It was the first time that Kevin had heard Anne say such words and he felt very excited, but he calmed
down and spoke seriously. "Whether you are a shareholder or not, you can make your own decision."
Suddenly, Anne smiled, completely showing her white teeth. The aloof woman seemed to have
become more approachable and gentle.
Only those who appreciated her beauty would know that underneath her thorny appearance, there was
a burning heart.
Kevin sighed.
"Even if I want to come back now, I can't. Our child is still too young. Although the nanny is taking care
of him, it will be better for me to stay at his side," Anne said with full concern for the baby.
She loved him very much and didn't want to leave him to Selma.
"Okay, I respect you. But is it worth it for you to sacrifice so much for the child?" If he hadn't known her
well before, he would have been surprised. But now he knew the child was always her top priority, so
he wasn't shocked at all.
"Even if I take care of the baby, it won't hinder me from achieving my value. Since my ability has been
proved in M Group, I think I am qualified to be a designer of AN Group. But my requirements are the
same as M Group's. Don't announce my name for the time being. If people have to ask, just tell them
that I'm W, okay?"
"Okay, I can promise you," Kevin said sincerely while staring at Anne.
When he saw her stand up, he also did the same and asked, "Are you going back? I'll drive you home."
"No, it's working time now. Don't give me a special treatment. I drove your new car here." Anne took out
the key from her pocket and grinned cheerfully at Kevin.
He couldn't help but laugh.
She already surprised him a lot of times. However, if a woman had to drive a man's car to show off, did
it mean that he needed to give his woman a new gift?
Anne already left, but he was still smiling from ear to ear.
In the Fu Family's Villa, the vibrant atmosphere was clearly felt.
It was because of the existence of the hostess.
The huge swimming pool was extravagantly built. There was Anne who was wearing a swimsuit that
wrapped on her curvy body. Her flexible body did all kinds of swimming postures in the water, but her
smile did not disappear from beginning to end.
"Miss Anne, have a rest and have some fruit." The nanny stood beside the pool and offered her the fruit
tray.
"It's almost done. Has the flower arrangement teacher arrived?" Anne asked calmly.
"She'll be here in ten minutes," the nanny quickly replied.
In fact, she was a bit surprised that Anne had started to live her life to the fullest in the Fu Family.
Starting from Yoga, swimming, flower arrangement, designing, to taking care of the child, nothing was
missed. Anne even looked more blooming and energetic than she was.
"Okay. Is the baby awake?" Anne came out of the swimming pool and grabbed the towel beside her.
She wiped the water off her body.
She was totally a different person from the time she came back. At that time, she showed nothing but
coldness and arrogance.
Now, she was a confident woman whenever she went. She was making herself the envy of all the
women.
"Miss Anne, Mr. Kevin seemed to have changed a lot. He's been so kind to you now. Why don't you
remarry him?" the nanny asked unnaturally.
"I haven't thought about it yet. I just think it's good to remain the current state. Although I'm not married
to Kevin, our relationship is much better than before." She was still not sure whether their relationship
would change after marriage. She was a little anxious with the thought, but she was totally fine with
what they had now.
"All right." The nanny took back the fruit tray, and Anne put on her clothes, ready to go to the baby's
room to see Charles.
In the baby's room, Charles waved his tiny hands, as if he was always energetic. He was jolly every
time Anne was around.
"Baby, I'm here with you. Did you have a good time?" Anne rubbed his belly gently. He suddenly smiled
showing that he liked his mother's touch.
He grabbed her hair with his small hand and hardly let go of it. Anne was amazed that he had such
strength despite that he was only three months old.
Suddenly, something occurred to her. She picked up the baby and put him on the bed with his face
down. She took a toy to attract his attention. As expected, she saw that Charles raised his head, and
stretched his hand trying to get it.
"Miss Anne, the flower arrangement teacher is here. I can take care of the baby," the nanny said and
offered to look out for her child.
At that time, Anne was immersed in the joy that her baby was always jolly and energetic. He even
learned to look up when he was lying prone.
"Okay, Charles can lie prone and raise his head now. You can let him exercise, but don't make him too
tired. Let him have a rest later."
After that, Anne went to the living room and saw the flower arrangement teacher.
"Hello," Anne greeted the teacher with a smile.
"Hello, Miss Anne. You are the most confident person I've ever known to learn flower arrangement,"
Becky said cheerfully as she was pleased to meet Anne.
"Really?" Anne felt a little embarrassed to be praised at first sight. Nevertheless, she smiled back at
her.
"Of course, the most important thing in flower arrangement is confidence, being calm and not in a hurry.
In fact, the basic skills are very easy to learn, but some people don't know how to relax themselves
which hindered them from learning this art," Becky said trying to make things clear about flower
arrangement.
Anne understood what the teacher said, and she learned quickly when Becky taught her.
The study ended in just two hours. Since Anne had a full day, she seemed to be in a good mood. She
was truly a fast learner, easy to adapt to things and learn them well.
It was six o' clock in the late afternoon and Kevin just got home.
When the nanny saw him, she smiled and told him, "Mr. Kevin, since Miss Anne came back, you
seemed to always come back on time."
Kevin just smiled. His eyes were fixated on Anne.
She stood in front of huge vases, in which there were all kinds of bright and beautiful flowers. But to
him, her beauty was the greatest of all.
"You're back?" Anne spoke and went closer to him.
She was so excited to tell him about their baby's progress. "Our baby can raise his head when he lies
prone today."
Kevin was still staring at her. He thought of her as the best mother he had ever known. He smiled
brightly with the thought.
"Well, you must be tired." He put his arms around her shoulder.
"I'm not tired at all. Charles is very obedient. When I was studying the flower arrangement, swimming
and designing, he didn't give the nanny a hard time. He didn't cry or make trouble. When I went to see
him, he was very dependent on me and always giggled." Anne was very proud of her child. Her eyes
were full of excitement to see her child grow.
"Well, it seemed that I don't have much time with Charles. From now on, I will try my best to refuse my
work and come back to accompany you every weekend," Kevin said gently. He was willing to make
time for his family. What a thoughtful man indeed!
Seeing that Kevin was so eager to spend more time with her and their baby, Anne said, "Work is the
most important. If there is something particularly important, don't refuse it."
Kevin smiled and thought that she was very enterprising.
"Of course I know. I just want to fulfill my responsibilities as the father of our child, okay?" Kevin said
thoughtfully.
Anne breathed a sigh of relief. She was worried that he would refuse work because of her. Now that
she knew it was for the child's sake, she felt much better.
Her eyes shuttled through the vases and saw a variety of flowers being put in various shapes.
Suddenly, a new design came into her mind.
"Kevin, I'm thinking if I can put the elements of each season's flowers into the design and slowly launch
the new style, so that everyone will know what the products in the next season of the AN Group will be
like. It is also for the people to be more attracted and curious about what the design will be at a specific
time. I think that it is a good idea to attract customers." Anne spoke with enough confidence. Her voice
trailed off.
Kevin, on the other side, didn't express his opinion and thought about it at first.
"Your idea is very interesting. But I'm afraid that the sales will only be good in the short term if we
merely use the flowers as the main theme. It is hard to say how the sales will go for the long term, but
we can give it a try." Kevin spoke after a short moment of analyzing the advantages and disadvantages
of the idea.
"But what if there is a risk?" Anne bit her lips and didn't want to put the AN Group at risk. After all, the
AN Group had just encountered a small trouble because of her.
"It doesn't matter. Any company's plan will encounter trouble in every period, and I don’t think your idea
will fail. I believe that you will definitely have a better performance this time based on what you have
designed before," Kevin said while stroking her hair.
The two of them smiled at each other intimately.
In the cafe.
A soothing music was played and made the people feel relaxed.
Anne looked at Trey while sitting demurely.
"Mr. Trey, you can withdraw the term. It's totally a coincidence that my previous design could be
outstanding. I know that you gave me two percent of the profit from the sales because you wanted me
to stay in M Group. But I can't allow something like that to happen anymore," she said and lowered her
head.
Trey didn't say anything. He just stared at her for a long time. The scrutiny in his eyes made her feel
uncomfortable.
"You asked me a question before if I had any feelings for Kevin. I will tell you that he is the father of my
child, and also a person I can't give up. I was not able to figure it out before, but now I understand. It's
not that I deliberately lied to you, but to be honest, I really didn't know that before."
Anne stood up and took out a paper of agreement from her bag. She put it on the table and turned
away.
It was not until then that he realized that there was only an agreement left. He picked up the paper of
agreement and put it in the pocket of his suit. The only words he managed to let out were, "What a
pity."
He wanted Anne to say, not only for the business's sake; it was also his personal wish. Besides, it was
no doubt that she was really a talented designer. On the other side, Trey still hoped that he could still
be friends with her.
However, some people were only destined to meet by chance, but sadly couldn't go well together.
There was a hint of regret in his eyes.
