Renewal Of Love novel Chapter 449

Anne and Kevin looked at each other with gloomy eyes, trying to find solace in each another. However, after their interaction, they felt even more helpless.

'What would propel a father to do this?' they thought to themselves, in search of an answer. 'Why would he let his son endure a few more dreadful years in prison?'

The real question was what had really happened between them. What was the reasoning behind the father choosing to let his son suffer in prison for a few more years while he was getting on for seventy?

Much to the couple's chagrin, the man in question kept silent, so Anne and Kevin were unable to figure out the cause.

"I just can't let it go." Her pleading eyes travelled all the way up to her husband's face. She felt weak and vulnerable.

Kevin smiled and nodded in agreement. Indeed, Anne was right. However, the old man was so stubborn that they had no other choice but to accept it.

"We are unfamiliar with W City and, you know, we can't take care of him. It just seems that this is our fate. We can't do anything about it." Anne shook her head. She couldn't face the horrible truth.

Kevin gave up trying to console her, so he chuckled and lowered his eyes. He figured everyone had their own destiny. So, the only thing he wanted was to be in control of their own lives and carry on without regrets.

After they came back to the hotel, Anne and Kevin packed their luggage and realized that they had more things than expected.

Therefore, her hand rested nervously on her forehead, as she was trying to find a solution. Since they had purchased so many things at the mall, they had no choice but to figure out a way of taking all the things with them.

"Should we just let the hotel send the package back?" Kevin suggested the idea given their current situation. He flashed Anne a small smile in a bid to convince her.

In the end, this was the only possibility, so Anne nodded in agreement.

Late at night, when the couple was about to fall asleep, Kevin's phone suddenly rang. He woke up and immediately looked at the number, but he couldn't help raising his eyebrows in surprise.

"It's so late. What's up?" Kevin whispered in a soft voice, as he was checking up on Anne who was curling up in his arms.

"I've thought long and hard about it and I've decided I can't hide this from you anymore. It's time for me to tell you the truth. I've reached a certain age and when my time comes, I will feel ashamed for not facing the consequences of my actions," said the old man with incredible calm.

Anne had held her breath during the man's long speech, but her eyes lit up at the realization. The old man was finally willing to tell them the truth.

It was safe to say that she was extremely excited to hear it.

Kevin put the old man on speaker phone and his voice was now much louder on the other side. "You have to know that my injury was caused by none other than Abel!"

Anne and Kevin frowned at each other in disbelief. In the end, although they had already guessed it, it turned out to be Abel.

Unfortunately, the news didn't surprise them.

Every time Anne and Kevin met with him, they had this recurring feeling that the old man's wound had something to do with Abel. Nevertheless, they couldn't say anything about the topic, since he was the old man's child. But now the truth was out.

'Abel is such an asshole!'

Anne cursed internally.

"But there is a reason behind his actions!" The old man sighed heavily and resumed his speech. "Did you already know Abel is a street gangster? My wife and I have been trying to persuade him to leave this awful life, but he won't listen to us. Due to his unruly behavior, my wife was pissed off and passed away and I can't control everything he does. I have no say in his actions! What's more, I'm going to die soon. I've given up. Abel can do whatever he wants.

He has never been as bad as this. At least for so many years, he had never laid a finger on me!

But this time, the situation is different!" The sadness of the old man's voice was palpable. He couldn't help but sigh heavily after letting it all out.

"Kim, namely Cory from the AS Group, is a gangster. Even though this is a legal society, this man can get rid of anyone who gets in his way!

For instance, Kim once threatened Abel that he really wanted to kill him! How dare we provoke such a person? So, we had no other choice but to follow Kim's orders.

He ordered us to deal with you. But, in the midst of desperation, Abel had to find someone to hit me, so that I could blame all of this on you!

Unfortunately, we don't know what his true intentions are. What is the deal between you and him? Anyway, all I can say is that, for the sake of my son's life, I had to listen to Kim!" In the end, the old man felt there was no way out of this situation.

Abel was his only child and, although he was extremely disappointing, he couldn't let his own son die at the hands of someone else.

Thus, the whole series of events were finally explained by the man.

Later, after listening to the old man, Anne and Kevin promised to protect Abel at all costs and to assure that Kim was going to pay for the things he'd done. So, without further ado, the old man hung up the phone, feeling a weight off his shoulders.

Anne gritted her teeth with anger. 'Damn it, Kim!' she cursed internally. 'He used everything he had in his power to distract us and disrupt our cooperation with Mr. Huang!

How could someone like him exist?!'

"We have to seize the opportunity and bring Kim to justice! He must rot in prison!" Anne exclaimed angrily at Kevin while firmly gripping his shirt.

It was true that Kim had gone too far this time. In fact, he really believed he could get away with anything! Without any repercussion!

This person was rotten to the core. It was impossible to find any trace of humanity in his heart.

Kevin nodded slightly and held Anne tightly in his arms to ease her impotence. Without letting her go, his eyes were fixated on the wall, lost in thought.

Indeed, they couldn't indulge Kim any more. The time had come to set things straight with him.

"So, we're going to stick to the original plan. We'll go back to A City first thing in the morning." Then, Kevin softly kissed his wife's forehead and slowly drifted off.

Even though he had fallen asleep, her eyes didn't move away. But, Anne sighed helplessly and figured she couldn't fight sleep any longer.

The next morning, the couple boarded the flight to A City.

When Kevin and Anne arrived in the afternoon, Emily and Sam had already been waiting eagerly to pick them up.
