Renewal Of Love novel Chapter 235

Inside the house of the Fu Family, excitement filled the air.

While everyone was gathered around, a piece of white paper sat meekly on the table. It contained the result of Rose's physical examination that would determine the happiness of the two families—especially Selma, who was delightfully immersed in the joy of becoming a grandmother.

Her elation showed as plain as day in the way she took good care of Rose.

"You must be tired, Rose. Why don't you go and have a good rest first? If you need to do something, make sure to ask the servants to do it instead. Just take it easy and don't move around a lot." Selma wore a bright, incessant smile as she gave Rose some reminders. It seemed that she had been treating Rose better as her belly grew bigger and bigger.

"Yes, mom. By the way, have you heard any news recently?" Rose casually asked while she ate the steaming hot porridge.

"Oh, I know just what you're talking about. Humph! Kevin was really out of line this time. Anyway, there's no reason for you to worry. I won't recognize her. No matter how good Anne is, there's no room for her in the Fu Family. Besides, I don't like people who don't have a good reputation out there."

Selma then smiled, went to Rose and fixed the hair behind her ears, and continued in a hushed tone, "That's why it's you who I like for my son."

Hearing this, Rose lowered her eyes and fell silent. She remembered that back then, her father was first engaged to Anne's mother. However, due to some circumstances, her father's family didn't approve of the wedding to happen. In some way. Anne could still be considered her father's legitimate child, so Rose still couldn't help but worry.

"It's alright, mom. You don't need to be angry. Even if Kevin likes Anne, he wouldn't dare to leave us. I don't think he'd be stupid to make his family shun him just for a woman who's not even the right match for him.

Besides, you are his mother, and we all know how much he loves you," Rose said softly as she stared into her eyes. Hearing these kind words, Selma felt like his heart melted. At the same time, she tightly held Rose's hand and nodded with a faint smile.

"You're such a good girl. Come on, you need to rest now. Your grandfather is not in good shape these past few days, so I'll need to check on him and see if he needs anything."

Selma stood up and eventually went out of the room, leaving Rose alone.

As soon as Selma's figure receded, Rose's face darkened. It turned out that she was holding her emotions the moment Selma mentioned Kevin's grandfather. Deep within her heart, Rose knew that Carl didn't like her very much. Compared to her, it seemed like he was totally captivated by Anne.

Thinking of this, she clenched her fist as she became more irritable. As though trying a way to vent out her anger, she browsed the internet to confirm the news that was going around.

Just recently, the negative news about Anne had already spread all over the world. After all, she was entangled in a complicated relationship between two business tycoons, and it was just natural that many eyes paid attention to this kind of story.

Due to all this fuss, Rose presumed that Anne mustn't have enough time to concern herself with Kevin.

"Well, don't blame me, Anne. This is all your fault. You are already engaged, so you don't have any right to get between Kevin and me. You should know your place." After calming down a bit, Rose tried to close her eyes as she seemed to have gotten tired from all her activities throughout the day.

Meanwhile, in the East Mountain Villa, Anne came home rather early.

It was already starting to dim outside, and the sun was about to disappear from the horizon.

As she entered her room, she noticed that Eddy wasn't there. Although she felt very disappointed, she had no other choice but to get used to it.

"Why don't you skip work for tomorrow and stay at home? I know you're working nonstop when you're in your office." Kevin's gloomy voice suddenly blew from the corner of the room. Anne actually felt a bit startled when she saw him inconspicuously sitting in the living room.

He was wearing black casual clothes that matched the sofa, and he didn't utter a word when Anne came in, so there was no way that she would quickly notice him.

"Why do I need to do that? I'll do whatever I want. I know I promised you not to contact anyone else, but I should at least live my own life, shouldn't I? Plus, it's just my job. Why should it matter to you?" Anne asked with a straight face.

At this moment, Kevin got up and stared directly at Anne with his piercing gaze.

"I said… I wouldn't allow it," Kevin retorted in a low, cold voice.

He didn't want Anne to freely do anything she wanted for the reason that she didn't consider him a part of her life.

"Is that why you've taken my right to see Eddy?" Anne asked in a melancholic tone, with her brows starting to slightly furrow.

"I'm doing this for you. Nothing comes out right when you're always near Mark," Kevin replied flatly.

Hearing this, Anne heaved a sigh, raised her head, and said in a resigned manner, "Fine. You win. You always get what you want in the end anyway. I swear I won't go to work tomorrow, but in return, you also have to promise me that I may go in and out of the villa whenever I want. I'm not your prisoner…"

All she wanted was a bit of a compromise. If she couldn't even get out of the East Mountain Villa, what was the difference between her and a caged bird?

"All right, I will allow you to do that. Just remember to keep your promise. And also, I have one condition." Kevin slightly raised his chin as if a declaration that he was still the winner of this deal.

"What is it? Say it," Anne said impatiently.

"You can go out whenever you wish, but when you do, make sure he's never out of my sight."

Anne's lips pursed slightly as she took a deep breath. After a moment, she looked at him and said, "Okay. I promise."

Right when she expressed her agreement, Anne went back to her room as fast as she could, unable to bear a single second of seeing Kevin's face.

As the evening deepened into the dead of night, innocent laughter suddenly chimed from the baby's room.

In the middle of the room was Eddy's bed, where he sat while playing with his hands. He was handsomely dressed in a beige onesie. Across him was Kevin, who was restfully sitting on the sky blue carpet. Eddy then stared lovingly at him with his twinkling eyes for a while until a smile lit up his adorable face.

When he saw that Kevin was smiling back at him, he stretched out his tiny hands towards his dad and started reaching for his face.

"Be careful, Eddy. Don't move." Kevin couldn't help but remind him when he saw Eddy crawling on the bed.

Although Eddy stopped moving, he gave Kevin a curious look and curled his lips. What he did next took Kevin by surprise.

Slowly, Eddy stood up. His legs were a little wobbly, but he managed to stand up just fine.
