"Anne, what are you talking about? I really care about you. How can you talk to me like that?" Cherry's eyes showed a hint of anger but the dejection in them was felt the most. Well, that was how she had always been. She used to play the role of a victim.
She looked at Anne from top to toe. She felt a little disappointed while seeing Anne standing in front of her safe and sound, wearing her usual self-composed facial expression. How could she possibly survive after being hit like that?
Cherry had taken a huge risk to carry out the plan. Now all her efforts seemed futile, because no matter what she did, nothing had ever worked out in the end.
"Care? I think what you really cared about is whether something had happened to my child, and if your vicious plan had succeeded or not," Anne said derisively.
Cherry's look was filled with hypocrisy. She was the one who was vicious all this time, not Anne. She was an angel with a rotten heart who always pretended to be kind in front of everyone. Anne couldn't help but wonder if Kevin was blind or just a stupid man, because he hadn't seen Cherry's true colors for such a long time.
"Anne, you have to be responsible for what you said. If Kevin knew that you treated me like this, he will definitely stand up for me!" Cherry was speechless for a moment and stared at Anne with anger in her eyes.
Anne was getting bolder as time passed by. Before, as long as Kevin was mentioned, she wouldn't dare to make trouble again. But now, she didn't care for anyone anymore nor fear what they were capable of.
Cherry had always used Kevin to suppress Anne, but not all things were meant to work all the time. It didn't work on Anne now. She was tougher and wiser than Cherry used to know.
"Then go and tell him now. You'd better let him kick me out of here."
Anne was more eager than ever to exasperate Kevin. If she would really be banished by him, she would totally feel happy. Who wouldn't want freedom from Kevin and Cherry whose cruelty couldn't be compared to anything worse in this world?
"Don't even think about leaving here!" Suddenly, a cold voice came in. Kevin strode towards Anne and glared at her.
This damn woman still wanted to leave here. It seemed that she really didn't take his words seriously.
Anne was a bit surprised of Kevin's sudden appearance and she couldn't help but wonder when he had come back.
"Listen Anne, you are my woman. Wherever I ask you to be, you have to be there. Do you understand?"
Kevin's slender fingers raised Anne's chin. He acted like he was in full control of her life and there was no way for her to escape.
Anne was completely worthless in his eyes. He would never treat her like how a delicate woman should be treated. To him, she was nothing but a piece of trash which he could throw anytime he wanted.
"I'm not feeling well recently. I want to stay in Sam's house for a few days. If you don't want something bad to happen to the baby inside me, you'd better not refuse,"
Anne said coldly and turned around.
She didn't want to stay in this villa any longer. It was beyond torment to deal with these inconsiderate people every now and then.
"Sam? Do you think I will give you a chance to see that man again?"
Kevin looked at her ruthlessly, he was burning with anger when she mentioned that name.
'Damn it, it sucks to hear her think of another man. Did she completely forget that I'm her husband?'
"What do you mean by that?" Anne didn't understand what he meant. Looking at how arbitrary of a person he was, she had a bad feeling.
"You are not allowed to see him before the divorce. Do you understand?"
Kevin sneered, with a look of arrogance and disdain on his face. He was totally unreasonable over this matter. He was always imperious towards Anne, making sure that everything about her was under his control.
"Kevin, what right do you have to decide on me? How could you restrict me from seeing someone?"
Anne already had to endure Cherry and Kevin every day. This was a proof of how tough she really was, but this was already too much. The two had already gone too far. She could no longer endure.
"What right? Because I am Kevin Fu!"
Kevin strode upstairs and completely ignored the anger on Anne's face.
Anne glared at his back as he went upstairs. She couldn't accept how arrogant and domineering this man had always been.
She and Kevin were just in a contractual relationship. She was not his prisoner and he never had the right to decide for her.
"Sam is my private doctor, yet you don't want me to see him until we get divorced. Do you really want something bad to happen to the baby inside me?"
She had no choice but threaten Kevin with his baby. She knew that he only cared for the baby all this time. Maybe he would come back to his senses and reconsider her request for their own child.
However, Anne might have underestimated this man. She almost forgot that this man was incomparably ruthless.
He slowly turned around and smiled mockingly. What he said made Anne lose the only hope she had.
"I've arranged another private doctor for you. The doctor will be here tonight. Don't worry about the baby's safety."
