Renewal Of Love novel Chapter 133

Seeing the unnatural expression on Anne's face, Sam frowned worriedly and then nodded in agreement.

"Okay. It's late now. You must be tired. Let's go back." Sensing that she was vague, Sam didn't want to force her to do anything.

It was not until she got in the car that Anne felt the uncomfortable feeling behind her disappeared. She didn't know why but she felt Kevin's intimidating presence around the perimeter.

What was wrong with here? Was she still dreaming about him?

"What are you thinking about? You looked distracted just now," asked Sam as he turned to Anne with a gentle smile on his handsome face.

"Nothing. It was nothing." Anne concealed the fact that she was thinking of Kevin in her heart just now.

"If you are exhausted, just close your eyes and take a rest. I will wake you up once we get home." Sam spoke in a soft, calming voice as he looked at Anne with a pair of gentle eyes. He didn't want her to be bothered by Kevin all the time anymore.

"Okay."

It happened that Anne was not in the mood to face the concerned eyes of Sam. After saying that, she reclined her seat, leaned against it, and closed her eyes.

All Anne could think about was Kevin. With a scowl, she tried to get rid of the thought of him, but no matter what she did, it was useless.

Kevin's face seemed to be engraved in her mind. No matter how hard she tried distracting her thoughts, his face lingered still in her senses.

She lost track of how long the car had been running. And finally, her weary frame gave up to the drowsiness. She managed to get rid of Kevin's figure in her mind and fell asleep in her seat.

When they arrived home, Sam parked the car steadily in the driveway. He had thought of multiple ways to wake up Anne but when she saw her sleeping soundly, he couldn't bear to do so.

This could have been her first quality sleep since God knew when.

In her deep sleep, Anne moved a limb, and Sam's borrowed coat slipped down from her shoulder.

She was quiet as a feline when she was asleep. Without the usual indifference and alienation, she was particularly cute in Sam's eyes.

He leaned forward and gently tucked her in his coat. He didn't want her to catch a cold at this hour. She was not in the best health condition, so he had to take good care of her.

The moonlight glistened on Anne's face through the window and coated her with a faint luster.

Being that close to her face, Sam was tempted to kiss her.

Perhaps she felt something move in her seat that woke her up. She slowly opened her eyes.

When she saw Sam's gorgeous face being so close to him, Anne was stunned for a moment. She felt awkward as soon as she came to her senses.

"Sam? Sam, what are you doing?"

The two of them were so close to each other that they could hear each other's breath. Anne was a bit flustered. It was the first time she had seen Sam in a close-up.

Although they were good friends, the two maintained an indescribable outlook of ambiguity.

At first, Sam was lost in thought as he stared at Anne. When he heard her voice, he came to an epiphany. For a moment, the atmosphere fell into an awkward situation.

"No, nothing. I just saw my coat fall off and I just wanted to cover you up." Sam looked away in a hurry and quickly thought of a suitable reason to prevaricate the silly circumstance.

Upon hearing that, Anne couldn't help but take a look at her clothes. Seeing that what he said was true, she breathed a sigh of relief. The embarrassment just now somewhat escaped through the window gaps.

"Didn't you say you will wake me up when we arrive? You could have tapped my shoulder."

Anne had no idea how long she had slept in the car just now. She felt uneasy when she thought of the fact that Sam had been sitting there right beside her all this time.

"I just saw you sleeping so soundly. I didn't have the heart to wake you up. You haven't had a good rest for quite some time now that's why I hesitated to disturb you in your sleep." Sam was true to his words. His eyes flashed concern when he looked at Anne.

Although it was just a typical concern, Anne felt more embarrassed. She knew clearly how he felt about her.

"Let's go inside. It's getting late." It was such a compact space in the car, and the ambiance would only become more awkward from then on if the two stayed there alone.

"You're right. Let's go inside."

Sam saw right through Anne's mind. Although he felt a bit disappointed, he still kept a subtle smile on his face.

He was like a burst of warm sunshine to people. He made them feel warm and homely.

After entering the house, Anne gave back his coat and greeted him good night before she entered her room.

Her body-warmth still lingered on his coat which made his heart tremble intensely. He had just felt her alienation.

With a ridiculed smile, Sam walked into his room. He knew that she just treated him as a friend, but that was no excuse for him to lose his patience.

What happened with Kevin traumatized her so much that Sam had an impulse to take her in his arms and secure her all his life.

If she was willing to, he would protect her all the time. He would love her well, keep her safe from harm, and never let her suffer any pain.

But even so, he was just a friend to her. It never went any farther from there. From the beginning to the end, she only cared about Kevin.

In the car, Kevin looked at the distance with his obscure eyes. His dark eyes flashed with coldness, and his aura was intimidating.

"Find out about the relationship between Sam and Anne!" Making a quick call, Kevin spoke to the man at the other end of the phone superciliously.

"Okay, Mr. Kevin. I'll look into it right away."

Although it was late at night, the temperature was crisp, yet the secretary couldn't help but perspire when he felt his boss's anger through the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Kevin took another look at the house where Anne lived, and then viciously stepped on the gas pedal and left in a second.

Lying on the bed, Anne had a hard time sleeping. Thinking of the way Sam looked at her just now, she felt discombobulated and began to doubt whether she had done something that made him misunderstand her.

She loved him, but only as her best friend. She never wanted to add any hint of impurities, nor did she want it to go bad.

She sighed helplessly. In her conscience, she had decided to find an opportunity to clear things out with Sam. If the confusion continued, it would most likely end with them not being friends at all.

After some time, she finally fell asleep. She must have been tired from thinking things through.

But her beauty rest was far from lasting. Her phone rang abruptly. When she saw that the caller ID flashed Kevin's name, she hung up decisively.

Since this man made it clear that he had no intention of letting her see their child, why would she even bother seeing him? She begged countless times, but it was useless.

After Anne hung up the phone, Kevin flushed with anger. This damn woman dared not to answer his call just now. It was very bold of her to do such a thing.

With her sleep interrupted, Anne no longer felt drowsy. She just shut her eyes even though her mind was wide awake and forced herself not to muse about Kevin.

But this man was insisting. He dialed her number again and called immediately.

She hung up the second time around, but this time she received a message.

"Anne, if you don't answer my call, you won't be able to see your child for the rest of your life."

When she saw the word 'child', her heart jumped fiercely. Her eyes glistened with sadness. What else could this man do except threaten her?

When Anne was lost in her various fancies and conjectures, her phone rang again. It was Kevin's third call. But this time, without any hesitation she answered the phone.

"What on earth do you want me to do to see my baby?" she asked about the child as soon as she picked up the call.

"Come out to see me in two minutes. I'm waiting outside." Ignoring Anne's anxious opener, Kevin spoke unhappily at the thought that Anne dared to hang up on him.

"Where on earth is my son? Will you please let me see him?" Anne asked eagerly the second time around, looking for his son's whereabouts.

"Don't make me repeat what I just said!"

After uttering these unsympathetic words, Kevin hung up the phone bluntly this time. 'Damn it! The woman only has the baby in her mind! Couldn't she see anyone else?'

Hearing the beeping sound of a hung-up call, Anne was so angry that she wanted to send her phone flying. But in order to see her child, she had to endure this menacing man.

She put on her clothes and rushed downstairs double time, but as soon as she ran towards Kevin's car, he drove away at full speed.

Anne stared at the disappearing rear lights with her still puffy eyes. What was that all about? He left as soon as she walked towards him. Was this a game of revenge?

Anne was left confused. She took out her phone angrily and dialed Kevin's number.

"Hello?" he answered in a stoic voice.

"What's the meaning of this? You asked me to come out and now you left. Is this some kind of joke?"

Anne's tone spelled the word frustration. Her anger caused her face to flush red, which made her skin rosy like a peach. Too bad for Kevin, he was not there to see her charming color. If he saw her like this, he would definitely want to have sex with her.

"I just said I'll give you two minutes. You were three minutes late!" 'The heck! How dare she blame me? She was the one who kept me waiting,' he thought.

Kevin's words left Anne in disbelief, but she too was furious. She was only three minutes late, but this man was insanely punctual.

With Anne dumbstruck with his silly promptness, Kevin ended the phone call. He thought, 'This woman didn't even explain why she was late. What was she doing in the house for so long? Was she with Sam?'
