Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 226

Spring was approaching, and there wouldn’t be too many hospitals filled with vitality. Due to the change of the season, life unexpectedly bloomed. And when observed from afar, the view was refreshing enough to make people relax.

However, Anne wasn’t into it.

She wore a simple windbreaker, and her slightly curly hair was tied up into a ponytail. Her eyes were neither cold nor warm. In fact, any trace of emotions in her eyes seemed to have vanished.

"Anne, when I came here just now, I saw Rose come around."

When Mark arrived at the hospital, he saw Anne and remembered that Rose also came to the hospital. Anxiety enveloped him as he told her what he had seen.

But when Sam saw this scene, he immediately paused and said, "Anne, Eddy just woke up."

"Okay, I’ll go and have a look."

Anne immediately proceeded to walk over to the ward.

Mark, on the other hand, wasn’t very familiar with Sam, but he felt strange when he was suddenly interrupted because he knew that she knew Sam well. But he always suspected, since then, that he purposely and deliberately changed the topic.

"Why don’t you allow me to tell her?" Mark straightforwardly asked.

To which Sam simply replied, "No need. She probably knows already. Why do you have to stir trouble for others?"

"I see."

Looking at her who was gradually disappearing from his sight, he couldn’t help but imagine the smile on Rose’s face. For some reason, she had a different vibe from the first time they met.

Anne managed to walk over to the corner and arrived at the spot where she could see Rose with the report on hand.

They weren't friends in the first place, but now it seemed that they were actual enemies.

Selma followed Rose, fearing that something might happen to her.

"Anne, you’re not allowed to get close to Eddy now that Rose is pregnant," she said.

"Eddy is my child. I won’t give up and simply back away." Anne didn't want to interact too much with her. She wouldn't listen to anyone no matter what they said. It was better to deny it from the get-go.

"Mom, don’t be mad. Let’s take some time to think about it." Rose patted Selma’s back to calm her down.

"You are so considerate. Okay, let me worry about what I need to prepare."

When Selma looked at Rose, she resembled so much like a kind and loving mother. Anne, on the other hand, had a stoic expression all through it.

When Selma walked over, Anne noticed that the delicate and pitiful Rose looked at her with a hint of contempt.

Sure enough, some people would change, and Anne felt that there wasn't anything strange about it.

This was like another Cherry, except she was no longer the Anne she used to be.

"Anne, are you okay?" Mark rushed over first, but he almost bumped into Rose, which provoked Selma to react violently.

"Are you blind? What if you hurt someone for being too reckless?"

The moment Rose saw him, her face slowly softened and she once again comforted her mother with a faint voice, "Mom, I’m fine. He didn’t mean to do that. He was just worried about Anne."

These words, however, didn't help to calm her down, and instead fueled her anger even further. "Humph! She is so unfaithful anyway. Not only did she latch onto Kevin, she also had an affair with another man."

As always, she despised Anne.

"Mom, you can go back now. I’ll wait for the result. I’ve already checked into another hospital. You don’t have to worry about it. Also, grandpa isn’t feeling well recently, so you’d better be there to take care of him."

"You are truly considerate. Fine, I’ll go now. Call me if anything happens."

"Okay," Rose replied and gave her a warm smile.

While she was waiting, she saw Mark. A strange, sudden rush of emotion flashed through her being. Thinking of his attitude towards Anne today, she felt extremely unhappy.

"Mr. Mark," she called as she walked over to Mark.

He turned around and politely smiled at her. "Miss Rose, it's been a long time."

"Are you familiar with Anne?" she asked tentatively, not wasting any of her precious time.

At the mention of Anne, his voice suddenly became gentler. "Yes, she’s my friend."

"Oh, I see. Mr. Mark, didn't you say that we were friends as well?" She felt a slight discomfort recalling the moment that he almost knocked her down.

"You mean what happened earlier today? I was too anxious at that time and I almost ended up hurting you. I’m so sorry." He genuinely felt sorry.

But Rose could tell that the nature of relationship between him and Anne was somehow more than what he claimed it to be.

Obviously, he cared more about Anne. While to Rose, he always seemed polite and kinder when she was around.

"Anne is fortunate to have a friend like you." She tried to hide her disenchantment with a facade of being nice.

"I have something else to do for now, Miss Rose."

Mark walked over towards Eddy's ward almost immediately. Looking back, he saw Rose being lost in her own thoughts.

A burst of laughter came from the child's ward.

The door was closed, but when he opened it, he saw Eddy smiling together with his pair of bright, lively eyes.
