Renewal Of Love
Chapter 458 Visiting Rose

Sam nodded at Kevin's command and slowly wrapped his finger around the trigger in order to give Kim's subordinates a little more time to surrender. "We'll hand over our guns!" Kim's men had witnessed Sam's fearless action and immediately roared.

They had done everything they could and taken such a big risk to get Kim out of prison. If he died right here, what would their lives come to be?

It was the reality after all. They had always said that working for Kim was their sole purpose in life and, therefore, they were completely loyal to him!

After they admitted defeat, Kevin smiled triumphantly and approached them slowly. Meanwhile, those gangsters looked back at him with vengeful eyes, but this didn't have an impact on him at all.

Kevin looked around and figured there were only thirty people just like last time. So, he frisked them one by one in search of weapons, which he then discarded in bags.

After the cautious procedure, Kevin walked up to the most loyal bodyguard to take a look at his angry face. The former raised his eyebrows. "Don't worry. I remember you were the one who shot me on the leg. I'll give it back to you in a moment."

After saying that, Kevin immediately went upstairs to the top of the building.

When he finally arrived, Kevin suddenly raised his head and shot at the sky.

When everyone heard the gunshot, they immediately thought the worst had happened.

As expected, a group of police cars suddenly arrived at the scene and quickly surrounded the bodyguard and the others.

With their last ounce of revenge, everyone reached for their pockets to pull out their guns. However, it was at this moment they realized that their weapons had all been given to Kevin.

Meanwhile, the latter was looking down at the crowd with a big smile on his face. Kevin then glanced at Sam, who nodded back at him and slowly put away his pistol.

All the while, Kim's replacement pretended to be very calm, even though he had never seen something like this before. However, at this moment, he knew it was over. He dropped his guard and let out a sigh of relief. The tension had been so high. The thought of what happened just now made him almost fall to the ground. How could the real Kim act this way?

Right at that moment, the gangsters understood what was going on. So, they turned to Kevin, with a mix of confusion and fury in their eyes.

'Damn it! We got fooled!' That man definitely isn't Kim! He is just a substitute!'

In fact, these subordinates had been through very similar things in the past. How did they fail to realize what was happening?

Since everyone felt defeated and furious, they couldn't help but let out a heavy sigh. Now, the police was here and there was nothing they could do.

Kim's subordinates thought of confronting the police. However, as soon as they saw them drawing their guns out of their pockets, they could only grit their teeth. So, without further ado, the police quickly stepped forward and proceeded to handcuff them.

After Kevin witnessed the scene, he sighed slightly.

'Would Anne and I really be safe after this?'

It wasn't until midnight that Kevin and Sam returned to the Fu Family's residence. Even though it was late, Anne and Emily were still awake waiting for their arrival.

How could they sleep without making sure their respective partners came back home safely?

"Did all of them get arrested?" Anne went straight to Kevin, who she examined up and down to check for any possible wounds. As she hadn't found none, she let out a sigh of relief.

Kevin dropped his cold act and grabbed Anne's hands that were running all over his body to check his condition. It wasn't until then that she realized they were in the company of their friends. Immediately, Anne's face turned red. However, Emily and Sam were also in their own little world, talking with each other intimately. So, they didn't notice what Kevin and Anne were doing.

Kevin smiled helplessly and, in order not to bother the other couple, proceeded to explain to her what happened. "It was still the thirty of them that we met last time. But I always have a bad feeling." Anne nodded her head. She thought to herself, 'Last time, the bodyguard said that more than thirty people would come this time, so what happened to the others? Was it just a threat in order to scare us?' Unfortunately, Anne and Kevin couldn't replace out what really happened until they received the results of the interrogation.

Oddly enough, the interrogation went very well. No matter what the police asked them, Kim's subordinates would answer quickly to every question.

This was very surprising and a bit suspicious, but as long as they kept cooperating, everything would turn out fine.

Meanwhile, although Anne and Kevin had a lot of leisure time after this, they didn't dare to drop their guard. While Kim was still alive, there had to be bodyguards protecting the couple every day everywhere they went.

However, since no one else but Anne and Kevin knew what had happened, the crowd of onlookers were secretly laughing behind their backs.

Of course, they didn't take this seriously, but what made Anne feel helpless was that she was still labelled a whore among the netizens. One day, Peter came to Kevin's office.

As a matter of fact, neither Anne nor Kevin had seen Peter for a while before his surprising arrival. Now, all of a sudden, he was sitting comfortably on the office sofa, while waiting for the cup of coffee he asked.

Obviously, it was Kevin's assistant who brought Peter the drink again. Without waiting for him to talk, the assistant put the two cups in front of him. Then, he indicated eagerly that one had sugar and the other not.

This special service left Peter so confused that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. So, he looked at the assistant silently and memorized his face.

After Anne and Kevin witnessed the laughable scene, they had no choice but to shake their heads helplessly.

"Well, let's cut to the chase. What are you doing here? Just say it." Kevin fixed his cold eyes on him.

Peter ignored his question for a bit and lowered his head to take a look at Kevin's leg. Apparently, he had a speedy recovery.

"Well, to be honest with you, I have nothing to do here. I just wanted to tell you that I'm going abroad." Peter picked up the cup of coffee with sugar in front of him and slowly took a sip of the beverage. As soon as he got a taste of the drink, he immediately spat it on the floor.

Peter squeezed the bridge of his nose as if he was trying to understand something. Then, he put the cup back on its place and looked at Kevin seriously. "Kevin, you have billions of dollars. Why can't you afford a good assistant?"

Kevin didn't answer but chose to smile nervously at Peter. It seemed that the latter had a little grudge against his assistant, but, funnily enough, they had only met a few times in total.

So how did this come to be?

"Your assistant told me that this cup of coffee has sugar, but he lied! I wouldn't have known that, if I hadn't swallowed the drink! It's so bitter. I almost want to do you a favor and fire him!" Peter continued to judge the assistant, while taking a sip of the other cup on the table. Unfortunately, he found himself in the same situation as before. So, he shook his head and expressed his disapproval. "What's the use of an assistant who can't even make good coffee?"

In regard to this comment, Kevin could only rub his forehead. Obviously, he didn't approve of this idea, since he hadn't hired an assistant just to make coffee. What he searched for was someone who could help his boss with work.

Quite frankly, Kevin wasn't looking for a fight with Peter, so he went straight to the point. "Why are you going abroad?"

Peter was stunned by the question, so he looked back at the couple with confused eyes. "Didn't you know I've been living abroad for so many years? I only came back to claim my brother's heritage. But since you've recently given me an equivalent amount of cash, I don't see why I have to stay here any longer."

"So that's it? Is there no other purpose behind your actions?" Anne asked directly.

Peter raised his eyebrow in surprise and tried to decipher what she meant by that. In the meantime, Anne pursed her lips and proceeded to remind him of important events. "Peter, I don't know what you are up to, but I have to remind you that Kim killed your brother!"

At the mention of Ryan, his dear brother, Peter's playful demeanor changed. He nodded at Anne in a bid to reassure her that he still remembered.

In fact, Peter hadn't forgotten anything about it, but he didn't do what he should have done either. He never had the chance to avenge his brother's death.

A murderer must repay with his life just like a borrower with money. Unfortunately, he didn't honor Ryan like he should have, because, when Kim appeared in front of him, he never stood up for what was right. Instead, he helped Kim with a lot of things.

He certainly felt guilty about all of this.

"Anyway, Kim will be executed half a month from now. Although I wasn't the one responsible for this, it's enough to avenge my brother's death," Peter said to Anne in a serious tone.

She frowned at the last sentence. Kim was bound to die and together with his death, the grudges between them would be gone was well. As time passed by, they would soon forget everything about him and continued to live their lives.

"Anne, before Ryan died, he would always talk about you. In fact, he grew very fond of you and only had best wishes for you, even though he could never be something more to you. You and Kevin are a good couple and will live an eternal happy life!" Suddenly, Peter flashed a sincere smile to Anne.

Meanwhile, the latter, who was deep in thought now, could only look at him fondly.

What was astonishing to Anne, was the remarkable resemblance between Peter and Ryan. When she listened to his gentle voice, for a moment she could feel that it was Ryan talking to her, that it was him who gave Kevin and her the blessing.

"Everyone makes mistakes, including my brother. However, his final choice represented his real attitude. He was the epitome of a selfless person and he wanted you to live long and well. Only this way could my brother rest in peace." Peter's long but touching speech left Anne at a loss for words. After he walked away, she slowly closed her eyes, as she felt the tears forming in her eyes.

It was safe to say that Anne would never forget that Ryan sacrificed himself to protect her.

However, she couldn't help but think that, if he hadn't been so in love with her, he wouldn't have died like this.

"Anne, Peter is right. Ryan protected you with his own life, so he wanted you to be happy." Kevin hugged his wife from behind, as he whispered softly in her ear.

Anne nodded knowingly and leaned against her husband's chest. She knew what Ryan really thought!

"Ryan's blessing will grant me a good life and I will live to the fullest for him." His words were very meaningful to Anne, so she decided to live by them. She had wonderful children and an amazing husband; she had everything she could ever ask for. So, she wanted to honor Ryan and live up to his expectations.

Kevin nodded and held Anne tightly. Meanwhile, she looked at the sky outside with a faint smile on her face.

'Ryan, are you okay in heaven? I'm fine. Don't worry about me!'

In the afternoon, after hesitating for a long time, Anne decided to visit Rose with Kevin.

Since their first phone call, Rose had called her from time to time to check up on her. Fortunately, she was feeling in a much better mood ever since Mark was by her side once again. What was more, she seemed to be recovering from her anorexia.

At the same time, Anne had also called Mark to see how things were going for them. Luckily, he told her that he still wanted to be with Rose.

If this had happened in the past, Anne wouldn't really pay attention to these things. But now, Rose had apologized for everything and she was also part of her life. Furthermore, Mark was Anne's friend, so she would definitely help them if she could.

When the couple appeared at the hospital ward, Rose and Mark were certainly a little surprised. They weren't really shocked by Anne's presence, but by that of Kevin. They didn't expect him to be here! Rose's eyes grew wide open. As soon as she saw Kevin, she could hardly contain her astonishment.

From her point of view, no matter what happened to her, Kevin would never come to see her. But now he was here in front of her in the hospital ward! However, when Rose got a glimpse of Anne, all her astonishment faded away. She smiled at her faintly as she realized what was going on.

Kevin had come to see her, because of the reconciliation between her and Anne. He did this for his wife, not for her.

Sure enough, Anne was everything to Kevin!

When realization finally dawned on her, Rose decided it was time she gave up on Kevin.

"Sister! Kevin! You're here. Have a seat, please." Rose spoke softly with a smile on her face. Her eyes travelled to Anne's face.

Her soft tone was so surprising to Anne that it almost made her drop what she was holding. In fact, she had never heard her talk this way!

After she snapped out of her initial shock, Anne smiled at her fondly. She had never thought that one day Rose would sincerely call her "sister." Quite frankly, it sounded pretty good, especially now.

Meanwhile, Kevin also felt the same way as his wife. Then, he smiled and put the gifts they had brought aside.

These were nutritious products that would improve Rose's health greatly. He had bought them on Sam's advice.
