Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 475 A Pretty Girl (Part One)

Anne took a good look at the crowd, as she sighed heavily. Then, she proceeded to tell them what had happened. It was evident that everyone was left speechless after hearing the events.

Alas, the past was past. She made a conscious decision and chose to forgive and forget. However, to the child, the harm was already done.

Indeed, this matter had created a strong impact on Paula and one could already see the effects of her trauma. Unfortunately, the child was too young to understand or forget so easily, which, at the same time, made Paula lose her self-esteem and become more timid over time. After living through something so traumatic, she didn't know how to deal with it and could only cry desperately.

Even though, Paula was a girl and she was used to everyone spoiling her, this definitely wasn't a good sign.

"We can't push her too much. We have to take it slow," Kevin said, wearing a worried expression on his face. "Haste makes waste. Moreover, Paula is still very young. If we take our time to teach her how to control her emotions, I assure you she will get over it sooner or later."

Everyone nodded subconsciously. At the end of the day, that was the only thing they could do for now.

Meanwhile, the mother and daughter's incessant crying slowly came to a halt thanks to Mark's comfort. When a shy smile finally blossomed on Paula's lips, Rose felt a weight off her shoulders.

With her daughter in her arms, Rose took a seat on the sofa. Her eyes travelled around the room as she felt suffocated with guilt. "Emily, we gathered here to make you happy, but because of me, this meeting was ruined. I'm truly sorry for that."

Emily, on the other end, shook her head as she reached for Rose's hand. "Please, don't say such things. We're good friends, aren't we?" she said in a soft voice.

Reassured by her words, Rose nodded in agreement. Then, she exchanged looks with Paula, who was still in her arms, and Anne. The latter could only smile at her back. "Rose, don't rush, okay? You can take your time."

Relieved by her sister's understanding of her pitiful state, she looked at Mark, who also nodded at her knowingly.

Later, when Anne and Kevin arrived at the Fu Family's residence, it was already nighttime. During the car journey, both Simon and Sally spent a good time playing before sleep finally defeated them.

Therefore, as soon as the couple stepped a foot in the house, they went straight to the kids' bedrooms and tucked them in bed.

Meanwhile, Eddy also went back to his room to sleep. As for Selma, she hadn't come back home yet.

The couple exchanged a knowing glance with each other and smiled helplessly. Kevin shook his head jokingly. "Mom loves spoiling her grandchildren very much. She has given them so much of her time that she can't even meet with her friends. Now that mom's finally free, she naturally needs to have some time for herself."

Listening carefully to what he had to say, Anne thought it all made sense, so her absence wasn't something to worry about.

After a long day, they still didn't feel sleepy. So, they immediately turned on the TV and watch whatever was on at the moment, which coincidentally happened to be an interview show featuring two familiar faces.

They were none other than Cherry and Andrew.

In fact, Kevin had already known about Cherry's affair for a long time. He didn't take it seriously though, since he figured it had nothing to do with him.

Although Cherry used to be Kevin's lover, that didn't mean they had to be in each other's business all the time. After they broke up with each other, they had the right to live their separate lives in peace.

As they continued to watch the program, they noticed that Cherry was wearing a faint smile on her face. Her demeanor made her look intellectual and generous. Thanks to the recent transformation, Cherry appeared more skillful.

Next to her, Andrew was found sitting there quietly.

He was wearing a sheepish and lovely smile on his face. As a matter of fact, he didn't look like Cherry's boyfriend, but more of the guy next door.

He didn't look like a serious person. He emanated a soothing aura of charm, making everybody in the room feel very comfortable.

After chatting for a while, the host finally looked at the two interviewees with knowing eyes, as if he couldn't wait to talk. So, he coughed to relieve the tension and proceeded with the interview. "The following question is what the online audience has wanted to know for a long time. Please, consider it before you give your definitive answer."

Meanwhile, Cherry and Andrew exchanged funny looks, as the corners of their lips rose simultaneously. It was pretty obvious that the both of them knew what was coming their way. Then, the camera turned to the audience and everyone looked at them expectantly.

Without further ado, the host raised the question. "The audience online wants to know whether you two are co-workers or an actual couple."

This question was simple and straightforward and it was also what the audience had been wondering this whole time. Therefore, it was impossible for Cherry and Andrew to avoid it. They had to admit, the interviewer knew how to corner them. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

Suddenly, Cherry felt a little shy. So, she slowly looked up at Andrew, but immediately lowered her head. "Of course we are just co-workers," she said in a low voice.

Unfortunately, her shyness had already given it away. She obviously wanted to say something, but decided to keep her mouth shut instead.

Andrew, who was sitting next to Cherry, looked at her with tender eyes. Just like her, he lowered his head slowly. A faint smile formed at the corners of his lips.

The interview host certainly noticed their odd behavior. So, he laughed not without insisting a little bit more. "You two are both popular movie stars and have a big fanbase. Don't set a bad example for them. Our show is called The Truth. You can't lie to us."

The host's comment had excited the audience to the point that screams could be heard coming from their direction.

"Tell the truth... Tell the truth..."

Anne raised her eyebrows with surprise. It was the first time that she had noticed there were people watching this interview.

Unable to make a decision, Cherry shyly looked toward Andrew for some reassurance. The latter shook his head helplessly. "We have hidden it for so long. It's time to tell everyone about our relationship. Plus, we have such loving fans that they will support us to the end," he whispered to her.

The audience could actually listen to what Andrew had to say, however they still held their breath and looked at Cherry for confirmation.

The famous movie star couldn't help but hesitate for a while, but in the end, she seemed to have made up her mind. Thus, she nodded confidently and stood up from her seat. "You're right. We're dating. We're in a relationship!" she finally announced.

Upon hearing these words, the audience couldn't contain their excitement any longer and cheered for joy. The host beside them also smiled approvingly at the couple.

Anne's eyes widened with surprise as she turned to Kevin. The latter said casually, "When I read the information about Cherry, I noticed Andrew's name appeared multiple times. In fact, he has cooperated with her quite a lot. There were rumors about something between them back in the day, but they were all quickly dismissed by her."
