Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 79

What did he mean by that? Did he never really plan to let her go?

"Kevin, can you go out? I'm tired, and I want to rest!" She didn't want to talk about it anymore, so she asked Kevin to leave her alone.

"This is my home, and you are my woman. You have no right to drive me away!"

Kevin grunted with displeasure. He felt aggrieved that this woman kept on pushing him away.

The thought of dealing with this absurd and arrogant man made Anne upset. However, he was still hugging her from behind. She couldn't escape from the tightness of his embrace, so she had no choice but to suppress her anger, and let herself calm down.

She closed her eyes and ignored him. No matter what she said, it turned out fruitless because he didn't want to listen to anything she had to say. She did not want to waste her time talking anymore, so it was better for her to stay calm.

The hazy feeling returned to her, and soon she fell asleep.

Every angle emphasized her beauty. Her features were so delicate and pleasing to the eye. As soon as she fell asleep, her tempting lips slightly opened.

Kevin found her attractive. Staring at her while she was sleeping made him feel a strange desire.

There was a trace of tenderness in his eyes. He touched her face gently with his slender fingers, and felt the warmth of her cheeks on his fingertips.

Anne moved a bit when she felt that someone was stroking her face. Her pretty eyebrows wrinkled slightly.

Kevin leaned closer to her, and was about to kiss her tempting lips, but the door suddenly opened.

He was surprised when he turned his face at the door. He saw Cherry's pale face. Her once alluring eyes were now filled with pain.

He immediately came back to his senses and bolted out of the bed. He lifted the quilt and straightened his clothes.

"Cherry, what are you doing here?" His tone was indifferent. He was trying to avoid explaining what she had witnessed.

Seeing Kevin's indifferent expression made Cherry feel even worse. Soon, tears welled up in her eyes.

"I didn't see you in your room just now. The servant told me that you were in Anne's room, so I came to take a look."

She started to feel uneasy by the time the servant told her that Kevin had been in Anne's room for a long time. It seemed like the thing she was most afraid of happening had already happened.

"Yes, she caught a cold." It was a tepid sentence again, with no intention to explain at all.

"Kevin, did you just…"

After a moment of silence, Cherry finally voiced out what was on her mind. Anxiety overcame her face. She was afraid that Kevin was beginning to fall for Anne.

Kevin frowned in displeasure. In his mind, if Cherry didn't come in, he could have kissed Anne already. She ruined the moment he was supposed to have.

"You already saw what happened just now." Kevin wore his cold expression. He was not in the mood to explain himself to Cherry.

Her heart was already pierced, but his words stabbed it again. His words felt sharper than a knife. Cherry felt even worse.

"Kevin, are you tempted by Anne… Are you…" Cherry was afraid of hearing Kevin's answer. She didn't want to hear an answer that would shatter her heart.

Kevin was surprised by her question. He had not even thought about it himself.

He just knew that he cared more and more about this woman through every passing day. As time passed by, he found himself desiring greater than what he had with her.

It seemed that he was really falling for her...

The thought startled him. How could he fall in love with the woman he used to hate all his life? Why did it have to be Anne, a vicious and scheming woman?

"Cherry, you're overthinking again. How could I fall in love with her? You know that men just need to release their desires every now and then."

Kevin seemed to have forgotten that Anne was there. He was not aware that his explanation to Cherry would also hurt Anne. A tear silently streaked across the corner of her eyes.

"Really?"

Cherry couldn't believe Kevin's explanation. In her mind, he had already fallen in love with Anne.

Tears were about to roll down her face and her eyes looked pitiful. Kevin felt guilty when he saw her face.

"Of course what I said is true. Don't you believe me?" He strode to Cherry and held her in his arms. He gently stroked her hair and calmed her down.

Although she still didn't believe him, Cherry didn't dare to mention Anne in front of him. She was afraid that if she kept on doubting him, he would really tell her the truth and he would start to hate her.
