After Ryan went out of the coffee shop, he immediately chased Rose and tried to stop her.
As soon as she recognized the man standing in front of her, it instantly made her frown.
This was the person who saved Anne many times. If it hadn't been for him, that bitch would have died
in her hands!
Now, he had stopped her. What the hell did he want this time?
She asked impatiently, "Why did you stop me? What the hell is your problem?"
Ryan raised his eyebrows and curled his lips slightly, giving out a self-assured sneer. He thought, 'This
is not how Anne would react when he sees me.'
"Are you Rose?" Ryan asked even though he was already sure what the answer to that question was.
He himself was an impostor, so naturally, he could figure out what was going on.
The woman became even more impatient. "What? Can't you see? What do you want from me? If you
want to say something, just say it. If not, then please get out of my way and allow me to leave."
Her words just completely confirmed her identity.
Ryan looked at her from head to toe. In the photo, Rose looked like Anne, but there were still some
differences between them. Now, as he looked at this woman very closely, he could hardly see any
difference between her and Anne. Anyone would have found it difficult to tell them apart.
The two of them indeed had exactly the same face!
He shook his head slightly. Was this how much Rose wanted to be like Anne? She even copied how
she looked like!
At the realization, Ryan began to think how he could take advantage of it.
He then smiled, "Let's make a deal, Rose."
Rose raised her head and looked at him, scowling. She took a step back to maintain her vigilance.
The man who had been protecting Anne suddenly wanted to make a deal with her and something
about it seemed suspicious, so she had to be on guard.
"Rose, you know that I love Anne. But now Anne is already living a happy life with Kevin, and I can't
break them up. How about we two work together? I get Anne, and you get Kevin. What do you think?"
Ryan just went straight to the point, ignoring her irritation.
Rose was surprised, which was obvious because of her facial expression. "What do you plan on
doing?"
Of course, she knew that Ryan was in love with Anne, but she never expected that he would propose
to have this connivance with her.
He curled his lips as he silently laughed deep inside. He was going to show her soon what his plan
was.
He asked Rose to get in his car, and she did. She thought that no matter what his purpose was, she
had to give it a try. What if he led her to Kevin?
She had always wanted to be at Kevin's side, but he never gave her a chance since the beginning.
How could she make him fall in love with her if she didn't have the chance to see him?
Now, the only way was to trust Ryan.
"Ryan, I am warning you. I'm a member of the Luo Family. So if you have any hidden agenda behind all
this, you'd better think about the power behind me, or you'll be sorry for what you've done." She spoke
of her family as proudly as she could.
But Ryan didn't say anything and just gave her a faint smile with the corners of his mouth. The Luo
Family really was powerful.
But what did it have to do with him?
Rose breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Ryan drive through the bustling town. Suddenly, she
frowned. She noticed that there was a black car behind which seemed to have been following them
wherever they went.
She shook her head. When they passed through the intersection, she saw that the black car was still
tailing them. "Ryan, someone seems to be following us."
Ryan raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect Rose to be so observant. He smiled and said, "Well, you
don't own the road so anyone should be free to drive on it, right?"
Rose rolled her eyes and yet she thought he was right. She simply stayed quiet and kept an eye on the
car behind them.
After driving down another two roads, Ryan finally stopped the car and opened the door for her. She
got out of the car and saw herself standing in front of a club. She couldn't help raising her eyebrows.
Why were they at the back door?
"Is Kevin in there?" She started being filled with doubts.
Kevin was a noble man. Even though this club did not entirely look cheap, it was clearly still not good
enough for his taste. Why would he be here? Besides, it was far away from his company's location.
At this moment, Rose began to sense that something was fishy.
However, she didn't have any way to escape now that she was all the way over here in an unfamiliar
place.
"You're smart. Kevin isn't here," Ryan said indifferently with his arms crossed over his chest.
Rose looked at him in disbelief, her eyes wide open. Then she stepped back and asked, "Ryan, what
the hell are you doing? Why did you bring me here? I'm telling you, if anything happens to me, the Luo
Family would not spare you. You'd better..."
"Anne, since when did you use the Luo Family to back you up?" Before she could even finish her
words, she heard a cold voice coming from behind her which gave her chills.
Her body trembled and she immediately looked back. She furrowed her brows and found that there
were several men in black standing behind her.
"Who are you? What do you want?" she trembled and asked, looking at Kim's cold face.
Astonishment flashed through Kim's eyes. He raised his head to look at Ryan, who helplessly held his
forehead and said, "The woman in front of you said she was not Anne, but Rose."
Kim had ever seen Rose's photo, and she looked slightly different from Anne. He immediately
concluded that she was lying.
"Well, Anne, you got wiser indeed. Unfortunately, although you do look a lot like Rose, you can't look
exactly the same." He sneered.
Rose shook her head repeatedly and desperately explained the situation, "You're wrong. I'm really not
Anne. I'm Rose. I had a plastic surgery to make my face look exactly like Anne's."
Kim scowled at her and looked at Ryan. He shrugged his shoulders and took a step back.
"You want her, and I've brought her to you. As for whether you believe it or not, it has nothing to do with
me. By the way, don't forget what you promised me," Ryan told him calmly with a shrug, and then
looked at Rose with a gentle smile.
Ryan was always gentle with other people, but no matter who he was dealing with, he showed no
emotion in his eyes. He was as gentle as jade and calm as a pool of stagnant water. His genuine
tenderness would only show when he was looking at Anne.
So, the woman in front of him was really Anne, Kim thought. Yet he thought it better to be cautious.
"I will take you to see someone. That's when I would know whether you really are Anne or not." Kim
frowned impatiently.
Rose, with her eyes wide open, just looked at him in great disbelief. Did they want to kidnap her and
take her somewhere?
This was Ryan's plan all along!
He loved Anne so much that he would never put her in danger, so he set her up to replace Anne!
Bastard! What a bastard!
Rose shouted anxiously, "Do you know who I am? I'm Rose, the heir of the Luo Family. If you dare to
hurt me, I'll have you skinned alive. I..."
Before she could even finish her sentence, one of the men in black gagged her and threw her into the
car. She grimaced in pain, yet she had no choice but to stay quiet as she stared at Kim fiercely with her
big eyes.
At this moment, a gentle smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. His cold finger swept across
Rose's face and felt that she was trembling. He told her, smiling, "Anne, Simon misses you very much
when you were away."
'I, too, missed you a lot.'
Kim didn't say the actual words and only thought about it subconsciously as he touched his shoulder
where his scar was. The wound would never disappear, which was caused by Anne's bite.
Rose shouted hysterically. She couldn't decide whether she should be sad or glad that she was in such
a situation.
On one hand, she was glad that her face was exactly the same as Anne's, and on the other, she was
sad that she had to endure this pain for her.
'Why? Why? Why is it that Anne always enjoys the good and I am the one who always suffer?'
But then, no matter how indignant she was, she couldn't do anything to change her current situation.
Kim took her out of the A City and sent her directly to the H City.
At home, Simon was waiting for Kim. So as soon as he heard the door open, he instantly looked up
and widened his eyes. He saw Kim, and a woman tied up beside him. That woman...
"Mommy!" A sound of surprise came from Simon's mouth. He ran towards Rose with his short legs.
"Mom, Mom..." The little boy held Rose's thigh and started crying. She frowned and looked at him in
disgust. She would have kicked the kid away, but unfortunately, her legs were tied up.
Kim was skeptical about Anne's identity at first, but when he saw Simon behave around her like this, it
gave him assurance somehow.
"So, Anne... Do you think your child would mistake his own mother for someone else?" he looked at
Rose and told her with a smile.
She instantly felt a pang of despair in her heart. The child in front of her hugged her and called her
Mom!
She knew that this little boy was the son of Anne!
"Dad, why did you tie up Mom?" Kim had asked Simon to call him Dad instead of uncle ever since that
day, and the little kid did not really have any choice but to call him that.
Rose widened her eyes and looked at Simon in disbelief. Seeing her reacting like this made Kim think
that he was truly right about her identity.
However, this was not what Rose actually thought. She simply was surprised because she thought
Kevin was the father of Anne's child. She didn't expect that it was the man in front of her who was the
father!
Who was this man in front of her? Rose looked around the house. The magnificence of the house
showed that it was a wealthy family.
"Good boy, Simon. I'll untie your mother right now." He ruffled the kid's head and then slowly untied
Rose.
"Anne, I can tolerate your willfulness. But don't play these tricks again, or there will be consequences,"
he threatened her coldly as he untied her.
Her body trembled as she looked at the men in black around her one by one. Although she couldn't
figure out who Kim was, she knew at least one thing—that he was a dangerous person.
After being untied, Rose stood there in a stiff manner. She trembled at the sight of Kim's eyes.
The man, however, only shook his head with a smile, turned around, and left without doing anything to
her.
Simon grabbed Rose's leg and smiled sweetly. "Mom, you're finally back. I knew you wouldn't abandon
me. I miss you so much. You're finally back. Where's my sister? Why didn't my sister come back? Is my
sister with Dad?"
Hearing these strange words, being restless as she was, she pushed Simon aside and sat on the sofa,
rubbing the red marks left by the tight rope.
'Damn it! He really didn't go easy on me even though I'm a woman!' she thought to herself as she
caressed her limb to try to relieve the pain she felt.
Sitting on the ground, Simon couldn't believe what just happened. His own mother just pushed him to
the ground and she looked at him with disgust. What was going on? Was it because he called Kim his
"dad"?
