"Anne, what are you talking about? I really care about you. How can you talk to me like that?" Cherry's
eyes showed a hint of anger but the dejection in them was felt the most. Well, that was how she had
always been. She used to play the role of a victim.
She looked at Anne from top to toe. She felt a little disappointed while seeing Anne standing in front of
her safe and sound, wearing her usual self-composed facial expression. How could she possibly
survive after being hit like that?
Cherry had taken a huge risk to carry out the plan. Now all her efforts seemed futile, because no matter
what she did, nothing had ever worked out in the end.
"Care? I think what you really cared about is whether something had happened to my child, and if your
vicious plan had succeeded or not," Anne said derisively.
Cherry's look was filled with hypocrisy. She was the one who was vicious all this time, not Anne. She
was an angel with a rotten heart who always pretended to be kind in front of everyone. Anne couldn't
help but wonder if Kevin was blind or just a stupid man, because he hadn't seen Cherry's true colors for
such a long time.
"Anne, you have to be responsible for what you said. If Kevin knew that you treated me like this, he will
definitely stand up for me!" Cherry was speechless for a moment and stared at Anne with anger in her
eyes.
Anne was getting bolder as time passed by. Before, as long as Kevin was mentioned, she wouldn't
dare to make trouble again. But now, she didn't care for anyone anymore nor fear what they were
capable of.
Cherry had always used Kevin to suppress Anne, but not all things were meant to work all the time. It
didn't work on Anne now. She was tougher and wiser than Cherry used to know.
"Then go and tell him now. You'd better let him kick me out of here."
Anne was more eager than ever to exasperate Kevin. If she would really be banished by him, she
would totally feel happy. Who wouldn't want freedom from Kevin and Cherry whose cruelty couldn't be
compared to anything worse in this world?
"Don't even think about leaving here!" Suddenly, a cold voice came in. Kevin strode towards Anne and
glared at her.
This damn woman still wanted to leave here. It seemed that she really didn't take his words seriously.
Anne was a bit surprised of Kevin's sudden appearance and she couldn't help but wonder when he had
come back.
"Listen Anne, you are my woman. Wherever I ask you to be, you have to be there. Do you
understand?"
Kevin's slender fingers raised Anne's chin. He acted like he was in full control of her life and there was
no way for her to escape.
Anne was completely worthless in his eyes. He would never treat her like how a delicate woman should
be treated. To him, she was nothing but a piece of trash which he could throw anytime he wanted.
"I'm not feeling well recently. I want to stay in Sam's house for a few days. If you don't want something
bad to happen to the baby inside me, you'd better not refuse,"
Anne said coldly and turned around.
She didn't want to stay in this villa any longer. It was beyond torment to deal with these inconsiderate
people every now and then.
"Sam? Do you think I will give you a chance to see that man again?"
Kevin looked at her ruthlessly, he was burning with anger when she mentioned that name.
'Damn it, it sucks to hear her think of another man. Did she completely forget that I'm her husband?'
"What do you mean by that?" Anne didn't understand what he meant. Looking at how arbitrary of a
person he was, she had a bad feeling.
"You are not allowed to see him before the divorce. Do you understand?"
Kevin sneered, with a look of arrogance and disdain on his face. He was totally unreasonable over this
matter. He was always imperious towards Anne, making sure that everything about her was under his
control.
"Kevin, what right do you have to decide on me? How could you restrict me from seeing someone?"
Anne already had to endure Cherry and Kevin every day. This was a proof of how tough she really was,
but this was already too much. The two had already gone too far. She could no longer endure.
"What right? Because I am Kevin Fu!"
Kevin strode upstairs and completely ignored the anger on Anne's face.
Anne glared at his back as he went upstairs. She couldn't accept how arrogant and domineering this
man had always been.
She and Kevin were just in a contractual relationship. She was not his prisoner and he never had the
right to decide for her.
"Sam is my private doctor, yet you don't want me to see him until we get divorced. Do you really want
something bad to happen to the baby inside me?"
She had no choice but threaten Kevin with his baby. She knew that he only cared for the baby all this
time. Maybe he would come back to his senses and reconsider her request for their own child.
However, Anne might have underestimated this man. She almost forgot that this man was
incomparably ruthless.
He slowly turned around and smiled mockingly. What he said made Anne lose the only hope she had.
"I've arranged another private doctor for you. The doctor will be here tonight. Don't worry about the
baby's safety."
Kevin seemed to have done everything according to plan. He knew that Anne would come to an extent
of using their child's safety to threaten him, so he had to be wiser.
Anne clenched her fists and looked at Kevin with hatred. This man had become more ruthless to her.
Cherry had been silently listening to the argument of the two. Although she wanted Kevin to be ruthless
to Anne, she was not satisfied of what she had witnessed. She was worried that Kevin would keep
Anne by his side for a longer period of time.
Though the way he talked to Anne showed that he was heartless, he seemed to have no plans of
letting her go.
Cherry felt anxious of how the man he loved had changed. Kevin was not like this before. He would
never care for Anne just like now.
"Have you heard what Kevin said just now? Just stay here to nourish the fetus. Don't do anything out of
line, or you will have a hard time,"
Cherry reminded her coldly as she raised her slender hand, and looked at her newly manicured nails.
"What I'm doing is none of your business. You'd better focus on your own and pray for yourself. You'd
better not let Kevin know what you have done. Otherwise, that luxurious life of yours will end up in
misery."
Anne didn't hold back her disgust to Cherry. She couldn't let this woman humiliate her again.
She knew Kevin at least. He couldn't bear to be cheated by women. Based on how arrogant he was, he
would surely made every woman who would dare to cheat on her suffer. However, he was still deluded
by the angelic character that Cherry pretended to be. When he saw her true colors one day, he would
replace her blissful life with suffering.
"You!" Once again, Cherry's weakness was caught by Anne. She got really upset and her eyes were
filled with hatred for Anne.
"Cherry, I'm warning you, don't you dare try to hurt my baby again or else I will put you to a place you
deserve to be in!"
Anne sounded threatening.
Though she didn't want to invite trouble before the divorce, she would never tolerate anyone who would
dare to hurt her baby. She would surely come to the extent of being capable of something she had
never expected herself to do.
After saying that, she went upstairs and left Cherry no chance to speak.
Cherry stared at Anne wickedly. She couldn't bear Anne's unusual attitude towards her. She already
had the guts to voice out.
As soon as Anne went back to her room, she felt worried about the baby inside her. She promised
herself that she would do anything in order to protect her child. That day, she didn't do anything
because of the fear that too much exhaustion might affect her baby.
After reading a book, she fell asleep.
She dreamt of someone who was gently touching her face. It was a touch she had always longed for.
In that dream, Kevin doted on her and their baby more. They lived happily together, without the ruthless
Cherry who had manipulated Kevin and framed her before.
It was a wonderful dream. Anne never wanted to wake up, she wished that her dream would come into
reality.
But in the end, it was just a dream, made to disappear when someone had already awakened.
The reason why she woke up was that she was hungry. She didn't want to see the faces of Kevin and
Cherry, so she didn't go downstairs for dinner, but she couldn't hold her hunger any longer.
She slowly opened her eyes and breathed heavily. She asked herself, since when did her life turn so
miserable?
"Are you hungry?"
A familiar male voice was suddenly heard in the room.
Anne looked at the man who just spoke. Since the light was off, she hardly recognized that it was
Kevin. At first, she was a bit frightened when she heard the voice.
It took a moment for her to calm down. She looked at him coldly and spoke in a cold manner,
"What are you doing in my room in the middle of the night? Do you want to see if I'm dead or not?"
All of a sudden, she remembered what Kevin's assistant had said before, and her heart was quickly
filled with anger.
"If you really die, I will bury you well for the sake of our marriage!"
At first, Anne thought that he was just being ironic and mean, but his words were really sharp. She
wished she could kill him instantly.
"What are you doing in my room at this late hour?" Anne knew that she would not win over a narrow-
minded person like Kevin, so she just decided to remain calm.
This man was really unpredictable. What came into his mind to bother him at this time? Why would he
pop out in her room in the middle of night to frighten her?
"Go downstairs for the meal!" Kevin didn't answer her question and stood up after he said these words
shortly.
He would never show her how much he really cared. Most of all, she would never know the reason as
to why he came into her room at that time. When he had seen her sleeping so soundly earlier, he was a
little reluctant to leave.
