Renewal Of Love

Chapter 524 Back To Prison

Eddy was more important to Kevin than anything else in the world. His son was always his priority, so

he dismissed his duties to stay with him.

However, they had stayed up for too long and needed rest. They still had to deal with a lot of problems,

and it was impossible to do it when their brains were exhausted.

Ella was standing quietly in a corner as no one had bothered to bat an eyelid at her. She bit her lip and

turned to look at Selma.

"Grandma, are you sleepy? If you are tired, sleep for a while. I will wake you up later," she said cocking

her head to the side. Eddy had made it clear that he didn't blame her. The heavy weight in the little

girl's heart was lifted. Her sweet words of comfort warmed Selma's heart.

Selma smiled and shook her head, thinking that Ella was a considerate child.

Anne got out of the car once they arrived home. "I don't care about the designers anymore. They can

just leave as they like. I just want to see Eddy." She frowned.

"But what about Simon and Sally?" Kevin asked.

Anne gritted her teeth and sucked in a big breath. Simon and Sally were also her children. She loved

them as much as she loved Eddy.

"Well, Mother and I have managed to get some sleep in the past three days. You have been staying up

day and night. God, look at your face! You are exhausted. I don't want you to collapse when Eddy

recovers." Kevin smiled tenderly. "It's not just Eddy. Simon and Sally would be upset if they find out that

you are exhausted."

Anne nodded. Kevin was right, but she wasn't comfortable with the way Kevin made her rest. He just

forcefully took her home, against her will.

She sometimes felt that Kevin was overbearing.

Anne snorted and returned to her bedroom. She locked the door and went to sleep.

Kevin stared at the bolted door and shook his head helplessly.

Just then, Simon and Sally ran downstairs. Kevin squatted down and swept the two of them into his

arms. "Did you guys miss Dad?" asked he.

Sally grabbed Kevin's arm and shook her head fiercely, looking like a cute puppy. "I missed you so

much. I was always thinking about you. Daddy didn't come home for a long time, so I thought that you

had forgotten me."

"Really? Did you really miss me so much?" All fathers in the world loved their daughters, and Kevin

was no exception. His face lit up with joy when Sally told him that she had missed him.

Simon curled his lips in disdain but didn't tell the truth.

In the past three days, Sally had done nothing but eat, drink, and sleep. She hadn't missed her father

one bit. Now, she was lying through her teeth to win Kevin's heart.

"Yes, of course. I am a good girl. I never lie." Sally pouted.

Kevin's heart fluttered with joy. The tiredness on his face vanished in an instant. He hugged Sally

tighter and kissed her cheeks.

His little girl was adorable.

Simon frowned and tugged on to Kevin's pants. The man looked at his son, gesturing for him to speak.

"Dad, what have you been doing with Mom and Grandma for the past three days? The maids refused

to tell us what's going on. Everything seems mysterious."

Eddy's illness had worn them out. They had no choice but to hide the truth from the children.

"Where are Kevin and Ella? Where have they gone?" Sally whined. "Did you take them out to have

fun? You left us here because you think we are too young?"

Kevin shook his head fiercely. "Of course not! If I go out to fun places, I always make sure to take Sally

with me!"

A smile tugged at the corners of Sally's lips. She nodded, feeling satisfied. However, she was still

confused. Where had they gone?

Simon cast a quizzical glance at Kevin -- he was equally confused.

Anne had drifted off to sleep the moment she lay on the bed.

After three days of worrying, she finally seemed to relax after Eddy regained consciousness. Kevin was

right -- she was exhausted and needed ample rest.

After playing with the two children, Kevin went to the guest room to sleep. But he couldn't rest in peace

that night. After three hours of disturbed sleep, he crept out of the villa and drove away.

Sally and Simon were awake the entire time. They saw their father leaving the house. Sally turned

around and looked at Simon. "Don't you think that something is wrong, Simon? Mommy and Daddy are

hiding something from us. Mommy went to sleep without seeing us. Daddy stopped us when we tried

going to her bedroom, saying that she has fallen asleep."

Anne always made it a point to spend time with her kids and play with them regardless of how tired she

was. This was the first time she had gone to bed without seeing them.

Simon nodded in agreement. He, too, felt that something was strange.

"When Dad went to sleep, I tried going to Mom's room. But the maid stopped me. She told me that

Mom is tired and has fallen asleep; she asked me not to disturb her," Simon said.

Sally knitted her brows in confusion. The two kids looked at each other. They sensed that something

was wrong but couldn't find out what it was.

They felt that their parents had joined with Eddy and Ella to hide something from them.

"It's so unfair! It's so unfair! We are only two years younger than Eddy, but Mommy and Daddy treat

him like an adult and us as little kids who know nothing. It's so unfair!" Sally huffed angrily, placing her

hands on her waist.

Simon dropped his gaze to the ground without uttering a word.

He didn't like the unfair treatment either.

Kevin drove to the LF Group instead of going to the hospital. Eddy's recovery was the most important

thing in his life at the moment. But Kevin knew that behind the dispute between the LF Group and the

TS Company was a vicious person lurking in the dark, waiting to ruin their lives.

The man was the reason why Eddy was admitted to the hospital. If he hadn't manipulated Ella, Eddy

wouldn't have been frightened by the girl's strange behavior and fallen ill.

The ones who wreaked havoc in their lives didn't deserve to live. Kevin was determined to get rid of his

enemy.

Meanwhile, Cherry's true identity had come to light. The people got to know that she had been

deceiving everyone all this while as Kristine. She pushed the reporters away, went to her house, and

packed all her things. Staying in the community would only draw more reporters, so she left right away.

Alan and Luke had watched the news from beginning till the end, ignoring Cherry's abnormal behavior.

They didn't do anything after the woman left the house with her belongings.

It had been three days after Cherry left her house.

The police caught her at a shabby hotel.

She was sitting on the bed, holding her head in her arms. Her long, black hair concealed her face -- no

one could read her expression. She looked like a frail doll that would break at any time.

After a long silence, Cherry lifted her head and looked at the police. "I'm not Cherry. Believe me!"

The policeman leading the team was a middle-aged man. "Well, we can't believe your statement until

you prove it."

He scoffed.

Cherry's heart sank. Where would she find the evidence to support a lie that she wanted the world to

believe? She was Cherry -- that was the truth, and the truth could not be hidden forever.

Her life was falling apart. Everything was going well. She was finally beginning to live a happy life, but

the truth of her past had come to haunt her once again.

She had tried her best to hide the secret. How did the reporter find the truth? Moreover, the man had a

different proof than the one Alan had used to threaten her. How could he have possibly found out that

she was Cherry?

Cherry's mind was a mess; she couldn't figure out anything.

"Well, you still have a lot of things to clarify. We need to make a statement. Come to the station right

away," the policeman said in a cold voice.

Cherry's eyes widened; her heart leaped to her throat. She wriggled out of the officer's hold and shrank

to the innermost corner of the bed. "No, I will not come to the police station! I can't get out of here! I am

a popular star; my career will come to an end if I go to the police station. I won't let that happen."

The policeman sneered distastefully.

The popular actress Kristine, Kevin's ex-girlfriend, was a murderer. The revelation had shocked

everyone in the industry. The evidence proved her guilty. The fans, who once adored Cherry, despised

her now.

The people who revered her felt betrayed. The woman had cheated them all this while.

Everyone was waiting for her to get the punishment she deserved. They wanted to see her behind

bars.

"Kristine, we advise you to cooperate." Two young policemen stepped forward and handcuffed Cherry. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

"What the hell? Why are you arresting me? Do you have any proof that I am Cherry? I will call my

lawyer. You can't accuse me of something I didn't do! I'll sue you for slander! You can't get away with

this! Let me go! Let me go!" Cherry screamed hysterically. Her tousled hair covered her pale face; she

looked like an evil being.

The chief of police waved his hands in exasperation. 'The woman used to be an elegant beauty once.

But she has stooped too low now, ' thought he.

Meanwhile, at Cherry's mansion

Alan ordered food and sat on the chair, cross-legged. His eyes dazzled with happiness and excitement.

He was in a good mood.

However, Luke felt uneasy.

"Alan, let's leave this place as soon as possible."

"Okay, leave if you want!" He waved his hand.

"Aren't you leaving?" Luke was confused. He was a policeman, so he knew what the police force was

capable of doing. They would find Cherry in less than a week.

The woman was a criminal, so they would come here to confiscate her things and seal the house. They

would be in trouble if the police saw them. Luke felt that it was better to leave before the police drove

them out of the house.

"Because..." Alan stood up and smiled at Luke. "This house is mine!" he remarked, stretching his arms

as if embracing the aura of the place.

Luke's jaw dropped in shock. "What? What did you say?" he asked, shaking his head in disbelief.

Alan was no longer the same guy he once was. The man was determined to ruin Cherry's life in every

possible way now.

He knew that Cherry would go to jail sooner or later, so he had stolen her identification credentials. The

mansion belonged to him now.

The police might come to confiscate her belongings, but they wouldn't be able to seize the house.

Alan had avenged his sister's death by sending Cherry to jail. The mansion was the price that Cherry

had to pay for all the problems she had caused in the past. Therefore, Alan didn't feel that he had done

anything wrong.

"So you are not welcome here anymore. Leave now!" Alan no longer needed Luke, so he didn't bother

trying to be nice to him.

The man thought that Luke would turn Cherry's life into a living hell, but he didn't imagine that the truth

would be out soon. Luck was in Alan's favor; the world found out Cherry's true identity.

Although he was disappointed that the game had come to an end before he had expected, Alan was

still happy. Cherry finally got the punishment she deserved.
