Renewal Of Love

Chapter 462 The Third Party To The Love Triangle

Upon returning home, Anne found that the children were not at home and had gone out with Selma for

a small outing.

With an exasperated sigh, Anne lay on the couch, looking into the distance.

If her reputation only affected her, she would not care about what was reported so much. But her

reputation affected the entire Fu Family, especially Kevin and her children.

Therefore, she resolved that she would have to do something to stop people from calling her a slut and

remove the bad name from their stories.

But what could she do?

All of a sudden, she was taken into the embrace of strong, warm arms. The smell was so comfortingly

familiar. Without having to look, she knew it was her Kevin.

"What's on your mind?" The breath coming out of Kevin's mouth swept over Anne's neck, which made

her feel ticklish. She couldn't help letting out a giggle and replying lightly, "Nothing."

"Those who are dishonest will suffer punishment." With a smirk, Kevin put his hand on Anne's belly,

threatening to tickle her sensitive belly area.

Anne couldn't help but giggle. Shaking off Kevin's hand, she said helplessly, "Today we met Cherry in

the mall. The reporters that followed her interviewed me. In their eyes, I'm still a loose woman."

Kevin knew what Anne was speaking about when this topic was brought up. He exhaled heavily and

held Anne close to him.

He always felt guilty about what Anne was going through in respect of this matter.

As a man, it was his duty to protect his wife, as well as his children. Instead, he had caused them many

tribulations.

Anne suffered this way because she wanted to help him finally get rid of Kim from their lives.

"I have been thinking about a solution for this matter but I have just been met with dead ends." Kevin

could not think of anything which would solve their problem.

He had spent many hours agonizing over the issue, alas to no avail.

With a slight smile of encouragement on her face, Anne replied, "This isn't a matter that has a quick fix.

We will have to be patient with ourselves and give it proper thought. There is always a way."

Kevin nodded in agreement. He ran his fingers affectionately across her forehead when something

caught his eye.

There was a deep scar on her forehead. It was quite visible.

"Anne, let's make an appointment with a beauty therapist to remove this scar," said Kevin, quite

suddenly.

Raising her eyebrows, Anne ran her fingers over the scar. It was due to this blemish that she had to

keep her long bangs to cover it.

Anne had quite a youthful appearance. The bangs made her look even younger than usual.

To be honest, she didn't mind the scar as long as it was covered. She actually only remembered it was

even there only because Kevin had brought it up. She sometimes completely forgot she had it.

The scar was a symbol and a painful reminder of bad times.

Then, Anne nodded. "Okay."

The bad memories were in the past and she intended leaving those memories, along with the pain it

brought, in the past - she was not going to let it intrude into her present. There was no need to leave

the scar to be an ugly reminder of the events that had transpired.

Kevin nodded his head. He had already consulted a dermatologist about Anne's scar. It could be

completely removed without leaving any trace.

After Selma returned with the kids, Kevin and Anne returned to their normal selves. After a wonderful

meal, they watched a cartoon with the kids before turning in for the night.

Sally and Simon were too young to attend kindergarten. As for Eddy, he was ripe for school but his stint

abroad had delayed his enrolment in certain courses.

Anne had initially thought that Eddy would have to work much harder to try and keep up. But time

proved her wrong, as his abilities far exceeded what she expected of him.

Eddy was precocious and highly intelligent. He learned anything after being taught just once. So he

was not really studying too hard in kindergarten but just passing the time with the other kids.

He was still the best among all the children in terms of academics although he had missed schooling

for a short time.

When everyone realized Eddy's ability, they were very proud.

Selma even praised Eddy to her usual group of ladies who she often met, which made the other ladies

feel jealous of her.

The ladies knew that Selma was not exaggerating as they were well aware that all her grandchildren

were very intelligent. They were good-looking and well-behaved, as well. Everyone could not help but

feel affection for them.

They thought that Selma was indeed fortunate to have these lovely grandchildren.

Meanwhile, Anne had an appointment at the beauty salon. Kevin was going to accompany her but an

urgent matter arose at the company and she had to go on her own.

It wasn't a big deal for Anne. She was fine to make the trip on her own.

Since everyone at the salon knew that Anne was Kevin's wife, they tried to flatter her constantly in the

hope that they could secure her as a regular client.

With a pleasant smile, Anne remained unaffected by the complements. She listened to them with due

attention but did not take heed of the various product names they threw at her.

God favors some people in this regard. Anne applied skin products only occasionally yet her skin

always remained flawless and glowing.

Anne didn't really need to come to the salon, in all honesty.

But she did not expect what happened next. She spotted Cherry in the salon.

Cherry was also taken aback. She really hadn't expected to see Anne two days in a row. She thought

that her luck was quite bad.

But since she had run into Anne yet again, she decided that she would speak her mind.

She approached Anne, addressing her in a lowered voice, "Do you have a free minute? Let's have a

chat."

Looking at Cherry up and down, Anne raised her eyebrows and said with a faint smile, "Kristine, if my

memory serves me right, there seems to be nothing to talk about between us."

Cherry's face darkened. She pursed her lips and looked expectantly at the beautician beside her. The

beautician was well aware of the bad blood between Cherry and Anne, so she left them quickly to give

them some privacy.

Cherry was a distinguished client at the salon. If the beautician offended Cherry, she would definitely Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

be fired. Even Anne was not someone she ought to offend, so she decided it best to take her leave as

soon as possible. She retreated into the distance.

Anne sat aside and looked at Cherry, who sighed helplessly. Cherry lowered her head and said sadly,

"Anne, I lost again."

Anne raised her eyebrows and looked at Cherry in surprise.

"I thought I would have a chance to get Kevin back after changing my identity, but now I know it's just

wishful thinking." Cherry bit her lip and then said, "Anne, I know I have done a lot of wrong things in the

past but please don't reveal my true identity to anyone."

At first, Cherry was very confident that her identity wouldn't be exposed. After all, Kim was so powerful.

Now that Kim was dead and she had no one to protect her, she felt anxious.

Now she was the most popular female celebrity in the entertainment world. The entire public adored

her. If her true identity were to be revealed, she was done for. She would have to return to the hellish

place from where she'd come and would never make her way back to her lofty position again.

The prospect of losing everything was painful.

She would not be able to endure it.

Due to this, she had avoided Anne and left with the paparazzi at their last meeting.

Raising her eyebrows and looking directly at Cherry, Anne smiled and asked in confusion, "When did I

compete with you?

Since there was no competition, there can't be a winner or loser."

Cherry opened her mouth slightly and looked at Anne in confusion. 'What did she mean?

Doesn't she want to forgive me?' Cherry pursed her lips and looked at Anne imploring her for

forgiveness.

"Cherry, do you know why you can still stand here?" Anne asked.

Confused, Cherry shook her head.

At the moment when Kim's real identity was exposed, Cherry had a bad feeling that she would return to

prison.

However, Anne and Kevin seemed to have forgotten her existence and hadn't done anything to her yet.

Their failure to do anything had actually caused her even greater anxiety.

"Cherry, you are the one who constantly provoked Kevin and me. We never had any interest in causing

any trouble with you. We really don't care about what you've done as long as you don't make the

mistake of trying to interfere with us again. We won't cause any trouble for you as long as you keep

your distance. Understand?" Standing up, Anne looked directly into Cherry's eyes and clearly said to

her, "There is no winner or loser between us because I have never considered you as a third party,

creating some love triangle. We were never rivals in this respect. I have never had to compete with the

likes of you."

Cherry was slightly shocked. Her face darkened.

She knew what Anne was saying. It was clear that Kevin only loved Anne and did not care for her. She

wasn't qualified to compete for Kevin's love as he had no feelings for her.

Anne was quite aware of the strength of her and Kevin's love. She knew that she was in his heart and

no one could compete with her.

Cherry had seen Anne as the other woman, who she had to compete with in love. But it was now clear

to her that Anne did not even consider to be worthy of such a role.

'What an insult! How could she insult me and place herself loftily above me?'

Cherry gritted her teeth. She wanted to make a harsh retort but reminded herself of her position. She

took a deep breath and held back the anger bubbling beneath the surface. She replied with a fake

smile, "In that case, you can rest assured that I will not do anything to provoke you again. Let me keep

my distance, and I hope that you will please keep my true identity secret."

After saying that, Cherry turned around and left.

Looking at Cherry's back, Anne smiled and shook her head. She was telling the truth, not insulting

Cherry.

What was this so-called love triangle? In order for there to be a love triangle, three parties needed to be

involved - Kevin needed to have affection for both her and Cherry. But Kevin had never had feelings for

Cherry so she could not rival Anne in love.

Anne just told Cherry what she genuinely believed and knew to be true.

She sighed and shook the stress of the situation from her mind. She was over it now. The beauty

therapist came in and started the scar-removal process.

The scar removal was not painful. Anne lay there with her eyes close and fell asleep of her own

volition.

When she awoke, she peered at her forehead, noticing it was slightly red. The beauty therapist advised

her, "Such a scar will not be completely removed in one sitting. You will need two or three treatments

for complete removal."

She advised Anne of the dos and don'ts relating to her skin now that she had treated the scar and

confirmed their next appointment. Anne was mindful of the advice. She then left the salon.

She was going to call a cab to go back home, but she suddenly saw a familiar car in the lot.

"I thought you were busy today. Why are you here?" After getting into the car, Anne questioned Kevin.

Kevin smiled, "No matter how important work may be, it will never be as important as my wife."

As Anne heard this, a smile appeared on her face.

Kevin took her to a gourmet restaurant for dinner. He called Selma and told her not to wait for them for

dinner.

Although they had been married for many years and had three lovely children, they still enjoyed

spending quality time, just the two of them.

Having these intimate dates was what kept their relationship happy and made them even closer.
