Attracted By My Ex-wife Chapter 229 Let's Get Married

"Are you alright, Anne?" Ian was in a meeting that time but when he had learned that Anne already
went to see Ryan, on top of being familiar with Ryan's recent actions, he immediately dismissed the
meeting to look for Anne.

However, he didn't expect that the moment he saw Anne, his heart suddenly felt heavy and everything
outside couldn't arouse her interest.

"You can go out first. I just want to be alone right now," Anne replied in a heavy voice.

"Ryan is a scheming man." Ian frowned as he had remembered the things that Ryan had done.

"I'm really fine. It's just not a big deal for me," Anne said calmly.

"Anne. Please. Let's get married," Ian suddenly said with seriousness in his tone.

For the first time, Anne didn't know how to respond to him. She looked at his face, trying to read it if he
was just joking or he was genuine with his proposal.

"Let's get married. I know now's not the right time for stuff like that but I don't know if I'll ever get the
opportunity to ask you that. When I came back, you're already married to someone else. But if that man
can't make you happy, I hope to be the one who can."

His expression never changed the entire time he spoke because he knew that even if he was wrong,
he was still willing to stick to his own ideas and keep Anne happy.

He loved her so much. When he heard she was in trouble back home, he came back immediately
without even thinking.

He never even planned this. He proposed to her on the spur of the moment.



"What are you talking about?" Anne looked at him puzzled.

"I said I love you so much, even from the first time I met you. I want to be with you, not because I want
to use you to oppose Kevin, but because I know that you're the only one that I want to be with." He
finally spoke what he truly felt to her. It was also a way to help her solve her problems.

"Ian… I-I'm sorry. You're a good man and you shouldn't give up your own life just for me. You deserve
to be with someone better," Anne replied. Her tone felt unnatural.

"Sure, you may think that way but I know deep down that you're already the best, Anne. I want you to
be happy. I hope that I could protect you for the rest of my life. You don't have to rush this and refuse
me in a hurry. If you ever felt this is troublesome, you don't have to hesitate. Letting you be happy is
already my greatest wish."

With nothing else to say, Ian stood up and finally left the hotel. She sighed and looked at his lonely
receding figure as he walked away.

Meanwhile, in the Fu Family's house.

The entire estate was ghost-quiet.

Rose sat on the rattan swing as she stared outside with melancholy.

"Mrs. Rose, it's time for dinner. Shall we go back to the living room?" the servant said to her
respectfully.

Rose looked at the servant with forlorn eyes. "I don't want to eat. Please leave me for now."

"But the food will be cold soon. You better eat something, or else Mrs. Selma would be worried." The
servants were all concerned.



Even though that Rose was only engaged to Kevin and not yet married, everyone was already treating
her as if she was his actual wife.

"It's alright, you can leave now." Rose was getting a bit annoyed but she never showed her frustrations.

Although she had been taken good care by the Fu Family, she couldn't even see Kevin for most of the
time. The last time she saw him, he left in such a hurry.

"All right."

After the servants had left, Rose looked outside of the window again and went back to her sad
demeanor. At that moment, she started to reconsider whether it was really wrong for her to continue
her marriage with Kevin.

However, there were mistakes. Once she made a mistake, would she have the chance to go back and
fix it?

She felt powerless and annoyed at her current predicament, making her consider going out regardless
of what the servants said. She got into her car and left.

The road outside was barren. The setting sun intersected with the land in the horizon, giving her a
sense of desolation.

Rose turned the steering wheel steadily and looked straight ahead of the road. She felt a little happy
once she left the Fu Family's house. But, if Kevin was there, it would have been a different story.

"Why did you do this to me, Kevin?" Rose said in a sad tone.

She stopped the car at the side of the road. The only person there at the time was her. The setting sun
and the inevitable night accompanied her.



The end of the highway was already on the other side. There, the driver was focused on the road while
Trey and Mark were both sitting on the back of the vehicle.

"Trey, thanks for Ian, our problems are solved this time. What he's doing is like magic. He could flip the
situation in just a short time," Mark said as Trey attentively listened.

In fact, Anne was the one who they should be thanking for. Without her, perhaps Ian wouldn't be able to
come back at all.

"Well, he's really capable." Trey finally shifted his attention to the moving scenery outside.

After what transpired last time, the M Group could already consider themselves as the survivor of a
disaster. After a period of struggles, the two brothers were finally getting back on their feet.

Outside, the world felt distant, empty, and desolate but it made them feel a bit more relaxed. Looking at
the setting sun upon them, Trey gave a side face to Mark.

"Hey, wait a minute… Isn't that Kevin's new wife?" Trey asked them with uncertainty.

He wasn't one hundred percent sure as he only met Rose once.

"Yeah, I think it's her. Why the hell is she in here?" Mark replied as he stared at the target in confusion.

"Let's go there."

Leaning against the steering wheel, Rose looked at the men who were approaching her with a
disappointed expression.

"Good evening, Miss Rose. It's really you!"

A gentle voice came through. Rose wasn't in a conversational mood right now but she could tell that it
was Mark's voice.



"Yes, it's me. Hello, Mr. Mark." Rose forced a smile on her face.

"I heard you're pregnant now. Why are you out here all alone? You need to go back home quickly."
Mark advised.

At that time, Rose had some doubt within her. Mark heard her reply. "Mr. Mark, don't you blame me?"

She looked into the distance. "Many people will blame me for hurting Anne."

Although she didn't really care about it anymore, she still felt an unspeakable amount of depression.

"Well, everyone has their own choice. Maybe they just didn't know that they were wrong from the start."
Mark chose to tell her what he really thought of this matter.

"Of course, who would even know they're wrong from the beginning? It's too late now and I don't know
if the mistake occurred a long time ago or the fault was on this generation of Anne and me.

I still have something else to do today and it already getting late. Please be careful out there and stay
safe."

Maybe it was because of the warmth of his tone that made her a bit sadder once again. A moment
later, she had decided to go home as suggested.

A City was a place where business and celebrities gathered. It was also where news spread like a
virus. In the blink of an eye, the news of Anne's engagement to Ian had already spread far and wide.

Anne had a cold expression on her face.

"How's everything going? Aren't you nervous?" Ian walked closer to her and had a gentle smile on his
face.



The woman next to them suddenly screamed out loud. People never expected that Ian would look this
gorgeous whenever he smiled. Everyone was already jealous of the fact that Anne settled for Ian
instead of Kevin.

"I don't have to be nervous, it's just a press conference and nothing else." Anne presented herself like a
queen, all royal and dignified.

Anne's appearance amazed Ian. The girl in front of him was as stubborn as a mule but right now, she
looked mature and out of this world. This was the woman in his life and his Muse.

"Yes, I think I've underestimated you. The press conference is about to begin, let’s go."

Ian reached his hand out to her and had a faint yet sincere smile. Anne was stunned at first but then
relented and placed her hand on his.

They interlocked their hands together and walked out in the crowd at the same time.

Cameras and shutters kept on going off once they were in view. The screams of their fans were already
deafening. Anne was the queen of the event.

And the existence of Ian almost made them neglect other things.

In front of the roaring crowd, they both looked happy. Anne was stunned at the large and loud crowd
that she didn’t know how to properly respond.

When she was with Kevin whom she loved, she was blessed by no one. Now the blessings that she
was showered with seemed to mean nothing to her.

As the event went on, she gathered up all of the strength she had to calm herself down and answered
everyone's questions with a sweet smile.



Anne's face flashed on the huge TV screen for all to see.

Whenever she didn't smile, she had a cold yet queenly aura but when she did smile, she looked
precious and innocent.

Looking at her sweet smile, Kevin hurled the remote control out with great force.

He was in a towering rage and pounded his hand heavily on the table.

"You can’t escape from me, Anne."

The hotel bed was littered with rose petals and lily flowers which looked very beautiful just like her.

Most importantly, Anne didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Ian had asked someone to remove the pollen.

"Do you like it here? Anne was about to walk to the bed when Ian was suddenly behind her.

"It's already getting late, I'm going to bed," Anne replied unnaturally.

Ian approached her slowly, however. His breath made Anne a little bit worried.

"I-I'm sorry, Ian… It's just…"

Everything was already ready and in place but Anne wasn't prepared to do anything with Ian for
tonight.

"Anne, if you don't feel like doing it, I won't force you. I know you're still not ready to marry me. Please
have a good night's rest." He reached out his hand and touched her head slowly and affectionately.
