Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 115 Ruthlessness

"Kevin, do you still have feelings for Anne? After the two of you broke up, you've been so cold towards me. Don't you love me anymore?"

Cherry looked at him with grief and forbearance in her beautiful eyes.

She knew that it would be difficult for her to discard Anne's existence in his life completely. Still, that didn't mean she could tolerate his mean demeanor towards her.

The woman's words fueled his upset feeling more.

"Please, I don't want to repeat what I've just said anymore!"

Her eyes widened in surprise. She looked at him as pain surged within her heart. It was the first time that he had snapped in front of her.

She bit her lower lip and tried to stop the tears that filled her eyes. It was the first time her almond eyes had looked pitiful.

"Sorry, I was just scared,"

she whispered. Then she turned her back and walked upstairs after she had wiped the tears off her face.

When he saw the look in her eyes, Kevin slightly frowned. He was regretful at the dismissed tone in his voice, but he couldn't help it. Not with how impatience ate his heart away.

All he thought about was Anne. The thought of getting married to Cherry never crossed his mind.

Deep inside him, he knew that the woman he planned to marry was Cherry. However, his heart resisted just by the thought of it.

He seemed to have changed for he had never been influenced by the idea of love.

Gloom gnawed his heart as he sat on the sofa. His head screamed and was full of Anne.

From this moment onwards, the person who was in charge of taking care of her was Sam. 'Would that damned woman take this opportunity to fall in love with him?'

Kevin felt like he'd go insane just by the thought of it.

While he was lost in various fancies and conjectures, the butler came in and saw the heavy look in his eyes.

"Mr. Kevin, Miss Anne is at the door," the butler informed. Kevin stared at the butler with utter surprise after he heard her name.

"What is she doing here?"

Her sudden appearance made him want to rush out and see her, but he restrained himself.

"Miss Anne said that she came here to see the child," the butler said hesitantly as he looked at Kevin's gloomy face.

"Tell her to go away. I won't let her see my child."

He had already predicted the reason for her sudden appearance. He felt sorry for her, but he wouldn't let her see the baby.

"Yes, I will tell her to go away this instant," the butler answered and left quickly.

He went to the gate of the villa and saw that the woman stood and waited patiently. He walked over towards her.

"Miss Anne, Mr. Kevin said that he didn't want to see you at the moment. Please go back,"

he said indifferently and ordered the guard to close the gate.

"Butler, please let me see Kevin. I just need to see my child."

His words made Anne anxious. All she wanted was to see her baby. Why did he have to refuse so stubbornly?

"Miss. Anne, please don't make things hard for me. I am just a housekeeper who passes on Mr. Kevin's words."

He felt a little soft after he had seen the pleading eyes of the woman, but his job was more important for him than her dilemma.

After that, the security guards came in and closed the gates without further notice.

Anne watched as the iron gates isolated her from the people inside. She squatted on the ground and cried bitterly.

'I just wanted to catch a glimpse of my child.'

Kevin stood by the huge French window and looked at the crouched figure outside with heartache.

The woman was more stubborn than he had thought. He had already made himself clear while they were in the hospital, but she refused to give up.

Anne stood by the closed gate for two hours and didn't move to leave. All the while, Kevin matched with her and stood by the window and watched her.

'Damn it! It hasn't been that long since she gave birth to the baby. How could she just stand there and not care for her body at all? Is she not aware that it could harm her body?'

"Mr. Kevin, Miss. Anne has been standing by the gate for almost three hours. Would you like to come down and see her?"

The butler walked towards Kevin and tried to persuade him. He couldn't keep his mouth shut anymore after he saw that Anne remained outside.

"Drive that woman away and warn her to never enter the villa again," Kevin ordered in a cold, harsh voice as he clenched his fists.

The butler sighed helplessly after he heard his order. He wanted to say something but shut his mouth in the end.

He walked towards the entrance and when he opened the gate, the woman had turned a little pale. As soon as the gate opened, she quickly turned her body and faced the butler.

"Butler, did Mr. Kevin finally agreed to let me see my child?" She looked at the butler and seemed a little excited about his sudden appearance.

The moment the butler caught a glimpse of the expectant look on her face, he looked away awkwardly. He didn't want to see her disappointed.

However, his job was being Kevin's butler so he had to follow his order.

"Miss Anne, you should probably go back. Mr. Kevin will never see you nor will he let you see the child. It's useless for you to wait here."

The butler sighed and looked at her sympathetically. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

"Why are you being so cruel to me? How could Kevin do this to me? Butler, please let me in. I'm begging you."

Hatred towards Kevin ran across her heart. The man had been so ruthless towards her. He didn't just refuse to let her see the child; he also hid from her.

He was heartless! Did he never harbor any sort of feeling for her?

"Miss Anne, please don't make this difficult for me. No one dares to disobey Mr. Kevin." He looked at her, embarrassed that he couldn't do anything to help her.

He would be punished if he did.

"Go and tell Kevin that I won't move here until he lets me see the child!"

She would never give up. She must see her child no matter what.

The butler shook his head at the determined woman in front of him before he closed the gate.

The sound of the gate shut close was like the button that made her heart run cold. Her child was in this villa, yet she couldn't go and see him.

Kevin was really ruthless…

"Why is she still there? Didn't I ask you to drive her away?"

The man turned around and eyed his butler maliciously after he had realized that the woman didn't move an inch from the gate.

"Mr. Kevin, Miss. Anne was firm. She said that she wouldn't leave unless she saw her child," he answered cautiously as he tried his best to bear the anger of his master.

Kevin knew that her decision would never change so he felt sorry towards her.

Still, he held back his pity for Anne and said coldly,

"Since it seems like she loves to stand outside, let her. Let's see where her stubbornness would lead her." When she couldn't stand any longer, she would leave. What was he so worried about?

The butler noticed that his boss's expression contradicted the words he just uttered. He wanted to say something but later decided not to. Instead, he shook his head at the man's hardheadedness and left.

It was clear that his master was worried about the woman's well-being yet he decided to hurt her. He really couldn't grasp the logic that ran through his master's mind.

Kevin thought that Anne wouldn't last long but he clearly underestimated the woman's perseverance. She remained standing by the gate until night.

She didn't consume anything, neither rice nor water. She could feel her limbs get weak and her body started to shake.

She had just given birth to the baby and wasn't fully recovered yet. It was obvious that her body was getting tired and she wouldn't be able to hold on for too long but still, she refused to leave just like that.

Inside the villa, Cherry looked at Anne by the French window. She stood by the gate unsteadily and visibly weak.

"Kevin, she has been standing there for too long. Since you refused to see her, why didn't you ask the butler to drive her away?"

She reminded him in a low voice, careful to hide her heart that wished her cousin would just disappear and never appear in front of him again.

"If she wants to stand there, just leave her alone," Kevin said coldly.

His harsh voice made Cherry feel uneasy. She just couldn't read what was on his mind.

She turned around and looked at Anne with disdain.

'How shameless! Even after all this, she still refused to let Kevin go.'

After a while, lightning struck up in the sky and thunder roared angrily.

Heavy rain started to pour.

Anne felt the drop of cold rain against her skin and was pulled out of her trance. She looked up at the angry sky and asked if the God above opposed her idea of seeing her child too.

"Mr. Kevin, it's raining," the butler walked up towards Kevin and said in a restrained voice.

He had meant to remind him that Anne was still out there but since Cherry was with his presence, he swallowed back his words.

Kevin stood up abruptly and strode towards the French window.

The woman at the gate remained standing still and showed no sign of leaving.

'What the hell is this woman up to? It's raining! Is she trying to test and see for how long her body could last?'

His handsome face darkened as he banged his fist hard against the glass window.
