It was hard for him not to shake his head and smile. Anne was sleeping like a child and she looked
absolutely adorable.
“Anne, don't let me down!” Kim said in a low voice as he swept her hair away from her face.
Kevin, who had been monitoring, was also asleep by then so he wasn't able to hear what Kim said.
For a long time, Kim just sat on the edge of the bed. He didn't get up until it was the middle of the night.
From start to finish, Anne didn't have any idea that Kim was beside her.
In another note, Cherry was bothered by a lot of things. Recently, the most popular people were Anne
and Kevin. They didn't even belong to the entertainment world!
After the divorce, it was hard to get a hold of the two since Anne disappeared from the public eye and
Kevin was too powerful – no one dared to provoke him. So, Cherry was the only one people could
reach in the scandal. She was invited to shows and programs since she was connected to the both of
them.
Needless to say, Cherry did everything to demean Anne. She emphasized that she was just a victim
and she felt very aggrieved.
The pristine good image of Kevin had been maintained and Anne's image as a slut was deeply
ingrained in the public's mind. People who didn't know the truth truly felt bad for Cherry.
At first, Cherry thought that it would destroy her career. She didn't expect that Anne's actions would
catapult her into fame. At the moment, no one could beat her position as a female star. She had infinite
glory.
Once more, Cherry called Kevin.
It was very evident in Kevin's cold voice that he was getting impatient with her. With a threatening voice
he said, “Cherry, you better behave yourself. Stop slandering Anne! Otherwise, I will definitely make
you vanish in A City!”
It wasn't an empty threat. Kevin's influence and abilities guaranteed that he was telling the truth.
This was very surprising. Anne had abandoned him, yet he still wanted to protect her?
Wow! When did this man become so caring?
Anne left him already. Why was he still insisting on protecting her?
Her heart was full of ridicule for him, but Cherry was smart enough not to say it out loud. In a soft voice,
she said, “Kevin, I only did that because I felt sorry for you. But the past is in the past so let's not
mention it anymore. After all, we were both young back then. It was understandable for us to do
something that we regret.
Then you chose Anne and you were nice to her, but she has now betrayed you. She's in love with Kim!
I know you're sad. I get it. I'm also sad and I feel sorry for you. Whenever Anne was mentioned on
those programs, I couldn't help but feel so angry and that's why I said those words. I admit it's all my
fault. Even so, I still love you and genuinely feel sorry for you!”
It was very hard to talk to Cherry. Kevin held his forehead and put the phone away from his ear for a
while. He frowned slightly. They hadn't seen each other for a few days but she had become even more
adept at sweet words.
“I have left you a way out Cherry. You better cherish it!” There was a lot of things to do. Kevin didn't
have time to waste on her. As he was about to hang up, Cherry's voice stopped him.
“In A City, you're able to do anything you want. But don't you want to know the reason why I, who
should have been rotting in prison, am out right now? Also, netizens have figured out my past identity
but I'm still here and thriving. Aren't you curious how that's possible?
Honestly, Kevin wanted to know. When they sent her to prison, people in A City knew not to help her
out because they would become his enemy!
However, the man behind Cherry still helped her out. Furthermore, he even put her in the public eye
and made her a popular actress.
The man even had the ability to perfectly execute her change of identity. She was now Kristine!
So, the person behind her must not be simple. Was he a threat? Kevin wasn't so sure about that.
In business, he was a genius and undoubtedly powerful. It was only natural that a lot of people were
upset by him. Nevertheless, even if he carefully checked, the man behind Cherry wouldn't occur to him.
“What do you mean exactly?” he asked after hesitating for a while.
“Ha-ha…” The question pleased Cherry. “Kevin, I should warn you to be careful of the man backing me
up!”
“Who is he?” He continued to probe.
“He's my benefactor so of course I won't tell you. But if you can guess who it is from my constant clues,
then I'll have no choice but to reveal him.” The voice she used to subtly imply her intentions was still
delicate and affectionate.
He frowned because he easily guessed what Cherry meant. She wanted to have frequent contact with
him!
There was no doubt that Kevin hated her, but at this moment, he really wanted to know her benefactor.
And would the person cause any harm to them?
The enemies who were out in the open were not terrifying. It was the snakes in the dark who were truly
frightening because no one knew when and how they would attack. Also, they could surely cause a
severe injury that would be too difficult to heal!
“Okay!” Finally, Kevin gave in and agreed with Cherry.
With great satisfaction, Cherry hung up and a successful smile appeared on her face. She knew that
Kevin was a smart man, and he wouldn't pass up this opportunity.
In that case, she should prepare a bento and pay him a visit!
After all, she couldn't possibly let down the entertainment reporters who had followed her for days now,
could she?
