Chapter 97 Compromise
When Anne walked towards Kevin, he grinned jauntily and whispered in her ear in a low attractive
voice, NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
"Anne, I suggest you not to go against me, because you don't have the qualification."
Kevin's arrogant tone conveyed disdain. It must be a piece of cake for him to get any woman he
wanted.
Anne clenched her fist and tried to hold back her anger. She knew that in this man's eyes, she was
nothing but someone he could just play with. He would never take her seriously and that was an
absolute reality.
"Kevin, it's getting late. Let's get in the car."
Cherry didn't want him to give much attention to Anne, so she held his arm tightly and tried to get his
attention.
"Okay, get in the car." Kevin smiled sweetly and opened the door for her. He was always a gentleman
to Cherry.
Sitting silently at the back seat, Anne looked at Cherry's hand that was holding Kevin's. She felt a little
sad for herself. Thinking of how Kevin treated her just now, she was very upset.
When they arrived at the cinema, the director and the staff were already waiting outside. As soon as
they saw Kevin's car, they rushed over to welcome him, as if he was a celebrity.
"Mr. Kevin, we're glad that you are finally here. We have prepared everything well for you," The director
said respectfully and looked at Kevin with a dazzling eyes.
"Okay," Kevin replied coldly without even laying his eyes to the director.
"Mr. Kevin, what can I do for you? I'll send someone to prepare whatever you need." The director still
tried to catch Kevin up as he walked away from him.
"None, thanks." Holding Cherry's hand, Kevin proceeded into the cinema and completely ignored the
director.
Anne felt like she was some kind of a third wheel as she followed behind the two.
When they came in the cinema room, Anne sat behind Kevin and Cherry. She didn't want to keep a
close distance to them.
"Anne, why are you sitting so far away? Do I look like I'm gonna eat you?" Kevin turned to Anne who
was behind him and spoke in an irritated tone.
He could clearly sense that this woman was deliberately distancing herself from him since the moment
they arrived at the cinema.
"I'm afraid that I might ruin the moment between you two." After casting a glance at Kevin, Anne shifted
her gaze to the screen.
"Sit in the front!" Kevin said indignantly and pointed at the seat beside him.
"I don't want!" Anne retorted without hesitation.
Kevin's face darkened when she rejected him. This woman did nothing but refuse him over and over.
"Anne!" Kevin blustered and looked at her sharply. Anne clearly felt the tension in the air.
Cherry rolled her eyes on the two. Anne already ruined her moment with Kevin. Although he held her in
his arms, his attention was all drawn to Anne.
"Kevin, don't force her anymore. She had always wanted to be alone, just let her be."
She didn't want to let Anne seat beside Kevin because he would just turn his attention to her even
more.
Hearing Cherry's words, Kevin just furrowed his eyebrows and averted his eyes. He seemed to have
given up.
"Well, let's begin!" Kevin raised his hand and ordered the attendant to play the movie. Afterwards, he
made himself comfortable and put his arm on Cherry's shoulder.
Anne looked at the wide screen quietly and tried to ignore the couple in front of her.
However, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't help but look at them. She would never enjoy a
movie with these people.
Cherry took a popcorn from the bucket and offered it to Kevin intimately. He smiled and kissed her.
Anne tried so much to ignore them, but they were so insensitive to display their affection knowing that
she was behind them.
"Kevin, don't do this. Anne is still here,"
Cherry talked as if she was shy for what Kevin just did in front of Anne. However, Anne would never be
deceived by those hypocritical looks of Cherry. Of course she knew that Cherry loved how Kevin
displayed his affection.
Ignoring such provocation of Cherry, Anne just shifted her eyes to the wide screen and continued
watching.
She doubted whether Kevin just made out with Cherry because he didn't care about her presence at
all, or he really did it on purpose.
"Why are you still sitting there? Get out of here!" Kevin said in a rude tone. The displeasure on his face
was obvious.
Anne looked at him in shock. He regretted that she had come with them. She had too much and
couldn't stand for more. This man was so foolish to restrict her from seeing other men when it was him
who kept on doing such thing.
"I'll wait for you outside,"
Anne tried to sound calm and stood up. She kept telling herself that he was not worthy of her emotions
and that she shouldn't be sad over him.
But her heart was aching. She didn't deserve such kind of treatment. She immediately left as soon as
the tears fell down her face.
Cherry smiled evilly while staring at Anne walk away. In her mind, Anne definitely deserved it. She felt
so much satisfaction in her heart now that Kevin finally let the woman leave.
"Kevin, Anne has left,"
Cherry reminded him as she turned her head to him. Her blushing cheeks and her expectant eyes
clearly showed what was on her mind.
However, to Kevin, what he did with Cherry was only a show. Now that Anne had left, he was in no
mood to continue the show. He took back his hand from Cherry's waist.
"Without that annoying woman, we can now watch a movie peacefully," he said.
Cherry frowned when she felt the coldness in Kevin. She was obviously confused.
Did he still care for Anne? Did he do it on purpose to make Anne jealous and see if she was affected or
not?
A random thought flashed in her mind, and she felt furious. It turned out that Kevin did it not because of
his admiration towards her, but to attest Anne's feelings.
"Kevin…"
Cherry looked at him with resentment. She would never be willing to be used by him, especially to get
Anne's attention.
"Cherry, didn't you say that you wanted to see the Iron Man? It's starting at this time."
Kevin interrupted what she was about to say and changed the topic. As usual, he was not in the mood
to explain to her.
Noticing his impatience made Cherry feel a little more sad, but she just stayed silent.
The sky was already gray when Anne walked out of the cinema, as if it was about to rain in no time.
The cold wind blew which made her shiver.
Thinking of the cold and disgusted look in Kevin's eyes, Anne felt downhearted as if she had lost the
only hope in her heart.
Two hours have passed, but Kevin and Cherry hadn't come out yet. She felt really cold this time. If she
waited outside a little longer, she would most probably get sick.
The staff of the cinema looked at Anne expressionlessly. No one accommodated her, because they
didn't know her relationship with Kevin. It was always Cherry who was with him, so they didn't show
high respect towards her.
Finally, Kevin came out with Cherry in his arms. When he saw Anne shivering in the cold wind, his eyes
widened.
"Anne, are you an idiot? Why didn't you wait in the lounge?"
He doubted if this woman was a fool. It was cold, yet she still stayed outside.
"I don't know where the lounge is," Anne said in a low voice. She felt cold all over and had no strength
to argue with him.
In fact, she wanted to wait in the car, but it was locked. The key of the car was with Kevin. However,
she didn't dare to tell him about it. She would be asking for trouble if she went inside and disturbed
their intimate moment again.
She had thought that Kevin would let it go, but the next thing that happened was out of her expectation.
His cold eyes shifted to the attendants at the door.
"My woman has been standing outside for three hours and this is how you take care of her!"
His stare could almost kill the attendants on the spot. He was so furious of the fact that Anne had stood
outside for such a long time considering that she was pregnant.
"Mr. Kevin… We apologize. It's our fault." Two attendants came towards Kevin to apologize. They
lowered their heads in fear.
"From now on, I don't want to see your faces here ever again!" Kevin said furiously and pointed at
them.
"Mr. Kevin… We know we were wrong. Please forgive us…" Kevin made the two attendants anxious.
They tried to please him but he was totally infuriated of what they had done.
"Fuck off! I'll give you three seconds!" Kevin ordered them impatiently, giving off a cold vibe.
"Kevin, this has nothing to do with them. Don't do this. This job is not easy for them."
Seeing that Kevin had made up his mind to fire the two attendants, Anne sympathized with them and
tried to convince him not to terminate them from their jobs.
They did nothing serious. It was too much for them to lose their jobs because of this matter.
"Anne, how dare you speak for others? Are you stupid? Why didn't you find a warm place to stay in?"
'This damn woman, she is freezing cold now, yet she still chose to stand for the people who have
neglected her despite noticing that she is pregnant. Was it really from her heart, or she was just
pretending to be kind?'
Anne was startled after being scolded by him. She even forgot to defend for the two attendants.
