Anne opened her eyes in a dazed expression and felt as if her head was about to explode. Her blurry
vision turned slowly clear.
There was a man standing in front of her bed. His tall figure attracted her attention. It was like what she
saw before she fainted. At that moment, she had thought it was Kevin, but when she saw him clearly,
she felt a little disappointed.
It was not Kevin, but Sam.
"Anne, you finally woke up. Do you know how worried I was about you?" Relieved by her awakening,
Sam immediately helped her sit up. His voice was full of concern.
"Sam, where am I? And why are you with me?" Anne asked, looking at Sam in confusion.
Before she fainted, it was Kevin who held her in his arms. Why was Sam beside her now?
"You passed out in the Fu Family's Villa. I brought you back," Sam answered hurriedly, with his eyes
darting back and forth.
Kevin told him not to reveal her that he saved her.
"I see."
Anne trusted Sam completely, so she didn't doubt the authenticity of his words. But as she took in the
fact that it wasn't Kevin who saved her, she felt inexplicably disappointed.
"You just woke up and your temperature is still high. You'd better get some rest now. I'll tell the cook to
prepare something plain for you."
As he looked at her flushed face, a hint of pity flashed through Sam's eyes.
"Sam..." Anne called him in a hurry, seeing that he was about to leave.
"Do you need anything else?" He turned around and looked at her. His tone was surprisingly gentle.
"About the baby..."
After going through so many ups and downs, Anne hadn't seen her son yet. She was getting more and
more anxious.
"Anne, as far as I know, Kevin sent the child abroad, so..."
He didn't finish his sentence. He just stared at her face as it grew paler, and felt sorry for her.
"Sent abroad? How could this be? The baby is still so young. How could he send him abroad?" The
thought that the child was now so far away from her caused an indescribable pain in her heart.
He was still so young. How could Kevin be so cruel and send him abroad? How could he live with
himself after doing that?
Her heart was full of hatred toward him. Why was he so cruel? What he wanted most was a child. How
could he be so merciless to him?
"Calm down. I believe that Kevin will provide well for the baby." At her pained expression, a worried
frown formed on Sam's forehead.
Now he began to regret his decision. Did lying to her do her any good?
"Provide well? He did his best to take the child away from me. Is this how he treats him now?"
Anne was getting restless. Her son had lost his mother after he was born, and now his father was
abandoning him. Although both his parents were alive, he was an orphan.
No, she couldn't leave her child alone abroad. She had to find him.
"Sam, tell me, where is my son now? I have to find him. I have to find him!"
Anne looked at Sam with uneasiness in her eyes. She was getting more and more worried about her
child. She didn't want him to be alone in another country.
Seeing her anxious look, Sam felt a little guilty. She had suffered enough, but now he was causing her
even more pain. Although it seemed that what he was doing was for her good, he knew how miserable
she was.
"I only know that he was sent to America. I couldn't find out anything else." Sam didn't dare to look into
her eyes. He was afraid that he couldn't continue his lie.
"I'm going to America. I'll book the earliest flight."
Most of Kevin's power was in America. It was very likely that he would send his child there, so Anne
didn't doubt Sam's words at all.
She wished she had wings to fly to America right away.
"Calm down. You still have high fever," he said in a decisive tone, forcing her to stay put. "How can you
take the plane in your current situation?"
He couldn't bear to see her like that.
She was so weak that she couldn't endure any more torture. The most important thing for him now was
to take good care of her body.
"But my child is in America. I must find him."
Tears welled up in her eyes. The thought of her child being alone in a foreign country made her heart
ache.
"Don't worry. He is Kevin's child. Kevin will definitely take care of him. Besides, you are so weak now. If
you don't get a good rest, I'm afraid that you will fall ill. If this happens, you won't be able to see your
son, will you?"
Sam tried to persuade her patiently.
Although she was still worried about her son, Anne knew that if her body collapsed, it would be more
difficult for her to find her son.
"Good girl. You should take good care of yourself now. When you recover, I will go to America with you.
I will help you find your son,"
he said in a gentle tone, while caressing her head delicately.
"Sam, thank you for helping me so much these days. I owe you. I will definitely repay you someday."
She felt like a stray dog, but Sam still helped her without reservation. She was silently moved by his
recent efforts.
At her words of gratitude, Sam was stunned, and the smile on his face became a little unnatural.
If she had known that he had been lying to her, would she still be so grateful to him? Or would she
rather be angry with him?
"Get some rest. I'll get you something to eat." Unable to uphold Anne's grateful gaze, Sam walked out
hastily.
Anne had always trusted him, but he had lied to her. If she found out the truth, he wouldn't know how to
face her.
After Sam left, Anne calmed down gradually, but she became more determined to find her child.
In the bedroom, Kevin was sitting on a chair with his eyes pointed at the empty bed, reliving the
moment when Anne was lying on it.
He didn't know whether she had woken up or not.
Sam must have told her by now that the child had been sent abroad.
As soon as she left, they would no longer cross paths with each other.
Although it was cruel, his purpose was to protect her. If she went to America, he could send his secret
force to protect her, and Alan would have no way to hurt her.
A knock on the door interrupted Kevin's thoughts. A slight unhappy frown started to weigh down on his
features.
Not getting any response, Cherry opened the door and walked in. She was wearing a light pink
nightdress that was revealing her perfect figure.
Her delicate collarbone was partly visible thanks to the see-through fabric of her dress.
"Kevin, it's so late. Why don't you go to bed?"
Cherry walked gracefully to Kevin's side. Her almond eyes were crisp like a spring night, and a faint
smell of alcohol was emanating from her skin.
"It's so late. What are you doing here?"
Having a look at her revealing clothes, Kevin guessed the purpose of her late visit, which made him a
little irritable.
He had no interest in Cherry's body at all. All he wanted to know was whether Anne was doing well.
"Kevin, I know you are in a bad mood now, so I came here to keep you company."
While speaking, Cherry leaned against Kevin's arm. Her eyes were full of affection, and her words a
little ambiguous.
Kevin deepened his frown, and his eyes turned colder.
"No, thanks. Go back and have a good night!" He averted his gaze to hide the impatience in his eyes.
"Kevin, I know you may feel sorry for Anne, but you did it for her good, so..."
Feeling unhappy deep in her heart, Cherry kept smiling on the outside.
"From now on, don't mention the name 'Anne' in front of me. This woman will soon disappear from my
life forever."
Anne's name was like a fire brand in his heart. He was thinking about her all the time.
A little annoyed, he wondered since when he began to be controlled by a woman.
"Kevin, can you really forget Anne? I think you are still thinking about her."
It was obvious that Kevin was thinking about that bitch, Anne. Cherry was aware that she had to
become his woman as soon as possible, so that she could rest easy.
"Cherry, you weren't so inquisitive before. When did you become so stubborn?" Kevin's voice grew
gelid, and the displeasure in his black eyes became more and more obvious.
He felt that she had changed a lot recently. She was not as considerate as before.
Flustered by Kevin's reproach, Cherry flashed a panicked smile.
"Kevin, I care about our relationship. You have nothing to do with Anne anymore, so I obviously don't
want you to still think about her. After all, it's us who will be together for the rest of our lives. I just hope
that I'm the only one in your heart."
She just couldn't wrap her head around the fact that Kevin still loved Anne even if she left.
Everything changed, even Kevin's feelings for her.
"From now on, you will be the only woman in my life, Cherry. Are you satisfied with this promise?" His
voice was calm, but his dark eyes were brimming with disgust.
