Chapter 95 What An Overbearing Man!
Chapter 95 What An Overbearing Man!
After an entire day's worth of work, Anne was exhausted. She didn't know if it was just because she
was pregnant or if she had just been resting too much recently.
She walked on the streets, feeling irritable when she recalled Kevin's unusual behavior that day.
For the life of her, she couldn't figure out why he would treat Ryan like that in the meeting earlier. It was
so uncharacteristic of him.
His mood swings lately had been crazy. It seemed that he was purposely trying to get on her nerves.
She didn't know what on earth he wanted her to do then he could let her go.
She absolutely loathed him but for some reason, she couldn't get him off her mind.
Why couldn't she just forget about him? It seemed that he was deeply etched in her heart.
Anne smiled ironically, forcing herself to not think about it anymore. Suddenly, a loud horn blared into
her ears.
Eyebrows furrowed together, she looked back and found the black Rolls-Royce following behind her.
She already knew who it was.
Scowling, she turned her head away, ignoring Kevin.
"Anne, I'm giving you ten seconds to get in. If you don't, you can't blame me for using force,"
Kevin said spitefully.
More than anything, he hated her indifference towards him. That scowl on her face didn't help either.
'What an overbearing man!'
Anne cursed inwardly. Despite her unwillingness, she had no choice but to get inside the car. After all,
she knew this man was capable of doing anything.
She couldn't risk it. It was entirely possible that Kevin would cause a scene out on the streets and she
definitely didn't want that.
"Why do you look like that whenever you see me?"
Kevin frowned slightly as he glanced at Anne from the corner of his eye, visibly unhappy. Her face was
stone cold as if this was the last place she wanted to be.
"Mr. Kevin, can we talk?"
She needed to talk to him as this was getting out of hand already. At the very least, she wanted to be
civil with him before they divorced.
"Okay, what do you want to talk to me about?" Kevin said plainly.
His straightforwardness briefly took Anne aback. Within the next moment, she had collected herself.
"Mr. Kevin, I know you hate me but I hope that we can get along and make peace with each other
before we divorce,"
Anne said seriously, looking at him.
"Do you think we're not getting along now?"
Kevin asked coolly. The look on his face was unfathomable but his eyes told her all she needed to
know—he wasn't in a good mood.
"Mr. Kevin, don't you think you're becoming more and more irritable? I'm also pretty sure that you're
getting more hostile towards me now."
As she recalled all that Kevin had done to her, aversion filled her eyes.
She didn't even know what she had done to offend him yet that didn't stop him from punishing her.
"Did I say I was getting more hostile towards you?" Kevin retorted, his face darkened.
Anne tightened her jaw, seemingly frustrated seeing him being so unreasonable.
"Mr. Kevin, you don't think that what you've been doing to me these past few days is too much?"
"I don't think so," Kevin answered confidently, curling his lips.
Anne was seething but she knew better than to snap at him.
"Mr. Kevin, as soon as I give birth to this baby, we're cutting each other off. Let's just stay away from
each other until the divorce, okay?"
Anne said honestly, looking at Kevin expectantly. Surely, this request shouldn't be too difficult for him to
agree to.
"You want us to stay away from each other? Anne, are you planning to divorce me now?"
Kevin glowered at her. 'This damn woman wants to stay away from me.'
With the way Kevin was looking at her, she grew flustered.
"Our relationship exists only because of the contract. Once all this is over, I have the right to plan for
my future."
Once she gave birth to the baby, he was going to divorce her. Shouldn't she have the freedom to make
plans for her life?
"What are you going to do? Are you going to throw yourself into Ryan's arms after divorcing me? Are
you forgetting who you are?"
'Damn it! Is she just saying all this to me because she wants to move on already? Is it because of
Ryan?"
"Mr. Kevin, Ryan and I are merely friends. It's not what you think."
She couldn't help but be anxious at the thought of Kevin misunderstanding her relationship with Ryan.
This wasn't what she wanted at all.
"Is that so? Then tell me. What should I think about you two? If you two are just friends, why would you
hug each other?"
The image of her smiling happily in Ryan's arms was still vivid in his mind. The thought of her meeting
up with another man behind his back immediately triggered him as anger thrummed through his veins.
Anne couldn't help but feel wronged. Why was he so adamant on pushing this narrative on her? When
did he see her hugging Ryan?
"What? You don't know what to say after you've been caught red-handed?"
Kevin snapped before Anne could say anything. His mouth set in a hard line, fuming. 'Isn't she even
going to bother to explain herself?' he thought inwardly.
"Say what? Mr. Kevin, since you want to believe that Ryan and I are having an affair, what else is there
for me to say? Would you even believe me if I tried to explain my side to you?"
Glowering at Kevin, Anne was unable to restrain her anger anymore.
He had always been self-righteous. Just because he was insisting that she was having an affair with
Ryan, did that make it true?
"Anne, you need to give me an explanation! Also, you're not allowed to see Ryan from now on."
For the first time, Kevin felt that Ryan was a threat to him. He couldn't shake off the feeling that his
possessions were being coveted by others. He absolutely hated feeling this way. To say the least, it
wasn't a pleasant feeling at all.
Anne took several deep breaths as a way to calm herself down before fixing her gaze back at him.
"Mr. Kevin, Ryan and I are just friends. I can't promise that I won't see him again. What I can promise
you is that I won't be too intimate with anyone until I give birth."
This was the most she could compromise. While she only saw Ryan as a friend, he was still very
important to her. He was the only person who remembered her birthday and seemed to genuinely still
care about her.
She couldn't possibly let go of such a person.
"You can't promise me that? How wonderful Anne, are you purposely challenging me? Or are you
cheating on me?" This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
'Damn it! How dare she turn me down? I treat her so well. She's getting bolder and bolder!'
"……"
She had made herself very clear, but he wasn't going to back down. For once, couldn't they just have a
calm conversation?
"Mr. Kevin, I don't know how to make myself any clearer to you. I won't be unfaithful to you until we
divorce. I assure you that."
Divorce?
Why did she keep bringing up the divorce? Was she so eager to end their relationship?
"Listen carefully, Anne. Without my permission, you're not allowed to be around any other man and
you're not allowed to have an intimate relationship with them,"
Kevin said arrogantly. It didn't matter if he wanted her or not—no one else could have her.
"Kevin, can you stop trying to control me?"
Anger rippled through her. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. It seemed that it was impossible
to have a proper conversation with him.
"No! Anne, you need to remember that you are my woman. Until I abandon you, I will remain as the
only man in your heart and eyes,"
he said rather brazenly, with his chest puffed out as if he had all the reason in the world by his side.
"……"
Anne glared at him, too angry to say a word. She never should have expected that she'd be able to
have a level-headed conversation with him.
Her face turned red, utterly enraged. Now more than ever, she knew that Kevin was hopeless.
"Mr. Kevin, we have nothing to say to each other anymore. I'll get out of the car now. Please stop the
car."
She was done trying to talk some reason into him. With that, she looked out of the window.
The car screeched to a halt.
The sudden impact caused Anne to lean forward rather abruptly.
She shot daggers at Kevin. Didn't he know that she was pregnant? Doing this could hurt the baby!
Anne opened the door indignantly. Just as she was about to get off the car, Kevin grabbed her by the
arm and pulled her towards him.
"Since we don't have anything to say to each other. Why don't we do something that doesn't need
talking?" Kevin said maliciously.
He suddenly bent over, the lust in his eyes undeniable.
"Kevin, what are you doing? Let go of me!" Anne became flustered and struggled to free herself from
his grip, knowing what he was about to do.
