Attracted By My Ex-wife Chapter 54 His Occasional Tenderness

"Kevin, why did you brake so suddenly? Don't you know it's dangerous?" Still suffering from the shock,
Anne returned to consciousness and looked at Kevin with discontent.

With a quick glance at her, Kevin swiftly took off his coat and put it around her body.

When Anne gazed at the handsome face in front of her, her heart thumped wildly. Did he stop the car
just to cover her with his clothes?

"Are you feeling warmer?" Kevin's deep and magnetic voice came through with its unique masculine
charm.

"Yes..."

Anne awkwardly averted her gaze from his dark eyes. He could always make her heart beat
uncontrollably.

His gesture made her frozen heart melt. He must care about her a little, didn't he?

"Why did you put your coat on me?"

Her voice was cautious and her beautiful eyes were concealing unexpressed expectations. She would
be satisfied with any answer as long as it showed Kevin's care for her.

"For the baby! It is in your belly, so you can't get sick!" Kevin wanted to say he was afraid that she
would catch a cold, but those words got completely altered when they left his mouth.

The color in Anne's eyes vanished in an instant. She turned to look out of the window and smiled
bitterly.



She should have known that his actions were solely motivated by the baby's well-being. However, she
couldn't help but feel that she had flattered herself. He didn't care about her at all. If she didn't carry his
child in her womb, his indifference would be such as to let her freeze to death.

After sensing the change in her mood and seeing her eyes turn cold, Kevin became a little irritable. He
wondered why he had begun to care about this woman recently.

They didn't share a word all the way back to the villa.

Anne opened the door and got out of the car. She frowned as her sprained foot caused her a sharp
pain.

Kevin strode forward, but seeing the struggle and sweat on her pale face made him feel sorry for her.

He turned back, lifted Anne up and headed toward the living room.

With shock spreading on her features, Anne wrapped her arms around his neck tightly. Even though
she knew that all he was doing was for the baby's sake, her heart couldn't help but beat for him.

Waiting anxiously in the living room, Cherry rushed over when she saw Kevin arrive.

"Kevin, you're finally back! I was so worried about you..." She walked up to him with apprehension
glimmering in her beautiful eyes.

But as soon as she saw Anne in his arms, anger and jealousy took over.

What was more, she was wearing Kevin's coat.

At that sight, Cherry's hate for Anne reached its peak. She hated the kidnappers too for not killing her
directly.

But she knew how to hide her true emotions in front of Kevin.



"Anne, are you okay? I was really scared when I heard what happened."

Cherry's eyes were filled with anxiety and worry. If Anne hadn't seen Cherry's true colors, she would
have thought that she was really worried about her.

"I'm fine. Thank you for your concern." Her expression was indifferent and her words emotionless.

"That's good. That's good. You must have freaked out today. Let me help you back to your room."

Annoyed by seeing Anne leaning on Kevin, Cherry extended her hand to help her get down.

"Ouch, it hurts!" As soon as her feet touched the ground, Anne cried out in pain.

"What's wrong? Does it still hurt?" Kevin held Anne's arm delicately. There was an imperceptible tone
of concern in his voice.

He couldn't help but feel a little guilty at the thought of her pain.

"Hmm. It seems to hurt more than before!"

Looking at Anne's pained expression, Kevin felt a sting in his heart. He scurried to hold her up again.

"I'll send you back to your room first, and then ask Sam to check on you later."

As if he had forgotten Cherry's existence altogether, Kevin headed upstairs with Anne in his arms.

As they walked past Cherry, Anne gave her a complacent look.

She always pretended to be innocent, kind and sensible in front of Kevin, but she could be very wicked
in private.



Kevin was not worried about her, but Anne wanted to give Cherry a dose of her own medicine even if
that meant using the pregnancy to her advantage.

Under Anne's provocative gaze, Cherry felt anger bubbling up inside of her with no way out. All she
could do was glare at her fiercely.

'Anne, just wait and see. How dare you play tricks on me? I will make you suffer.'

Despite her rage, Cherry wanted Kevin to see how considerate and concerned she was about Anne's
safety, so she swallowed her feelings and followed them upstairs.

"Get some rest,"

Kevin said in an indifferent tone after putting Anne on the bed carefully.

Without the warmth of his arms, Anne felt a gust of gelid wind rip through her heart. How she wished
she could stay enveloped in his embrace for a longer time.

"Kevin, go take a hot shower first. Your clothes are dirty. I'll take care of Anne here. Don't worry."

Walking gracefully to him, Cherry gently wiped the sweat off his forehead with tenderness in her bright
eyes.

"Okay. I'll see you after I take a shower, honey..."

After stamping a quick kiss on Cherry's smooth forehead, Kevin turned around and left.

At the sight of their public display of affection, Anne kept a cold expression on her face. She was
already used to the two of them deliberately flirting in front of her.

After Kevin left, the smile disappeared from Cherry's face giving way to a gloomy glare.



"Why was Kevin carrying you and why were you wearing his coat?"

Her questioning voice was no longer as gentle and kind as it was in front of Kevin. Now, bitterness and
coldness were spreading across her beautiful and delicate features.

"Why should I answer your questions? Who do you think you are?" Anne replied, looking at her with
disdain.

She didn't have to pretend anymore now that Cherry had showed her true colors.

"You! Anne, I tell you, no matter what tricks you use, Kevin won't like you. He will only hate you more!"

Anne was speechless. Cherry's face was distorted with rage and her words were meaner than before.

"You are the one who played tricks. You pushed Ruth, but you framed me. If Kevin gets to know the
truth one day, do you think he will still like a vicious woman like you?"

Her eyes brimmed with anger, her tone cold as ice.

Flustered for a moment by Anne's attempt to expose the truth, Cherry quickly composed herself and
sneered.

"Even if you tell Kevin, do you think he will believe you? He will only think that you are even more
vicious if you're capable of blaming your own cousin!"

Cherry smirked with arrogance. She didn't care if Anne had told Kevin.

Because she knew that he had already labeled Anne as a wicked woman. No matter what she said, he
would not believe it.



Anne threw a cold glare at Cherry, her eyes full of hatred. She had been set up again and again, so
that Kevin would think she was a vicious woman.

'Sooner or later he will know the truth!'

Anne swore to herself that she would clear her name one day. She wouldn't take the blame for the rest
of her life!

"Then I'll wait and see. I'm afraid that before Kevin believes you, he will have already kicked you out.
Ha-ha!"

Cherry was not afraid of such thing at all because she would not let it happen.

"Before I am driven out of the door, you are only a mistress who is despised by everyone!" Not to be
outdone, Anne fought back with tenacity.

No matter how much Kevin loved Cherry, as long as Anne didn't divorce him, Cherry would always be a
shameful mistress who couldn't get Kevin's body.

"Who is the mistress?" She pointed at Anne angrily with hatred in her beautiful eyes.

"What are you if you are not a mistress?" The mocking smile at the corners of Anne's mouth was
glaring.

"Anne! Don't be so confident. As soon as you give birth to the baby, Kevin will kick you out!"

Suppressing her anger, Cherry replied to Anne's deliberate provocation with a complacent look.

As soon as Kevin's child was born, Anne would be kicked out of the house, and Cherry would become
his wife.

Staring coldly into Cherry's smug expression, Anne clenched her fists furiously.



Half an hour later, Kevin came back from his shower. As he entered the room, Cherry sat beside Anne
and put on a worried expression.

"Cherry, let's go. You have taken care of her for a long time. You must be tired."

Kevin approached her and wrapped his arms around her pitifully.

"It's okay. I'm not tired. Anne must be frightened by what has happened to her today. It's my duty to
take care of her,"

Cherry said considerately with a content smile on her face, while giving Anne a provocative sideways
glance.

"It's okay as long as the baby is fine. Don't worry about the rest." Kevin's tone was ruthless as he cast a
cold glance at Anne.

"Kevin, how can you say that? After all, Anne is my cousin. How can we leave her alone?"

Cherry pouted and looked at Kevin with discontent. It was indeed a blame coming out of her mouth, but
it sounded like she was sincerely worried.

Looking unmoved by her deceitfulness, Anne kept her disdain to herself. She had to admit that
Cherry's acting skills were really extraordinary. No wonder Kevin was obsessed with her.

"A vicious woman like her is not qualified to be your cousin!" He snorted and turned his gaze back to
Anne with contempt.
