Renewal Of Love -
Chapter 515 Lure The Tiger Out Of Its Den (Part Two)
Rose burned with anxiety, annoyed that Anne was not taking the matter seriously. She was about to continue ranting when the latter walked up and whispered something in her ear. Hearing that, Rose breathed a sigh of relief and later burst into laughter.
Looking at the couple in front of her, Rose realized that she had been so anxious that she forgot how clever and able they were.
"But still, we can't underestimate Kim!" she argued. As she thought of what had happened in the past, a sense of fear lingered on her. Kim was not only Anne and Kevin's nightmare but also hers. And now, the monster was back to haunt them down again.
"Don't worry. Kim can't escape this time!" A trace of seriousness coated Kevin's voice.
And because of that, Rose chose to believe his words.
Then, turning to the little girl in his arms, she asked, "Is this Ella? She is so beautiful!" Rose had seen the girl's photo on Anne's phone. The kid looked as delicate as a doll, and she didn't expect to see her more exquisite and beautiful in person.
Staring at the child's face, Rose thought that Ella's parents must be really handsome and beautiful.
"Hello, auntie," Ella greeted her politely, much to Rose's delight.
The next second, Kevin accompanied the child while both Anne and Rose went to prepare for the show. This was the first major event organized by their company, so they had many things to prepare. Meanwhile, Cherry's phone continued ringing. Annoyed by the persistent caller, she turned it off and hid in the room with the lights shut, and the curtains closed. She slumped there in the darkness, burying her head in her knees and refusing to face reality.
Yes, she had done a lot of terrible things, and this must be her punishment now. But she was willing to correct her mistakes and redeem herself. However, it seemed nobody would give her the chance. 'You all want to smother me to death! You all want to kill me!' Cherry cried in her hearts. Tears streamed down her face like a waterfall while a lump had seemingly stuck on her throat.
At this point, Cherry's company couldn't get in touch with her, so they had no choice but to ask her assistant for help. The guard knew the assistant, so he allowed her in. However, after knocking on the door couple of times and hearing no response, the latter prepared to leave.
Meanwhile, Cherry, Luke, and Alan all heard the knocks, but all of them chose to ignore it.
And when the clock hit the midnight hour, another series of knocking resounded on the door. This time, it was even more aggressive.
Luke touched his forehead and looked up at Alan impatiently. With his brows furrowed together, he asked, "Why is this assistant so persistent? She has knocked on the door more than 20 times! Why is she stil here?"
Alan also frowned, but he said nothing, also tired of this stubborn assistant. "Kristine, it's me, Andrew!" Suddenly, a baritone voice blared from the door.
Liker Meerkats, Luke and Alan quickly glanced at the entrance at the same time. Unexpectedly, it was not the annoying assistant who came this time, but Andrew! Why was he here?
Squinting his eyes, Alan recalled the time he warned Andrew in prison. And judging from the latter's actions recently, he obviously knew what was the right thing to do to protect his own future! Alan already had an inkling of what Andrew came for this time.
"Since he is Cherry's boyfriend, we can't keep him outside," Alan uttered with a faint smile. Then, he stood up and opened the door.
Standing outside was Andrew, who showed no signs of surprise when he saw Alan. Instead, he nodded at the latter while boasting a poker face.
"Well, since you are here, come in," greeted Alan as he stepped aside to let the man inside.
Nodding, Andrew maintained his expressionless face. He had almost died in Alan's hands, so how could he dare to be disrespectful to him? If more, he was even more afraid of him now.
As soon as Andrew walked in, he saw Luke sitting on the sofa. Immediately, a cold light glinted in his eyes, but he quickly looked away.
Of course, he knew everything about Luke and Cherry, and because of that, he disdained the man. However, he was clear about his own purpose of coming here today. He couldn't get involved in their matters. "Where is Kristine?" Andrew turned to look at Alan.
The latter pointed at Cherry's room and answered indifferently, "She has been in her room all day."
Nodding, Andrew walked over and looked at the closed door. Right now, his eyes were filled with complex emotions that were difficult to fathom. He slowly raised his hand, attempting to open it, only to hesitate at the last minute.
Turning away from the door, Andrew struggled to decide whether to stay or leave. 'No, I have to do this. Working in this industry is like crossing a thin little log over an abyss! If I stumble, I will fall on the abyss below!
I'm really sorry. I can't do anything about it now. So, even if you won't forgive me, I still have to do it!'
"Kristine," he called softly after heaving a deep breath. He raised his hand again with all his strength and knocked on the door gently.
Meanwhile, Cherry, who had been burying her head between her legs, froze when she heard Andrew's voice.
She didn't expect that he would come here at this point!
It was human nature to play up to the mighty and step on the weak, but she never thought that Andrew would do such a thing to her one day!
'Cherry, Cherry! Do you know what a pity this is for you? When a tree falls, the monkeys will scatter that is what life really is. Even friends and family can turn their backs on you when everything goes downhill,' she reminded herself.
