Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 176 Changing Her

It was getting dark, but Kevin had no intentions to go back to the hotel. How could he go to sleep and shut his eyes at a beautiful night such as this? Anne had been in high spirits all day long.

He believed that he could melt Anne's heart and change her stubbornness. If a woman refused to yield in front of a man, then one thing is for sure: She felt that the man was not good enough to be with her.

"Let's go back," said Anne with a smile.

"Don't be in a hurry. You will have plenty of time to sleep when we get back." Kevin tickled Anne's nose lovingly. His doting manner distracted Anne.

"Then where are we going? We spent the day all over here." Anne frowned and wondered what he was up to.

"Come with me. I’ll show you something." He held her hand and walked to the other side of the beach.

Turning a corner on the beach, Anne was in awe to see a ray of bioluminescent light glowing as the current splashed in the deep sea on its way to the shore. It was so beautiful and bizarre.

"Is this the famous bioluminescent beach?" Anne asked excitedly.

She had only heard of it when she was very young, but she wasn't so sure if it truly existed. But from where she stood, she finally saw it with her own eyes.

"Do you like it?" Kevin lowered his head and asked with a gentle smile, staring at the woman he loved.

"I love it. It's like a dream. It’s so beautiful." As she stared at the glowing beach, the smile on Anne's face widened and wouldn't disappear for a while.

"Now that we are here, let's take a close look," said Kevin.

He towed Anne over to the water like pulling a child, but Anne was a little reluctant to go.

"Is that even allowed?" asked Anne.

It turned out that she was afraid of ruining this beautiful moment.

"Don't worry. It's not forbidden. It's not the most beautiful time to be here, so there are a few people here, but more people will come later in tours. Also, some people don’t even know this place exists."

It's true, in Maldives, there was a lot of scenery everywhere. People had filled their eyes enough for a day, so they might not come here.

"Very well," Anne replied calmly.

The two sat side by side in the middle of the magical beach.

From afar, they looked like a couple from the heavens, nestled with each other, dreamy and beautiful.

The bioluminescent light was like a huge light band scattered across the ocean as bright as the Milky Way.

"Anne. I just hope you can be happy every day. You don't have to be as weary as before," said Kevin as he held her shoulder in the dark as the night peaked.

But he saw that Anne immediately returned to her indifferent attitude like a switch. She seemingly felt that it was not appropriate.

"I'm sorry. You don't have to say that again. I'm who I am and I won't change at all." After saying that, she ran straight into the fluorescent shore.

Her feet were wet because of the damped fine sand. Her footprints glowed like a runway, and she looked isolated in the incandescent light. Kevin admired her from a distance and after a while, he let

out a deep sigh.

He followed Anne and walked side by side with her. If Anne marched too fast, he would imitate her pace and never let her wander alone.

The truth was that she was conflicted about this trip. If Kevin treated her like this before she was disappointed in anything about him, she would not put on guard against him at all.

But she had experienced too much. If something good happened in front of her, she would take it as a sign of the worst coming. She couldn't accept Kevin in her heart because she believed that everything would turn out bad.

"Don't follow me. Let me walk by myself." It seemed that Anne was used to her solitude wherein no one cared about nor understood her. When the warmth came, she subconsciously wanted to push it away.

Kevin said, "If you think you can't accept me being a husband to you, why won’t you at least treat me as a father of your child?"

Anne kept silent. She knew that he had changed a lot because of her, but love was not enough. It could not represent a person's character. If a person hurt her, she would forgive but not forget. She would refuse to get close to him and make herself vulnerable again. This was what her heart told her to do and she could do nothing to change it.

"All right," she said.

"You don’t have to stress about it, you know. Let’s just enjoy this beautiful moment under the stars. Check this out." Kevin turned her body to face their footsteps.

The shoreline of fluorescent beach glimmered the name of Anne.

It was exceptionally dazzling to see under the starry night.

It seemed that Kevin's eyes were twinkled with tenderness, which melted the devotion of his entire life into the name, Anne Luo.

"Thank you," said Anne in a low voice.

A mesmerizing scene like that would be treasured in her heart forever.

"You're welcome. I'm here to take care of you on behalf of my baby," Kevin said casually in order to make Anne feel at ease.

But he knew in fact that Anne still liked him. He didn't realize it before, but now he understood.

He held Anne's hand and slowly tucked her in a warm embrace.

"I know you still hate me. If it weren't for the baby, maybe we wouldn't have the chance to meet again. But please, don't push me away. I love you very much, not for the baby, but because of who you are. I admit that I was deceived by others before and thought you were a bad person, but now, you are the one I love most."

It was such a beautiful night, with the interstellar of stars, the cold night wind, and a luminescent beach.

It was the right place and the right time for expressing his love for her.

Kevin's sudden confession of love was beyond Anne's expectation.

She was still in a trance when Kevin held her tightly and gave her a sweet gentle kiss.

It was an out-of-this-world moment. It seemed that Anne had really forgotten what had happened before. She only knew that the man in front of her had once made her fall in love, and she could not resist him now.

From shock to response, she pushed him away, but Kevin was still pleased. At least, she yielded to him.

"Hello, everyone. This is the famous bioluminescent beach. This phenomenon is caused by bioluminescent organisms...."

After a while, a loud megaphone interrupted the silence and many people came to the beach. They were led by the tour guide to watch the bioluminescent beach.

Kevin and Anne smiled at each other as they were about to leave.

The light in the hotel was on.

When they entered, she felt the dim lights look extraordinarily affectionate tonight. She wondered if it was because she was in a good mood that caused her to feel so.

Either way, Anne was so shy that she kept blushing.

In the hotel room, Anne wanted to take a shower before going to bed, but she saw the blurry glass wall of the bathroom and hesitated.

"Is there any other bathroom here?" asked Anne. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

She thought that even if there was a public bathroom, it would do. But Kevin shook his head in denial.

"Maldives is always a place for young couples to come. There is no such place that you want in this hotel."

At last, regardless of whether Kevin would be angry or not, she asked in a low voice, "Can we get another room?"

Kevin was stunned. He didn't want to disappoint her. If she left, he would feel uncomfortable, so he said, "Okay, let's ask together. I'll take you to the new room if there's any."

Anne nodded. The two of them walked out together.

After they reached the reception of the hotel, they found that the receptionist was dozing off because it was already eleven o'clock in the evening.

"Hello, I want a new room," said Kevin.

The drowsy but accommodating receptionist was alerted. She shook her head and said, "I'm afraid by this time, all the hotel rooms are occupied. I'm sorry."

The receptionist did sound serious. The look on Anne's face suddenly became disappointed. She walked back and planned to sleep directly without taking a shower. She was irritated because she sweated a lot today and her body was sticky.

Noticing the annoyance on Anne's sulking expression, Kevin said, "Go ahead and take a shower. I promise I won't look at you."

He knew what her concern was. She worried that something intimate would happen if the two of them stayed in the same room.

"All right," Anne said suspiciously.

After getting her toiletries, she went into the bathroom with a bath towel. Kevin shifted his attention to read the latest news of AN Group.

The sound of the running water filled the silent room, and Kevin's Adam's apple tightened. He was really itched to turn to look at her direction, but in the end, he chose to clench his hands and resist the

temptation.

When Anne stepped out of the bathroom, the room was filled with her fragrance.

"I'm done. You can go to take a shower now," said Anne.

But still Kevin didn't move an inch. She thought he was so caught up reading something that he didn't hear her.

"Kevin, go to take a shower." She tapped him on the shoulder.

At this time, Kevin turned his head and saw that Anne was wearing a robe. Her hair was still dripping when she came out, and water drops slid down from her hair and dampened the collar of her robe.

The nightgown was designed to fit people's body, outlining Anne's hourglass figure.

The light was dim. In Kevin's eyes, in that moment, Anne had a kind of bewitching beauty.

His kiss fell in her lips unexpectedly. Worried about where this kiss could end up with, Anne bit his lip and pushed him away.

"Go to take a shower." The tension in the air made the two felt like the room seemed to have cooled a little.

"Sorry, I can't help it," said Kevin.

Anne didn't say anything, because she was also processing the moment. Why did she feel a little excited and indulgent when Kevin kissed her? Shouldn't she take the initiative to stay away from him? Her heart should be as calm as water, and she shouldn't fall in love with him no matter what he did.

But now, she was clearly intrigued. She knew clearly how difficult it would be for the two of them to be together, but she still could not restrain the intense feelings in her heart just now,

and she hated herself for being tender.

"Just take a shower." After saying that, Anne divided the big bed into two and lay on the left. Covered with a thin quilt, she was ready to sleep.

When Kevin came out of the bathroom, Anne had already fallen asleep.

Her quiet appearance was very pleasing. The toughness she had flaunted throughout the day suddenly disappeared like the moon at dawn. She looked like a lone kitten, waiting for the right person who could really melt her loneliness with warm embrace.
