Renewal Of Love

Chapter 457 Take Action

In the police director's office.

Anne and Kevin had taken a seat opposite to the director, wearing a very serious expression on their

faces. In front of them, sat the director with expectant eyes.

Unable to keep silent any longer, Kevin sighed loudly. "Sir, according to our understanding of Kim's

personality, if he gets out of prison, he'll most likely take the opportunity to run away. If this is so, I'm

afraid we won't be able to find him anymore!

Besides, I'm pretty sure he won't cooperate with us, if he doesn't get anything in return. Whatever way

we look at this, it appears to be a very unstable factor for us."

The director took Kevin's concerns into consideration. Then, he furrowed his eyebrows and realized the

man sitting in front of him was right.

What Kevin mentioned was true. In fact, the director knew how cunning Kim was. Unfortunately, if he

managed to run away, the director would be held accountable for this, for Kim had been already

sentenced to death.

Originally, the director wanted to help the couple with their difficult situation. However, if the plan failed,

he would be held responsible for his incompetence. Therefore, he couldn't let this happen to him.

'Then, what should I do?' the director thought to himself.

"The last time Kim caught me, he cast two people, like it's done for TV and movies. With some make

up here and there, he managed to make them look very similar to us! If I hadn't observed these people

from head to toe, I would have been fooled too!" exclaimed Anne, who was sitting next to her husband.

"Okay!" So, the director of the police station clapped his hands and puffed his chest. "Very good. We

will do the same!" he said with a satisfied smile.

Then, Anne and Kevin exchanged looks and nodded helplessly to themselves. Based on the current

situation, there was no other way of proceeding.

On the other hand, thanks to the police's involvement, they soon found a similar person that could

replace Kim. After some training, he looked and acted exactly like him.

After taking a look at Kim's replacement, both Anne and Kevin let out a sigh of relief. Meanwhile, they

waited for Kim's men to get in contact with Kevin.

If Kevin hadn't suffered the injury to his legs, they would have already contacted him. However, since

he was hospitalized, they had no choice but to wait.

Unfortunately, they couldn't wait any longer.

Now, the day of Kim's execution was due within no time.

Finally, one evening, Kevin received a call. He proceeded to tell them that someone had been put into

the prison to replace Kim, so Kim could go back at any time. The great news was received

enthusiastically by the other party. They thanked Kevin profusely, although he wasn't as eager to

receive their gratitude.

This time, Kevin didn't let Anne follow him. He asked Emily to keep an eye on her while he was gone.

Meanwhile, Anne felt completely helpless. The danger her husband could face left her restless, unable

to stay still at her own home.

At first, Sam wanted to help Kevin without telling Emily. Nevertheless, she could read her husband like

a book. Emily was well aware that Sam would never let his good friend go alone. Therefore, she took

the initiative and asked her husband to help Kevin.

Obviously, Sam hadn't expected her to take the first step and speak her mind. So, he was really moved

when it happened. Sam approached his wife and held her tightly in his arms. As they were immersed in

the warmth of their embrace, eternal seconds had passed before he let Emily go due to Kevin's

constant persistence. Therefore, Sam asked Anne to keep his wife safe.

The Fu Family had so many servants around the house, however Anne felt a bit helpless. What could

happen to them in these conditions?

Nevertheless, as a favor to dear Sam, she had no choice but to do as she was told.

After Kevin and Sam left the house, Anne and Emily leaned back on the sofa and watched whatever

was on TV. At times, they would slightly smile at each other when something funny came up, but, in

reality, their mind was somewhere else.

It went without saying that what the guys were about to do was extremely dangerous. Even though

Kevin and Sam were intelligent, Emily and Anne felt righteously worried thinking something atrocious

could happen to them. It was just like the last time, back then no one imagined the bodyguards would

shoot!

All of a sudden, the girls came back to earth as soon as they noticed a familiar face on TV. Anne tried

squinting her eyes to get a better look and she couldn't believe her eyes. It was Cherry!

After the police went through the painstaking job of discovering Kim's true identity, they went on to track

down Cherry. Much to their chagrin, the police couldn't figure out her real name. Nowadays, she was as

popular as ever and often appeared on TV. Unfortunately, seeing her face everywhere got annoying

really fast.

"After Kim's case is over, we will expose Cherry's true identity. It's beyond me how this woman can still

be so arrogant." Emily let out a hopeless sigh and took a sip of the water in front of her.

Anne didn't take Emily's words seriously, though. With a gentle smile, she said, "As long as Cherry

doesn't get near us or tries to provoke us, I don't care what she did in the past anymore."

Emily had known Anne for a long time, so she knew her well. After she heard her comment on the

topic, Emily couldn't help but sigh slightly and lower her head in defeat.

Anne was still too kind-hearted. Emily thought that if Anne could take the chance and destroy Cherry

once and for all, the arrogant girl would never dare to stir up trouble again.

Suddenly, Anne's phone rang, snapping both of them out of their thoughts. They were very nervous

and even forgot how to breathe.

Without a second thought, Anne got closer to the phone screen to try and make out who the caller was.

Immediately, Emily knew that from the expression of her face it couldn't have been Kevin or Sam.

"Why did you call me?" Anne answered with a smile.

"Mark isn't here today. A few hours ago, I basically forced myself to eat something, but now I feel very

uncomfortable and I can't manage to fall asleep." Rose's voice had changed a lot and now, it sounded

softer. In fact, her voice sounded very pleasant over the phone.

After Anne listened to her pitiful confession, she shook her head helplessly, as she understood Rose's

troubles. "I can't sleep either. Do you want to talk for a bit?"

Anne could feel Rose smiling widely on the other side of the phone. Emily, who was sitting beside her,

was certainly speechless. Her eyes widened while she looked at Anne in disbelief. Impressed by what

was going on, she quickly muted the TV.

As a matter of fact, it was weird seeing Anne talking to Rose with a smile on her face!

For years, the two sisters were declared enemies because of Kevin. But suddenly, they were talking

over the phone as if they were as thick as thieves. It seemed as if those horrible experiences and bad

memories had vanished without a trace.

From the expression of her face, it was obvious that Emily felt deeply confused. She lowered her head

and stared at her hands silently. For a few minutes, she was hesitant of what she was about to do, but

then she decidedly pinched herself! Almost immediately, her face contorted with pain.

At that moment, Emily knew she wasn't dreaming. This was real life!

Anne and Rose were really talking like sisters on the phone!

After chatting for a few minutes, Anne hung up the phone and met the perplexed eyes of Emily. She

figured she had some explaining to do, so she shook her head and, with a smile on her face, told Emily

what had happened when she met Rose at the hospital last time. After listening attentively to her

friend's story, Emily felt properly surprised.

"If I hadn't pinched myself just now, I wouldn't believe that this magical scene before my eyes was real!

I must confess that I never expected Rose to give up on pursuing Kevin's love one day! I'm delighted to

hear that she has turned over a new leaf and decided to apologize to you!" Emily shook her head, while

still in disbelief.

Emily's reaction amused Anne as a smile was forming on her lips. However, when she lowered her

eyes, she could understand why she was feeling this way. Indeed, Anne had also suspected that what

happened at the hospital between Rose and her was only just a dream. Fortunately, the most recent

phone call confirmed that it was real after all.

Yes, Anne and Rose had finally reconciled, and it was obvious that the latter wanted to bury the hatchet

once and for all and dissolve their previous conflict.

Because Rose had taken the initiative to show her affection, Anne decided not to be arrogant and

reciprocate it. They were sisters, after all. It was better to let everything stay in the past. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

"What happened in the past shouldn't matter anymore, Rose and I are sisters and it's going to stay that

way!" Anne said to Emily, after she sighed helplessly.

Emily went over her friend's words and she had no choice but to smile wanly. 'Has Anne really

forgotten about what happened between them?' In the past, Rose shamelessly abandoned her

husband and daughter in order to pursue Kevin!

"Well, we have to put the past behind us at one point! Enemies can easily reconcile, what's hard is to

declare them. It's actually a good thing," Emily told Anne with a smile on her face. As all was said and

done, she turned up the TV volume and went back to watch whatever was on.

Anne nodded absent-mindedly and said nothing at all.

Perhaps, the reason she decided to forgive Rose was because she wanted to win back her family. No

matter how much Anne had suffered because of Rose in the past, it was undeniable that the two of

them shared the same blood.

And what Emily said was right. She could tell her heart was soft.

'We certainly have to put the past behind us. Plus, Rose had suffered a lot already, both mentally and

physically. It's enough!'

Meanwhile, Kevin and Sam had already arrived at the appointed place and met with the group of

people.

Right at this moment, they were standing on the top of the run-down building, with a gun in their hands

against the substitute's forehead.

Kim's replacement had a noticeably erect posture, and an evil smile could be seen forming on the

corner of his lips. He looked down with his dark eyes, and his body naturally exuded a cold aura.

In fact, this whole act wasn't easy for him to do.

Nonetheless, because he had succeeded at doing so, the bodyguards believed that the man standing

in front of them was Kim.

"Kevin, let our boss go. From now on, we won't cause you any trouble. So, we are quits, understood?"

Kim's bodyguard walked all the way to the front to face Kevin.

The latter, on the other hand, smiled coldly. "How dare you say that after what you've done to me? My

leg hasn't healed yet. That bullet almost left me paralyzed!"

Kim's bodyguard frowned and glared at him.

Kevin tightened his grip on the weapon and slowly wrapped his finger around the trigger.

"No!" The bodyguard let out a nervous but loud yelp. Meanwhile, the rest of Kim's people stared at

Kevin angrily.

What was happening in front of him made him sneer. "I won't tolerate what you've done to me. You shot

me that day, so today I'm taking matters into my own hands. Unless you want me to seek my revenge

on your boss. It's your call, choose carefully."

"There's nothing to think about. You can shoot me if you want. Just let my boss go!" Kim's bodyguard

stepped forward. It was safe to say that he was a loyal man.

Kevin raised his eyebrows and looked at the bodyguard up and down. To be honest, he couldn't help

but respect the man in front of him. At least he was sincere and responsible!

Unfortunately, it was such a pity that this person happened to be Kim's loyal minion!

Kevin felt trapped. He slowly stepped forward to take a look at the people waiting for him downstairs.

"Since I have saved Kim from dying in prison, we can make a deal. But how can I trust you if you have

such a big group of people? What am I supposed to do if I let Kim go and you decide to get rid of us?"

Everyone exchanged confused looks and turned to Kevin simultaneously.

"Kevin, enough with the nonsense! What on earth do you want to do? Tell me!" In fact, they were all

wanted criminals. The longer they stayed here, the greater danger they would face.

They needed to come to a conclusion quickly. If this was so, they would be able to leave as soon as

possible.

Kevin hesitated for a moment, but after a few seconds it was clear that he had thought of something.

"In order to ensure Sam's and my safety, you must hand over your weapons. Only this way, will I let go

of Kim!"

"Kevin, do you really think I don't know what you have up your sleeve? Listen up, everyone. Don't pay

attention to what he says. He must have other plans!" Kim's replacement suddenly said.

The bodyguards, however, didn't notice anything different, because his voice sounded the same as

Kim's!

Without making a fuss, Sam reached the back pocket of his pants and slowly put away something.

Fortunately, no one noticed anything suspicious.

Meanwhile, the bodyguard and the others frowned and fixed their eyes on Kim. They obviously knew

that Kevin was up to no good, that he had planned something. However, if they didn't hand in their

weapons, something bad would happen to their boss.

"Yes, you are right. Since they dared to lay a finger on Anne, you better believe that I will end their lives

at once!" Kevin said to Kim with a contorted smile.

Then, he turned to look at Sam. "The day I heard from them that protecting Kim was their sole purpose

in life, I really believed they would do anything for him. But it turns out that they aren't so loyal after all!

Well, don't waste each other's time. Now shoot!"
