Renewal Of Love

Chapter 67 You Have No Right To Say No

Even though Anne knew that she was going to be separated from the baby as soon as she gave birth,

that didn't stop her from loving the baby anyway.

"Don't worry. I won't go back on my promise," she said lightly as she lowered her gaze.

Distress filled Kevin's chest upon hearing this. He wanted to say something to comfort her but for some

reason, he couldn't bring himself to.

What was he doing? How could he suddenly have compassion for her? Was he forgetting how

despicable she truly was? She was probably only saying that to further whatever her motives were.

Kevin pulled a long face at the thought of this as he started the car wordlessly.

When they arrived at the villa, he pulled over the car in front of the gate.

"Get off. I'm going to park the car."

Anne shot him a sidelong glance before quickly getting off. Now that she wasn't anywhere near him,

she felt much more relaxed now.

At that moment, it just so happened that Cherry had been waiting outside for Kevin to come home. She

saw the exact moment that Anne had gotten out of the car.

Anger rose in her like a tide. Why did Anne get out of Kevin's car? She was probably seducing Kevin

again!

Smoldering in fury, she strode towards Anne.

Anne could instantly tell that Cherry was fuming so she walked past her, intending to ignore her.

However, Cherry wasn't going to let her go just that easily.

"Stop!" Cherry shouted to Anne's back, her eyes full of hostility.

Anne stopped in her tracks, a cold look on her face. She was also furious in her heart.

"What's up?" She looked at Cherry icily, her tone emotionless.

"Why did you get out of Kevin's car just now? What did you do to seduce Kevin again?" Cherry

accused, eyes burning with rage.

"Do I owe you an explanation? What right do you have to question me?" Anne looked at Cherry with

disdain, her eyes even colder than Cherry's.

At the end of the day, she was still Kevin's wife while Cherry was nothing but a mistress. Cherry did not

have the right to talk to her like that.

As far as Cherry was concerned, only she occupied Kevin's heart. Anne was the one who destroyed

her relationship with him.

"I have all the right in the world. The minute you and Kevin divorce, he'll marry me. You should know

that better than anyone," Cherry said haughtily.

"Then talk to me again when you're Kevin's wife already. Before that happens, you're still nothing."

Anne glowered at Cherry. What irked her the most was how smug Cherry was. It was like a thorn that

pricked her heart.

Anne's relationship with Kevin had only become the mess it was now because of Cherry. If it weren't for

her, maybe things would be different.

"Anne, I'm warning you. You better stay away from Kevin. He's mine."

Since Cherry didn't win Kevin over by fair means, she was constantly worried that he would be taken

away from her. From the very beginning, she could tell that Kevin treated Anne differently. That was

precisely why she sabotaged Anne so that Kevin would hate her.

Just as Anne was about to retort, she saw Kevin approaching them. She knew that if she said

something, Kevin would only take Cherry's side so she shut her mouth.

"Cherry, what are you doing here? What are you two talking about?" Kevin frowned slightly as he

looked back and forth between the two.

"Kevin, I was waiting for you. I saw Anne was here already so I decided to chat with her."

Cherry walked towards Kevin and grabbed his arm lovingly.

He glanced at Cherry's hands that were wrapped around his arm as a hint of irritation flashed through

his eyes. He didn't like it when she was so close to him. Nonetheless, he wore a gentle smile on his

face.

"Really? Just a friendly chat? She wasn't mean to you?"

It seemed as if whenever Anne and Cherry interacted with each other, it always ended badly with

Cherry being mistreated.

Upon hearing this, Anne couldn't help but wonder just how Kevin saw her. Did he really think she was

that horrible? Was he so scared that she would do something to his precious Cherry?

Kevin's seeming concern was not lost on Cherry as she cast a knowing glance at Anne, viciousness

burning in her eyes.

"No, I was just trying to have a casual chat with her but it looks she doesn't want to talk to me,"

Cherry muttered, lowering her head as a way to feign disappointment.

Anne swallowed her frustration. It was obvious that Cherry was trying to, once again, get on Kevin's

side by passively badmouthing her.

She fixed her cold gaze on Kevin, awaiting his response.

Cherry was the apple of Kevin's eye. He would protect her no matter what especially from Anne. So it

shouldn't come as a surprise that as soon as he heard this, he scowled at Anne.

"If she doesn't want to talk to you then just ignore her. She doesn't deserve to talk to you anyway."

Kevin's tone oozed of disdain and arrogance, a sharp contrast to Anne's humble manner.

A sneer escaped Anne's mouth—she'd already expected this.

"Kevin, you shouldn't talk like that. That's not a very nice thing to say in front of Anne."

Cherry smirked to herself when she saw the contempt in Kevin's eyes. It seemed as if she had nothing

to worry about after all—Kevin still hated Anne.

She purposely sported a dissatisfied look as she gently rubbed Kevin's shoulder. However, to Kevin,

this rubbed off a different way—he felt like he was being seduced.

A woman as lovely as Cherry would no doubt be able to attract any man to protect her and Kevin was

no exception. He quickly planted a soft kiss on her face as he said gently,

"Cherry, you're too kind. That's why people tend to take advantage of you."

At the thought of what Anne had done to hurt Cherry, his hatred for Anne intensified.

Tears welled up in Anne's eyes as she watched the intimate scene between the two. She couldn't help

but look away.

She couldn't stand it anymore. She turned around and left.

"Where are you going?" She'd barely taken two steps when she heard Kevin's cold voice come from

behind her. She stopped cold in her tracks.

"Go back to your room and rest." Without looking back, Anne stalked off.

"Did I dismiss you already?"

Kevin's tone was stone cold. Needless to say, he didn't like that Anne was so calm despite the fact that

he and Cherry were overtly being intimate right in front of her very eyes.

Confusion surged inside him. He hated Anne to her very core and was very clear what kind of person

she was, but he couldn't help but be drawn towards her.

Anne stopped again, balling her hands into fists to suppress her anger.

Cherry wasn't amiss to all this—she too had noticed Kevin's strange behavior that seemed to pop up

every now and then. She raised her head and shot Kevin a suspicious look. While he was always cold

towards Anne, he still inadvertently showed his concern for her.

Worried as Cherry was, she couldn't figure out how Kevin truly felt about Anne. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

"Anything else?" Anne said indifferently as she turned to Kevin, rage pulsing through her veins.

"What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear what Cherry just said? Who are you to ignore her? Why aren't

you answering her question?"

Kevin looked at Anne with displeasure written across his face. It took all he had to not hit Anne and get

rid of that arrogant expression on her face.

"Kevin, you're taking this too far. Don't I have the right to choose when I want to talk or not? You love

Cherry because she's important to you but that doesn't mean that I feel the same way. Why should I

treat her the way you do? Am I obliged to do that?"

Anne spat. This was the first time that she had snapped at Kevin. She couldn't stand it any longer.

She'd been trying to hold herself back for the longest time but this was the final straw.

Kevin seemed taken aback that Anne would raise her voice at him. The surprise on his face was

quickly replaced with anger.

"Anne! You have no right to say no in this family!"

Kevin strode towards Anne, his aura domineering. How dare she yell at him? Was she trying to get

herself in trouble?

No woman had ever spoken to him like that—not even Cherry.

"Kevin, watch yourself!"

Anne's eyes glinted as resentment festered inside her. She was slightly trembling, not knowing if it was

out of anger or sadness.

Cherry sneered as she watched the dispute between the two. There was no doubt in her mind that

Anne was trying to provoke Kevin. Since Kevin hated being disrespected the most, he was instantly

triggered by Anne's attitude.

"Let it go, Kevin. Don't make things difficult for her. She's pregnant. You shouldn't be fighting with her.

Even if you don't care about her, you should at least think about the baby,"

Cherry said calmly as she approached Kevin, pretending to be diplomatic.

She seemed anxious but Anne could see right through her pretentiousness.

Anne glared at her. She couldn't believe such a scheming and hypocritical person could exist!
