Chapter 157

    Anya was clearly extremely cautious of Evan. She brushed her teeth and cleaned up hastily.


    Then, she changed into a fresh set of clothes, grabbed the expensive dress that was worth a hundred


    grand and made for


    the door.


    Ellie caught her as she emerged from the kitchen. Her aunt had a bowl of congee in her hands. She


    seemed surprised that Anya was heading out so early in the morning on a weekend. “You don’t have


    work today, do you? Why are you heading out so early in the morning?”


    “I have something to attend to. I’ll be back soon,” Anya said as she slipped into her sneakers. “Tilbe


    back to feed the kidster. They can have form milk for breakfast.”


    “Alright, I know what to do,” Ellie said with a nod. “See youter then.”


    “Yup.” Anya nodded lightly. She had to leave before her precious darlings woke up. She wouldn’t be


    able to slip away once they were awake and crying for their mother.


    Anya lifted the bag that held the exceedingly expensive dress that Evan had gotten her and made her


    way down to the bus


    stop.


    She boarded the bus and made her way towards Evan’s apartment.


    It took her approximately half an hour before she arrived at Evan’s fancy apartment.


    She stepped into the lobby and informed the security guards where she was headed. After the guards


    checked her ID, Anya was let through and allowed to ride the elevator to the penthouse.


    She stood in the middle of the elevator and sniffed lightly. There was a faint tinge of perfume in the air.


    During the entire ride, the young woman chanted quietly to herself. She was going to have breakfast


    and then she was going to leave Immediately after that.


    Anya repeated that to herself a few times before the elevator doors slid open.


    The young woman clutched the handle of her bag tightly before stepping out of the elevator.


    Someone let her into the apartment almost as soon as she knocked. It was the same housekeeper she


    had met thest


    time.


    The housekeeper smiled warmly at the young woman. “Ms. MacMin, you’re finally here. I brewed you


    some herbal tea thest time you were here. I’ve put them away in the freezer. I’ve been waiting for


    you to pick them up.”


    The woman stepped aside and let Anya into the house.


    “Thank you.” Herbal tea? Anya didn’t recall asking anyone to brew her herbal tea.


    It didn’t matter. She wasn’t going to ept anything from Evan.


    “Is Mr. Welton around? I’m here to have breakfast with him.” The string of words rushed out of Anya.


    The other woman seemed to know something. A soft smile graced her lips as she pointed at the


    walkway to the bedroom.


    “Mr. Welton’s waiting inside for you.”


    “Inside?” Anya frowned as she eyed the dim walkway. Unease sat in her gut. “I think I’ll wait for him


    here instead.”


    “Mr. Welton told me to inform you to head to the bedroom when you arrive.” The housekeeper wasn’t


    going to disobey the instructions that Evan had given her. In fact, she had to make sure they were


    followed to a tee. “Please don’t keep him waiting, Ms. MacMin.”


    The housekeeper turned away and headed back to the dining room after that. She had breakfast to


    prepare and she was worried that Anya might ask too many questions. Questions that she couldn’t


    answer.


    Anya s


    stared at the retreating back of the housekeeper and frowned deeply.


    She did have a few questions for her. But she had scurried off because she had other work to tend to. It


    wouldn’t be appropriate for Anya to run after the woman.


    She might simply find some other excuse, tell Anya that she needed to attend to something else, and


    find herself another hiding spot.


    Any idiot could tell that the housekeeper was avoiding her.


    Anya stood in the living room for a few minutes. Finally, she decided she should just get it over and


    done with. She steeled herself, then slowly made her way to the bedroom.


    She reached the bedroom. The door was shut. Anya knocked lightly. “Mr. Welton, it’s Anya, I’m here.”


    As soon as she said that, she heard Evan’s voice from the other side of the door. “Come in.”


    “Mr. Welton, I think I’ll wait outside for you.” There was no way Anya was stepping inside Evan’s


    bedroom.


    She stood at the door and waited.


    Evan was waiting in his bedroom as well. A minute passed. The young man realized that Anya wasn’t


    going toe in on her own free will.


    He stopped waiting and pulled the door open himself.


    The door to Evan’s bedroom slid open soundlessly.


    The young man stood at the doorway. He was dressed in a ck silk sleeping robe that hung on him


    loosely.


    Anya stared at him. Her eyes fell on the vast expanse of naked skin and instinctively traced the firm


    contours of the man’s muscles. Her ears burned. Her heart started racing. The young woman whirled


    around the next moment. “What would you like to have for breakfast, Mr. Welton? Like I said, I’m


    buying.”


    Evan watched as Anya tried to keep her eyes away from him. His lips quirked up into a ghost of a


    smile. He reached forward, ced his hands on Anya’s shoulders and tried to turn her around. Anya


    mistook his touch for another attempt at


    MS


    coping a feel. She jerked in rm and tried to step away.

    In her panic, the young woman tripped over her own feet, stumbled, and fell into Evan’s arms.


    Her attempt to escape Evan had ironically led her to walking right into Evan’s embrace.

    Evan stared at the woman in his arms. His eyes darkened. He wrapped his arms tightly around her and


    locked the woman in ce with a hand on the back of her head. Then, Evan leaned in and stared as


    panic and fear rippled across Anya’s eyes. His voice was low and husky. “That’s enthusiastic. Still


    gonna pretend that you’re not interested?”


    “What a coincidence. I’m really interested right now. Are you up for a round in the bedroom?”


    What Evan was suggesting was as in as day.


    nya flushed with embarrassment instantly.


    Anya


    It wasn’t intentional. She had tripped!


    Besides, she wasn’t interested in having sex with the man in broad daylight!
