Renewal Of Love

Chapter 46 She Was Too Stubborn

Emily paused the moment a familiar figure appeared in front of Anne.

'Kevin? He's finally here.'

Emily saw who approached Anne. She stopped walking and gave them space. She wanted to see if

Kevin finally realized something and believed Anne.

"It seems that you have lived a good life."

Anne suddenly froze. Her smile vanished as her heart started racing. She lifted her head and saw

Kevin's face. She could not distinguish his expression. As she faced him, she didn't know what to do.

"What are you doing here?"

she asked him. When she was in a coma, he was nowhere to find. He hadn't contacted anyone, even

Sam or Emily.

He neglected his responsibilities as a husband. She felt sad that the person in front of her was too

heartless.

Her cold tone made Kevin depressed. "Can't I come here?"

"Yes, you can."

Anne loathed Kevin. She had already given up on the man in front of her.

She started to walk in another direction when Kevin suddenly grabbed her arm. "Wait a minute -- I have

something to tell you!"

Emily hid in the corner when she saw Kevin grab Anne's arm. She couldn't believe what happened.

"By God! Is Kevin begging for forgiveness?"

"What are you doing?" Anne was startled at what he did. But her heart was already filled with coldness

and she couldn't care for him. She was disgusted at his touch. She couldn't even bare looking at his

face.

Kevin saw her expression, which made him feel worse.

"I came here today just to ask you something."

Anne removed his hand and took a deep breath. "Is there anything unclear between us?"

Kevin hesitated but still asked her, "Did you push Ruth down the escalator?"

It was what she expected. 'What was I thinking? Of course, it was the same question.' Anne thought.

All the hope in her heart faded.

She felt ridiculous at that moment. She smirked and answered,

"Kevin, you have already known the answer in your heart. Why do you ask me again?"

Kevin was annoyed to see the smile on her face. He knew that the woman always liked to contradict

him. He hoped she could be a little softer so he could reciprocate the feelings.

'Why does she always go against me? Why is she unwilling to admit defeat?' Kevin thought, frustrated

at her actions.

"I just want to ask you in person."

"Ask me?" Anne mocked him more. "You thought I was a cruel woman the first time you saw me, didn't

you? I think in your conception, it's a piece of cake for me to push someone downstairs."

Kevin stared at her eyes -- it was so cold. Her words stunned him as he realized that she was right --

he already judged her.

"Don't you have anything to explain?" Kevin hoped she would surrender as he asked.

"Explain what?" Anne kept her straight face. She couldn't feel anything anymore. "I'm telling you, I

didn't push Ruth down. I didn't touch her from beginning to end. Do you believe me?"

Kevin was about to tell her, 'I believe,' but something stopped him. He started to look at her face

seriously. "I need evidence, or how can I know if you are lying?"

"Ha-ha." Anne turned around and said, "No, it's your business how you think of this matter. I know what

I have done and that's enough. Those who believe me will always believe me."

She paused and stared blankly at him again. "Those who don't believe me will never do all their lives.

So what the use of trying to convince those people who would never have faith in me?"

"You--"

Irritation rose at Kevin's heart again. He didn't like how Anne spoke. He knew that she never enjoyed

explaining herself. 'If only she could, I would make an excuse and put my dignity down for her.'

He knew what he thought was ridiculous. Anne's pride wouldn't allow her to do that.

"What? Do you have any other questions to ask me?"

The shine from the sun and the strong wind suddenly made Anne dizzy.

"Anne, can you change your temper?"

Kevin softened his tone. He couldn't bear to see her pale face.

Anne pursed her lips. "Why should I change?"

Kevin started to feel ill-tempered again. "Don't you think you are stubborn? What's the point of doing

this?"

"It has no point," Anne abruptly answered as the wind breezed against her body. She was about to fall

but still kept to stood still.

Kevin noticed that Anne was pale as a piece of paper. He tried to lift her as she nudged. "How about

going inside first? It's windy today. You're not fit to go out."

"Thank you." She clenched her fists and tried to control her emotions.

She proceeded and started to walk with heavy steps. She heard the footsteps behind her.

She frowned when she knew Kevin was following her. She did not know how to push him away.

As Emily saw both of them walking towards her with stiff expression, she knew that what she imagined

would never happen.

By the look of them, Kevin seemed to have made Anne miserable again. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

She shifted her gaze at Anne and noticed her pale face. She looked weak and was about to fall.

"Anne." Emily immediately ran towards her. Her heart throbbed as she saw her lips turning white.

Anne felt relieved the moment she saw Emily. She suddenly grabbed her palm and tried to speak.

"Hiss—"

Emily trembled when she felt Anne's cold hands.

"Your hand…"

"Emily, come with me." Anne struggled to mumble the words. She pulled Emily and walked faster.

Emily understood what Anne meant and immediately accompanied her back to the ward.

Kevin saw them. He was clueless about what was happening. He noticed how Emily glanced back at

him. He did not know why it made him feel anxious.

As soon as they arrived at the door of the ward, Sam came rushing towards them.

"Anne, where have you been?" Sam furrowed his brows as he noticed her pale face. It was windy

outside. Anne shouldn't have gone out. He grimaced at the thought.

He knew that she almost fainted out as he examined her.

"I'm sorry, Sam. I asked Anne to go out. I thought the sun was good for Anne, but I didn't expect the

wind to be so strong outside."

Emily felt guilty for what had happened, but Sam ignored her. He assisted Anne and spoke in a

reproachful voice.

"Come on in! Don't catch a cold again."

"Okay." Anne nodded and noticed Kevin standing behind. She ignored him and entered the ward.

Sam also noticed Kevin.

"What are you doing here?"

Sam was displeased at his appearance. He chose to turn a blind eye at Anne when she needed him

most.

He did not get why he suddenly appeared.

Kevin moved his gaze at Sam.

"Sam, don't forget who you are talking to now."

His voice was domineering while his expression was blank. There was no joy, no sadness, nor even

anger.

Sam stared at him and said coldly,

"Don't forget what you have promised." Sam came near close to him, drawing tension between them.

"You promised you wouldn't make her sad again. But you broke her heart."

"So what?" Kevin scowled. "Sam, don't you think you care too much?"

Kevin knew Sam was a responsible doctor and a good friend.

But he felt that something between him and Anne was not just a simple doctor and patient relationship.

"What do you mean?" Sam stared at Kevin fearlessly. "I tell you if you don't like her, don't hurt her.

Since she is still pregnant with your child, you know what to do about Ruth."

Kevin stood still with his hands behind his back and answered coldly, "I don't need you to teach me

what to do."

"If you know what to do, I won't waste my time and teach you,"

Sam answered, not thinking about being cautious with his words.

"Sam, you have passed the line. Do you even know that?" Kevin answered, slightly provoked.

"So have you, Kevin."

The two of them seemed to have no intention of giving up. Neither of them would back down from their

opinions.

The intense atmosphere made the corridor colder.

"Are they quarreling?"

Anne felt so much better after she drank some hot water and lay down.

She heard the conversation between Kevin and Sam clearly as if they ignored her existence.

The two men who were known for their amicable friendship were willing to confront each other for her.

Oh, she was so lucky!

Emily bit her lips and nodded slightly. "They seem to be quarreling."

She turned her head on the side. It was good that there was someone confronting Kevin. She had long

thought that Kevin had gone too far, but she didn't dare to say it. After all, he was too powerful.

Fortunately, Sam was not afraid of anything. He did not care who he was talking to. As long as he

wanted to fight back, he would do it.

The thought made her happy. Her lips curled up into a sweet smile.

Anne noticed her smile and found it strange.

"What are you laughing at?"

It was unusual for Emily to laugh at such an inappropriate moment.

"Nothing." Emily came to her senses when Anne noticed her. She suddenly felt shy at what she did and

lowered her head. Anne seemed to know what Emily was thinking and chose to keep quiet. She smiled

as she didn't expose the lovely girl's thought.
