Chapter 349 Photos Went Public (Part One)
Rose's disappearance was quiet. Everyone had conveniently forgotten her,
of course, except for the Luo Family.
Naturally, they came to Anne for explanation. She told them what had happened, concealing Rose's
kidnapping incident.
The Luo Family had no choice but to call the police.
But the police could do little even when Anne had disappeared. They had been looking for her for two
years, but they always came up empty-handed.
Although Kim's power in A City was not as great as that of Kevin, it had still been easy for him to hide a
person.
However, Anne wanted to conceal the truth from Luo Family.
But Kevin was worried.
In A City, he had countless spies, but that didn't stop Kim from showing up.
Anne's safety was Kevin's main priority. He immediately sent more men to protect his wife.
As if the tense situation was not enough, another problem was added on their already full plate and that
was Anne's photos, which were stored in the laptop, went public.
Before they could find the stolen laptop, this disaster took place.
Kevin was a well-respected man but now, everyone was frowning upon his wife after her photos were
exposed, causing a scandal and marring Kevin's name.
Although Anne wasn't naked in the photos, there was no doubt that it was her.
Of course, the other man's face was also clear. It was Ryan.
The photos went viral in a few seconds. From netizens to gossipmongers, everyone commented and
shared the pictures.
Kevin's jaw ticked as he stared at the photos in his phone, his fingers tightened around the gadget.
Standing beside him, the assistant lowered his head. He tried to become a non-existent being lest he
become the outlet for his boss' wrath but he couldn't help but feel pity for him. He never expected that
the CEO would be cheated on.
The assistant knew the man in the photo was Ryan.
He had started from scratch and although he had his own company, he couldn't be compared with
Kevin in terms of appearance and the family background.
He questioned Anne's taste. 'Why Ryan of all people?' he thought to himself.
Kevin exhaled and closed the app. He dawdled for a while before calling Anne.
Anne was not oblivious of the scandal. She chewed on her bottom lip as she thought how she should
tell this to Kevin when her phone rang. Dread settled in her gut. Kevin must have seen the photos
which was why he was calling her.
Even though she knew Kevin wouldn't misunderstand but she couldn't help but feel ashamed of the
pictures.
Her hands hovered over the answer button before she pressed it. Now was not the time to hide her
face. They needed to find a solution to stop the photos from spreading any further.
"Kevin," she mumbled.
The assistant perked up, straining his ears and preparing himself subtly for the verbal showdown that
he knew was bound to happen. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
However, worry niggled at the back of his mind. Since he was inside the office and was clearly able to
witness the CEO dealing with his personal affair, it was highly likely that his boss might take away his
job.
Should he silently just leave the office? No, if he did that then CEO would get even more furious and
fire him for simply leaving the office without his permission.
So the assistant resigned himself to his fate and stood there silently, listening to his boss' conversation
with his wife. However, he was surprised that the verbal war he expected did not happen.
As soon as Anne answered the call, Kevin anxiously said, "Anne, I think you know by now what has
happened. Don't worry, alright? I am with you and I trust you." He hoped that his reassurance would
ease his wife's anxiety.
It was impossible now to take the photos down from the Internet since they had been reposted and
shared so many times. Kevin clenched his teeth.
He knew the truth so he wouldn't blame Anne. If there was anyone to blame, it should be his mother,
Selma.
However, Selma was his biological mother and she had admitted her mistake. Therefore, he couldn't
channel his anger towards her either. He clenched his teeth.
Now, it was inevitable that he had become a man who was cheated by his wife in the public's eyes.
On the other hand, the assistant widened his eyes and looked at Kevin in disbelief. His boss, who had
been cheated on, was still comforting his wife.
'Oh my God! Am I hearing correctly? He is...comforting his wife instead of shouting at her? How could
this happen?' the assistant thought.
On the other end of the line, Anne sighed deeply. She replied wistfully, "When the laptop was stolen, I
had a bad feeling that something would happen sooner or later. Now, it has really happened." She
exhaled shakily.
"Anne, shut down the computer and put your phone on silent mode. Take the children to the Fu
Family's Villa immediately," Kevin said worriedly. He added, "The paparazzi will come to our house
soon. It's safer to stay at the Fu Family's Villa."
Kevin was suggesting this because he knew that Anne and their children would be safe there since
there were so many servants and maids in the Fu Family who could protect them.
"Mom called me a while ago. I have already sent Eddy and Sally there. I just need to pack some things
and then I will leave as well. Don't worry too much about me and concentrate on your work," she said in
a reassuring tone.
Having assured his wife, Kevin turned off his phone to silent mode.
In the photos, Ryan, whose upper body was naked, held Anne tightly. His gaze was filled with
tenderness.
With her eyes closed and her hair covering her forehead, her wound wasn't visible to anyone who
might look at the photo. Her face looked pitiful and pale.
'How desperate was Anne at that time?' Kevin couldn't help but wonder.
The assistant gaped at his boss. How could a man remain so calm and level-headed after being
cheated on?
His respect and admiration for the CEO increased instantly. He looked at him with utmost reverence.
"Is there something wrong with my face?" Suddenly, Kevin asked in an irritated tone, looking perturbed.
His harsh tone pulled the assistant out of his thoughts. His eyes widened before he hurriedly lowered
his gaze. He did not dare to utter a single word.
He braced himself for a round of yelling from him but Kevin surprised him by calling Ryan instead.
At that time, Anne was compelled to hurt herself in order to save her reputation and her children's. That
alone showed her love for her family
