Renewal Of Love novel Chapter 247

It was already dusk when Rose returned. The rays of sunlight that were dispersed by streams of clouds slowly disappeared as time ticked by.

She emerged out of her car and took tiny steps towards the house. It exhausted her being just by the thought that she had to deal with a lot of jewelry and paraphernalia for the wedding ceremony.

Not long after, Kevin's car's engine resonated within the vicinity and halted by her side.

"Why are you walking slowly like that? You look unwell. Are you tired? Hurry up and come in," he said as he rolled down his window.

"No, let's not go inside yet!" she protested.

Kevin kept his hand on the steering wheel as his handsome face turned to her.

"What's wrong?" he asked gently. Even though he acted kind towards her, there was something in him that made her worried.

"I want you to assure me that you no longer love Anne." Rose had always wished for this thing. However, that was before her life made an unexpected turn.

"Why are you saying such things out of nowhere?" For a moment, coldness flashed in his eyes, but he was fast to conceal it.

"Please, don't do this anymore. If you marry me, Anne and Eddy will suffer. Nothing good will come out of this," she said. The only thing that she wished right now was for him to love his former lover once again.

"You don't have to worry about that. Even though Anne is Eddy’s mother, you’d still treat him good, right?" Kevin asked.

"Of course! Eddy is just a kid and he's innocent. He's fun to be around with." As the image of the child appeared in her mind, she couldn't help but grin.

Kevin returned her smile gently. "Then what are you so worried about? Go back inside and don't make mom wait for too long."

Left with no choice, Rose entered the house with him. All the while, her mind was filled with Mark's reaction and Kevin's change of behavior.

Guilt gnawed her heart. She had planned to let Anne and Kevin be together. Now that this thing happened, she could only imagine the disappointment on her face once she told her everything.

At the thought, she decided to at least give her a heads-up so that she wouldn't be that surprised anymore.

Without further ado, she dialed her number. She decided to explain everything to her tomorrow when Kevin accompanied her to the bridal shop. Instead of lying, she would rather tell her the truth.

They went to a luxurious store named KY.

It was one of the top stores in the country that specialized in customized wedding dresses.

With just a glance, one would know that their products were made by highly recognized designers. Everything looked exquisite and elegant.

Kevin led Rose inside as the manager greeted them warmly.

"Good day, Mr. Kevin. We already prepared everything you asked for. Please take a look."

When the attendant stared at the woman beside him, she couldn't help but crease her forehead. "I don't think we got the right size for the dress, Mr. Kevin. The dress should be a bit thinner."

"How come? I didn't gain weight recently." Rose butted in with bewilderment.

Meanwhile, Kevin kept a stoic look. "Why don't we have a look at it first," he suggested.

Not long after, the manager brought an extravagant dress that was imported from France. The diamonds on it would shine brightly whenever the light hit its surface. The gown looked so striking that people would take their time to gape on it.

"Miss, would you like to try it on?" the attendant asked.

It was obvious that it wouldn't fit her. Even though she didn't want to offend the lady considering how intricately-made the dress was, she had to tell her the truth.

"I'm sorry but I don't think that would fit me. Please take it back and change it according to my size," Rose refused politely.

She stopped on her track when she felt her phone vibrate. "Excuse me, I have to take this call."

After she left the premises, the manager and Kevin exchanged glances with each other. The wedding ceremony was coming near. There was only half a month left and it would be very hard to change the gown's size now.

"You don't have to change anything. Just put it back and I'll pick that up myself."

He went out of the store and his jaw almost dropped on the floor when he caught sight of the person beside Rose. What was Anne doing here?

She didn't have to be a genius to know why Rose asked her to come to the KY.

As she walked towards their meeting place, she saw a familiar figure. Rose called to tell her that Kevin might not like her anymore. At that, her heart sank.

A moment after, Kevin emerged from the store.

"What are you doing here?" he asked in perplexity.

Kevin never thought that Rose would call Anne just so he would break his engagement with her.

Maybe he should hold her accountable for that.

"You don't have to look so surprised. I only came here to wish you a happy marriage." After that, Anne turned on her heels and left.

If he wanted to marry Rose, he should have just told her. It was not like she would try to beg and stop him from leaving. She was not that shameless to stoop that low.

It was as if he looked down on her and that annoyed her to the core.

"Anne, wait for me!"

Kevin didn't even think about anything as he ran after her. The anxiousness and desperation in his eyes relieved Rose. It looked like he still loved her after all.
