Renewal Of Love
Chapter 52 Is She Worth Two Hundred Million

"As for Alan, I will explain it to him. I don't need you to show up again." Kevin stared at Cole coldly, as if his glance was a piece of polar ice. "Was I too ignorant of you? Have you just lost your morality? Since when did you start to take on dirty jobs too?"

"Business is business! You must have heard this saying, right?" Cole pulled a long face and asked seriously, "Are you willing to pay two hundred million dollars or not?"

Even though Anne knew that Kevin wasn't willing to, she still wanted to hear it from him.

Yes or no?

"What if I don't want to?" Kevin raised his head and looked at Cole. "Two hundred million to save this woman? That's unnecessary."

A bitter smile emerged from the corners of the Anne's lips as she looked down. In fact, she already predicted this outcome, but she was unwilling to admit it.

Cole's eyes fixated on Anne's face for a moment. Noticing the change of her expression, he looked at Kevin with a smile. "Really? Is that so? You mean to say that you're not going to save her?"

Kevin was not a fool. Even if he wanted to save the baby, it was still in Anne's womb. Therefore, no matter what, he had to save her. In other words, he had to pay the two hundred million ransom.

He narrowed his eyes, and the tension in the atmosphere felt heavier.

He immediately looked up. "Cole, do you know what you're doing?"

"Nothing. I was only kidding." Cole laughed and looked at the woman with his raised eyebrows. "I wanted to play it with you, but it seems like the ending can already be predicted."

He paused and waved at his men. "Forget it. Let's go. This is boring."

Cole left with a large group of his men. He looked so arrogant and flamboyant.

Anne stood straight from the chair. She turned her head and looked at Kevin with her clear eyes.

"Thank you."

"For what?" Kevin raised his brows and asked.

"Thank you for saving me." Coldness flashed in her eyes. "No, it's to save the baby in my womb."

Two hundred million was not a small amount. Even though for Kevin, it was not that big of a deal. However, it was impossible for Anne to pay off the money all her life.

Kevin turned around and said in an icy voice, "You're welcome. As you've said, it had nothing to do with you. It was to save my baby."

His words left Anne a little stunned. Her expression didn't change that much.

"What are you going to do with Alan?"

If he failed this time, Alan would not let it go. He would definitely take action for Ruth's sake once more.

Kevin's eyes darkened.

"I will handle it myself."

He swept his eyes across the room and spitted in disgust. People like Cole always did things at such a disgraceful level. Couldn't he use a more high-end place for kidnapping?' After he looked around, he reached for the door.

He was about to leave, but he didn't hear a sound behind him. He turned around and scowled at the woman who didn't want to move an inch. "What are you doing? You don't want to leave?" Anne kept her gaze still and said, "I'll go back by myself."

"Are you kidding me?" he asked impatiently. "Do you want to go out and see the surroundings by yourself? Do you know how long it took me just to replace you?"

"I didn't ask you to come to me,"

Anne lowered her head and whispered.

She was telling the truth. She didn't expect that Kevin would turn up and save her. Didn't he say that he wouldn't interfere in Ruth's matters?

"You..."

Kevin stared at her with his eyes that burned in anger.

"Are you stupid?"

Anne bit her lips and glared at him. "Enough? Am I wrong? I never asked you to save me. I haven't even thought about it," she answered. "Then who do you think will come and save you?"

"Of course-"

The name "Sam" almost slipped out of her mouth. When she saw that Kevin's face turned blue, she managed to press her lips tightly and didn't dare to say anything more.

In all honesty, she didn't want to die. The temperature of the air decreased at a fast pace. If she continued to stay here, she would freeze to death.

"Who is it?"

Kevin took a step and shortened the distance between them. His eyes focused on her. He stared at the woman who had her brows tightly creased. A cold, hard smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. Anne clenched her fists tightly when she saw how Kevin walk slowly towards her. Gloom spread across her face.

"No one. I just said it casually."

"I'm sure that you're well aware that lying to me will never come to a good end, Anne."

Kevin grabbed her arm after he spoke. Her frown deepened. She screamed when she felt a little pain.

Kevin's grip was so firm that it was impossible to break free.

She couldn't comprehend why this man was upset again. She didn't say anything, yet he got so angry.

"I didn't lie to you."

Under his oppressive aura, Anne twisted her arm and tried to break free from his cruel grip.

However, no matter how hard she struggled, Kevin didn't want to let her go.

She growled anxiously in a low voice, "Kevin, what the hell do you want? Let go of me!"

"Let go of you?" Kevin sneered. His eyes flared as he looked at Anne. "I'll let you go soon, but you better behave yourself for the rest of the time."

Anne looked up at him stubbornly, unwilling to give in.

"I know. I don't need you to remind me"

"You don't need me to remind you?" Kevin shook Anne's arm and asked, "If you really know what you should do, why did you go out alone today?" The man held her so tight that she almost fell to her knees.

She was thrown out violently. Her ankle twisted in the process, which caused her to fall back. Fortunately, there was a wall behind her to lean back.

Still, the pain from her foot was intense from being twisted.

"There's no food at home. Is it wrong for me to go out and buy something?"

With a sharp pain, she raised her head and looked at Kevin. Suddenly, she felt a chill in her heart. "Do you want me to starve to death? Or do you want your baby to starve to death?" Kevin's expression changed when he heard her sentiment.

"What did you say? There was no food at home?"

Anne straightened herself up and glared at him. "Or what? Why do you think I went to the supermarket early in the morning?"

It was not until then that Kevin realized that the woman had moved out of that house for a long time. There should be nothing left in there.

He left in a hurry yesterday. Why didn't he think of this?

"Okay, I know." His expression returned to normal. He glared at her and commanded in his usual cold voice, "Let's go back."

Anne lowered her head and tried to stand up to catch up with him.

However, the pain in her foot made her unable to move. She bit her lower lip so hard that it almost turned pale, but she still couldn't move even an inch. "What's wrong with you now?"

Kevin completely lost his patience. He turned around and saw the woman's forehead sweating profusely. His heart twitched at the sight. "What's wrong with you?"

He rushed back to Anne and saw her biting her lip with a painful expression on her face.

Even though she was in pain, the woman refused to answer him. What was the point of saying anything? She was not dumb enough to be scolded again. "It's none of your business,"

she answered stubbornly. The last person she wanted to rely on was Kevin whenever she was hurt. She didn't want to be looked down upon by him. "What's wrong with you?"

He couldn't bear to see her in pain, so he took the initiative to examine her body. Finally, he saw that her ankle looked swollen.

"Did you sprain your ankle?"

"Thanks to you," she answered sarcastically as she glared at him. Her face was devoid of any emotion. If Kevin hadn't pushed her so hard, she wouldn't have sprained her ankle. Kevin frowned and asked, "Did I do this?"

"Forget it," she dismissed. "I said you don't need to worry about it. You can go back first. I will go back by myself." She stepped forward and endured the pain that came with every step she took. "Let me carry you."

Kevin's voice was so near. She doubted that she had heard him wrong. Still, she chose not to respond.

Kevin scowled. "Didn't you hear me?"

Her heart skipped a beat at this. She stiffened and asked, "What did you say?"

"I'll carry you to the car." His car was parked on the road. Since the place was remote, it was impossible to drive the car in.

If she wanted to go back, Kevin had to carry her.

Anne turned around and rejected him, "No, I can do it myself."

He sighed and walked up to her. He squatted down and commanded, "Come up."

It was an irresistible order. She looked at the broad shoulders in front of her. She hesitated and refused to go up.

Kevin couldn't wait anymore, so he picked up her hands and latched them around his neck. "Hold on tight."

He straightened up his back and effortlessly carried Anne on it.

The moment he felt her body against his, upset and loneliness occupied his being. For a one-month pregnant woman, Anne felt light.

On the other hand, the woman could feel her heart beating faster than before. His back was so broad and warm that people would want to approach and hold him subconsciously.

"Why did you carry me on your back?"

She looked around and found out that the road back was not as easy as she thought because tall grass was everywhere. It would have been difficult to walk alone, not to mention, Kevin had her on his back.

"Or what? Do you really want to go back by yourself as you've said?"

He lifted her up and continued to walk forward. It was getting dark. The road ahead was barely visible.

'Damn it! Cole was so good at choosing a place. What a damned choice!' he cursed to himself.

"I thought you wouldn't care about me."
