Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 160 Make A Scene

"Okay, I'll do as you say," Anne said calmly after she heard the entire story.

"That's everything, so I guess I'll be on my way. You take good care of the baby. If there's anything wrong, you have my number. Just give me a call." After bidding his farewell, Sam left immediately.

With his figure disappearing in the distance, Anne held the baby in her motherly embrace, but her face bared a hint of sadness.

The AN Group was a reputable business giant, the epitome of a well-established enterprise, powered by a well-trained staff.

The thousands of white-collar workers were all busy working in their offices. Very few of the employees dared to slack. If there was a sudden inspection in the headquarters, the overseeing executives would be complacent to see that.

The weather was heavenly outside the company's premises. The dazzling ray of sunshine grazed upon the faces of the corporate society as if halos hovered their heads.

"Let me in! Don't you know who I am? I'm the future wife of this company's president." The woman's plead resonated in the gateway, making everyone in the office intrigued.

They thought that the heightened dispute would be settled, but they didn't expect it to get worse.

"I warn you, if you will not let me in, I'll see to it that you will lose your job." With her eyebrows adjoined, she scanned the two guards who restrained her from entering the gate, and was determined to make her way past them.

"With all due respect, working hours are not to be disturbed."

At this time around, the curious personnel inside the building raised their heads like peeping meerkats. It was the first time that someone had made a commotion, so everyone was inquisitive of who it was.

The fact that Kevin's ex-wife was Anne was a planted thought in every senior official's memory like a seed. Where did this crazy woman come from?

"What are you looking at?" It was Daniel, Kevin's right hand. He came downstairs and scolded fumingly when he saw that everyone was distracted from work.

"Daniel, there is a woman outside who insists on coming in. Is it true that she is the future spouse of the boss?" someone asked Daniel.

This time, Daniel also felt strange. Although Kevin was the chief executive officer, he knew nothing about his private life.

"When did this happen?" he asked.

"About ten minutes ago," someone replied.

Daniel knew Kevin's personality. He would be very distraught to see someone make such a scene in front of his company, but he didn't dare to make a verdict since this woman claimed to be his superior's fiancee.

"You're not paid to gossip here people! Hurry up and get back to work," Daniel instructed them loudly.

He then proceeded to the elevator, pressed the button to the 47th floor, and waited anxiously.

It was quiet outside the CEO's office. There was no one in that floor besides Kevin because he didn't like any unwanted noise. More so, the entry of his office was firmly close.

When Daniel stepped out of the elevator, he approached the door and knocked. Kevin's indifferent voice replied, "Come in."

The moment Daniel entered the room, Kevin's face turned aloof. Apparently, he was unhappy with his sudden presence because it was not the time for the two to exchange documents.

"Mr. Kevin," knowing Kevin's short temper, Daniel said awkwardly.

"What's the matter?" Kevin was unbothered and continued his note taking. His austere and arrogant voice made Daniel high strung.

"Something's going on downstairs, Mr. Kevin. There is a woman outside who claims to be you fiancee. She said she wanted to see you," said Daniel.

It was Cherry again!

Kevin was so furious that he threw his pen on the table. This woman had turned the entire house upside down yesterday, and now she had the audacity to cause turmoil in the company.

"Let her be. If someone dares to break the company policy, shoo them away! That's none of my business." As expected, Kevin's words were apathetic.

"Okay, Mr. Kevin."

Daniel complied in an instant and went straight down the hall. The hall was decorated in a simple style, yet everyone came here would have an impression that it was elegant and classy.

Different from her usual flamboyant fashion, Cherry wore a black handmade dress paired with velvety red high-heeled shoes. Her hair was disheveled and part of her lipstick was smeared due to the ongoing conflict between her and the guards.

A touch of arrogance flared in Cherry's eyes when she saw Daniel approaching. She thought Daniel would let her in.

"Here's the part where I say, 'I told you so.' Here comes someone. I'm sure Kevin ordered for you to get out of my way! I'm his favorite woman." Cherry spoke with pride. She didn't care how other people would interpret her. She must see Kevin, or she had nowhere to go.

"Excuse me, Miss? Mr. Kevin said he had no fiancee. If you really want to talk to him, you should make an appointment," said Daniel gallantly.

But his tone made Cherry go ballistic.

"What did you say? Make an appointment? Bastard, I have to go in today! I have a close relationship with Kevin. Why should I be restricted by your stupid company rules?"

Cherry was so angry that she pulled her hand like a sling and slapped Daniel in the cheek. But Daniel was a person not to be trampled by some vicious woman. He was quick to react and caught Cherry's hand and held her wrist firmly.

"Miss, you attempted to swing at me with your heavy hand and you're here making havoc outside our premises. If you pursue this trouble, I wouldn't mind calling the police." All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

After saying that, Daniel suddenly let go of Cherry's hand.

He then continued, "Everyone, go back to work! If you can't finish your quota, you have to work overtime."

The crowd surrounding the gateway immediately dispersed, leaving only the securities on duty, and a humiliated Cherry.

Cherry gritted her teeth hard. She went there in high hopes of seeing Kevin, but she was left astonished by his ignorance. He refused to have a word with her and denied everything she proudly claimed to injure her dignity.

But deep down her stony heart, Cherry knew it wasn't Kevin's fault. She mistreated his child, so it was not a surprise that he mirrored her actions. He would be fine for a while. But Cherry was confident. No matter what happened, Kevin would eventually find her way back to her.

She examined the bustling perimeter and went to a coffee shop opposing the company facade.

Meanwhile, Kevin had just finished drinking his coffee. The coffee cup perched like an installation. Although it was empty, the strong fragrant aroma of the black java still filled the air.

He was peeved by Cherry's scandalous behavior, so he put down the documents he was working on and decided to call it a day.

"Mr. Kevin, are you going to get off work early today?" Daniel asked as he came in with a pile of paper and saw Kevin pick up his car keys.

"You can just place those on the table. Look after the company for me and do everything you can to finish today's work before going home."

Kevin had a serious tone. In his core, he thought it was unnecessary to work overtime because he believed that everything could be under control in fulfillment of efficiency.

"Will do, Mr. Kevin. Are you going to deal with the controversy earlier?" Daniel asked.

He pondered Kevin was somehow involved with the viscous woman at the gate.

Kevin was agitated, but when he heard the secretary's inquest, his temper felt boiling. "Just do your job. My private life is none of your business, and take away the plants on the table."

Without saying anything more, he strode away, leaving Daniel a cold back to watch.

"But you said the plants would purify the air…" Daniel was puzzled.

In the parking lot, Kevin sat in his car and started the engine. He saw Cherry sitting by the window in the nearby cafe. He grinned sarcastically.

He had guessed that Cherry would just sit there waiting for him, so he stepped on the gas and quickly left.

Cherry too had seen Kevin in his car. She wanted to confront him but before she was able to put down her coffee and run outside, it was already too late.

She quickly hailed a taxi and commanded the driver, "Follow that car in front of you."

At four forty in the afternoon, rush hour was still an hour away, yet there were so many people roaming the streets already. The cars kept coming from all directions, blocking the taxi from time to time.

"Could you please hurry up? Don't you know how to drive? He's getting away!" Cherry raised her voice as soon as she saw the disappearing Rolls-Royce in her sight.

She stamped her point heels, poking the seat cushion hard. By this time, the driver lost his patience.

"That's a hundred-thousand-dollar car, and mine is just a simple cab. If you are so eager to catch up with him, then you better get on your feet and start running, young lady. Get out!"

The taxi driver also had a short temper. He didn't like people who had a domineering attitude like Cherry, so he reached for the knob in the back seat and told her to get off.

"Excuse me? How dare you speak to me like that? You'll regret that, mister!" said Cherry fiercely.

"We drivers have dignity. We don't tolerate unreasonable obligation."

No matter how much Cherry ranted, the driver closed the door and left her.

Cherry found herself dancing with cars as she went for the sidewalk. She was hopping mad, but she had nowhere to go. She had to find a hotel nearby before she could think things through.

In the Fu Family's residence.

Kevin arrived at the gate shortly. He noticed how serene the place was. He saw a flock of white doves flying across the sky, and the whistling wind was wonderful to the ears.

The birds were raised by the owner of a nearby villa, three hundred meters away. Their snow-like color was beautiful against the soft sunshine and the blue sky.

A rare smile of tranquility appeared on Kevin's face, an expression far from his usual tact and alienation.

The moment he absorbed the calm moment, the gate was opened for him to drive in. After he pulled out the car keys, he suddenly felt relaxed.

Behind the see-through curtain, he could see Anne coaxing the child carefully. Perhaps she was telling a joke, but the child didn't smile. While her lips uttered words, she suddenly laughed out loud.

There was no one to bother her at home anymore. The mistress was gone which indeed would make her happy.

When Kevin entered the villa, he noticed Anne was sensible. She immediately stopped smiling and made a defensive stance while carrying the child.

"Kevin, you're home early," she said calmly.

His good mood was gone. When Anne raised his guard upon seeing him, he was disturbed.

"Yeah,"

Kevin answered with a solitary word before heading straight to his bedroom.

Anne felt offended deep down. It seemed that Kevin never cared about the child. If he had no plans, why did he insist on having one before?

"Baby, let's go back to the bedroom and play, okay?"

Patting the baby on the shoulder, Anne said to the nanny, "Send the meal to the bedroom later."

She then proceeded to their bedroom and never came out.

When it was time for supper, Kevin came out of his room and expected that she would see Anne sitting at the dining table, but he was wrong.
