Attracted By My Ex-wife Chapter 75 Kevin's Refusal

As Cherry felt Kevin's passion, her beautiful eyes twinkled with triumph. She realized that she had
crossed an invisible barrier and she was about to become his woman.

As long as Kevin slept with her, she would see to it that he would be completely infatuated with her.
And in that way Anne wouldn't stand a chance to be with him.

With these thoughts in her mind, Cherry doubled her efforts and fervently started removing her clothes,
so that Kevin could feel her sensuous body and lose himself in her.

Kevin felt Cherry's cool bare skin under his palms. His breathing grew faster in anticipation to make
Cherry his woman. Just as he was about to claim her, Anne's face suddenly flashed through his mind.

He felt as if someone splashed him with ice water. He was numb all over. He let go of Cherry who was
in his arms.

Cherry was shocked with Kevin's abruptness.

"Kevin, what's wrong?

Without Kevin to cover her, Cherry was almost naked.

Kevin couldn't look at Cherry's body anymore. He abruptly got out of bed and quickly put on his shirt.

"Cherry, it's late. I'm tired. Please go back to your room."

He was unable to understand what was happening to him. Anne's face popped out in his mind at the
critical moment. And he wouldn't be able to do anything knowing that the woman under him was Cherry
and not Anne.

Cherry was surprised with Kevin's words. Her eyes dimmed with unhappiness.



"Kevin, what's wrong with you? We were just about…"

Cherry being a woman, she was too shy to say the words out loud. However the message could be
read quite clearly in her beautiful eyes.

She could feel that he clearly wanted her, but she didn't expect him to stop at this very moment.

"Cherry, I always keep my word and I will do what I've promised Anne."

He brought up the agreement, because at the moment he couldn't think of any other excuse to refuse
Cherry.

"Kevin, I just want you. I want to be your woman now!"

She completely lost it when she heard Kevin take Anne's name. It was because of Anne. Again! She
was furious when she realized that Kevin could control his desire for her because of Anne and the
agreement.

She was trying to calm herself down, but she couldn't. Because she didn't believe Kevin stopped
himself for a mere agreement. Anne had to be the main reason for this change in his mood.

These thoughts running through Cherry's mind made her all the more desperate and unwilling to make
Kevin walk away from her so easily. She had to make him desperate for her and make him claim her.
Only then would she be at ease.

Without giving a second thought about her nakedness, Cherry quickly got out of bed and walked to
Kevin. She hugged him, making sure her entire body was pressed intimately to his.

However, Kevin who had calmed down by now, was sickened and annoyed by Cherry's behavior. He
could feel the beginnings of anger taking root, but he knew he couldn't lose his temper.



"Cherry, stop this. Go back to your room and get some rest. We'll talk about this later." Impatiently
Kevin unwrapped Cherry's arms from his body and pushed her away from him. He sounded so cold
and distant.

Cherry couldn't believe that Kevin pushed her away again. She looked at him with eyes filled with grief
and bitterness. Her beautiful eyes quickly filled with tears.

"Okay, I'll go…" She turned away dejectedly as if her world had come to an end. She picked up her
pajamas and started slowly putting them on. She felt as if they weighed a ton.

She sobbed quietly with tears running down her cheeks. Hearing her quiet sobs, Kevin was irritated
and felt a little bit guilty for his behavior towards her.

He couldn't help but refuse her, even though he knew it would make her sad.

"Cherry, I..."

He was unsure what to say to her. He wanted to say something to comfort her. But, somehow he knew
whatever he would say, it would only make her more sad.

"Kevin, you don't have to explain anything. Actually, I don't think I want to hear your explanation right
now."

Cherry was afraid that she would not be able to hear that Anne was the actual reason for Kevin
pushing her away. She did not want to accept it.

Without looking at Kevin, Cherry ran out of the bedroom, crying.

Once she reached her room, she slammed the door shut. She was furious. She was sure that the only
reason behind Kevin's change of behavior towards her was Anne. Somehow Anne was much more



important to him than she thought. The very thought of it made Cherry queasy to her very core. She
couldn't let this go on.

The morning sun was shining brightly in the room. Anne forgot to close the curtains before going to
sleep last night. She groaned and turned away from the glare of the sun. She tried to open her eyes,
but they felt as though her eyelids were stuck together. With a lot of effort and will power she tried to
open her eyes, but her strength failed her. She felt very weak.

Her mouth was dry and felt as if it was filled with cotton. Desperately in need of water, she struggled to
sit up. She walked slowly towards the table for a glass of water. She grabbed the glass, but the effort to
walk drained her of her remaining energy. Her body was shivering with weakness. The glass slipped
from her hand and shattered into pieces on the floor, moments before her legs gave way.

"Ah!"

Anne cried out in pain. A piece of broken glass pierced her slender palm. She tried to sit straight and
ended leaning against the leg of the table. The pain and all the blood made her sick to her stomach.
She tried to remove the glass piece, but it hurt too much. Sighing helplessly, she leaned her head back
and closed her eyes.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

All of a sudden the door opened and Kevin burst into Anne's bedroom. He looked quite worried. The
moment his eyes rested on Anne sitting on the floor, cradling her bloodied hand, he immediately rushed
to her side.

"What's going on? What did you do?" he questioned her anxiously looking at her bleeding hand. Then
he lifted her in his arms and gently placed her on the bed.



"Nothing serious. It was an accident. No big deal," Anne replied as if the incident was nothing to worry
about. She felt a flicker of happiness, when she saw the concern in Kevin's eyes.

She immediately doused the flicker of happiness and tried to gather herself. She wanted to hide behind
her veil of indifference and not show how Kevin actually made her feel. Because she did not want to
get hurt again by him.

"Your hand is bleeding. How can you say it is not a big deal? Can't you take care of yourself?"

Kevin was furious when he heard Anne make light of the accident. Didn't she care? Was she so
careless? Her hand was bleeding and definitely hurting like hell, yet she said it was fine. What was
going on in her mind?

Taking her hand gently, Kevin looked at the bleeding woman with a distressed expression in his pitch
black eyes.

"Wait here. I'll get the first aid kit."

He got up to leave the room. As he was nearing the door, Cherry walked in. Seeing Cherry in Anne's
room, Kevin frowned slightly, but continued to walk out of the room, without saying anything to her.

"Anne, what are you trying to do? Are you trying to gain Kevin's attention by hurting yourself so early in
the morning?"

Cherry inquired coldly seeing Anne's injured hand.

Anne frowned with displeasure at Cherry's question. Her face turned to stone. Cherry was an insidious
person, hence she felt that everyone was as insidious as her.

"Don't try to figure out what other people's intentions are with that insidious mind of yours. Not
everyone is as scheming and cunning as you!"



Anne retorted in a cold tone. She ignored Cherry. She was not feeling well. The pain in her hand had
multiplied threefold. And she didn't want to lower her standards as the same level as Cherry. Arguing
with that woman was undoubtedly like casting pearls before a swine. She was in absolutely no mood to
talk to Cherry.

"Really? Don't even bother to think that I don't know what you did to seduce Kevin. I know clearly what
happened between the two of you outside the villa last night. Kevin is mine! You cannot take him away
from me by playing your cheap tricks!"

The very thought of Kevin and Anne in an intimate scene outside the villa last night filled Cherry's entire
body with rage. Her beautiful eyes were filled with malice when she glared at Anne.

'How dare Anne try to take my man away from me? I will not spare her!' Cherry swore to herself.

"Are you spying on Kevin?!"

Anne frowned slightly and a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes. From what she knew, there was no
one around last night outside the villa. How did Cherry know what transpired between her and Kevin
last night? Would Kevin still thought that Cherry was a sweet and simple girl, if he came to know about
her?

Cherry panicked and began to feel guilty on hearing Anne's question. But she would not admit to it.

"I didn't! Anne, don't talk nonsense. Believe it or not, I will tell Kevin that you slandered me!"

Cherry glared at Anne angrily. The viciousness in her eyes was more obvious than before. If Anne
continued to stay here, sooner or later she would be a problem. She must find a clever way to drive
Anne away, without it coming to bite her in the behind.



Being hounded by Cherry, Anne was terribly unhappy and wanted to fight back, but at that very
moment Kevin returned to the bedroom with the first aid kit in his hand.

In the past, she had argued with Cherry in front of Kevin and she had suffered a lot in the bargain. Now,
she was no longer the naive girl that she was before. Life had taught her to be smart. The best way of
not being on the receiving end of Kevin's hurtful words was to merely not have a direct conflict with
Cherry. Moreover, Anne didn't want to pay any more attention to these matters now.

Anne was dizzy and the bleeding hand made matters worse. She shook her head to clear her thoughts
and tried to concentrate.

"I'll have to take the broken glass piece out first. It will hurt. Try to bear it." It was the first time that
Kevin had spoken to Anne in such gentle tones and not in the disgusted and cold way that he usually
spoke to her in.

Anne was surprised and she looked into his gentle eyes. Her heart grew tender. This was the very first
time that she had seen him speak to her so gently.

She continued to look at him blankly and was not sure whether she should be happy or sad.

Kevin gently held her hand in his and with the help of the tweezers he carefully removed the broken
glass from her palm. He checked her hand closely to see whether there were any stray pieces of glass.
He applied the antiseptic and gently blew on her hand, so that she shouldn't feel the sting of the
medicine. The entire time his eyes were filled with concern for her.

Looking at Kevin's love and tenderness towards Anne, Cherry was consumed with jealousy. She
couldn't stand it anymore, and that made her more angry and hostile towards Anne.

"Kevin, let me wrap the bandage for Anne,"



Cherry commented as she walked towards Kevin. She wanted to rip the gauze from his hands. She did
not want him to have any physical contact with Anne.

But Kevin refused, "No, that's okay. I'll do it."

Anne looked at Kevin in surprise. She couldn't understand what was happening. She didn't expect him
to refuse his sweetheart. The abrupt and cold way Kevin spoke to Cherry made Anne's heart throb a
bit. She desperately tried to be aloof and not be affected by it, but her cold heart seemed to be warming
up a bit.
