Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 549 Marry Me (Part Two)

Kim's heart was crashing in his chest. However, he decided to be more cautious. He was afraid that this was a dream and that Anne would be gone if he woke up from it.

He couldn't let that happen. Kim didn't want to suffer heartbreak.

'Anne, have you agreed to marry me? Are you really willing to be my wife? I didn't mean what I said earlier. I would never hurt you.

You have blended with my heart and soul. I have tried forgetting you, but I can't imagine a life without you in it. You are the reason for my existence, ' Kim thought.

Anne was the reason why he got into a duel with Kevin. Fortunately, the latter didn't have the ability to kill him.

"All right," Kim finally said, concealing the happiness bubbling in his heart.

Anne shook her head and continued, "The company belongs to the Fu Family, which means it is my children's property. I hope you don't forget that."

Kim shook his head and laughed. "I'm not interested in the company!"

Anne nodded and left.

Tears streamed down her face.

'Kevin, where are you? I can't do this anymore. What do I do if you never come back to me?' The thought broke her heart all over again.

Meanwhile, to everyone's surprise, Kim stopped buying the shares of the AN Group. Sam, Rose, and the others called Anne to ask the reason for the sudden change in his mind. Anne didn't bother hiding

the truth from them. She explained what had happened.

Everyone was shocked to find out what Anne had done. They advised her not to marry Kim regardless of what the man did.

She couldn't marry a psychotic criminal like Kim even if Kevin had died.

Anne felt helpless. She had no choice but to agree to the man's request to save the company. There was still time before things got out of her hand. However, Anne couldn't tell when Kevin would return to her.

'I'm ready to face anything if you are by my side. But everything is difficult without you. Please come to me, Kevin. I can't do this anymore.'

Anne decided to go to the hospital and see Eddy before going home.

Although Eddy's condition had improved over time, she couldn't stop worrying about her son. She feared that something would happen to him. So she still kept him in the hospital, where there were doctors and nurses who could take care of him if something arose.

This was Anne's first visit to the hospital after returning to A City.

She peeked into the ward through the door and saw her son sitting quietly on the bed. There was an indescribable sorrow in his usually bright eyes. He was staring into the distance, lost in thought.

Her face turned ghastly pale as her heart ached at the sight.

The family didn't hide anything from Eddy. The boy knew that something had happened to Kevin.

Anne couldn't help but wonder if her son, too, believed that Kevin had died.

"Mom,"

Eddy's faint voice broke her reverie.

Anne looked up and met her son's worried eyes. She couldn't control herself anymore.

Tears streamed down her cheeks. The boy gulped and asked, "Mom, do you believe that Dad is dead?" The panic was evident in his voice. "Everyone's been telling that Dad has passed away, but I don't believe them. I only trust you, Mom. Has Dad left us?"

Anne shook her head fiercely and hugged Eddy. "No, honey! Your father is still alive, but we can't contact him. He will never leave us. He must be still alive!" Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

"Really?" "But even Grandma said..." Eddy croaked.

"Eddy!" Anne cupped Eddy's cheeks and stared into his eyes. "There are certain things in life that you cannot see but can only be felt with your heart. You have to trust your instincts sometimes. Don't you know your Dad? You have known him ever since you were born. Has he ever been irresponsible? Do you think he would stay away from us?"

Eddy shook his head and threw himself into Anne's arms. "Mom, you are right! We can't conclude things by merely seeing what is happening around us. I believe that Dad is still alive. He will come back to us!"

All they could do now was to pray for him to come back soon.

Anne rocked Eddy as if he were the last spark of hope. 'Kevin, we need you! Come back soon.'

In the meantime, Sam and Mark were still at the bottom of the cliff on Mount YS. The two looked exhausted. Dark circles rimmed their tired eyes.

The two had been searching for Kevin ever since he had gone missing.

"Kevin, where the hell are you? If you don't show up, Anne will marry Kim. Don't you know that the monster is trying to steal your wife?" Sam growled and threw a stone into the water. He couldn't stand it anymore.

His cries reverberated across the valley. The people searching for Kevin looked at Sam in surprise.

Sam rubbed his throbbing temples in frustration. He was desperate to find Kevin.

They had arrived at the bottom of the cliff, right after Kevin fell. But the man had disappeared without a trace. No one could vanish in lightning speed even if the current was fast.

No one could think where he might have gone. Why couldn't they find him?

"Sam, calm down!" Mark rubbed his shoulder comfortingly. "It is good that we haven't found out anything about him. The same happened to Colin, remember? Perhaps Kevin is still alive somewhere."

If they actually found something, and proved that he was really dead, that was the time when they would really be devastated.

But there was a shred of hope that made them believe that Kevin might be alive.

Sam craned his neck to look at the sky. The sun couldn't penetrate through the canopy of rocks and trees. The place was chilly as dense shadows enveloped them.

'Kevin, have you managed to escape the darkness? Are you in a bright place, waiting for us to find you?' thought Sam.
