Chapter 381 Cherry vs. Kristine (Part Two)
Chapter 381 Cherry vs. Kristine (Part Two)
In the Fu Family's house, Anne googled Cherry on the Internet after she had seen her on TV. She was even more surprised at what she read about her.
She discovered that Cherry had been out of prison for three years now and in those years, she had made a lot of connections. Her sweet appearance and exquisite acting skills quickly got recognized by fans.
“I get a headache every time I see Cherry.” The TV was playing with Cherry as the main character. Displeasure quickly flashed in Selma's eyes.
Turning to Selma with a smile, Anne said, “Mom, in this world, many things are predestined. I can neither fight nor take away what is destined to not belong to me. I understand now that I should return what I owe to others.”
Selma looked at Anne in surprise. She didn't know how to explain to a person who was just injected with medication.
At the side, Eddy's face contorted in turmoil. He was aware that the person his mother hated would become the one she liked and vice versa. Even then, he knew that she shouldn't treat Cherry so nicely.
After all, Cherry left a terrible impression on Eddy. If it weren't for that woman, his mother wouldn't have to suffer so much. Now…
A moment of hesitation held him back, but he slowly stepped forward. He held his mother's hand while she remained confused.
“What's wrong?” Curious, Anne asked with a smile. She rubbed his head while she waited for him to speak.
The boy frowned, looked at Cherry on the TV and firmly said, “Mom, that woman is a bad person. You shouldn't get in touch with her no matter what!”
The staunch request made Anne lose her smile. She looked at the gorgeous woman on TV and squinted slightly.
Figments of the past were slightly hovering in her mind but when she tried to focus on them, her memory persisted to be a little vague.
Cherry was Kevin's wife before. If it weren't for her harassing, a lot of things wouldn't have happened between them.
But from the point of view of Eddy, the disadvantages of having contact with Cherry were the only things he could see. He was repulsed to think about people like her.
Anne nodded and smiled at him. She then held him in her arms and coaxed him softly, “You're right Eddy.”
He wanted to say something more but ultimately decided against it. Anne was being absent-minded, so he had to shut up. He frowned and turned to look at Selma instead.
Powerlessly, Selma shook her head and went upstairs. What Anne did just now was completely beyond Selma's understanding.
Tonight, Anne spent her time watching Cherry's work while waiting for Kevin. The divorce had been delayed for a while now and she knew that she couldn't let it go on like this. She must divorce Kevin as soon as possible!
Watching the clock, Anne realized that it was already late at night. Still, Kevin hadn't come back yet.
She dialed his number with a slight frown. On the other side of the phone, Kevin answered in a tired voice, “Anne? What's up? Why aren't you asleep yet?”
Honestly, Kevin knew why she was awake. Nevertheless, he was still concerned about her.
“It's late already. Why haven't you come home yet?” Not wanting to waste any more time, Anne directly asked him what she wanted to know. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Kevin smiled and said, “I have something to settle in the company today. I won't go back. Just go to bed early, you don't have to wait for me.”
Anger flared up her body and she gritted her teeth. She had been waiting for such a long time. She didn't expect that Kevin was not coming home tonight!
In addition, she thought he was also trying to avoid her.
Still agitated, Anne made up her mind to divorce him and come back to Kim. She would do everything in her power to make this possible even though Kevin was trying his best to avoid her.
Next day, Anne casually browsed her phone as soon as she woke up. Something caught her eyes that made her eyebrows raise slightly.
Because she had been paying special attention to Cherry, she inevitably came across the news about her and Kevin having dinner together.
The photo showed the two of them clearly. Cherry was holding a wine glass with a sweet and beautiful smile while Kevin was expressionless. However, the look he gave her was undeniably affectionate.
Those two…
Although Anne wanted to smile, she found it a bit hard to do so. Her heart was resisting it.
This was odd because the truth was, she should be glad that Cherry was in touch with Kevin. Because if they were to reunite, Kevin would easily and happily divorce her. She should be glad about that right? That would be worthy of celebration. Despite that though, the photo of them still brought her unhappiness.
Indeed, there was a voice from inside her heart telling her that she was displeased about it!
But why? Why was she feeling unhappy? To clear her thoughts, she shook her head. She yawned soon after too.
Perhaps her tiredness was deceiving her. Maybe that was why she had those feelings. She stood up and decided to walk towards her room.
During that time, Selma got a look at the photo too. Her face fell and her expression became hard. She immediately called Kevin. In a very assertive tone she said, “Kevin, I'm warning you. Do not do stupid things. I have now accepted Anne as my daughter-in-law, I will never accept Cherry.
What's more, you know how terrible she is! How could you reconnect with this woman? We are actually being kind. It's because of our mercy that her identity hasn't been exposed. We can send her back to prison!
A long time has passed but whenever I think of what happened before, I still grit my teeth with hatred. What does she think of us? Idiots? In addition, think about what she could do. Don't you think she is far too insidious and horrible? If you let that woman come back to our family, our world will turn upside down again.
I don't know until when the drug's effects can wear off on Anne, but we're experiencing peace right now. If you bring Cherry back, there is no doubt that our family will be in chaos!”
Hearing Selma's raging voice, Kevin shook his head exasperatedly. He had never loved Cherry even once in his life. Why on earth would he love her now?
Therefore, there was nothing to worry about. He didn't even hesitate to comfort her, “Mom, don't worry. No matter what happens, I won't like Cherry nor bring her into the Fu Family!”
