Attracted By My Ex-wife Chapter 445 We Know The Truth (Part One)

Kevin's dark eyes locked with Anne's. They stared at each other silently. Their eyes conveyed volumes
to each other.

Back when the pistol was pointed at him, Anne had reacted instinctively and rushed forward,
disregarding her own safety. At this point, Kevin knew she wouldn't leave him alone and she was
determined to not let him get hurt.

His heart came to his throat when he saw her determined eyes. He suddenly felt he couldn't love this
woman enough.

"Anne, do you know? I really love you to the bone," Kevin whispered in Anne's ear.

Her face was a shade of flaming red. She glared at him but her flustered face made her look more
charming than imposing.

Kevin smiled roguishly in return before his gaze flickered towards Abel and his men. His face darkened.

"Abel, I don't have all day. If you want to fight me then bring it on." He challenged the group. His eyes
glinted dangerously. He didn't care anymore. He was done with them.

However, Abel and his men just shared perplexed and nervous glances with each other, no one daring
to take a step forward.

After all, everyone in their group knew how Abel's father got hurt. They were also aware of Kevin's high
status in the society. They were certain that if they hit Kevin then not only would they invite trouble but
also they wouldn't even get any compensation for it. On the contrary, Kevin might ask them to
compensate.

Therefore, there was no question of hitting Kevin.



Initially they had the upper hand and hitting Kevin would get them into a disadvantageous position.

Abel glared, the pain in his stomach and face increasing with each passing minute. However, the stick
in his hand remained still. He did not even dare to swing it towards Kevin.

He cursed under his breath.

"Aw, what a lovely scene," someone said from behind them and chuckled.

Kevin and Anne frowned when they looked at Kim. They weren't even surprised on seeing him there.
After getting off the plane, Kim had gone into hiding, leaving no trace behind. Seeing him at the hospital
wasn't shocking at all.

Abel and his men stiffened at Kim's arrival. Silence fell in the room. The men gave way to him as they
lowered their heads.

Noticing this, Kevin and Anne glanced at each other with a knowing smile.

Kim had just become the new CEO of AS Group. He had a long way to go in order to reach Kevin's
status. Yet Abel and his men were more scared of him than they were of Kevin.

'Something is definitely fishy, ' Anne thought.

"While the group is going through a crisis, the CEO of that group is busy fighting others. I have never
seen anything as ridiculous as this." Crossing his arms across his chest, Kim stared at Kevin intensely
before his lips quirked into a smile. His face suddenly lit up with a sudden realization. He said, "If I am
not mistaken, you are being asked to compensate for beating up an old man at W City, right?" His tone
held unmistakable mockery.

Kevin snorted before levelling his gaze at Kim. He said disdainfully, "I will advise you to mind your own
business like I am minding mine. Otherwise, you may fall in trouble."



Without sparing a second glance, he took hold of Anne's hand and walked out of the hospital room.

Abel and the others did not even dare to make a noise.

After leaving the hospital, Anne and Kevin returned to the hotel. Back in the hotel room, she voiced her
suspicion. "I think, Abel knew Kim beforehand which is why he was so scared when he saw him."

Kevin nodded, agreeing with Anne's observation. She further continued, "I also think that Abel is the
top dog in W City." Kevin hummed as he made coffee for both of them.

Kevin handed her a mug and she took it gratefully. One savory sip instantly relaxed her. The rich aroma
and the strong taste freshened her mind.

"I presume that Kim is the reason behind the condition of Abel's father. The sole purpose is to distract
us," Anne concluded.

Kevin agreed, "I think so too."

They finished their hot drinks in companionable silence. Both of them engrossed in thoughts.

'The 70-year-old man shouldn't have been beaten up like that. It's a sheer injustice.

Moreover the nurse had reported that Abel didn't respect that man very much. If it had been Abel
then...' Anne thought with a frown.

"Maybe we should speak with that old man," she voiced her thoughts.

They had seen that the old man had wanted to say something but he was in a dilemma.

Maybe he might not be a bad person, after all.



If the situation needed be, then they would help him in every possible way they could. Kevin had
donated funds in many nursing homes and they could shift the old man in one of them instead of
keeping him with Abel.

Kevin looked slightly reluctant but after a while, he nodded his assent.

Happy with Kevin's consent, Anne took out her phone and called the nurse. After confirming that Abel
had left, the two of them immediately went to the hospital.

When they arrived at the hospital, it was already late at night so the old man had fallen asleep. When
they came to know this, Anne and Kevin frowned at each other.

Under Anne's careful watch, the old man's health had recovered significantly. However, tonight, even in
his sleep, he looked pale.

It seemed that the man had suffered torture both physically and mentally in the past two days. Anne felt
twinge of sadness in her heart.

"Sir, wake up." Anne lightly patted on the man's arm, mindful not to startle him awake.

The man stirred slightly, before opening his eyes. He blinked at the pair blearily before rubbing his eyes
to see more clearly. When he saw Anne and Kevin, he asked groggily, "What time is
it?"
