When she followed Kim's gaze, Anne saw nothing.
"Wahahaha!" Suddenly, Kim burst into a manic laugh. "Anne, have no talent for being undercover. How
could you get distracted by such a simple sentence?"
When she heard that, Anne's face instantly paled. Her worried eyes stared back at Kim as her mouth
slightly twitched. Nonetheless, she still tried to feign innocence, "Kim, what are you saying? I have no
idea about what you mean."
While shaking his head, Kim turned around and stared straight into her eyes. "There's no need for you
to continue acting. Actually, I already realized that the drug's effect has already faded."
Surprised, she gawked at him and stared in disbelief. 'Why does he know about it?'
"The first time I acquired the drug, I've told my men to perform experiments. After hundreds of human
trials, we finally made sure that it won't have any effect on the person's body after wearing off.
Moreover, I was also sure that it's working for the duration. However, it was out of my expectations for it
to change on you." With helpless eyes, Kim shook his head.
Despite all the research he had done, he was still surprised when something miraculous happened to
her.
Even though she was injected with one year's worth of dose, it only affected her for a few days.
With furrowed eyebrows, Kim rubbed his temples. Then, he burst into laughter while helplessly shaking
his head.
At that moment, he realized that God was blind. If that wasn't the case, how else could he explain his
current situation?
As such, Kim had almost seen through everything. A complicated expression painted Anna's face. "I
thought that my recent acting was great. What made you realize the truth?"
He turned around and looked at her with condescending eyes. "Yeah, you're acting was so good. It can
be called perfect!
Unfortunately, that spotless performance also became my clue.
A great scientist invented that drug. It's his life's masterpiece. However, there's a small defect.
The subject's mind will change completely and will feel the opposite of their usual self. That mishap is
the reason for the temporary recovery."
When she heard his explanation, Anne immediately thought of something. She recalled when Rose
was still under the effects of the drugs. In several occasions when Rose called her lovingly, she was in
a daze and looked at her with a frown, looking confused.
At that time, Anne didn't pay much attention to Rose. It was only at this moment that the former
connected the dots.
"If something seems so perfect, it's even more suspicious. That's out of your expectations! Right,
Anne?" Kim mocked as he shook his head and sat on the sofa.
With a helpless look, Anne replied in a sarcastic voice, "Yeah, I hadn't thought of it."
Even the smallest details could affect the outcome. It proved to be true.
"Well, you didn't expect it. Meanwhile, I also didn't expect that the influence of the drug will fade rather
quickly!" Kim helplessly shook his head with a condescending smile.
He was having a hard time accepting what just happened.
With a frown, Anne glared daggers at Kim as she pursed her lips. Then, she said what she was
thinking, "You told me you love me. However, because of what you did to me, I don't think that's true.
Do you normally use drugs to control someone you love? And to use her child to threaten her?
Well, we have time to spare today, Kim. Why don't we talk first? Let's talk about your false love for me."
With a frown, Kim stared Anne in her eyes. Soon, his expression grew colder and harsh. He stood up
and kicked the sofa. In an angry tone, he growled, "Each of us has our own different way of showing
affection. Anne, you may not love me, but don't you dare doubt my feelings for you."
She knew that he was fierce and scary. However, she wasn't afraid of him at that moment. He looked
like a kid throwing a tantrum.
Although it was a ridiculous idea, this was what she really thought of him now.
With a shake of her head, she gracefully sat on the sofa and glared at him. "You kidnapped me that
time just to lay your hands on Kevin's property. However, while I was still your captive, you slowly
developed a good impression of me. Nonetheless, I still know myself, and I don't believe I deserve your
affection.
You must have suffered a lot of emotional pain when you were young, Kim. Maybe it's because of my
love for my child that you also developed an interest in me.
However, falling in love with a person doesn't mean that you imprison or control them. On the contrary,
it means to support that person in anything she wants to do!
I don't feel any of that from you!"
"Ha-ha!" With a disdainful laugh, Kim shook his head. "Well, it's easy for you to say that. If it were
another woman, such extreme measures won't be necessary. But you are Kevin's wife. How can I
make you stay with me if I don't use such methods?"
That was his motivation for doing such horrible things.
Suddenly, police sirens echoed outside. Immediately, Anne looked into the distance.
"Both Kevin and you think you're so smart. Unfortunately, you didn't expect this to be a trap." With an
arrogant smile, he crossed his legs while sitting on the sofa.
In a worried tone, Anne asked, "Kim, what's going to happen? What is your plan?"
As he lowered his head, Kim smiled and posed as if he was hugging someone. While shaking his head,
he softly said, "If Simon was here, I would embrace him like this. However, he isn't here. Well, the silver
lining is that if he witnessed what's going to happen today, it's impossible for him not to develop any
psychological traumas!"
When she heard him, a chill ran down Anne's spine. Then, she abruptly headed for the door.
Unfortunately, it was locked.
"Kim, why are you doing this? Please unlock this door!" Anne yelled in a frantic voice.
However, Kim smiled and remained motionless on the sofa.
Out of options, Anne gritted her teeth and bolted to the window. As she peeked outside, a bunch of
police cars and private vehicles surrounded the place. And Kevin was standing in front of them!
Since Kevin was far away from Anne, she couldn't clearly see his face. Nonetheless, his figure seemed
engraved in her mind that she wouldn't mistake him for another person.
"Run, Kevin! It's a trap!" Anne helplessly shouted at the top of her lungs.
After they entered the property, Kevin immediately realized something strange in the atmosphere.
Then, when he heard Anne's voice, his anxious expression turned grim!
Since she shouted like that, it only meant one thing.
Anne's identity had been revealed!
As such, he couldn't retreat. No matter what, he had to take Anne back. It was his responsibility as her
man!
"Mr. Kevin, there is something wrong!" said the policeman who rushed towards Kevin.
With a nod, Kevin scouted their surroundings with his eyes. A frown flashed across his face. Murderous
intent filled the blowing cold wind. He felt as if a predator was watching his every move.
It was as if he was standing at hell's gate!
"What are you planning, Kim? What's going to happen to those people outside? Tell me! Please!" Anne
begged as her pleading eyes stared at Kim.
With a smirk, Kim simply closed his eyes. "Destiny cannot be stopped. Don't worry about the two of us.
No harm will fall on us."
Anne already figured out that since she was with Kim, no danger would befall them. However, she
wasn't thinking about it at all!
"Kim, what are you going to do? Do you plan on killing someone? You already killed a lot of people,
including Ryan! How much blood are you going to spill before you're satisfied?" She stepped forward
and grabbed him by the collar. "How can you do such a thing? Who do you think you are to take the
lives of others? How dare you kill them?"
With a raised eyebrow, Kim opened his eyes and stared at the hysterical woman in front of him. A sly
smile flashed across his face. "Now, I'm looking at the genuine Anne! Your acting earlier was so
boring!"
Her expression turned into a frown. While gritting her teeth, she reached for her shoes. She was
wearing high heels, and there was something inside it.
"What now? Are you planning to kill me?" Kim quickly caught her hand before she could touch her
shoes.
Instantly, Anne's face turned white. It was surprising that Kim realized her plan. Suddenly, he exerted
more strength in his hand, which made Anne fall onto the sofa. Soon, she was lying in Kim's arm
similar to a few days ago.
Desperate, Anne wanted to struggle and break free. However, her temples felt cold. All of a sudden,
something heavy touched her forehead.
Cold sweat trickled down her spine. Even without seeing the object, she knew what it was. She never
thought that Kim would bring a gun.
"Anne, my patience for you is wearing thin. I suggest you behave now. We can watch the show
together. If you provoke me again, I will not only use this gun to kill Kevin but also Selma and your
three children. You should have a rough idea how horrible I can be with this thing." His tone was full of
threat and murderous intent. There wasn't any hint of compassion in his voice.
Anne had no choice but to sit there and remain quiet. The man before her was skilled in threats. He
knew how much she loved her children.
With a snort, Kim stood up. Then, he approached the window and stared down at Kevin.
From the start until that moment, he knew the couple's plan. They thought that he would take her back
to his base. It would be the perfect trap to catch him his men. However, they underestimated his wits.
Kevin, Anne, and the police were just too arrogant. As such, the winner and loser that day remained
undetermined.
"Mr. Kevin, we might have fallen into a trap," a policeman said to Kevin in an anxious tone.
Kevin frowned as several other police officers hurried towards him. They reported, "Mr. Kevin, we're
going to be ambushed. The enemies are pointing guns at our hearts!"
Because of their years of training, the armed police were more sensitive to murderous intents. Their
survival instincts were sharper than Kevin's.
With furrowed eyebrows, Kevin closed his eyes and breathed a helpless sigh. He thought that they
could finally defeat Kim at that time. Unfortunately, the bastard turned the tables around and trapped
them instead.
That guy was truly a cunning fox!
"Mr. Kevin, we must retreat now! Otherwise, it will endanger everyone!" asserted the policeman in a
stern voice. At that point, they were willing to ignore Kevin's commands if needed.
With a conflicted expression, Kevin noticed a person standing in front of the window. It was Kim!
The former imagined the smug look on the latter's face.
Moreover, Anne was still there!
