Renewal Of Love

Chapter 218 A Secret Plan

Sadly, Kevin didn't even glance at the jewelry. Instead he said, "It's okay as long as you like it. It's late. I

won't disturb you anymore."

He was just about to leave, but Valentina couldn't stop herself from speaking.

"Kevin, could you be a little nicer to Rose?" she said politely.

After all, she was incredibly fond of him.

He smiled and turned his back to her. "You can ask your daughter whether I treat her well or not. I'm

sure she'll tell you the answer you want to hear."

If only Rose was willing to let go of him, he would be very happy. He had already left the Luo Family,

but Valentina was still furious.

She could tell that Kevin didn't like Rose, but there was nothing she could do. The thought of Anne's

presence infuriated her even more.

Valentina quickly went to Anne's room and knocked on the door with a sense of urgency. "Anne, come

out. I need to ask you something."

She was acting tough because she didn't want anyone to ruin Rose's marriage.

In the bedroom, Anne was just about to sleep. When she heard someone knocking at the door, she

scoffed and thought that there was no way to avoid an argument. It was easier for her to see what

Valentina was going to do this time.

"What's the matter?" Anne asked.

Valentina tried to slap Anne, but Anne managed to grab Valentina's arm just in time.

"You scheming bitch! Aren't you divorced already? Why do you still keep in touch with Kevin? Do you

think we don't know what happened between the two of you today?" Valentina cussed in a sharp voice.

She was concerned that Anne's presence in the house would only make Rose suffer.

"Auntie, if Kevin truly likes Rose, do you think I can destroy their marriage? Maybe you should learn to

think twice before blaming me," Anne refuted.

"You—" Valentina was about to explode, but Rose interrupted her.

"Mom, can you stop it?" Rose yelled.

Valentina was startled when she heard Rose's voice. "She's right, Mom. If Kevin does like me, I

wouldn't be so passive," Rose continued.

"Alas..." Valentina sighed. She realized that it was useless for her to lose her temper like this.

Anne squinted her eyes at everything in front of her as she closed the door. She only cared about the

things that concerned her. It was such a waste of time and energy to deal with unnecessary things.

Time passed by like a blink of an eye. It was already the engagement day of Kevin and Rose.

Outside the hotel, there were several crowds of reporters recording the joyous event.

The hotel had been completely renovated from the inside out. The European style sculpted reliefs

must've cost a fortune.

There were more than ten rows of goblets with varying colors of cocktails.

There was Lafite wine on the table, and the opened bottles exuded a charming aroma.

Kevin was talking to the guests outside. Selma was wearing a bright purple cheongsam and an

exquisite makeup. It was hard to tell that she was almost fifty years old. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

"Mrs. Selma, you look so young. If I didn't know any better, I'd think you were only thirty years old!" A

lady complimented Selma, and Selma was quite fond of flattery, so she smiled at her.

"I'm flattered," said Selma.

"That's not a praise, it's a fact! Your son is magnificent. Whoever is going to marry him would be so

lucky!" the man said earnestly.

Selma agreed with him completely. Soon, she heard the bell ring and she said to the man, "I'm sorry, I

have to go. I need to see what's happening."

When she found Kevin surrounded by numerous people, she said to him, "Go and see if Rose is ready

and bring her out."

Kevin frowned and went to the dressing room. At this time, Rose had already made up.

She was wearing a white dress. Her hair was coiled up and a crown was buckled to hold her hair

together. She was born with the beauty of Aphrodite, and now that she was dressed like this, she

became so beautiful that she almost looked like a goddess.

But when Kevin saw her, he didn't even bat an eyelash.

"Kevin, do I look good?" Rose couldn't resist the joy that she felt. She turned around on her high heels

and eagerly awaited his answer.

But he just replied with a monotonous voice, "Yes, you're beautiful. Now let's go."

After saying that, he immediately left. Rose was naturally disappointed, but she was still excited that

their engagement was going to proceed and soon they would get married.

Afterwards, she went out and held Kevin's arm, wearing a beaming smile. She won so many people's

admiration as soon as she appeared.

They were a match made in heaven.

However, at this moment, Mark was thinking of Anne.

No matter when and where, handsome men and beautiful women tended to be fickle in affection.

'I wonder how Anne is doing now?' Mark wondered.

In Claire Jewelry City.

Today's business was not doing good. As usual, people came and went. Today, everyone probably

went to Kevin's engagement party, so they had no time to view jewelry.

However, Anne wouldn't skip her job just because of what was currently happening outside.

She was thankful that Kevin spoiled Cherry back then, so everyone thought that his old love was

Cherry and not her. Naturally, there would be less banters against her.

Sadly, when she stepped out of the office, she could still hear everyone's discussion.

"Have you seen it? It's on live broadcast right now. Not just anybody could have such an honor. I'm so

envious!"

"What's the point of your admiration? Don't you see how beautiful the bride is?"

The two employees discussed amongst each other. Anne hid her anxiety behind a sheepish smile.

She didn't know why she was pissed when she heard someone mention Kevin's name.

She decided to open her cellphone to distract her attention. But when she opened the website or

browse the WeChat moments, she could always see Kevin's engagement.

Rose was smiling brightly, but Kevin held a blank expression. He must not be happy about everything.

Anne was certain of that. But when she came to her senses, she said to herself, "It's none of your

business anymore. Whether he's happy about this or not, you shouldn't care."

A few more hours passed and it was finally time to get off work. When she was about to head home,

she received a call from Kevin.

For the first time in her life, she rejected the call, but Kevin sent her a message that said, "Let's talk

about business."

When he called again, Anne answered the phone.

"What is it?" she answered angrily as she thought of Kevin's engagement party.

"Three o'clock tomorrow afternoon, in the Greenlight Forest." Kevin's voice sounded magnetic. He still

held a certain warmth for Anne.

"Got it." Without any hesitation, Anne hung up the phone.

Gradually as the night wore on, the people who attended the engagement party left one after the other.

In the lively hall, the musical fountain was actively playing, and there were countless goldfishes in the

huge fish tank.

The crystal chandelier sparkled with a clear light. After Selma had sent the guests away, she looked

exhausted, but she was still unwilling to retire to bed early. She still had more pressing matters to take

care of.

She could tell that Kevin was apathetic towards Rose, so she had to find a way to make him like her.

"Auntie, you look exhausted. Do you want to head back and get some rest?" Seeing the tired look on

Selma's face, Rose comforted her.

However, Selma held Rose's hand and said with a smile, "It's okay. I won't rest easily until I take good

care of you. You've been toasting with the guests all day, and haven't had a minute of rest! This is the

healthcare tea I prepared for you. Go to bed after drinking it."

Selma was so enthusiastic that Rose couldn't refuse her. "Thank you, auntie. I'll drink this with Kevin,"

she said.

Then Rose approached Kevin with two bowls of tea.

"Kevin, are you tired? Why don't you have some tea to relax?" Selma couldn't resist nodding happily

when she saw what Rose did. She finally found the perfect girl for her son.

Kevin took the tea and drank it slowly. Rose had been staring at him and had forgotten to drink her own

tea. She almost forgot that there was a bowl of tea in her hands. When Kevin finished drinking, she

grabbed it subconsciously and her own bowl slipped from her hands.

The bowl was consequently broken into pieces. Rose tried to grab it but she was a second too late.

She felt a little guilty that she had wasted the tea that Selma specially prepared for her.

However, Selma's pale face immediately recovered. "Don't worry about it. You're too tired," she said to

Rose. Then she looked at a servant and ordered, "Send Mr. Kevin and Mrs. Rose to rest."

At this moment, Rose said shyly, "Auntie, can't I go home?"

Her naivety made Selma smile. "You’re staying here today."

As she spoke, Selma patted her shoulder and whispered in her ear, "Don't waste the opportunity that I

have prepared for you."

Hearing Selma's remark. Rose realized that the tea was drugged.

Watching Rose help Kevin as he was inebriated, Selma felt a gentle warmth in her heart and grinned

from ear to ear.

It would be a lot easier if Kevin were to stay with Rose.

"Mrs. Selma, what should we do now? Should we also stay here?" the accompanying servant asked.

However, Selma smiled and said, "No, let's head back. It's best that we leave them alone for now."

She had done what she had to do. In her opinion, the reason why Kevin didn't like Rose was that they

hadn't slept together. As long as they could get through this, there would be no more problems in the

future.

The second day, at three o'clock in the afternoon, in the Greenlight Forest.

When Anne arrived, Kevin was already seated inside the room.

Anne had already noticed the unnatural expression on Kevin's face from afar. But in her eyes, he felt

guilty.

"So, what did you want to discuss? Out with it!"

Today, Anne had put on a delicate makeup. Her red lipstick made her skin look more delicate and fair,

and she looked graceful in her light gray high-heeled shoes.

Kevin was stunned by her beauty.

Anne didn't want Kevin to think that she was too abject. Unfortunately, she had no clue what he was

thinking.

"Sit down and have a rest first," Kevin stared at her and said thoughtfully.

Seeing that Anne was still panting from exhaustion, he figured that she went here in a hurry.

Five minutes later, Anne couldn't help asking, "Kevin, what do you want me to do here?"

"Anne, do you want to have another child? A child borne from you and I?" Kevin stared into her eyes

with a firm determination.

However, Anne grimaced and wondered what he was scheming.
