Chapter 24 Stay Away From Him

She watched the two indifferently. They came back to the sofa after eating. She quietly walked to the

courtyard and sat at the stone table nearby.

She didn't know when it got dark, but it did, and everything around her was indistinct. The lights in the

courtyard came on, one after another.

Anne started feeling chilly. She hadn't noticed it before. Maybe the lights had startled her out of her

reverie.

She sat there quietly, staring at the pool, lost in thought.

Bursts of laughter came from the room, but it seemed that Anne didn't hear them at all and didn't

respond either.

Emily had stayed outside with Anne, and felt uncomfortable. She turned her head to look at the hall,

and complained to Anne in whispers.

"Anne, it isn't worth it."

Her words threw Anne back to reality. Anne raised her head slightly and gave her a gentle look. "What

do you mean?"

"I meant exactly what I said. Sometimes, I really don't know what's best for you." Emily frowned and

continued, "Maybe you won't be so hurt if you just leave, but I know that's not what you want most."

Anne shook her head, her black eyes moist from tears.

She touched her baby and all the depression in her heart faded away.

It didn't matter. She still had the baby with her.

"There's no running away from this one. I don't care how Kevin treats me. As long as I get what I

deserve, it's worth it."

She didn't even want to believe it herself, but in the end, she convinced Emily, who was innocent as

she was. She nodded with a happy look.

"Well, I think you can have a happy life. I don't think Cherry will, however!"

What Emily said made Anne smile. She'd rather see Cherry get what she deserved.

Cherry knew she couldn't put it off any longer. She reluctantly left the East Mountain Villa. When she

left, she heard Kevin say that he was going to spend the night there, so she lost her temper again.

But how could Cherry disobey Kevin? As far as Kevin was concerned, Cherry had always been

considerate and kind-hearted. He thought Cherry wouldn't mind if he just stayed for the night.

Cherry was no fool. She wouldn't ruin her image in Kevin's heart by throwing a fit.

"Oh my God! Cherry left here alone?" Emily whispered, "Anne—"

"I know," Anne said with a cryptic smile, "Hey, it's late. You don't have to take care of me. Get some

sleep."

When she heard the footsteps behind her, she knew that Kevin still had something to say to her. In

other words, he wanted to continue hurting her.

Emily frowned and saw Kevin walking over. She felt worried.

As soon as she saw Kevin, she ran over all the things in her mind that could happen, that he could say.

All in all, she was worried about leaving Anne with Kevin.

"You sure you don't need me to stay here?"

"No, thanks." Anne turned her head to show her perfect, delicate profile. "Good night."

Her tone was so firm. Emily knew that Anne had her own thoughts on the matter, and didn't say

anything more. With a serious look at Anne's face, Emily left there.

When she passed Kevin, she clearly felt a chill.

All of a sudden, her heart sank. Maybe Sam could help out here.

After Emily left, only Anne and Kevin were in the yard.

Sitting on a bench by the pool, Anne wore a thin white dress. In the dark yellow light, she lowered her

head, looking quiet and beautiful.

Kevin looked at her and felt his heart grow soft.

But soon it was replaced by indifference.

"Do you have something to tell me?" All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

She finally spoke first, and her tone was still indifferent.

Kevin narrowed his eyes with a cold smile. "What do you think I want to say to you?"

With her eyes slightly lowered, a faint smile appeared at the corners of Anne's mouth. "How could I

know what you are thinking?"

"Anne, what kind of woman are you?"

At this point, even Kevin himself was stupefied. He didn't know why, but somehow he got the feeling

the woman near him wasn't as vicious as he thought. But what she had done was still vivid in his mind.

How could he forget?

"Ha-ha." Anne laughed off Kevin's question. "Shouldn't you know me best? I'm an evil woman, aren't

I?"

Staring at her stiffened back, he didn't respond.

Then Anne added, "Am I right? Or do you think evil isn't a strong enough word to describe me?"

She feared nothing. She knew she was impossible in Kelvin's eyes. Whether she said it aloud or not,

the result was the same.

Instead, she would feel much better if she did.

It was not her style to hide.

"I don't want to fight right now." Kevin's tone softened and so did his gaze as he looked at her. "It's cold

now. You'd better get to bed."

Anne didn't think Kevin would ever talk to her like that. Like he cared. She took a deep breath and

looked up at the man.

She didn't know what he was thinking. She didn't know why he said that.

Now, the only thing she was sure about was that she didn't know the man in front of her. She didn't

know if he was lying or not.

"Don't worry about me. I'll be in after a while."

Anne was not used to Kevin's attitude towards her. She'd prefer him being cold to her, as he was

always, or she would feel worse.

"No, you must go inside! Now!" Sure enough, this was the Kevin she knew. Cold, arrogant, used to

being obeyed. He did a 180 just now. His soft, caring expression had been replaced by a scowl.

Anne bit her lips. She knew that he couldn't hide his true self for even a minute.

"I don't want to fight either." Then Anne stood and walked inside.

Kevin followed her silently. After a few steps, he saw a familiar figure coming from the gate. His

expression changed. He wasn't happy to see Sam.

"Sam, you're back!"

When she saw Sam, Anne felt much better. She quickened her pace as she made her way towards

him.

"Yes, I'm back." Sam nodded. Although he was answering Anne's question, his gaze fell on Kevin's

face.

Kevin didn't look well. Sam asked calmly, "Why are you here?"

Sam knew full well such a question would annoy Kevin. Kevin pursed his lips into a straight line and

squinted his long, narrow eyes. "Is there a reason I shouldn't be?"

"No." Without saying anything more, Sam turned around, walked into the kitchen, and then put the food

he bought in the fridge. He had been out shopping the whole day to buy what he needed, hoping he

could make Anne eat something tomorrow.

"Where have you been?"

Seeing Sam putting things into the fridge, Kevin walked over and had a look. His slender body leaned

against the door. Sam's presence here doubtless made him feel uncomfortable.

"I was out shopping." Sam didn't stop what he was doing. He added in a deep voice, "Since Anne can't

eat anything, I bought some appetizers."

Sam's words made Kevin's face fall. He frowned and took a look at Sam. Then he took Anne's hand

and headed upstairs.

"Hey, what are you doing? Let go of me!"

Of course, Anne didn't like Kevin's rude behavior, and she didn't like being in the same room with him,

either.

After she was dragged into her room, Anne tried her best to break free from his grip.

"What's wrong with you?"

Yes, right now Kevin was acting like a lunatic. He lost his temper for no reason and always found a

reason to fight with her.

She didn't know what Kevin wanted to do!

"Anne, stay away from Sam!"

"What?" It was so strange. Anne looked up in disbelief. What did he think was going on between them?

He was the one who arranged for Sam to stay with her. What choice did she have?

"I told you to stay away from Sam!"

Kevin didn't know why he said that, which drove him crazy. All he did know was that he felt really

uncomfortable when he saw the way Sam's eyes fell on Anne. He started to tremble and tense up.

He was even angrier when he heard how easygoing Anne's tone was around Sam.

Maybe it was just as she said, he was mad, but he couldn't control himself.

He clenched his fists so hard that his fingertips turned pale. Looking at the flawless face in front of her,

she suddenly burst into laughter.

"Kevin, I think you're pathetic. Do you know that?"

"What did you say?" In an instant, Kevin stalked toward Anne. The next second, he pinched her chin

with his slender fingers. "Say that again!"

It was the first time that he had heard someone describe him as pathetic, and he would never allow

himself to be connected with such a word.

This woman was testing his limits.

"You're so pathetic!"

She looked straight into his eyes without fear. His eyes were full of anger, but she repeated it calmly,

each word loud and clear.

He clenched her jaw harder. However, Anne didn't feel any pain. Instead, she thought the man was

ridiculous.

"Shut up!"

Obviously, he was angry because his authority was challenged by the woman he hated most. How

could he not be angry?
