Renewal Of Love novel Chapter 152

"Anne, do you think that you can just drag your feet in this house the moment you came back? I tell you, in this villa, I am the real hostess!"

Cherry said in a sharp and mean tone, while looking at Anne indifferently. Her eyes were full of hostility.

She believed that Kevin's change of attitude towards her was all because of Anne. If it weren't for Anne, she would have been married to Kevin. For her, this tragedy was to be blamed upon Anne. She ruined everything.

With a scowl in her face, Anne looked at Cherry in the heat of the moment. Her mean voice echoed in her ears, making her very agitated.

She didn't want to argue with Cherry, but this vicious woman was pushing her to her limit. Her intentions were clear from the beginning; she just wanted to stay with her child and had no interest in competing over Kevin.

"Are you done babbling your nonsense? If you have nothing to say anymore, just leave. I have a baby to take care of!"

After saying these words furiously, Anne intended to close the door to end this conversation. That woman was just mad, so just let her be. The most important agenda her was her child. If she could see the baby every day, she had no business running against someone else.

Anne had convinced herself that she would not argue with Cherry even though her bitchy attitude ruined her good mood and made her irritated. There really was no need to do so, because she had nothing to do with Kevin.

"Do you have any idea what's going on? Don't you know who you are speaking to right now? I manage this house! You only came back for the child so you could use it to get closer to Kevin. I tell you; I won't let you succeed!"

Even though it was contrary to what Anne said, Cherry was sure that she had a scheme to eventually have Kevin. This woman was trying to contest her for his man.

"Maybe you only have such belief because you feel that way. You have dirty thoughts. Is this how you see other people? As competitors? Cherry, if you are drowning in your disgusting presumptions, please keep them to yourself!"

Anne blurted out her anger and used keen words, having had her fill of this bullying. She didn't want to make a commotion, but it didn't mean that she would be at the mercy of others.

She didn't want to compete with Cherry for anything. She just wanted to be a mother, but Cherry was maleficent. She would never allow herself to be trampled by others like before.

It was the first time that Anne had spoken to Cherry in such a tone. At the same time, it was also a first for Cherry to be nagged by someone. How could she bear the feeling?

"Don't be so complacent. Since I can make you leave this place for the first time, I can also make you disappear for the second time!"

Anne was rendered speechless by Cherry's threatening words. The expression on Cherry's face became distorted. This was the first time she had felt that Anne had the upper hand.

"That depends on your capabilities. You better make me, and my son leave here and disappear from you sight forever!"

If Anne could take her baby away from this hell of a place, she would be very happy. If Kevin grew tired of her and let her take the child, she would do so without hesitation.

Unable to get the better of Anne, Cherry flared up, her eyes full of malice. Anne was no good for her. She had changed a lot since she came back. It wouldn't be so easy anymore for Cherry to expel her from the villa.

"I will force you out of here. I will not give you a chance to stay with Kevin. He belongs to me. He's mine!"

After uttering these words in a roaring tone, Cherry slammed the door and left. She would not let her go so easily.

The house was filled by the resonating thud of the door until it faded into silence. Anne sighed with a hot head; her scowling eyebrows revealed her impatience. Cherry was showing more and more aggressiveness. Perhaps things would only get far more complicated than it was already.

When hearing the baby's whining, Anne suddenly came to her senses. Looking at the innocent child cry, she felt distressed.

She walked briskly to the baby and picked him up. Seeing the baby's tears, she was saddened.

"Now, now, be a good boy. Don't cry, baby. Mommy is here…"

Anne paced back and forth in the room, embracing her baby in a lullaby. Looking at the child, she felt sorry. He must have felt frightened from all the quarrel with Cherry.

Thinking of this possibility, she couldn't help but feel guilty. If she had kept her composure, the boy wouldn't have been scared.

It was not easy to coax the child back to sleep. Anne breathed a long sigh of relief. She didn't know how painful it would be if her child kept crying.

In the study, Kevin couldn't help but feel upset when he heard the baby's wailing. In addition, he too had just quarreled with Anne, so he was not in the mood to work now.

He strode into the room where Anne was. He pushed the door open and came in like a bulldozer without knocking. Hearing the door swing wide open, Anne thought it was Cherry. Her dwindling anger burst out in flames. 'What does she want this time?' she thought.

"Get out!" Anne suddenly turned around and shouted at the person at the door before she could realize who it was.

Kevin, who had just come in, was stunned at Anne's exclamation. When he absorbed what just happened, his radiant face darkened.

'Damn it! How bold of her to tell me to get out? Is she out of her mind? No one dares to say the words 'get out' to me. This woman really plucked up the courage,' he pondered.

"What did you just tell me?" With obscurity on his knockout face, Kevin stood still and spoke blandly, his black eyes flaring. He couldn't believe that this woman actually told him to get out

Realizing that it was Kevin's voice, Anne was petrified for a moment. She looked at the door swiftly. When she confirmed that it was indeed Kevin who was planted at the door like a tree at dusk, she felt discombobulated.

She was wrong in thinking that it was Cherry. Did Kevin hear what she just said?

"Kevin… Why are you here? Is there something wrong?"

Anne immediately avoided Kevin's eyes. At this moment, she was flustered. This man heard what she just said, and based on his aura, he was not happy with it.

"I asked you to repeat what you just said!"

'Is this stupid woman trying to change the topic? She had the audacity to tell me to get out. Is it because I spoiled her too much that she thinks she can dictate me?' he contemplated.

Looking at his indignant stare, Anne was nervous as a jackrabbit upon hearing the howl of the wolf. She knew she had provoked him with her unpleasant words intended for Cherry.

"I… I didn't mean what I said. I thought you were someone else. Don't get me wrong,"

Anne explained anxiously. But the more she explained herself, the more she panicked. Seeing Kevin was about to erupt his burnt-up words, Anne couldn't help but be disturbed.

"You didn't say that to me? Then who were you talking to? Is there someone else in your room except me?"

Kevin clenched his jaw and gave an investigating stare. Obviously, he did not believe what Anne just said. He just had an exchange with her a few moments ago, and she must have held a grudge against him.

"It's… Nothing. Just take it as it is. You heard me right. I said something wrong..."

Anne wanted to mention Cherry and their feud, but when she thought of the relationship between the two, she had to swallow back her words.

Cherry was holding a significant place in his heart. If she uttered her name, Kevin might think that she was speaking ill of her on purpose.

Noticing that she broke off in mid-sentence, Kevin felt disconsolate. He felt that she had something that she didn't want to tell him which made him feel like there was an ocean between them.

"I just heard the baby crying. What happened? Why did the baby suddenly whine so fiercely?"

Kevin didn't want to argue with her anymore. He saw the sobbing child and felt sorry for him.

Hearing his words, Anne glanced at her baby seemingly troubled. She felt worse that Kevin.

"I think he must be hungry." The baby had been crying for quite a while now which made Anne's heart pound.

"I'll have the maid prepare something to eat then." After coming to a resolve, Kevin turned around and was about to leave.

"Don't you think your son is too young to eat?"

Before Kevin was able to make for the door, Anne reminded him in a hurry. The child was only an infant. How could he eat anything?

"Then what should we do?" Hearing what she said, Kevin furrowed his brows and his eyes gave a hint of concern.

Anne was speechless and felt sorry for his naivety. This man had no idea what his child exactly needed. Did this mean that he never cared about his son?

It had been months since the baby was born. How could he not know that the baby was too young that he couldn't eat, that it was milk he needed? As a father, he was derelict of his responsibilities.

"Forget it. I know how to feed the baby. You can go ahead with your work now."

Her face became disappointed, her tone estranged. After saying this, she turned away from him.

She had thought that Kevin would take care of the child attentively. After all, it was the only thing that kept them tied to each other, but now it seemed like that was not the case.

The baby continued to wail, and Anne couldn't help herself but feel guilty. He was separated from his mother from the moment he was born, and his father knew nothing about him, let alone love him.

Kevin frowned and looked at Anne in confusion as if he had noticed the change in her mood.

'What's wrong with her? She was fine just now. Why did she switch to a troubled face so quickly? Was she still angry about what happened today?' he wondered.
