Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 169 Her Foul Secret

It was six o'clock in the late afternoon when Kevin went out to look for Cherry. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

It was already dark, as if rain was about to pour at any time.

When the car stopped at the community where Cherry lived, Kevin quickly informed her. A few minutes later, she came to him with a surprised look.

She hugged him tightly and said, "Kevin, you're finally here! I thought you wouldn't come."

Her tone sounded a bit aggrieved, but Kevin just mercilessly pushed her hand away.

"Let's go somewhere." Despite the cheerfulness that she had shown Kevin, he spoke in a cold manner and quickly got into the car.

Cherry smiled lightly and also got in. She could assure that Kevin still cared about her, but what about Anne? Well, she perceived her as a joke in the Ye Clan and someone Kevin would never love.

"Kevin, where are we going?" It was a rare opportunity for her to have an intimate moment with Kevin recently, so she took the advantage and seduced him in the car. She slightly pushed her sexy body towards him.

However, Kevin seemed to dislike what she was doing. He felt disgusted towards her. He knew that it was her own kind of way to attract him with her well-defined body, which was not interesting at all.

"Behave yourself if you don't want to get out of the car!" After learning her true identity, he already had a bad impression of the Ye Clan.

"Okay, I'll do whatever you say." Cherry still looked at him with a smile on her face, but when she recognized the place that they were passing by, her face suddenly turned pale, and the smile on her face fleeted.

"Kevin, why are we here?" The place was where Kevin had a car accident. Cherry began to tremble with fear.

This was also the place where her mother died. She pushed her mother under the car. She was so scared, so she hid herself immediately. When she showed up, unfortunately, her mother didn't make it to the hospital because of her, and the scene had been cordoned off.

Her mother died on the spot and she cried so hard in front Kevin. She made him believe that her mother saved him and chose to sacrifice her life for him. She did it to have his heart on purpose, so that no matter what happened, he would always remember that he owed his life to her mother and he was obliged to care for her for the rest of his life.

It was a secret she kept deep in her heart. She was really scared when she revisited the place. Her nerves were constantly on edge.

After that devastating accident, she always had nightmares. Others thought that it was because she had seen her mother's death with her own eyes, but they were all definitely wrong with what they thought of her. She frequently had nightmares because her mother kept appearing in it, asking her why she killed her.

"What? You look like you've seen a ghost. What's the matter?" Kevin asked and furrowed his eyebrows.

His expression made her even more scared. "N-no, I'm not afraid. I just feel a little sad when I remembered what happened on this road."

She was afraid that he might know something that was why he took her on this road. However, she came to think of it, what if he really knew something about the past? What would she do?

The more she thought about it, the more flustered her face was.

What she was thinking was definitely out of Kevin's mind. He was thinking that she was afraid that her biological father would be exposed.

This was the way to the residence of her biological father. Kevin had just known the entire information about him an hour ago. He took Cherry with him not to directly expose her, but to observe her reactions first.

"Let's go back, Kevin. I'm afraid," Cherry said anxiously.

She thought that if she pretended to be pitiful, Kevin would sympathize with her. But that did not happen. He thought that she had been keeping a lot of things to herself, so he had to make a painstaking investigation to figure out what she had done.

"What are you afraid of? Am I gonna hurt you?" Kevin smiled teasingly and spoke in a cold manner.

"No, I'm not afraid of anything when I am with you." Cherry tried to revoke what she said earlier and spoke calmly.

She was just trying to please him, but she was really terrified.

When the car had passed by the same exact road where the accident happened, she gradually calmed down. She looked carefully ahead with the fear of turning back. However, it was not the end of facing her fears.

Just a short moment later, the car entered a quiet alley. It was her biological father's residence.

"Kevin, what are you doing?" Her heart was almost in her mouth. She looked straight into his eyes with panic.

"Nothing. I'm here to visit an old friend. Do you know him, Devin?" Kevin knew how every word he said scared the hell out of Cherry. He smiled evilly and looked into her eyes full of fear.

"Devin? Who told you that? Did Anne tell you that? Devin is not my father. Don't listen to her nonsense." In Cherry's heart, the only person who knew this secret was Anne, so she had no one to blame but her.

"Really?" said Kevin in a doubtful tone.

Cherry nodded immediately and said tearfully, "Yes. I don't know where Anne heard the news. She knows that you and I are closer, so she deliberately told you such things to hurt me."

She always thought that Kevin would never figure out her hypocrisy, that she was always good at lying. However, in his mind, she was the kind of woman who didn't know her position, and he thought of her as the stupidest woman for being like that.

It was not like he was more intimidated with her. It was all a joke for her to think that way.

He had already understood why Anne despised her so much. It was because of her foul attitude, full of lies, a hypocrite woman indeed! As for what he was told that Anne was the one who caused the death of her uncle, maybe it was the malice of slander.

He was hoping that Anne wasn't involved in any schemes. He loved her but he chose to resist her because of how she appeared vicious in front of everyone for what she had done. These contradicting emotions were entangled in his heart, leaving his mind no peace at all. It was also the reason as to why he didn't dare to deepen his love for Anne before.

In spite of knowing that Anne might be a bad person, he still wanted to protect her.

"But, Anne didn't tell me anything. I just knew Devin at a gambling party. Do you know him?" Kevin asked and raised his eyebrows.

Cherry's face darkened immediately. She suddenly ran out of words.

"No, how could I know him?" She said uneasily when she noticed the sarcasm in his smile.

The atmosphere in the car became gloomier.

Kevin felt nothing but hatred towards the woman beside him. She was a disgusting liar.

"Then why did you say that Anne told me that Devin was your father?" Kevin asked coldly. His voice sounded so oppressive that she didn't dare to speak.

After a long time, she calmed down and continued to frame Anne up. "Because at that time, Anne said that she would have a way to tell everyone that I am not the daughter of the Ye Clan. If you don't believe me, you can ask Devin and see if he colluded with Anne to frame me. If so, you must sue them both for that."

On a second thought, she came up with a solution. She didn't care about her biological father anymore. In fact, she would even like it if Kevin would help her get rid of her own father. In that case, no one would threaten her anymore.

"So you think that someone is setting you up?" Kevin squinted at her. His face was calm and there was no hint of anger.

"Of course someone framed me. Kevin, don't listen to others' words."

Suddenly, Kevin's voice became sharp. "Are you still lying at this time?

Look at this." He threw the document that Sam gave him.

Cherry didn't know what the document was about. When she opened it, her eyes widened.

"Kevin, are you testing me on purpose?" Cherry gnashed her teeth. She couldn't believe that the person she had always wanted to have was capable of exposing her like this.

"So what, Cherry? I have always thought that you were just like your mother. I didn't expect that you are such a scheming and vicious woman. How dare you lie to everyone?" Kevin said, now with a hint of anger.

However, Cherry didn't take this seriously. She even laughed so loud. "I'm vicious. Yes, I am totally vicious. When I knew that Devin was my father, I almost turned crazy. I'm the daughter of the Ye Clan. How could I be a daughter of such a shameless man? I have always hated my mother for giving birth to me."

All of a sudden, Kevin slapped her face so hard in the middle of her nonsense speaking.

"That's enough. Now that you're here, you can go and have a talk with your drunkard father." With that, he parked the car in front of Devin's house and pulled her out.

"Who are you? Cherry, why are you here?" When Devin heard the noise outside, He angrily opened the door. He became more upset when he saw Cherry.

"Where is the money I want?" He saw a graceful young man standing next to Cherry. He knew that the man beside Cherry was rich and powerful.

"I don't have any money. It's not the right time to ask for money. I'm no longer the daughter of the Ye Clan and I don't have a job. All of my family's property has been squandered by you. What else do you want?" Cherry replied coldly.

Devin glared at Cherry and said, "You are so beautiful. I'm sure that you can always find men and ask them for money."

Devin never recognized her as his daughter. The only thing that kept him in touch with her was the fact that she had a lot of money.

Kevin didn't want to interfere with their mess, so he turned around and was about to leave.

But Cherry held his hand and said, "Kevin, I know I was wrong, but you can't leave me here alone. I'm sure you wouldn't want to see me die in this place, right? I admit that I was a liar, but I don't want to end up here. You promised my mother that you would take care of me, so please, don't leave me, okay?"

At this point in time, Kevin seemed to be frozen at place. He didn't say a word, as if he was thinking about something.

Cherry, on the other side, was extremely nervous. She was anxious that he would leave her there. If that happened, she would be like living in hell.

"Get in the car. I'll help you for the sake of your mother for the last time," Kevin said.

But then, Devin shouted at the top of his lungs, "Who are you? How dare you take my daughter away? Stay here, or I'll sue you for taking her away."

Kevin sneered and confidently said, "Just go and sue me. I'd like to see who dares to say that she is really your daughter."
