin's arms. He lowered his head while he looked through the financial report of the company.

Just when she was beginning to relax, he whispered in her ears, "It's almost time."

Hearing Kevin's words, Anne was confused for a moment. But soon she understood what he was referring to. A frown crept through her face. Before she could say something, his long hands smoothened the lines on her forehead. In a soothing voice, he said, "Anne, I can't have you worry so much about me. You know I am not the impulsive sort of guy. I think twice before I do something. I am extremely careful and Kim doesn't stand a chance against me. He is going down."

His words had soothed her. She nodded her head and hugged him tightly. Yes, she believed in her man. Once he succeeded, they could get rid of Kim. If Kevin failed, then they would go down together. No matter what, she would be with him. Hence there was no reason to be worried.

On the other side, Kim was having a meeting with his subordinates and discussing how to kill Kevin without getting caught. While they were immersed in this, there was a sudden knock on the door.

The crowd anxiously gazed at each other. Kim frowned slightly but soon gathered his wits. He asked the group to remain calm and went towards the door.

In the monitor, he saw it was the police.

It was a late night. 'What could be the matter?' he wondered.

He couldn't think of a plausible explanation but opened the door anyway. The police outside looked at Kim and saluted him. Without any delay, they cut to the chase.

"Mr. Cory, you are suspected of kidnapping, killing, and threatening. Please follow us to the police station and assist in the investigation."

Kim raised his eyebrows and looked at the police in surprise.

Yes, he had done everything the police had stated. However, he was careful enough and hadn't left behind any trace. 'Then how did they find out?' he wondered, worry building inside him.

Seeing the police, all the people in the room instinctively went for their guns. They frowned and looked at Kim, waiting for his order.

Kim smiled innocently, but when he spoke, his voice was cold and murderous.

"Sir, I think you must have made a terrible mistake. I'm a dutiful businessman. How could I do such things? Perhaps it is Kim who had done the things you have stated," Kim lied and pretended to look grieved.

"We don't know the details yet. We are simply following the orders," the policeman said, looking a little helpless.
