Renewal Of Love novel Chapter 155

Cherry was like a victor. Even though Anne was angry, she did not want to quarrel with her for the sake of her child.

"Cherry, no matter what happens, I'm still the mother of the baby. You can't change it. Besides, Kevin will discover how you treat the baby one day. I wonder what he would do to you when he learns that you hurt his baby."

Anne's word directly pierced Cherry's pride. Indeed, the child was Anne's, and she would never bear a child of Kevin in her life.

"So what if he finds out? That will be long after. Before you are driven away, I will take good care of this child."

As soon as she finished speaking, she left with the baby. Anne could not help looking at the baby in Cherry's arms.

Sam called and told her to put up with it. She nodded because she believed that he would find a way to help her.

In the outdoor lounge of the Fu Family, there was a bowl of bird's nest porridge on a porcelain bowl placed on a jade table.

The nanny was sitting on the sofa with the baby in her arms. Cherry picked up the bowl and ate slowly.

"Miss Cherry, it's time to give the baby medicine, isn't it?" the nanny asked.

Cherry looked at the clock and said softly, "Yes. You may go and bring the baby's medicine. I'll hold him first."

"Let me do it. I'm his mother." A crisp and obstinate voice came through, which made Cherry frown.

"But Kevin has put the baby under my care. I advise you to accept his wish. If you do something wrong again and get kicked out, I'm afraid you will never see the baby again."

She sat with her legs crossed. Her longs legs and fair skin made her seem noble. But as she looked at Anne, her eyes were full of ridicule.

She was best at taking advantage of people's weaknesses. She speculated that Anne would be mad and get into trouble because of the child. That was why she intentionally said that to annoy Anne.

But this time, to her surprise, Anne did not refute. Instead, she stared at the child quietly with deep eyes that Cherry felt hard to read.

This made her fretful. At the same moment, the nanny had just brought the medicine.

"Miss Cherry, here's the medicine."

With a small spoon in her hand, Cherry stuffed the medicine, which had been grounded into a fine powder into the baby's mouth, and caused the baby to cry.

"Miss Cherry, it's not like that. The medicine needs to be mixed with water, or else he will choke, and it would be bitter. The poor baby will cry continuously this way."

"Got it," Cherry said impatiently.

The door suddenly opened, and light came in. Anne was a little stunned. Who could it be this time?

She turned around and found it was Kevin. She just stared at him coldly.

Cherry also saw him. She immediately handed the child to the nanny and stood up with joy. "Kevin, aren't you at work? Why are you back so early?"

"I came back to see the baby. Is he feeling better?" Kevin looked at the expression on the baby's face. As a man, he did not understand the baby thing at all. The truth was, he was at ease knowing the nanny was taking care of the child. He only wanted to return to see Anne.

He thought that Anne would get angry, but she seemed to be odd that he could not figure her out at all.

"I don't think you came back just for him. The baby is always at home, but I never see you come home during work. Is there anything wrong?" Cherry asked cautiously.

"My mother already knew that my baby was sick. She might visit at any time," replied Kevin.

"Well, well, since your mother loves the baby so much, she must come very early this time. Do you want to let Anne leave first? Because it appears that your mother does not like her." Cherry pretended to be kind, but she was actually asking Kevin to drive her out.

"No way. After all, Anne is the mother of the child. Don't mention it again," he warned with a serious look.

"Yes, Cherry. Don't worry about me," Anne snorted.

She went back to her bedroom. Kevin turned and followed her in.

"Kev—" Before Cherry even finish her sentence, Kevin closed the door.

She clenched her clothes, and her eyes were full of trepidation.

The curtains in the bedroom were closed, making it very dark even in the daytime. The atmosphere gave people a sense of melancholy.

Anne entered the room and saw Kevin came in too, so she said frigidly, "Get out. This is my room."

She hated to see Kevin as she no longer wanted to have anything to do with him.

"This is my home," he declared.

He hated the way she kept a distance from him. On the contrary, he missed the time in the past when she was nice to him even if she feigned it.

Without saying a word, Anne turned on the computer and began to work on her design.

After she gave birth to the baby, she knew that she could not live in the shadow of the Fu Family or the Ye Clan anymore, so she began to study new designs even before her body fully recovered.

Considering Anne had done more than others, she had mastered it well. She remembered her mother's words that no matter when, she must live on her own and not be looked down upon by others.

"What are you doing?" Kevin was curious. In the past, he was the center of Anne's life. But ever since a crack surfaced between them, she had put all her energy on work. Now, she had learned so many things.

"Does it have anything to do with you?" Anne said, facing the screen.

Where did this woman acquire such strength? Couldn't she be a little gentle and demure beside him?

Kevin felt a sense of frustration. He thought that Anne was much more adamant than he was when he was with her.

The woman in front of him was in the state of working. He felt a bit awkward and left the room eventually.

Just as he left, Anne slammed the computer and stared at the dark room, lost in thought.

Meanwhile, Kevin leaned against a chair on the villa's rooftop. There was a delicate goblet filled with precious red wine sitting on a white marble table.

He took a sip from time to time, but the documents on the table were still untouched.

"Kevin, why are you here?" Kevin furrowed his brows after he heard Cherry's anxious voice.

How did this woman keep appearing everywhere? Couldn't she just let him be for a while?

"Who told you to come here? Get out!" Kevin was furious to be disturbed in his own place.

The house was often in chaos because of the two women. It was a headache. If he had known it earlier, he would not let himself be merciful to let Cherry stay.

"Kevin, this is chicken soup. I specially made it for you. Would you like to drink it while it is hot?" Cherry pretended not to hear what Kevin said. She thought that he would change his mind since she was so considerate and sensible.

"I'll say it again. You should go and take good care of the child, or you can leave the Fu Family straight away." Kevin's ruthless words made Cherry feel hurt.

It turned out that she no longer had a place in Kevin's heart.

Tears suddenly fell down from her eyes. She said softly, "I know. I have taken good care of the child. Don't worry. Can you come to accompany me when you are not annoyed anymore? A lot of things had happened recently. I'm scared and in a bad mood."

"Let's talk about it later," Kevin responded heartlessly.

After she left the rooftop, her face became ferocious before she stopped crying.

'Anne, you should have never come back. Everything changed since your return.' Before, she thought Anne had a place here because of her child. But now, it appeared that it was not the case.

At noon, the automatic cradle was shaking regularly with a colorful ball hanging from it in the living room. The baby's eyes swayed back and forth with the ball, blinking from time to time. Finally, he got tired and closed his eyes to sleep.

At the same time, Cherry was also a little sleepy. It was indeed a tiring duty to take care of the child patiently. If only she did not want to stay in the Fu Family, she would not care about the child's well-being.

"Cherry, what is wrong with you?" A slightly harsh voice came. Cherry suddenly opened her eyes and saw a woman standing in front of her.

She was wearing a floral white coat and a handmade silk cheongsam. Her hair was pulled up, and her eyebrows shot to her hair line. It was evident that she had well maintained herself despite a few wrinkles on her face.

The woman was Selma, Kevin's mother.

"Auntie, why are you here?" Cherry stood up and said politely.

Immediately after, the cradle moved, and the baby's cry came, loud and piercing Selma's heart.

Selma held the child in her arms and said, "Oh my God! Why are you crying? It makes me sad."

She knew about Kevin's condition and it was not easy to have this baby, therefore she deeply loved him.

"Waah…" the baby kept crying. Selma knitted her brows and thought that Cherry did not take excellent care of the baby.

"I don't know what's wrong with him. He was fine this morning. He only began to cry as soon as you came." Cherry spoke in a panic due to her dread of Selma's supremacy.

Her statement irritated Selma. "So, the baby cried because I came? Are you saying that I'm cruel to the baby or that I'll hurt him?"

Although Selma thought it was Kevin's business to choose which woman he liked, what Cherry said was too much.

"No, it's not like that. I'm happy that you could come."

Having said that, Cherry gritted her teeth with hatred. Sure enough, "The apple does not fall far from the tree," as the saying went. The child liked to oppose her, just like Anne.

But she could not lose her temper right now, so she had to go along with a smile and pray that the baby would not cry. Unfortunately, the baby kept crying. About half an hour later, Anne could not stand it anymore.

"Let me do it." Anne's aura was cold as Kevin's while she stood in front of them. Selma was startled, and then suspected.

"How can I rest assured that you…" in Selma's mind, Anne had always been a bad person.

Anne did not bother to defend herself. Her heart was overwhelmed with the wail of her child.
