Renewal Of Love novel Chapter 63

Kevin was annoyed by Anne's chilly attitude. This woman was pulling further and further away from him.

Her figure gradually disappeared, but the people in the office were still talking about what just happened. Kevin's face was unhappy and his tone was serious.

"Do you all come to the office to babble? If you don't want to work, head down to HR and turn in your resignation! "

In an instant, everyone went back to their cubicles, and a hushed silence fell over the office, save the ringing of phones and the clacking of printers.

Anne sat in her own office and got to work. The whole morning passed so quickly that she didn't even notice.

Emily, her assistant, walked in and stood beside her.

"Anne, what do you want for lunch? Shall we go together or should I get some takeout for you?"

As an assistant, Emily was very conscientious. She would even help with the little things.

"Let's go out to lunch. I'm pregnant now, and I should get some exercise."

Anne touched her baby bump with her slender hand. As she thought of the little life that was growing inside of her, her heart softened.

"Okay, let's go now. It's my treat!" Emily took up Anne's hand happily and looked enthusiastic.

Looking at her lovely appearance, Anne couldn't help laughing. The coldness in her bright eyes faded. It made her seem so much more accessible.

But when the two of them were about to leave the office hand in hand, someone opened the door to Anne's office suite. It was Kevin, his tall, slender figure looking very businesslike.

The smile on Anne's face disappeared, and her eyes turned cold again.

"Something I can help you with, Mr. Kevin?" Anne's tone was indifferent and respectful, but it contained no warmth.

"Can't I simply come to see you?" Kevin asked in a calm tone.

He frowned at her attempt to create distance.

The woman was smiling happily a minute ago. As soon as she saw him, she became reticent. She must really hate him.

"Of course you can. You're the president and everyone here is your employee. You can pop in whenever you want."

Her tone was still indifferent. She was a little annoyed. She didn't know what was wrong with Kevin these days. He always did something unusual and deliberately found something to yell at her for.

But to avoid an argument, she just simply took it.

Looking at Anne unhappily, Kevin was even angrier. Her indifferent attitude made him really mad.

"It's lunch time. You can have lunch with me." He was cold and impatient, and his statement sounded more like a command than anything else.

Anne looked at Kevin in surprise, wondering if he was out of his mind. He wanted to have lunch with her? What was wrong with him?

When she came to her senses, Anne looked at him calmly and refused without hesitation.

"No, thanks. I told Emily I'd have lunch with her. I don't have time to eat with you. So if you don't mind..."

She knew what was he was thinking. Anne didn't want to be alone with him, even for a second.

"So, Emily—you're having lunch with Anne?"

Kevin looked at Emily and raised his voice as if he was asking, but there was a threat in that question somewhere.

"Well, Anne and I were still figuring that out." She gave Anne a panicked look and tried to avoid a confrontation with Kevin.

Surprised, Anne looked at Emily with dissatisfaction in her beautiful eyes.

A moment ago, the two of them had made a deal, but this girl told Kevin a different story, which put her in an awkward position.

Emily looked at Kevin. "Anne's got to be starving by now. So go ahead and take her out if you want. I have something else to do, so I'll leave you two alone."

After she said this, Emily winked at Anne, signaling her to seize the opportunity and slip away quickly.

Seeing that, Anne felt a little taken aback. Emily did know how Kevin treated her, but this girl still wanted her to go out with Kevin. How ridiculous!

"Do you have time now?" There was a hint of a smile in Kevin's black eyes. He actually found this woman quite cute.

"Kevin, what do you want? I didn't do anything wrong, did I?"

Anne couldn't stand the man, and there he was again. Her expression showed that she was exasperated.

This man's attitude made her feel a little uneasy. She was used to his cold words.

"Did I say you did anything wrong?" While frowning slightly, Kevin was also annoyed by Anne's attitude.

What kind of person did she think he was? He just wanted to have lunch with her.

"You seem to want to cause drama all the time. If you're not happy with my job performance, just tell me. Quit bugging me!"
