Renewal Of Love

Chapter 153 Kick Him Out

There was a frown on Kevin's face as he stared at Anne and the baby. Anger filled Anne as she

couldn't help but feel so frustrated. If Kevin treated the child better, she wouldn't have been angry even

if they didn't love each other. Now from the way the baby looked at him, it was as if he was looking at a

complete stranger.

"Why are you still here?" Her body tensed as she sneered at him through her teeth. It took all her

strength not to push and kick him out right this instant.

Looking at the petite woman's hostility, Kevin was naturally starting to get angry once more. However,

his strong feelings for Anne resurfaced in his heart, and all the fury he had subsided.

'Damn it!' Slowly, he withdrew his hand.

A second later, his sense of pride rose in him and he retorted matter-of-factly, "You are so ungrateful."

Every time Anne challenged him like this, he felt utterly helpless. In fact, all the patience that he had in

him was all because of her doing.

Still, he wondered when this woman would finally warm up to him.

With a grunt, he strode over to his bedroom, slamming the door behind him with a loud bang. In the

other room, Cherry heard the commotion and decided to see what was happening.

As she slowly opened the door, she pretended to rub her eyes, pretending as if she had been

awakened by the noise.

"What are you doing here?" Kevin asked coldly.

Even though he had his back to her, he was still as intimidating as ever.

"I thought I heard something just now, so I came to check it out. Are you okay?" Walking over, she

placed her soft hands into his.

There was so much resentment in Kevin's heart right now that it was almost unbearable for him to hear

her voice ringing in his ears. The moment she held his hand, he shook her off forcibly. It was enough to

make Cherry stagger back a little.

It was beyond her anticipation that he would do something like that to her. At once, she pretended to be

sad as she looked at him with her tearful eyes.

"Kevin... I just care about you. How can you do this to me?" Her small mouth was turned down into a

pitiful pout as tears streamed down her face.

Unfortunately, Kevin was not the type of person who had any affinity towards women he didn't like.

Right now, Cherry was no longer the person he loved. No matter what she did or how sad she looked,

there wasn't an ounce of pity in his heart for her.

"Get out of my room. Leave me alone," he hissed at her, completely ignoring her tears. The only thing

in his mind was Anne, how she was so stubborn, beautiful, and definitely one of a kind. But none of her

images in his mind was gentle.

'Damn it! Can't she be gentle for once in her life?!'

Sitting down at the edge of the bed, Kevin ran his fingers through his hair in frustration. This made

Cherry think that he was mad at her. With a small sigh, she forced a faint smile.

"Kevin, can't we just go back to the way things were? We were so happy before Anne came back. Is it

worth it for a woman who doesn't even love you?" Cherry asked, unwilling to give up.

Unfortunately, these words only made him angrier. He tried his best not to lose his temper. After all, he

owed so much to Cherry's mother.

"Don't make me say it again. Get out."

"Kevin--"

"Fuck off!" His voice boomed loudly in the room.

Knowing better than to push his limits, Cherry gritted her teeth and stormed out.

As soon as she closed the door, her tearful face was replaced with a cold look. 'This is all that woman's

fault! I won't let her get away with this. She's the reason why I'm like this in the first place. I'll never let

that bitch go!'

Meanwhile, in Anne's room, everything was so much more serene and peaceful. The lamp on the

bedside table warmly lit up the faces of the mother and child.

Some time that night, however, the baby suddenly began to cry. Immediately, Anne woke up and

walked over to him. He wailed and frowned, as if he was feeling incredible pain.

Even tears were starting to stream down his delicate face.

Carefully, she took him in her arms. "Shh, don't cry... Baby, don't cry. Are you hungry? Let me feed you,

okay?" Any mother would feel sorry for their crying child. Her heart ached and her face turned pale as

she wondered how she could make him feel better.

"What's wrong with the baby?" All of a sudden, Kevin's voice came through. Turning around, there she

saw him coming through the door.

Anne was stunned. It was already two o'clock in the morning, and yet he came in as soon as the baby

cried.

"I don't know." As she saw the baby crying like this, she thought there was no room to quarrel anymore.

Carefully, she pressed her cheek against the baby's soft face to check if he had a fever.

"I'm going to call Sam," Kevin said.

Even though he didn't really like Sam, his priority was making Anne feel better. There was an anxious

look on her face that made him feel so helpless. So, without any hesitation, he turned around and went

outside to make a phone call.

Despite this, he knew that Anne would be able to handle this situation well. In his eyes, stubborn as

she might be, she was also a strong woman.

Before long, Sam arrived at Kevin's house.

"What's wrong with Anne?" It had been a few month since Sam came back here. Knowing that Anne

was staying here, he thought that Kevin had called him because something had happened to her.

"It's the baby. He's been crying nonstop. Go and have a look," said Kevin.

With a nod, Sam moved to enter the room when Kevin suddenly put his hand on his shoulder. "Look, I

won't pursue the matter that you helped Anne lie to me before. But if anything like that happens again,

don't blame me if I no longer treat you as a friend."

A scornful look flashed in Sam's eyes, but it disappeared quickly enough for Kevin not to notice.

There had been some tension between the two ever since Anne came back.

"Kevin, she's not only your wife, you know... She's the mother of your child, and also my good friend. I

don't think you care about her enough. Even I sometimes think that you have gone too far from the way

you treated her. I don't think there is anything wrong if I treat her well. That's just how men should treat

women. That's my opinion, at least."

From the way Sam saw it, Anne was the way she was because of the rough childhood she went

through. A person usually had their walls up because they had gotten deeply hurt in the past.

With this in mind, he thought that a cold and hard woman was more pitiful than a tearful and delicate

one.

'Woman?' Kevin scoffed in his mind. 'Does Anne even think that she's a woman herself? If that's true,

why doesn't she act like a woman at all? She's done nothing but go against me. Hell, she's even more

cruel and merciless than my hypocritical business partners!'

However, Kevin said nothing more, and just gave a stern look at Sam. After all, Sam was right. Anne

was the mother of his child and the woman he loved.

Without caring about what Kevin was going to do, Sam pushed the door open and walked in. The first

thing he heard was the wailing baby. On the bed, he saw Anne trying to comfort the child. The soft light

shining on her face made her look so helpless.

This scene deeply touched Sam's heart. Even Kevin was moved, as it was rare for him to see her so

vulnerable.

"Don't worry, Anne. Let me have a look." Gently, Sam took the child from Anne and touched his head.

"The baby has a slight fever. But don't worry. It's a common thing for children."

Taking out a stethoscope from his bag, he listened to the baby's heartbeat.

"I just checked a while ago and it didn't feel that hot," Anne said worriedly.

"It's indeed difficult to feel a slight fever in a child," Sam replied with a reassuring smile. "When babies

have a fever, their temperature difference isn't that big as compared to an older child or an adult.

Besides, a baby's resistance is really usually weaker."

"Is it serious?"

Although Anne believed his words, she still couldn't help but worry. The baby had been crying nonstop,

and his voice was starting to get hoarse.

"I don't think it's anything we should be too worried about. Take some antipyretics for the child first, and

then I'll give him a general examination," he instructed.

In truth, he knew that there was no need to do an examination. The child's fever was not at all

alarming. But, for the sake of Anne's peace, he decided to do an examination nevertheless.

"Okay."

Not long after the baby took the medicine, he had fallen asleep. Slowly, his breathing became more

even and steady. As Sam carefully examined him, Anne quietly asked questions on how to take better

care of the baby.

The two of them looked so nice to look at. By the door, Kevin watched them closely, feeling the utmost

jealousy in his heart. Although he was upset at how they looked so harmonious, he could not afford to Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

lose his temper now. After all, he was the one who had called Sam to come over.

Still, he couldn't help but wonder why she was being nice to someone who wasn't him.

'If she had just been a good, obliging woman, things wouldn't have been like this!' he thought, his heart

filled with malice.

What made it all the more frustrating was that no matter how much Anne pushed him away, he was still

deeply attracted to her. It was as if there was no way he could extricate himself from her.

"Why is Sam here, Kevin?" All of a sudden, Cherry's voice came from behind him. As long as she could

find a reason, she would go stay with him as much as possible.

"The baby has a fever. I've asked Sam to go check on him." It wasn't his plan to talk again to Cherry.

But seeing that the two other people in the bedroom were talking so happily, he figured that he would

be less embarrassed if he had someone to talk to as well.

"Oh my God! The baby's sick?" Cherry exclaimed. Undoubtedly, she was good at feigning emotions as

she pretended to feel sorry for the baby.

This made Kevin feel a little less adverse towards her.

But then, a serious look appeared on Cherry's face. "Come here," she said in a low voice as she

tugged on his arm. "I have something important to tell you."

Although his instinct was to shake her off, he figured that talking to her was better than spending

another second seeing Anne and Sam getting together so well.

However, even though Anne was asking Sam questions and looking over at the baby, she was still

paying attention to what Kevin was doing outside.

She had seen how Cherry held Kevin's hand, and couldn't help but sneer.

"Anne?" Sam asked when she suddenly went quiet.

"Yes? Uhhh, right. So are you sure there's really no other problems with the baby's health?" Snapping

out of it, she returned her attention back to the baby.

"There's no way to say for sure, but as of now, you have nothing to worry about yet." As much as Sam

wanted Anne not to worry, it was practice for doctors not to guarantee their patients that everything was

going to be okay. People's bodies change, after all, and there might be complications that a doctor

might not be able to see at first glance.

"All right."

"Please untie the baby's clothes for me." Although he knew that a thorough, general checkup could

only be done with advanced hospital equipment, there were still some problems that could be

discerned with a trained eye. It wouldn't be a problem even if a formal checkup was done a few days

later.

With a nod, Anne went over to the thermostat first to raise the room's temperature. She wasn't about to

take chances and allow the baby to catch a cold.

Afterward, she gently removed the baby's clothes, not wanting to wake him up from his sleep.

"Did... did the baby always have a birthmark like that?" Anne asked. There was a bruise-colored mark

on the edge of the child's butt.

Because of the cold weather, she had always changed the baby's clothes in a hurry, and this was the

first time she had seen this mark on her child's skin.
