Renewal Of Love novel Chapter 114

A woman he truly loved? Did he love her?

How could it be possible? He was just interested in her body. How could he fall in love with a woman like her?

He knew that his ideal woman was like Cherry, a beautiful, generous, and kind-hearted woman.

"Do you think I would fall in love with such a woman? Am I that tasteless in your eyes?" Kevin answered coldly. He looked at his assistant with disdain.

He would never admit that he liked that woman. He kept himself believing that the only woman he loved was Cherry.

But it was different when he saw Anne's devastated eyes today. It was too painful that he almost agreed to her request of seeing the baby.

The assistant shook his head helplessly, disappointed when he heard the president's answer. It was undeniable that he didn't want to admit his feelings for her. His thoughts were just too complicated to understand.

Kevin had his servants arrange the baby's room before he arrived at the villa. There were several servants waiting in the room, taking care of the newborn child.

"Mr. Kevin!" The servants bowed to him the moment they saw him.

"All of you leave now." Kevin motioned them to go out without glancing at any of them.

The servants obeyed his order at once.

He headed to the side of the crib and checked on his baby. He caressed his little face and noticed that it somehow looked like him, but surprisingly replicated Anne's features as well.

"Do you also think I am too ruthless to her? Will you hate me when you grow up?" It was funny how he asked a two-day-old baby that question. He knew that the baby couldn't understand what he was thinking, but he felt compelled to speak his mind in front of him.

In the hospital, Anne was still lying on the bed in distress. She was in a daze. She couldn't accept that she couldn't see her child.

The door of the ward suddenly flung open. Sam immediately checked on her and noticed that she was a complete mess. He felt so bad seeing her like that.

"Anne, how are you feeling? Are you all right?"

"Why is he so cruel to me? Why? Why can't I even see my own child?" She suddenly burst out in tears when her gaze turned to him.

'Why did Kevin do this to her? Why!' The thought made Sam furious.

"Calm down, Anne. I know you're depressed right now, and I understand how you feel… But it may be good for you if you can't see the child. If you see the child, I'm certain you would never let him go."

He knew that Anne would become more emotionally attached if she saw the child. How could she be willing to leave him if she saw him?

"But that's my child. Has he ever thought about my feelings when he did this? I'm the mother of the child. Don't I even have the right to see him?"

Her beautiful eyes were filled with torment as she looked at Sam. The tears coming out were full of pain.

"Anne, let's not think about it now, okay? The most important thing for you now is to take good care of yourself." Sam was worried that Anne's emotional instability would break her. He knew that if he couldn't persuade her, she might collapse.

She was still very weak. Her mental breakdown would put her into a dangerous situation.

"Sam, please help me to see my child. I beg you!"

She knew what Sam was capable, and she only hoped that he could grant her request.

His heart couldn't refuse her pleading face. But every time he remembered what Kevin had said to him before, he had to be cautious of his actions.

"Okay, I'll figure something out. But before that, you must have a good rest, okay?"

To convince Anne to rest, Sam could only temporarily calm her emotions. The most important thing right now was her health.

"Okay, thank you, thank you!" Her eyes beamed with gratitude. She knew that with his power, the chances of seeing the child were much higher.

"Then you should lie down and get some rest. I'll ask the cook to prepare lunch for you and deliver it later."

It gave him relief that she was no longer obsessing over her child.

She obediently rested on her bed after Sam reassured her. However, she still thought about her child. She couldn't wait to finally see what the baby looked like.

A few days had passed, and Anne was able to recover quickly. She was finally feeling good enough to be discharged from the hospital.

Since she couldn't go back to Kevin's villa, she had to go back to her own house.

Sam offered her to stay in his place for the time being so he could take care of her, but she refused.

"Thanks for driving me home, Sam." She smiled and thanked him with a grateful tone.

"Anne. I think it's more convenient for you to live in my house so that I can take care of you. I'm worried about you living here alone."

He wanted to say something, but when he stared into her eyes, the calmness stopped him.

"No, thanks. I'm used to living here alone. It's good for me to live here."

Sam had gone through so much trouble because of Anne, and her conscience wouldn't allow her to cause him any more trouble. After all, they were just friends.

"Well, since you insist, I won't force you. But remember, if you need any help at all, call me any time." He had always been a gentleman, and she knew that he wouldn't force anyone to do anything.

"Okay." Anne smiled and bowed to him slightly. Her face suddenly turned serious when she asked him,

"Have you thought of any way to help me see my child?"

Although she hadn't mentioned the child for two days, her mind was still full of expectations of seeing her child. The most important thing for her was to see her baby.

He suddenly felt mixed emotions when he heard what she said.

"Not yet. I've been worried about your health these days, so I haven't figured out a way to let you see your child. But don't worry. I'll help you find a way."

He forced a smile when he answered. Truthfully, he didn't want her to see the baby. That way, his efforts would be useless.

"I see." The expectation in her eyes was replaced by disappointment when she heard his answer.

"You should go. I want to go to bed." Her mood went stale when she heard that he still hadn't planned for the baby.

"Okay, I'll go on ahead. Get some rest," he answered and left.

The moment he came downstairs, Sam noticed a familiar luxury car not far away. Even though the windows of the car were tinted, his eyes seemed to distinguish the person inside.

In the seat of his car, Kevin looked at Anne's window on the third floor with an impassive expression on his face.

Sam withdrew his gaze and rode his car. He knew who it was. He was baffled by Kevin's behavior towards Anne. Why did he continue to hurt her? Couldn't he just let her live in peace?

Didn't Kevin say he would protect his woman at all costs? Why did he ask someone else to protect her?

Kevin had been there for almost an hour. His assistant already knew that he had no intention of going upstairs, but he still reminded him with a bit of hesitation in his voice,

"Mr. Kevin, aren't you going upstairs?"

He had been Kevin's assistant for several years, but still, he could never figure out what his boss was thinking.

What made him more puzzled was when Kevin told him that he didn't like Anne, but the moment he heard that she was discharged from the hospital, he came rushing here and stayed for an hour.

"Let's go." Kevin suddenly decided and turned his gaze towards the road.

He wouldn't allow a vicious woman to stay at his place. He wanted nothing to do with a woman like her. She should just disappear from his life.

The assistant shook his head in disbelief because of Kevin's order. He started the engine and drove away.

Anne opened the window to let the air in and saw a familiar car was driving away.

A bitter smile crept to her face.

She knew that she was so stupid to expect that Kevin would come back to her.

That man was so apathetic towards him. Why would he even appear here?

He should be holding Cherry in his arms by now. After all, their relationship had already ended. There was no reason for him to restrain himself anymore.

Kevin finally arrived at the villa. The expression on his face couldn't be distinguished as he walked through the long corridor. As soon as he entered the living room, Cherry threw herself into his arms.

"Kevin, why did you come back so late? It's a weekend today. Where have you been all morning?" She calmly asked him as she gently took off his coat.

"I went out to do something," he answered and sat on the sofa without minding Cherry.

Cherry hadn't noticed his indifference. She proceeded to sit on his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Kevin, why are you preoccupied these days? Is there anything bothering you?"

Kevin seldom talked to her these days, and it made Cherry a little anxious.

"Nothing. I just had to take care of some things in the company." He spoke passively, frowning at her continued insistence.

"Kevin, now that you have ended your relationship with Anne, the matter between the two of us…"

They had already broken up for so long. Kevin never mentioned that they would get married. Cherry was worried because she felt that his attitude hadn't changed even when Anne was no longer around.

"The matter between us will be talked about later."

Kevin decided before that after Anne gave birth to the child, he would marry Cherry immediately. But without knowing why, when he already faced the problem, it seemed that he was starting to change his mind about that decision.

She was dissatisfied with his answer. What did he mean by that? Did he not want to marry her anymore?
