Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 364 I'll Drag Both Of You To Hell With Me

While the wedding was going on, both Sam and Emily received countless blessings and well wishes from their family and friends. Sam looked down and lovingly gazed upon his wife as he painted a sweet, genuine smile on his face.

He might not have even noticed her when they first met, but he gradually developed feelings for her like a slow-burn film approaching its climax. She was the one he chose to be with for the rest of his life.

Opposite of them stood Kevin, who wore a faint smile as he looked at them with pride. Seeing Sam and Emily finally end up happy together filled him with such joy.

In a few moments, the phone on his pocket violently vibrated. He squinted his eyes and his face almost resembled a frown to clearly see the screen. The call was from Anne.

Why did Anne call him now, of all times?

"Hello…" He scoured around the place and settled in the most quiet place he could find.

"Kevin, it's me." A cold, feminine voice came from the other side of the line. His face now fully morphed into a full frown. The distinct voice immediately made him realize who it was. It was none other than Rose!

It wasn't long until Kevin finally felt that something must have gone terribly wrong, so he asked with a trace of hostility, "Rose, why do you have Anne's cell phone?"

"Ha-ha!" Rose sneered. "Kevin, do you have any idea what I just experienced?

It's irony. I hate Anne so much, but it was only a while ago that I absolutely adored her. I like you so much, as well, but at the same time, I loath you with every bit of my being!"

Kevin couldn't help but frown. What was she talking about?

"Rose, give the phone to Anne now. I want to talk to her." He was almost certain that something horrible was taking place.

"Anne? Well," said Rose with a chilling smile.

His frown of disappointment further deepened. All of a sudden, he heard a woman struggling and whimpering, almost as if her voice was forcefully buried in a heap of clothes. His eyes widened as he realized it was Anne who grunted out of desperation.

'Oh my god! What happened?!'

Before he could even react, the phone was abruptly hung up. He quickly called home out of sheer panic. The servant told him that Mrs. Anne left the house about an hour ago together with the unconscious Rose and Miss Sally!

The reply didn't help him at all, and he was well aware that it was Rose that the servant said that left an hour ago, not Anne!

Right now, both Anne and Rose looked so much alike. If the two of them wore the exact same clothes, even Kevin would have a hard time pointing who was who, let alone those servants.

Damn it! Something terrible happened!

It was all his fault. He got too careless. He knew that Rose was a sly one, but he still lowered his guard, and let her stay in the Fu Family's residence!

"Sally!" At the moment, it was still too early for Eddy to come back from school. The only people left inside the house were Sally and Anne, and Rose simply would not let go of Anne. At this point, even Sally would be in trouble!

'Damn it!' he cursed internally.

Kevin hastily strode outside, gritting his teeth in both anger and anxiety. Selma noticed something about his behavior, and called him out to check if there was any problem. However, Kevin was too focused on the problem that he was completely disconnected from the noise surrounding him.

Meanwhile, Selma's concerned call caught Sam's and Emily's attention. They both looked at each other in confusion, so they walked over, and politely asked, "Mrs. Selma, what's Kevin up to?"

She shook her head, obviously as lost in the dark as them. They noticed Kevin looking too anxious when he left. She kept wondering what it could be, but she couldn't think of anything that might put him in such a mood.

Emily, too, shook her head, and smilingly commented, "Kevin is the president, after all. There are many things he has to deal with in the company. Maybe an emergency happened that he had to leave in such a hurry. Let's not bother him any further."

Both Sam and Selma couldn't help but frown. They stayed silent about their concerns, but they both knew that Kevin wasn't the type to just leave like that, no matter the current circumstances in the company.

In other words, they realized that the only thing that could make him get so nervous and anxious was… Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

"Did something wrong happen back at home?" Selma shook her head as she made a call to the home. Her face suddenly turned pale after hearing the servant's report.

'Damn it! What did Rose do this time?!' she cursed at the back of her mind. How could she take away both Anne and Sally!?

"Anne and Sally are in danger!" She turned around and rushed outside as she screamed in panic.

Sam looked at Emily with a worried face. Emily's face became cold. She let go of her husband's hand, and sarcastically remarked, "Anne is in danger. Are you going to go see her?"

Sam paused as he gave her a strange look. "Kevin is on his way. I'm pretty sure he can handle it. Nothing seriously bad will happen as long as he's there to protect her."

She frowned and stared at him. After a long time, she sneered before she turned around and left.

No wonder Sam didn't follow Selma to leave. It turned out that he thought nothing serious would happen to Anne.

The more Sam thought about it, the more confused he became. There was just something wrong about how Emily acted recently that he couldn't put his finger on. What was she angry about this time?

Now that they were in the wedding venue, there was practically nothing he could do but comfort her. The problem now was that how could he even comfort her if he didn't know exactly what was wrong?

"Emily, I feel that something is bothering you recently. Do you want to talk about it? You should learn to be more open to me all the time, now that we're married. Isn't it only reasonable to do so?" He held Emily's arms tight as he asked her helplessly.

In other people's eyes, the couple were closer than ever and were having a good time, but only the two of them knew exactly what was going on between them right now.

She placed her hand around his neck, and mustered up the strength to put on the faintest of smiles. However, her eyes remained cold and sent out an indifferent vibe. He felt the chill in her eyes as she looked at him with gaze completely devoid of adoration. "For all this time, how did I treat you and Anne? I don't think I have ever done anything to harm you. But what about the both of you? What did you do to me?"

Her vague questions only left him even more puzzled than before. "You have been really good to us. What's wrong about Anne and me? What are you talking about?"

She sneered. "Don't act like you can fool everyone. I can tell that you still have feelings for Anne!"

He couldn't help but smile. "Since I got hurt, I kept thinking about why you are so angry with me. But I just couldn't figure it out. You're an enigma to me. And now it turned out that this is what's been bothering you. Emily, how could you be this stupid? Think about it. If what you said is true—that I still like Anne until now—then why did I go ahead and marry you?

This isn't a joke. We made a vow to take care of each other for the rest of our lives. How can I not take this seriously if I don't love you?"

His words came to her as the biggest surprise she received today. She felt that she was going to melt as the overwhelming sweetness enveloped her heart.

That was all that she needed to hear—an assurance and reminder that he chose her over Anne!

But, of course, skepticism remained creeping over her. Was that all true?

"Yes, I used to like Anne, but that was a long time ago. I only see her now as a good friend. And, besides, you have a good relationship with her, don't you?

Back then, Kim had the upper hand. If only Kevin had gone there, Kim wouldn't have shown up at all. Anne only had to come to me because she was desperate.

Ryan, on the other hand, an impostor. He was nothing but a mischievous substitute. Kevin can't go there. Beside myself, who do you think Anne can approach?

And Simon is just an innocent kid who don't know any better. It's only natural that I have to give him a hand, right?

It just happened that I was badly hurt. I didn't expect it to end up the way it did.

I also didn't expect that you would suspect me because of this matter. Look, Emily, I think I made myself clear that you're the only one that I love. There's no doubt that I am willing to spend the rest of my life with you!"

Emily blushed upon hearing his words, and her then cold demeanor suddenly melted into a welcoming vibe. What more could she ask for?

He told her that he loved her and that he would only be with her for the rest of his life!

"What? Don't you trust me?" Sam abruptly asked.

She looked down in embarrassment, and slightly bit her lips as a smile now slowly began to form on her face. She gently pushed him away and turned around to walk inside. Sam faintly shook his head, knowing that Emily had believed him.

It had to be said that Emily's suspicion really baffled him.

However, it only showed how much Emily cared about him. Otherwise, how could she feel jealous?

He heaved a silent but heavy sigh. After all that, his worries still didn't leave him alone. He still had no idea what had happened to Anne.

"Look, Anne is tied to a tall building!" A worried, loud voice came from the back of Sam's ears. His frown was now as deep as it could be, and he turned around to see what was happening.

Three women were busy looking at the phones with intrigued eyes. He walked over to approach them.

"Kevin, I warn you, don't you dare take another step closer. I swear I will push Anne and Sally down together!" Sam could clearly hear Rose's loud, desperate cry from the phone's speakers.

The surreal nature of such situation dumbfounded him in ways he didn't expect. He saw Kevin standing there, not too far from Rose, regretfully shaking his head. One could tell how tense he was feeling having been caught into this difficult scenario. "Okay, okay. I won't go any further. Rose, please calm down. We can talk this out!"

Sam locked his eyes into the phone screen. He never once expected Rose to go to such extent that she actually dragged both Anne and Sally there, endangering their lives.

On the rooftop of a tall building, the intensity almost slowed time into a standstill.

Anne desperately looked at Kevin with her eyes wide open in fear. Kevin, on the other hand, knew that she was giving him a look that he had to save Sally first!

However, he was torn into two. He stood there, looking desperate for answers. If only he could think of a way to save both of them!

Anne turned to look at Rose. Back at home, Rose gave her a glass of water, but she didn't notice that it was mixed with a dose of sleeping pill.

It was enough to knock her out almost immediately. When she woke up, she found herself on the rooftop.

Hordes of media people came to report every bit of the situation.

"Anne, are you happy to know that I've been following you like a dog these days?" Rose mockingly said. She then cruelly grabbed her hair, and continued, "I acted so humble, and even begged you to give me chance. Have you been mocking me, deep inside?"

Not only did Anne not find the right words to respond, her mouth was also tightly covered so she couldn't say anything.

"In fact, even I looked down upon myself when I did that. What's wrong with me? I hate you as much as I love Kevin. But a lot has changed not too long ago. I can't even tell what's going on!" She vigorously shook her head as her eyes began to fill with doubts and intense emotions.

It was ironic that Anne, who she loathed the most, had suddenly become the one she worshiped. The situation became inversely proportionate with how she felt about Kevin.

Up until now, Rose still didn't understand why she acted the way she did. But, now, she exploded into vile acts as her insanity got the best of her. All she wanted now was to die with Anne!

"Anne, don't be so complacent. I'm telling you, I won't hesitate to kill you and Sally. I'll drag both of you to hell with me if I could!" Tears started to well up in her eyes, as she screamed at her from the top of her lungs.

Anne desperately shook her head in fear.

For her, it didn't matter if she died. She was thinking about poor Sally who got wrongly involved!

"Well, do you have anything else to say?!" Rose smilingly asked as she finally took out the cloth from Anne's mouth.

"Rose, you can do whatever you want with me. But Sally is just a child. Please, don't do this!" Anne pleaded.

Rose simply answered with a sneer. She shook her head again and glanced over at Sally, who was too terrified and traumatized to even cry. "Anne, if it weren't for you, I would have already had a pair of lovely children with Kevin. But now that you have Sally, I can't bear to live with it!"
