Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 459

"How are you feeling now?" Anne's face was fraught with worry. She looked at Rose with concern from the seat beside her.

Rose turned her head to look at Mark, who said, "She's been doing well these days. If she continues at this rate, she will be well quite soon."

Nodding in acknowledgement of his words, Anne spoke some words of comfort to Rose, "Take good care of yourself during this period. Don't be your usual stubborn self."

Rose felt an overcoming feeling of affection for Anne, realizing that her sister truly cared for her wellbeing. She looked up at her and smiled.

In hindsight, she realized it was all really her fault.

As the saying went, "A mistake admitted is already half fixed by taking responsibility for it." She had realized her faults and worked hard to correct them. She now truly appreciated what she already had now, things that really belonged to her.

"I wanted to call you, but it seems it would have been unnecessary since you're here anyway," said Rose. She then turned to look at Mark whose mouth was slightly upturned at the corners, forming a smile. She then addressed Anne, "Mark had sent someone to pick up the child. She should arrive here soon."

"Child?" Anne repeated.

Anne's heart skipped a beat and the picture of three adorable children flashed before her mind's eye. She unconsciously clenched her fists at her sides.

Yet now, her three wonderful babies were not by her side.

All of a sudden, Anne found her hand in Kevin's gentle grasp. He looked deep into her eyes, with a smile playing at the corners of his lips, and he closed his eyes for a moment, as if trying to assure her of something.

Anne knew that Kevin was letting her know that her children would be with her very soon.

Indeed, Kim would be executed soon. They would be safe and could take their children home with them. Finally, they could enjoy some peaceful, long-overdue family time.

'My kids are about to come back to me.' Asserting this in her mind brought happiness to Anne.

"I haven't seen my little niece since she was born. I'm looking forward to spending time with the angel." A smile flashed across Anne's face.

Rose had a keen resemblance to Anne. Mark was quite strikingly handsome in his own right. Their child would undoubtedly be a sight for sore eyes.

Rose nodded. Perhaps, a near-death experience really did make people change.

The little girl was Anne and Mark's child so Rose never really took much interest in her. She didn't even hold or play with her much. After seeing how caring Mark had been, attending to her every need day and night, she missed the child quite a bit.

Now Rose felt deep guilt sitting in the pit of her stomach.

If she had treated the little girl better and corrected her behavior when she had the chance, perhaps she would not be feeling this way.

Rose looked up at Mark, frown lines clearly showing her anxiety. She bit her lip and said, "Mark, be honest, do you blame me?" Are you still willing to be with me?"

Mark raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that Rose would ask such a question in front of Anne and Kevin. His heart rate picked up as he quickly became flustered.

Rose's heart had always belonged to Kevin. Although she had not mentioned Kevin recently, Mark knew it was true but realized she would always keep this a secret in order not to break his heart.

But now, seeing the way Rose was looking at him, he thought that maybe he was wrong.

Rose's change in attitude had made Mark quite happy.

Now that she asked such a question in front of Anne and Kevin, he had been wholly taken aback.

"Silly girl, how could I ever blame you?" This endearing response embodied his thoughts.

Rose's heart skipped a beat and her face flushed. She bit her bottom lip once again, and asked with hesitation, "Will Dora hate me?"

Mark shook his head, "Dora is a good girl. She will understand you and will never hate you. Besides, have you forgotten that she has changed her name? She's 'Paula' now!"

Due to the anorexia which Rose was recovering from, her memory was also affected and it still quite bad. Now that Mark had reminded her, she smacked herself on the forehead, nodded and replied with a smile, "You are so right! Our child is no longer called Dora, but Paula now!"

Kevin and Anne looked at each other in confusion. They were completely unaware of what Rose meant.

Rose turned to them and explained, "Her name was Dora previously. Now both Mark and I thought this name was not good. Our child should have a better name, so we renamed her Paula Mo!"

'Paula Mo!'

Raising her eyebrows, Anne was thinking of what the name could have meant. She observed Mark. His head was lowered and she was looking at Rose with devotion and love. The look in his eyes was clear.

"It's a good name. It's really a beautiful name," Anne praised sincerely.

This name represented the couple's hope and love.

Even the name of the little girl showed that Mark really cared for Rose. Even though Anne had been Kim's hostage for two years and had anticipated that she would have missed a lot, she was still taken aback by just how much he had changed. The current situation, however, made for a fairy-tale ending.

'Everyone deserves to find their own happiness!' she thought.

While they were talking, Paula Mo came over and joined them. She was around the same age as Sally and Simon. She had adorable full cheeks, making her face look round. She smiled all the time, giving her such a constantly beautiful and jovial look.

"Paula, come here." Hearing her mother call her by her new name, Paula Mo smiled and climbed onto the bed with a little assistance from Mark.

In the past, Rose would look at this child in disgust when she saw her. But now, when she looked at her, she could only feel a deep feeling of affection for her.

This was her and Mark's own baby!
