Renewal Of Love novel Chapter 90

When Anne got downstairs, Kevin was still there, but Cherry was not.

She glanced at him indifferently. Then, she walked past him and prepared to leave.

She couldn't help feeling angry when she thought of what Kevin and Cherry just did.

"Stop!" Kevin's cold voice wormed its way into earshot. He stood up and strode towards her. "Where are you going?" Suppressing her anger, Anne turned her head and fixed him with an icy glare.

"Out for a walk."

"I'll go with you!" It was not a request. It was a statement. Kevin's face was cheerless and his words were even more domineering than usual.

"No, thanks. You should spend more time with Cherry," she replied in a chilly tone. And with that, she left the villa.

When Kevin looked at the woman walking away from him, his face darkened, his black eyes filled with anger.

This damn woman refused him again!

Anne came to the street Ryan talked about. They often played there when they were young.

More than ten years had passed, but the street was still the same as always.

The gates of memory were thrown wide. She smiled as she remembered happier times. She lost herself in reverie, in treats and toys and the sound of children laughing.

"Do you remember this place? A voice pulled her back to reality. It was gentle, pleasant. It was Ryan. "We came here a lot when we were kids," he added. Anne turned in the direction of the voice.

His handsome face was so close to her. His eyes were tender, and the smile at the corners of his mouth was even more so.

For a moment, Anne was daydreaming. When she realized what was going on, she took a couple steps back. But the pregnant woman was heedless of the stairs behind her and lost her balance.

"Ah..." At the thought of the baby she carried, panic flashed through her eyes.

"Watch out!" Ryan's voice reached her ears, and the next second, she was in his arms.

Anne buried her face in Ryan's chest. Being this close to him, she thought she could hear his heart beating.

"You are still as careless as ever." Ryan held her in his arms, an affectionate smile on his handsome face.

She was still the same as when she was a child.

Hearing his voice, Anne broke free from his arms in a hurry. She felt more than a little awkward.

"Thank you..."

she said in a small voice, with a trace of blush. She wasn't sure why she was so nervous. Maybe it was because she hadn't been that close to him before.

Nearby, in a pure black Ferrari, Kevin looked at the two joylessly. Their intimate behavior and Anne's shyness stung his heart.

He gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands, and his fingertips began to turn white from the strain.

"So formal, Anne! I think I liked you better when we were kids. You didn't used to worry about being polite."

Ryan felt that there was a rift that had grown between them. He wasn't happy about that.

"Ryan, I..." She stumbled over her words, not sure what to say next.

"Hey, I'm hungry. Let's get some seafood chow mein! You still like that, right?" Without giving her a chance to answer, Ryan took her hand and led her towards the shop.

Anne didn't like how close he was. She wanted to get rid of Ryan, but he held her hand more tightly when she tried to slip away. So she could only let him hold her hand.

"This is the place. I remember you told me you liked looking out the window."

Ryan took Anne to the table they used to sit at. He pointed towards the window, tenderness in his black eyes.

"Do you remember everything about us?"

Anne smiled. She was moved. He did remember. Memories of a simpler time.

"I'll hold those memories of us in my heart forever." His voice was mellow and soothing, but also bewitching. He was smooth and magnetic.

Anne was amazed for a moment. She didn't know what to say to that.

The waiter brought two bowls of noodles and placed them in front of the two.

"Ah, here we are. Dig in. Does it taste the same as when you were a kid?" As if he had noticed her awkwardness, Ryan handed a pair of chopsticks to her and changed the topic.

Taking the chopsticks, Anne smiled at him and began to eat.

"I remember this used to be your favorite." Ryan gracefully placed all the seafood in his bowl into Anne's.

He wasn't wrong. All of the seafood in her bowl was what she enjoyed best as a child. Anne was on the verge of tears.

"Ryan, don't be so good to me..." She was used to being ignored, and Ryan's warmth made her uncomfortable.

It was like she was used to abuse.

"I can't help it. It's how I am. You'll always be the little girl in my heart who I need to take care of."

Ryan's black eyes were full of sympathy and love in equal measure.

Anne couldn't control her tears anymore. In a panic, she wiped them with the back of her hand. She didn't want Ryan to see her this way.

"Now, now. No tears. I'll start feeling bad for you." Ryan gently wiped her tears with his slender fingers.

His eyes were full of pity. She had changed a lot while they were apart. She was no longer as carefree as she had been as a child.

Kevin glared at the two people sitting by the window, the flames of anger consuming his heart.

So this faithless bitch came here on a date with Ryan.

Good, very good! So she was going to cheat on him!

Starting the car, Kevin whipped the wheel this way and that, as if trying to vent his anger.

After meeting Ryan, Anne felt much better. Although she lived a miserable life with Kevin, at least there was someone who really cared about her.

Back at the villa, Kevin turned up there unexpectedly.

Frowning, Anne ignored him and tried to go back to her room.

Kevin grabbed the coffee cup in his hand and smashed it against the wall. Brown liquid ran down the walls and pooled on the floor. The cup lay in shards.

Bang! Startled by the sound, Anne stopped.

After that, she walked towards the stairs again.

She didn't know why this man was so angry.

"Anne, stop!"

His tone was frigid and terrible. He walked behind her. His sharp eyes were like swords, and she could feel his rage.

"What's up, Mr. Kevin?" Anne said calmly.

"Where did you go? Who did you meet? What did you do?" He spat out a barrage of questions, and his face darkened more and more with every word.

"Oh come on, Mr. Kevin. Do I really need to tell you? I'm not a child!" This man had no right to ask her anything.

"You'd better tell me the truth! Don't try me!"

This damn woman was bashful in Ryan's arms, but now she looked defiant.

"Mr. Kevin, are you out of your mind?" What had she done to offend this man? She wondered if he were crazy!

"What did you say?" Kevin grabbed her shoulder and growled.

"Kevin, what are you doing? You're hurting me. Let go!" There was a piercing pain in her shoulder. Anne frowned tightly, and a thought occurred to her.

This man was really violent. He tended to hit her whenever he got riled up.

"Answer my question! Tell me!" Kevin stared at her with his red eyes, as if he were going to swallow her.

"Let go of me!" She struggled hard. As Kevin tightened his grip, the expression on her face reflected more and more pain.

"Who is he to you? A boyfriend?" Kevin asked harshly, fighting the urge to kill Anne.

"Did you follow me?" Shocked, Anne looked at him angrily.

"You shouldn't follow me! And as for me and Ryan? That's our business. You shouldn't even care!" What right do you have to ask?"

She was furious at the thought of Kevin stalking her.

"What right? Anne, have you forgotten who you are?" He moved his hand to her chin, and pinched her jaw, forcing her to look into his eyes.

"Anne, you have to remember you're my woman. Don't try to cheat on me before we divorce, or you'll die miserably!"

"So you can be with another woman, but I can't date other guys? Kevin, don't you think you're being too controlling?"

Holding back her tears, Anne looked at him stubbornly.

This man could find another woman and bring her to his villa. Why couldn't she find another man?

Besides, it's not like she and Ryan were doing anything.

"Controlling? I'll show what controlling is!" He kissed her lips suddenly.

"HMM..." She pounded on Kevin's chest with all her might. She was humiliated. What made him think he could do what he wanted?

But no matter how hard she struggled, Kevin wouldn't let her go.

"Ouch..."

He pushed her away and glared at her. This damn woman bit him!

Was she a dog?

"Damn! You even bit me?" Pulling Anne to his side, Kevin looked down at her with anger in his eyes.

"Fuck off, Kevin!" Anne couldn't control her anger anymore.

Fuck off? And now she was cursing at him too?

"I'll do more than that!" Kevin picked up Anne and whisked her upstairs.

"What are you doing? Let go of me!"

Knowing what Kevin was going to do, Anne panicked and struggled harder, but Kevin was on the verge of exploding, ignoring her cries of protest.
