Renewal Of Love

Since Kevin forced her to stay, Anne had no other choice but to obey.

Anne seemed a little irritated while sitting on the bed. If she stayed, she would have to face the two of them showing off their love every day.

Her heart was not made of stone. It hurt to see the man she loved holding another woman in his arms.

He had never chosen to believe her. She was his legal wife, but her presence was not needed here.

It was almost a sleepless night. On the second day, when Anne woke up, she looked into the mirror and noticed a pair of dark circles under her eyes.

The swelling of her ankle had almost disappeared, and it was no longer as painful as before.

When she came downstairs to have breakfast, she thought that she would see Cherry and Kevin openly flirting with each other again, but this time she only saw Cherry. Kevin was not around. With her eyebrows creased together, Anne walked towards the table one step at a time without looking at Cherry.

In fact, when she went downstairs, Cherry had already noticed her. The moment she saw Anne, disdain and resentment filled her bright eyes.

"Anne, didn't you sleep well last night? Why are there dark circles under your eyes? Aren't you used to living here yet?"

Cherry asked derisively, as if she was the lady of the house.

Anne looked at her indifferently and said,

"This is also my home. How can I not get used to living here? How about you, cousin? Did you sleep well last night knowing that I'm here?"

Anne knew that Cherry was trying to create a rift between her and Kevin. She also knew that Cherry was afraid that Kevin would keep her around.

She must be very unhappy when she slept here last night.

"Why would I be uncomfortable? You're my cousin, and you're pregnant with Kevin's child. Of course there is no inconvenience for me to look after you if you live here," Cherry said with a fake smile. She was a total hypocrite who tried to be sympathetic in front of Anne while stabbing her on the back.

"Thank you so much, cousin. I'd like to express my gratitude in advance for that."

Anne just smiled deceptively, and continued to eat her breakfast.

Cherry was a bit pissed off. She frowned as Anne ignored her, but in an instant it was replaced by a sweet smile.

"Anne, look at my bracelet. Isn't it beautiful? This is a gift from Kevin. Its name is Lifetime Love. I didn't expect him to care about me so much."

There was a smug look on Cherry's face as she held the diamond bracelet on her wrist in front of Anne.

She knew that Anne still had feelings for Kevin and she wanted to make her jealous.

Anne felt her heart aching again when she glanced at the diamond bracelet on Cherry's wrist.

The bracelet was as beautiful as its name, Lifetime Love. Cherry must be the love of Kevin's life, while she meant nothing to him.

"It's fine as long as you think it's beautiful!"

Anne didn't show that she was hurt. Of course, she knew that Cherry was just trying to piss her off and she didn't want to satisfy her by showing her weakness. Seeing Anne emotionless like it was all nothing to her, Cherry was still unwilling to give up, so she spoke again.

"In fact, I think it's just ordinary. But Kevin promised that he would design our rings by himself when we get married."

Genuine bliss can be traced on Cherry's face which completely tore Anne's heart into pieces.

When they get married? Had Kevin decided to marry her already?

Did he really want to kick her out so soon?

Anne wore a stolid expression and didn't say anything, as if she hadn't heard Cherry's words at all. Cherry wanted to see the pain in her, but she managed to hide it.

Although she looked calm, her hand was slightly trembling as she held her chopsticks. Cherry was very observant, she immediately noticed the uneasiness in Anne. She couldn't help but feel victorious.

"Anne, I hope you can attend our wedding. After all, we are family. I don't want to get married without the blessing from my family.

Cherry looked at her sincerely. However, Anne could clearly see the blatant mockery in the eyes of her cousin.

Anne couldn't control her anger anymore. When she was about to lash out, she heard Kevin's voice coming from behind her. "Cherry, have you finished your breakfast?" Kevin walked over to Cherry and glanced at Anne when he passed her by.

"Not yet. I'm waiting for you so that we can eat together." Cherry clung to Kevin and looked at him gently.

"My Cherry, you are so thoughtful..." While looking at Cherry tenderly, Kevin kissed her forehead.

"Hey, what are you doing? Anne is still here." Cherry sheepishly nudged Kevin.

Kevin turned her eyes to Anne who was eating quietly without any emotion on her face.

"It's none of her business. Come on, let's eat. Don't starve yourself."

Kevin's cold attitude towards Anne made Cherry feel triumphant. She was certain that she was the most important person in his heart. Anne found her breakfast tasteless and bland. The vegetables in her bowl were almost all greens, without a single piece of meat.

In order to nourish the baby inside Anne, her breakfast was changed into vegetable dishes and nutritious soup.

However, Anne didn't change her living habits. She still kept on eating light foods.

While glancing at Anne, Kevin frowned and wondered how this woman could eat only green vegetables.

Without any hesitation, Kevin picked up a piece of sweet and sour spareribs and put it into Anne's bowl.

"You are too thin. Eat more nutritious foods."

Thinking of the time when she was kidnapped, Kevin remembered that she barely weighed anything when he carried her on his back. He felt distressed out of the blue. There was a hint of surprise and excitement in her eyes for a second. It was a wonderful moment until she realized that Kevin was just doing such things for the sake of their child. Anne smiled bitterly as she gently rubbed her abdomen.

Kevin cared a little bit about her, because she was carrying their child. If she was not pregnant, he wouldn't look at her even if she starved to death.

Anne ate up the sweet and sour spareribs, but it was still tasteless. However, since Kevin handed it over, she felt a little satisfied.

When Kevin took the initiative to refill Anne's bowl, Cherry felt jealous and got furious.

She felt a pang of anxiety in her heart.

"Yes, Kevin is right. Look at yourself, Anne. You are so thin, you should eat more!"

She picked up a piece of braised pork and put it into Anne's bowl. Her tone was full of concern, but the jealousy and hatred in her eyes could not be concealed. Anne frowned and looked at the greasy braised pork in her bowl. Nausea quickly overcame her.

She stood up and ran to the nearest bathroom. Soon, they heard her vomiting.

Cherry's face darkened. She doubted whether Anne embarrassed her on purpose.

Kevin felt worried after hearing Anne vomit in the restroom.

In Cherry's perception, Kevin was frowning in disgust. He was a neat freak, so he must be unable to stand the sound of vomiting.

"Kevin, what's wrong? Can't you eat anymore?" Cherry pretended to care about Kevin and asked gently.

"Nothing!" His indifferent voice made her feel alienated.

Kevin walked closer to the bathroom and listened while Anne vomited.

"Kevin, this is just morning sickness. She will be fine right after."

Cherry didn't want Kevin to pay too much attention to Anne, so she tried to draw his attention back to her.

"Tell the servants to cook light and nutritious food in the next following days and don't serve greasy things like braised pork on the table,"

Kevin ordered while looking at the braised pork in Anne's bowl.

She vomited after seeing the braised pork. She couldn't stand anything too greasy.

"Okay, I'll tell the servants in the kitchen later," Cherry responded in a gently voice, hiding her clenched fists behind her.

She wondered why Kevin suddenly became so concerned about Anne that day. It just made her despise Anne even more.

Since Anne conceived his baby, Kevin had changed his attitude towards her a lot. Cherry was afraid that if things went on like this, she might lose Kevin.

"Ewww..."

Anne almost vomited her stomach up. She felt terrible and disgusted while looking at the toilet bowl.

She stood up and rinsed her mouth with cold water. She tidied up the mess that she made and straightened her hair before going outside.

When she was back at the table, she didn't want to see the braised pork in her bowl. She didn't know why she felt nauseous when seeing such a greasy food.

Kevin immediately picked up the braised pork in her bowl and threw it directly into the trash can beside him, as if he was able to read her mind.

Cherry felt a stinging pain in her heart when she saw what Kevin just did.

He actually threw the food she picked up directly into the trash can, and disregarded her feelings completely.

"Since you can't eat greasy foods, you should eat something light," Kevin said. Anne widened her eyes in surprise. She glanced at his calm eyes, and then she lowered her head again. Although she knew that he did all of these for the sake of their child, she still couldn't help but expect that he would care about her a little bit.

Cherry stared at Anne viciously. If eyes could kill people, Anne wouldn't know how many times she had died.

Anne looked back indifferently. She didn't want to argue with her, so she focused on eating again.

She had just ate some plain dishes. Now she finally appreciated the food despite feeling uncomfortable after vomiting earlier.
