Attracted By My Ex-wife Chapter 227 In Danger

The sun shone surprisingly warm and bright, making most people feel uncomfortable. The light was
strong enough to pierce through the windows and every little crevice of buildings. Only when the
curtains were closed could the dazzling light be kept outside.

Eddy occasionally cried and screamed until he finally fell asleep. At this time, Anne could finally heave
a sigh of relief.

She was going to contact Mark and take Eddy with her. Selma hadn’t been here for three days, which
she thought was the best opportunity for her.

Mark suddenly called and when she answered the phone, only bad news came.

"Ian is currently abroad, apparently he met an enemy. And I don't know where he is now exactly. Anne,
looks like we need to do it ourselves," said Mark.

There was, quite naturally, a hint of hesitation in his voice.

When Anne heard about this, her heart sank and she began to worry about Ian’s safety.

"Is he okay?" Anne asked as a frown on her face deepened further.

Unfortunately, the answer was also uncertain. "I don’t know. His subordinates said that they’d last seen
him in France. But don’t worry, Ian is a legend. Once he was able to avoid a whole team of assassins
all by himself."

"I hope he’ll be fine," Anne said with a heavy heart.

"Well, for now, you take Eddy out. I’ve already booked a ticket to France. When we arrive, you should
go to Ian’s place first. Things will be easier from then on."



She couldn’t help but feel that it was out of place, but she eventually agreed to do what he said.

Meanwhile, in K Country…

In the darkness of the night, there were constant gunshot sounds from an abandoned residence. The
moon was strangely dim, making it difficult for one to see clearly what was happening. People could
only feel the cold wind blow through their whole being.

With his back against an old oil drum, Ian tried his absolute best to avoid making any noise.

He didn’t know where these people came from, but he had a definite idea who ordered them.

It was the plot of the XY Group. They wanted to maximize the benefits, and if they couldn’t make him
cooperate with them, they decided to try and bring him down.

However, what they didn't expect was that he reacted quickly and saw right through their tricks.

As long as he could survive tonight, his men would find him and these people would eventually be
caught.

His eyes were gloomy, and his expression stoic. His breath was cold that it almost faded into the night.

Feeling the tremor of the approaching footsteps, he kept his composure and didn't make even a slight
move. There were too many people coming one after another, so he couldn't guarantee what would
happen the moment his hideout was exposed. He resembled that of a hungry wolf waiting patiently in
the dark to grab its prey.

A small bottle rolled over. The man who rushed over was immediately alerted to the noise and shouted,
"Shit!"

His greedy eyes reflected in the darkness of the night.



Killing Ian would guarantee him a handful of riches, as stated in the secret contract. This was his one
and only chance, if he succeeded, he wouldn't have to go to work a day in his life.

He tried to run over to the bottle, but someone grabbed his neck from behind.

Ian was quick and ruthless. In a little less than ten seconds, the man could only struggle for a brief
moment and died almost immediately.

Considering that someone would be alerted of his presence if they saw a corpse, he grabbed the body
and hid it into a corner and covered it with whatever object he could find.

At this point, his eyes were filled with crimson light of fury.

He didn’t choose to be their enemy, but he also didn’t expect that there would always be someone out
there who wanted to bring him down this badly.

After all, he wasn’t just a regular businessman. He had been cleaning up after his father’s mess all
these years, and so his reputation was only known to those who knew how to keep it a secret. So
people who were reckless enough to challenge his authority kept appearing.

The night was gradually getting bright and the surroundings could be seen much easier.

He continued to hide in a dark corner and smiled with contempt when he saw that the people searching
for him had a joyful expression on their faces. What they didn’t know was that the situation just turned
to his favor and they ran out of luck.

Sure enough, the sound of gunshots suddenly came bursting out one wave after another.

His enemies fell to the ground one after another like dominoes. It all happened in an instant, and not
one of them ever had a chance to utter their last words.



"Boss, are you okay?" The man bringing the people to help him asked with such worry in his tone.

"I’m fine. Let’s move!" Ian could only maintain a serious look on his face.

The fact is that he didn’t want to kill anyone. It didn’t have to come into this if only he wasn’t in such a
position. But it happened anyway, and it had to be done.

"Boss, someone back home called and said that someone was going to France last night, but you
weren’t there."

Ian’s face suddenly darkened.

"Back home? Are you talking about Mark?"

All the people who were very close to Ian knew he had a good relationship with Mark, so most of his
subordinates knew him.

"Yes."

"Damn it!"

Ian immediately tried to contact his friend. But it was too late.

As soon as Mark arrived in France yesterday, Kevin got to him first and detained him.

"Shit!"

He clenched his fists and his eyes were filled with raging fury, but for now, there wasn’t anything that he
could do.

Back in A City.



One could see the scene outside the hotel, but could only see vague figures inside or nothing at all.

But even the soft light couldn’t hide the fiery expression on Kevin’s face.

He was wearing a pair of stark black suit. His expression remained cold but the look on his face
screamed a certain level of ruthlessness. At this point, he looked at Anne as if he was looking at a
stranger.

"Kevin, let me out!" Anne shouted at the top of her lungs.

"Why are you in such a hurry to leave my arms?" Kevin sarcastically asked.

He had been so good to her, but she was going to leave him and take the child with her. As the
president of the AN Group, he could tolerate that she was cold to him, but he couldn't bear to see her
leave him.

"What did you do with the baby?!" She asked with such worried look on her face. Kevin was a terrible,
terrible man now.

"I won’t do anything to the child. What you should be worried about is your work, because the M Group
will soon collapse," Kevin coldly replied.

He didn’t like Mark at all because he was too close to Anne.

However, he could bear it as long as Mark didn’t cross the line. He could bear out of his guilt for her
sake, but what he couldn’t bear was the fact that a guy like Mark had the audacity to leave with her.

"What are you gonna do with Mark? I’m the one you want. Leave him out of this! Kevin, I don’t care
what you do to me. Just please leave him out of this!" Anne pleaded.

But what she got as a response from him was nothing but a cold smile.



"It doesn’t matter if it’s for the child or yourself, it’s impossible for you to escape from me. Don’t waste
your time, Anne."

He then pushed the door open and walked out.

Meanwhile, Anne collapsed to the ground and wanted to try and contact Mark. But the line was always
busy, because he had to deal with a fake jewelry issue that suddenly appeared in the company.

Fortunately, Kevin didn’t restrict her freedom. He just took Eddy away from her.

As a result, Anne managed to arrive at the Claire Jewelry City soon.

Everyone was preoccupied. A handful of shops were closed in an undisclosed emergency reason,
which made a lot of people unhappy.

Seeing this scene and knowing that Kevin was responsible for it, she felt an overwhelming guilt.

"No, the stock market is collapsing. If it goes on like this, our company will go down the drain." Trey
looked at Mark with a cold and terrified look.

"Sorry, it’s all my fault!" Anne apologized. But Trey didn’t say anything.

Mark, however, simply comforted her, "It’s a regular thing. Don’t worry. We’ll prepare for the worst every
day now. It doesn’t matter."

Because of how Mark bravely handled it, she only felt even guiltier.

However, half a day later, all kinds of good news came, one after another. The paralyzed company had
been slowly repaired, including the loopholes in its financial aspect.

"What’s going on?" Mark confusingly asked.



Trey sifted through the data and showed that the numbers had risen again. The corners of his mouth
suddenly arched up and one could see how he was relieved. "We're alright. It's Ian who has come
back."

Beside Kevin, Ian was also a prominent figure in the business world.

He didn’t participate in the fight. Once he made his move, he rarely even meet his opponents.

"He’s fine." Even though Eddy wasn't with her, everyone else was safe. That was most likely the best
she could expect.

Ian was still in Paris manipulating domestic data. He didn’t expect Anne to be also worried about him.

Back at the AN Group, Kevin’s office was completely shut. Without a personal permission from him, no
one was allowed to enter. So no one knew what was going on inside.

Outside the office, there were several people trying to look inside from time to time. When they realized
that absolutely nothing could be seen, they pretended to give up and left casually.

They finally couldn’t bear to be in the dark and bravely asked Kevin’s assistant.

"Daniel, what's wrong with the CEO? Did we do something wrong?" someone asked.

It was an open secret to everyone that Kevin was sort of a pervert. Since Anne left the company about
a year and a half ago, he had become even more perverted, squeezing employees from time to time.

It was true that the company didn't work overtime as the rumors said, but the outsiders didn't know that
his standards were too high and he often gave everyone difficult tasks to be completed in a very short
period of time.



"No. Mr. Kevin is probably just in a bad mood recently. Just mind your own business. He won't make
things difficult for you," the assistant assured them.

After a short while, everyone dispersed and left. At this point, the assistant could only look outside with
a slight frown.

Inside the office, Kevin was sitting comfortably on the sofa with his legs bent. The laptop on his lap that
appeared to have a metallic color showed the data of the M Group.

His face was cold with fury. This time, he couldn’t wait to try and teach the M Group a lesson. They
could do anything, but he simply would never let it go when it came to Anne.

However, when he saw that everything he had carefully planned was slowly collapsing in front of him,
his eyes quickly turned sharp as if piercing anything that he locked his gaze on.

"I finally met my opponent."

About two hours later, he finally gave up his suppression on the M Group.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t defeat them, but that their opponent was a master. If they really wanted to put
up a fight, it would probably take a huge chunk of his precious time.

After a while, he uttered coldly, "I’ll let you go for the time being."
