Renewal Of Love

Chapter 124 Meet Again

Kevin frowned when he saw that Cherry was walking towards him, but he quickly concealed his

disappointment.

"Kevin, let's talk. I don't want to be scared anymore," she mumbled and sat across the attractive man

after she glanced at his calm demeanor.

"What is it that you want to talk about?" He already knew where this conversation was going but he still

wanted to hear it from her.

"I overheard your phone call just now," she said as she looked at him with disappointed eyes. Sadness

started to spread across her already pale features.

"And?" he asked impatiently.

His answer disheartened the woman. The lack of response and explanation broke her heart.

She squeezed her hands that were on her thigh and stared into his eyes again.

"Are you really willing to give up the relationship that we have? We've been together for so long and I © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

have always loved you with all my heart. Do you really have to hurt me this way?"

she lamented as she gazed deeply into his eyes.

"Just… forget about this, Cherry. Even if the two of us break up, I will still treat you like a friend."

Kevin had already made up his mind. He was determined to take Anne back. Still, guilt made its way

into his heart. After all, he owed the woman in front of him.

"Don't you remember the promise you made with my mom when she died? You swore that you would

take good care of me, but look at you now. You're doing the complete opposite!"

Tears fell from her eyes and trailed down her porcelain skin. She couldn't hide her pained expression

after she mentioned her late mother.

He looked at the woman with sympathy. The torment in her eyes fueled his guilt further. Her mother

saved his life, and that was why he promised her that he would take good care of Cherry in exchange.

At that time, he thought that his heart would only beat for Cherry, but now, he couldn't control his heart

anymore.

"I'm grateful that your mother saved me, but…" he trailed off on his words. He hesitated to finish his

words because he knew that it would hurt her even more.

"Please, don't do this Kevin. You've been my everything since my mother died. What am I going to do

now that you're about to leave me too?"

Hope quickly overwhelmed her heart as her little act succeeded to draw a painful reaction from him. He

was a man that was attached to his promises. He hated breaking oaths. He wouldn't bend his

principles just for Anne, would he?

"Cherry, I will still treat you like a sister in the future. If you have any difficulties or you need anything, I

will help. I could even buy a villa for you if you want. You don't have to worry about your life."

He had to make it clear no matter how much he pitied the woman in front of him.

He refused to hesitate anymore. He had been indecisive for a long time, and that was not him.

"Do you think I need any of that? I didn't choose you because of your money nor your house. Don't

insult the relationship that I have with you. It's funny because you are my everything yet I have no place

in your heart at all."

Tears streamed down her face as she looked at him pleadingly.

His heart trembled again. He had something to do with her mother's death. She died because she

saved him. That was why he had always doted on Cherry. It was all because of his guilt.

"You know that no one can control me, right?"

No one could change his decision, neither his past nor the woman in front of him. Since he wanted

Anne back, nothing could prevent him from doing so.

The woman clenched her fists and tried her best to get ahold of her emotions. She hated the fact that

even after she mentioned her mother's death, he remained unaffected.

She pondered about every possible way that could keep him by her side.

"You haven't fully recovered yet," he said, changing the topic. "I've asked the butler to prepare some

healthy food for you. Go back to your room and rest for now. I have something to deal with at the

company. I should go ahead."

Kevin dismissed the conversation and stood up. He left without even throwing a glance at her direction.

A strong hatred surged within her heart after he left without hesitation. Her eyes turned cold, and her

heart turned even colder.

"Anne, even though you're already gone, you still haunt my life. Now he wants to break up with me

because of you. Well, too bad. I'll never let you come back, nor will I let you take him away from me."

Her words were full of hatred and wickedness. Vicious confidence overwhelmed her. She already

managed to break the two of them apart once, and it wouldn't be hard for her to do it again.

After the confrontation, Kevin arrived at his office of the Fu Group.

"Mr. Kevin, the plane is waiting for you on the rooftop." The secretary bowed after he spoke.

"Okay! Let's go," he replied lightly, and headed straight to the top floor.

He turned his phone off because he didn't want to be disturbed. He was excited to fly to America, so

that he could find that little woman.

"How has she been doing in America these days? Is she in a relationship with Sam?"

The thought that another man had been with Anne all this time made him uncomfortable. Now he

realized that it was a wrong decision to ask Sam just to take care of Anne back then.

He was well aware of Sam's feelings for Anne, yet he forgot about it and asked Sam to take care of

her. He was so wrong.

"What do you mean, Mr. Kevin? A loving relationship?" the secretary asked cautiously as he looked at

his gloomy face

"What do you think?" Kevin raised his eyebrows slightly as he looked at his secretary. His secretary's

cluelessness was starting to get on his nerves.

"Well… Miss Anne seems to have a good relationship with Mr. Sam. They are quite close." The

secretary gave a fair answer.

Kevin clicked his tongue and clenched his fists when he heard him.

"What do you mean by close?"

He couldn't bring himself to be happy now that he found out that Anne had gotten intimate with another

man. How could he react positively if the woman he loved was close to another man?

"It's just that they are very close."

Faced with the sudden anger of his boss, the secretary was a little confused. Was the president

jealous?

"You've been my secretary for too long. Do you want me to find someone to replace you?" 'Damn it,

what did he mean by close? How close were the two of them?' Kevin contemplated.

What he wanted to know was whether they had kissed, or if they were living under the same roof! That

was his fucking concern!

Kevin's deep-seated anger terrified his secretary. He shifted his eyes away from him and said, "Mr.

Kevin, you'll see her soon. I'm not the person involved, so how can I know everything..."

"How dare you talk back to me? Do you want a three-month cutback on your salary?"

His secretary's words fumed him more, and his anger only intensified when he realized that Anne had

spent every passing day with Sam.

"Mr. Kevin, please..." The secretary wanted to weep and whine. He was struggling to stay composed.

He looked at his boss and contemplated if he had said something offensive. He wondered if he did

anything to cause this predicament.

"Five months!" The CEO's intimidating voice echoed through the secretary's ears.

"…" He looked at Kevin's emotionless face and was about to break down.

To be punished for no reason was just so unfair.

Before Kevin could even breathe a word, the plane had already landed. Instead of heading towards the

company, he went directly to Anne's address.

There was no one at home when they arrived. He looked around and wondered where the woman

went.

When he couldn't find an answer, he sat on the sofa and crossed his legs elegantly. A faint smile

spread across his face as the thought of seeing Anne again crossed his mind.

"Mr. Kevin, are you going to wait here? Should I send someone to look for Miss Anne?"

The secretary stared at his boss who was now in a good mood. When did his boss become this

moody? He was clearly in a foul mood when he was on the plane, but now he seemed very excited His

behavior had become so uncertain. The secretary stared at the atmosphere blankly and recalled the

five-month salary that would be deducted from him.

"I'll wait for her here. Stop bothering me and just leave." He glanced at his employee impatiently and

dismissed him.

The secretary threw a confused look towards him.

He tried to grasp his boss's logic. Since Kevin thought that he was an eyesore, why bother bringing him

along to America?

No matter how clueless he was, he decided to keep his mouth shut. If he said anything more, his salary

deduction might get higher, or worse, he could get fired.

"Okay, Mr. Kevin," he answered respectfully and left in a hurry. He didn't want to make his boss angrier.

Kevin looked around the house after his secretary left. Although it was not as big as his villa, this one

felt cozier. It was full of her smell, something that he had been longing for.

Time passed by unbeknownst to Kevin before he heard footsteps emerging from outside. Anne walked

into the yard with a disheartened look on her face. Every passing day, she went to Kevin's property in

American to find out the whereabouts of her child, but she always came back with nothing.

She sighed and opened the door dejectedly, but before he could step get inside, the man embraced

her.

"Ah!" Her eyes widened as she screamed in horror because she thought it was a burglar.

Before she could see who it was, the man started to kiss her.

Was it a rapist?

What in God's name was going on?

The person's scent and the kiss felt awfully familiar to her.

Upon the realization, she pushed the man away, and looked at him in astonishment.

It was really him. It was Kevin!

Her heart was beating like a drum. Seeing him after such a long time pained her heart. She wasn't sure

what to feel at that moment.
