Renewal Of Love

Chapter 292 Karma

Ryan was relieved. He thought once he got out of the car, he would be safe. However, his relief didn't

last long. He found that there was a car parked next to him. Several tall and strong men stood outside,

clad in black outfits.

"What are you going to do with me? Let me remind you, I'm Ryan, the president of KIA Group. If you

dare to hurt me, you will be in big trouble." As Ryan spoke, he was pulled out of the car by several

men, and Sam also got out.

Looking at Ryan's frenzy behavior, Sam sneered and said, "I know you are Ryan and you are exactly

the person we are after."

For some reason, seeing Sam elevated some of Ryan's fear. He said, "Sam, I know why you caught

me."

As he spoke, a sinister smile appeared on his face. Ryan knew that Sam wouldn't do anything to him.

After all, he wanted to know Anne's whereabouts.

"I am glad you know why we are here. That will save us some time. So tell me, where is Anne?" Sam

kicked Ryan on his shin. Unable to bear the pain, he knelt down and let out a scream.

"If you want to know her whereabouts, you better behave well," Ryan spat out, gritting his teeth.

"No, Ryan, you are wrong." A cold and arrogant man came. This voice belonged to none other than

Kevin.

Ryan raised his head and found that Sam, who was known for his gentleman temperament, seemed

quite angry. It looked like he wanted to kill him.

"Kevin, I don't think I am wrong. Don't forget that I am the only one who knows where Anne is. If you

want to see her, be polite to me." He was planning to use Anne's whereabouts as a bargaining chip.

However, he thought it was a pity that Anne didn't come back with him. If she was in his hands, Kevin

would have been more polite to him.

Kevin slowly walked towards Ryan and stopped beside him. Looking up, Ryan noticed Kevin's eyes

were as cold as ice. A shiver ran through his body.

No matter what he did, when Kevin stood near him, he felt quite insignificant. And he loathed this

feeling.

"If I am right, Anne is not with you but with Kim," Kevin said with a smile.

"Kim?" Ryan asked in confusion.

Kim was the president of CY Group who was well-known for making people tremble with fear. But how

could Nicholas be Kim?

Seeing Ryan's somewhat confused look, Kevin's eyes brimmed with sarcasm.

"Ryan, do you know you have lost this battle? And may I tell you why?" There was a hint of pity in

Kevin's voice. This was worse than a slap.

Ryan couldn't accept the truth. But the more he looked into Kevin's eyes, the more he realized this was

indeed the truth. Nicholas was Kim.

"You were so eager for success. You didn't bother to do proper enquiry before choosing your partner.

You aimed for instant result. What a shame! And you thought you succeeded. In other words, your

arrogance made you a loser."

Kevin's words pricked, making Ryan feel like a complete idiot. He couldn't let him know how much his

words hurt. Sneering, he said, "So what? Even if I am in your hands now, you can't defeat Kim. If you

don't let me go, I will make sure you will never see Anne again in your life."

"Ryan, it seems that in spite of everything, you haven't come to terms with your current situation. You

are being used by Kim!"

Kevin wished to knock some sense into Ryan. But it was of no use. He shook his head and said, "Why

do you say that? We have reached an agreement. Now your company will be in big trouble. Stop trying

to pretend like everything is fine!"

Ryan couldn't understand why Kevin was so calm and composed.

Just then, Sam said coldly, "Looks like you are still determined to create troubles for the AN Group.

Your priority should be your own company! Why did Kim refuse to let his CY Group show up and insist

on exposing your company? He just used your company as a cover." NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

It was obvious to everyone that Ryan had been deceived. Kevin couldn't help but shake his head.

'Ryan is the biggest loser,' he thought pitifully.

"No, it's not possible. KIA Group is a big company. Kim will not dare to harm my company," Ryan said,

raising his voice. He was starting to panic.

"Do you really think he can't harm your company? Ryan, you are too naive. If he can hurt my company,

he could easily swallow yours! Don't be so delusional," Kevin said, glaring at him.

Ryan felt as if he had been struck by a lightning.

"I won't kill you because you are not worth it. On the contrary, I am going to let you go because I want

you to watch your company collapse. I will let you see how your efforts will slowly get hollowed out. In a

matter of time, you will turn from a CEO that everyone admires to a pauper who has nothing. That's

what you get for hurting Anne!"

Kevin's voice seemed to come from hell. Now it suddenly dawned on Ryan why Kevin didn't take

actions against him before. It turned out that he didn't bother to.

But deep down, he still thought Kevin was bluffing. Kevin shouldn't have that astonishing power to turn

the table.

"Kevin, if my company has closed down, do you think Kim will let you go?" Ryan retorted back.

He was not reconciled. He had worked way too hard. Now he knew that only two top forces could

participate in this competition. He was nothing but a contemptible scoundrel.

At the thought of this, he began to writhe with fury. His eyes turned red. Looking at Kevin, he was

brimming with both jealousy and hatred.

"Kim won't mind. It's just a negotiation between us. Let him go, but we'll keep an eye on him at every

airport, every station and every dock. If he attempts to leave, arrest him immediately." After saying that,

Kevin got in the car with Sam and drove away.

Physically, Ryan didn't have any injury. But deep down, he was in pain. After all, he lost the battle

before it began.

He also realized that Kevin had once again proved his superiority!

The island was surrounded by water.

Everywhere she looked, she could see nothing but water. Even if there was a large cruise ship, it would

go around the island.

This was a small island but it was detached from the rest of the world.

Once Anne was done studying the terrain of the island, she understood the reason why Nicolas had

given her the freedom to walk around. He was smart enough to know that no matter how far she went,

she would not be able to leave.

"Miss, it's time for dinner," the servant announced, bringing her out of her reverie.

Anne raised her head and glanced at the sun. It was just setting. Standing here, it looked like the sea

would consume the sun and drown it. There was something about this place that brought a sense of

desolation.

"Got it," Anne said, trying to calm herself down.

Even though she knew she would be locked in this secluded area, she told herself she had to take

good care of herself. Her baby's health was her number one priority.

"Please follow me." The servant led the way, and Anne silently followed her.

There was a restaurant in this uninhabited island. Anne observed it was quite unique. It had the

advantage of natural terrain, adding charm to it. It was constructed in such a way that the wind wouldn't

disturb it. However, one could look at the vast sky while they ate from there.

When Anne arrived, she noticed that Kim was already there.

There seemed to be a faint smile on his lips. There was no mockery nor was there any warmth in it.

One couldn't decipher that smile.

Standing ten meters away from Kim, the servant refused to go forward.

"Why don't you go there?" asked Anne, noticing her discomfort.

"The young master has strict orders. We are not allowed to enter. This is his private territory." The

servant's voice trembled at the mention of Kim. Obviously, she was afraid of her master.

Hearing this, Anne came to a halt. She turned around and said to the servant, "I'm not going to eat

here. Send my food to my room."

Anne had a hunch that Kim wasn't the kind of person who liked others to occupy his territory, so she

didn't intend to offend him. She'd better stay away from people who were moody.

After Anne turned around and left, Kim raised his head and looked at her receding figure. The smile in

his face suddenly disappeared. A gloomy expression crept upon his face instead.

The night was approaching. There was nothing but waves and waves of water. Without the sound of

cars and other vehicles, it was quite peaceful over here. Therefore, Anne managed to sleep as soon as

her head hit the pillow.

When she woke up, she found that Kim was in her room. Shocked, Anne sat up, pulling her quilt over

her body.

She noticed anger in Kim's eyes. It was quite subtle and she took another look before she was sure he

was indeed angry.

"Why did you break into my room? I admit that the whole villa is yours. But don't you think I have the

right to protect my privacy?" Anne questioned in a cold voice.

As Kim heard Anne's voice, his eyes twinkled. "Aren't you afraid of me?" he asked.

"Why should I be afraid? Are you a demon or a monster? You are just a human. I don't see what is

there to be afraid of!" Anne replied quite bravely.

Kim's eyes twinkled again. "You are the second person who dared talk to me like that."

Hearing this, Anne was a bit confused. "Who is the first one?"

Kim smiled, but it wasn't a genuine smile. It was one that reeked of sarcasm. "The first person to

challenge my authority is dead."

A shiver ran down her spine after hearing his response.

Before she could say something, someone knocked on the door. Kim opened the door but didn't close

it. The servant whispered something in his ear and he left immediately.

The encounter she had with Kim was quite weird. She didn't know what to do. She attempted to sleep

again but that didn't work. With a sigh, she got off the bed and decided to go out for a walk.

Her mind was constantly thinking about Kim. He locked her up here but gave her the freedom to walk

around, and he didn't do anything to hurt her. She really couldn't make out what kind of a person he

was.
