Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 54

"Kevin, why did you brake so suddenly? Don't you know it's dangerous?" Still suffering from the shock, Anne returned to consciousness and looked at Kevin with discontent.

With a quick glance at her, Kevin swiftly took off his coat and put it around her body.

When Anne gazed at the handsome face in front of her, her heart thumped wildly. Did he stop the car just to cover her with his clothes?

"Are you feeling warmer?" Kevin's deep and magnetic voice came through with its unique masculine charm.

"Yes..."

Anne awkwardly averted her gaze from his dark eyes. He could always make her heart beat uncontrollably.

His gesture made her frozen heart melt. He must care about her a little, didn't he?

"Why did you put your coat on me?"

Her voice was cautious and her beautiful eyes were concealing unexpressed expectations. She would be satisfied with any answer as long as it showed Kevin's care for her.

"For the baby! It is in your belly, so you can't get sick!" Kevin wanted to say he was afraid that she would catch a cold, but those words got completely altered when they left his mouth.

The color in Anne's eyes vanished in an instant. She turned to look out of the window and smiled bitterly.

She should have known that his actions were solely motivated by the baby's well-being. However, she couldn't help but feel that she had flattered herself. He didn't care about her at all. If she didn't carry his child in her womb, his indifference would be such as to let her freeze to death.

After sensing the change in her mood and seeing her eyes turn cold, Kevin became a little irritable. He wondered why he had begun to care about this woman recently.

They didn't share a word all the way back to the villa.

Anne opened the door and got out of the car. She frowned as her sprained foot caused her a sharp pain.

Kevin strode forward, but seeing the struggle and sweat on her pale face made him feel sorry for her.

He turned back, lifted Anne up and headed toward the living room.

With shock spreading on her features, Anne wrapped her arms around his neck tightly. Even though she knew that all he was doing was for the baby's sake, her heart couldn't help but beat for him.

Waiting anxiously in the living room, Cherry rushed over when she saw Kevin arrive.

"Kevin, you're finally back! I was so worried about you..." She walked up to him with apprehension glimmering in her beautiful eyes.

But as soon as she saw Anne in his arms, anger and jealousy took over.

What was more, she was wearing Kevin's coat.

At that sight, Cherry's hate for Anne reached its peak. She hated the kidnappers too for not killing her directly.

But she knew how to hide her true emotions in front of Kevin.

"Anne, are you okay? I was really scared when I heard what happened."

Cherry's eyes were filled with anxiety and worry. If Anne hadn't seen Cherry's true colors, she would have thought that she was really worried about her.

"I'm fine. Thank you for your concern." Her expression was indifferent and her words emotionless.

"That's good. That's good. You must have freaked out today. Let me help you back to your room."

Annoyed by seeing Anne leaning on Kevin, Cherry extended her hand to help her get down.

"Ouch, it hurts!" As soon as her feet touched the ground, Anne cried out in pain.

"What's wrong? Does it still hurt?" Kevin held Anne's arm delicately. There was an imperceptible tone of concern in his voice.

He couldn't help but feel a little guilty at the thought of her pain.

"Hmm. It seems to hurt more than before!"

Looking at Anne's pained expression, Kevin felt a sting in his heart. He scurried to hold her up again.

"I'll send you back to your room first, and then ask Sam to check on you later."

As if he had forgotten Cherry's existence altogether, Kevin headed upstairs with Anne in his arms.

As they walked past Cherry, Anne gave her a complacent look.

She always pretended to be innocent, kind and sensible in front of Kevin, but she could be very wicked in private.

Kevin was not worried about her, but Anne wanted to give Cherry a dose of her own medicine even if that meant using the pregnancy to her advantage.

Under Anne's provocative gaze, Cherry felt anger bubbling up inside of her with no way out. All she could do was glare at her fiercely.

'Anne, just wait and see. How dare you play tricks on me? I will make you suffer.'

Despite her rage, Cherry wanted Kevin to see how considerate and concerned she was about Anne's safety, so she swallowed her feelings and followed them upstairs.

"Get some rest,"
