Chapter 428 Condition
Chapter 428 Condition
Kevin immediately checked the stock equity situation as soon as he returned to the company. As he
was doing so, his assistant suddenly came forward and told him, "Mr. Kevin, Kristine is downstairs. She
wants to see you. She didn't say the reason why."
Kevin frowned and looked up at his assistant. "Who did you say was looking for me again?" he asked.
"Kristine," the assistant replied.
Kevin then put down the documents in his hands. Everyone in the entertainment industry knew that
Kristine was currently dating Cory. 'The two of them are working together to destroy me and Anne. Now
why would Cherry want to see me all of a sudden?'
"Let her in," Kevin said to his assistant. He was not at all hesitant to let her in.
His assistant nodded his head and went back downstairs to pick up Kristine in person. As soon as
other people in the group saw Cherry, their eyes immediately lit up with interest. Soon, gossips about
her started spreading around the company again.
But of course, Kevin was clueless about it.
Cherry stood by the door and looked at Kevin, who was still pouring all his attentions on the company's
shares. She smiled coldly and said, "I thought you wouldn't see me, Mr. Kevin. Now it seems you don't
really care."
Kevin raised his head and looked up at Cherry. He crossed his arms across his chest and said, "It
seems like Cory's girlfriend came to see me alone. Could it be that we are having an affair?"
Cherry frowned, surprised by how Kevin had reacted to her presence. Nonetheless, she laughed it off
and approached him.
Kevin remained seated, not moving at all. She then grabbed his hand, and he didn't stop her at all. He
only frowned.
Cherry looked deep into his eyes, blinking and smiling charmingly at him. She leaned forward until she
was practically draped over his lap.
Kevin was stunned by this sudden action. He wanted to push Cherry away, but she held on to him
tightly. "And if you really want to cuckold Kim, you should do it properly. Don't just sit there and look at
me," she whispered directly into his ear.
Kevin sneered, but his entire body was motionless. His voice was emotionless and nonchalant as he
said, "There is a chair over there. You don't have to sit on me if your legs are getting tired."
"But you are so much warmer than a chair. I want to stay here." Cherry's fingers slid across Kevin's
chin. Her voice was soft and sultry.
Kevin frowned even deeper and grabbed Cherry's hand, stopping it from touching his face any farther.
Their eyes met, and Cherry smiled widely.
"I used to be your lover, Kevin," she said. It was obvious by the tone of her voice that she was trying to
be seductive.
As a famous celebrity, Cherry was beautiful. No man could ever resist her. If she wished so, she could
hook up with anybody she wanted.
Kevin could just remember how Cherry became famous. She used to act as a fox spirit.
And now here she was, seducing him like a fox spirit, but there was no acting involved.
Kevin returned the smile and said, "You've just said it yourself. You used to be my lover, but now, you
have nothing to do with me. Don't forget your identity, Kristine!"
As he said this, he pushed Cherry away. But she was quick enough to wind her arms around his neck.
"Don't be so ruthless on me, Kevin. Do you even know why I'm here today?"
Kevin tilted his head and studied Cherry carefully. Smiling, she looked down on his lips, hesitating for a
moment, before she brought her lips to his own.
Despite everything that had happened, she still loved this man deeply in her heart. And while there
might no longer be place for her in his heart, Kevin holding her like this again made her happy and
contented.
If she never got his love, then why did she keep dreaming about it? But when she already got it, how
could she give it up easily?
'I'm your perfect match, Kevin. I should be your wife. I am the woman who fits perfectly with you--not
that worthless hack!'
Her lips were getting closer and closer. But just as when they were about to kiss, Kevin pulled away
quickly. This caught Cherry off guard, so she fell off his lap and landed on the ground.
Cherry's eyes widened in disbelief as soon as she was snapped back to reality. All she could do was
stare at Kevin.
'I, Kristine, have always been every man's dream. And yet, Kevin refused to kiss me even though I'm
the one who initiated it. How could he dislike me that much?
How ironic!'
"If you still want to talk, then just tell me why you came here. Otherwise, you can just leave!" With that,
Kevin looked down on himself and began tidying his clothes. It looked as if he had just touched
something disgusting.
His reaction irritated Cherry.
"You may hate me now, but don't forget that I used to be the one you loved the most!" Cherry stood up
and began to shout angrily. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
However, Kevin remained calm.
She then took a deep breath, trying to calm down her fury. She reminded herself of her real purpose
and said coldly, "I've come to inform you that I know where Kim hides Bob. I heard him say it once by
chance."
Kristine was a popular female star. Meanwhile, Kim was an up and coming hotshot in A City. The two
often went to the same banquets together. It was only natural that Cherry would overhear a secret or
two during these events.
Kevin was shocked to hear this news. He looked up at Cherry as if seeing her in a new light. 'We have
been looking for Bob for a long time, and yet, we still have no clue where he is. But now, Cherry
knows!'
"Where is he?" Bob's heart was the key to Eddy's life. Kevin couldn't stop himself from sounding
anxious and desperate.
But it was too late. Cherry saw right through him. She could definitely use this to her advantage.
With a smile, she languidly sat on the sofa and crooked her finger at Kevin.
Kevin suddenly stood, frowning. He went towards the sofa and sat opposite Cherry.
"How important is Bob to you, Kevin?" She poured herself a cup of tea and took a sip.
If he was a different man who was faced with such beauty, he wouldn't have been able to control
himself.
But unfortunately, this was Kevin she was talking to!
"Very important," he said, determinedly.
"Is Bob's life more important than Anne's?" Cherry continued to ask.
Kevin frowned at that question. Indeed, Bob's heart could save Eddy's life, but Anne was his wife. She
was just as important as his children. How could he possibly choose between them?
"What on earth do you want from me?" Kevin asked with a frown.
Cherry suddenly laughed. "What do I want? Haven't you always known what I want? You have hurt me
so many times, but I never once blamed you for anything. You know what I want, don't you Kevin?"
It was no secret. Cherry had always wanted Kevin!
Kevin sneered and gave her a serious look. "Maybe you really did love me back when we were young,
but your love has already changed, hasn't it?"
So now, I want you to ask yourself. Do you really love me or do you just love my property? Or maybe,
you just love me now because you lost me?"
Cherry frowned.
"It seems like you haven't thought this through carefully. In the past, being my woman gave you so
much glory. And now, you can't bear to lose such popularity especially since I now have Anne, my
wife." Kevin then shook his head continued, "But anyway, it's all in the past now. I know you well
enough that you only admire vanity and money. You don't love me!"
This was the reason why Kevin chose Anne instead of Cherry!
Anne had always loved Kevin for himself. It was never about what he owned!
"Don't I know my own thoughts? You said you know me. But do you? Really? When did you ever care
about me? You never cared about me. Not in the past. Not even now. You didn't even give me a
chance to show how much I loved you. How dare you say you know me?"
Kevin's words pierced Cherry's heart like sharp daggers. The blade sunk through her heart, leaving her
bleeding and wounded.
Cherry could only glare at Kevin and said, "That woman has always been in your heart. You never took
me seriously!
You're right. I do love your family's property. I admit that. But if you really want to know where the child
is, then you must have sex with me first!"
"What?" Kevin stared at Cherry in shock.
'Is that really Cherry's condition?'
"I believe you heard it!" Cherry felt satisfaction upon seeing Kevin's reaction. She crooked her finger at
him, blinking her eyes sweetly at him. "You won't refuse this condition, right Kevin?
It works to your advantage. Moreover, you can get the information that you want so badly to know!"
She then blew him a kiss and said, "I'll send you the specific time and address for our date. Don't forget
it, alright?"
At last, she began walking outside. But then, she paused and turned around to face Kevin. "Bob's
condition is getting worse. It's beyond the control now. He might die in a few days."
Kevin's heart skipped a beat at that. A look of despair overtook his face. Indeed, he noticed how
abnormally pale Bob looked like in the video.
In fact, when he watched the video, he had a doubt in his heart. 'Bob is just a child. Why would they tie
him up to a chair like that? Was Kim afraid that Bob would escape?'
Finally, the pieces of the puzzle began to fall in place. Kevin now understood everything. It was
possible that Bob was too weak to sit up anymore. And in order to confuse them, Kim forced Bob to sit
there.
Kevin sighed heavily and closed his eyes. 'That poor child!
If Bob dies because of Kim, will Kim keep his heart?'
Kevin's mind was in a jumbled mess. Kim was such a complicated and crazy man. Kevin could never
predict what the man was planning to do!
Nonetheless, they needed to save Bob now!
As soon as he returned home, Kevin immediately told Anne everything before she could relay Selma's
offer. "Cherry came over to the company today. She told me that Bob is dying."
Anne anxiously bit her lips at the news. This was exactly what they were afraid of happening.
If Bob really died there...
They would lose the only heart donor they had.
"I will give the shares that Kim wanted!" At this point, she was on the verge of panicking. "The shares
are of no use in my hands. We should just hand them over to him!"
Even if Kim had asked anything else that was important to her, Anne was willing to give it to him, let
alone the shares.
"Calm down, Anne. We shouldn't be impulsive about this!" Kevin could only look at Anne helplessly and
continued, "Cherry said that she only overheard Kim say that, but I'm afraid that this might just be one
of Kim's plans."
"Is there anything wrong with the company's shares?" Anne turned around.
Kevin could only nod reluctantly. "Everything seems to be normal, but I found a few inconsistencies. I'm
afraid that Kim already owns a lot of shares now."
Did Kim do this to steal the AN Group?
Anne suddenly felt cold all over. At the very beginning, Kim had a problem with his capital. He wanted
to use Anne to get a hold on Kevin's property. But now that Kim's problem in capital was solved, was
he planning to buy out Kevin's company instead?
