Sydney had not expected Anya to be undeterred in her advances on Evan. The desire to ruin her
stepsister’s pretty face burned inside Sydney. In fact, she wished fervently that the woman would
simply disappear from the face of the earth.
That would mean lesspetition for Evan’s attention.
But Anya was safe and unharmed while she had no idea whether her stepsister was currently
romantically involved with
Evan.
If they were, Sydney was sure that Anya would call Evan and tell her what Sydney had just done.
Anya hadn’t said anything about dating Evan though. She hadn’t threatened Sydney that she would tell
on her as well.
Did that mean that there wasn’t anything going on between Anya and Evan at all?
Zachary had seemed really confident when he had spoken to her though. Like he knew exactly what
was going on.

Sydney found herself stuck in a predicament. She didn’t know whom to believe. Who was telling her
the truth? lying to her?
She bit her lips and red at the elevator murderously. All this while, the gears in her head spun
furiously.
It didn’t matter if Anya and Evan weren’t dating now.

She was a thorn in her side. Anya couldn’t stay. Who knew what she was up to? She might be
conspiring secretly and plotting to steal Sydney’s inheritance.
Anya was the elder sister. They might not share the same mother, but they shared the same father. He
was the one who was of MacMin blood.
The more Sydney thought about it, the firmer her conviction grew. She couldn’t let this go on.
She collected herself, pressed the button to the elevator and returned to her office.
She was going to speak to Mdm. MacMin after she knocked off work today. The olddy would help
her deal with Anya.
Her grandmother adored her.
All she had to do was tell her grandmother what she wanted. The olddy would have it wrapped in a
bow and present it to her like a gift.
Meanwhile, at Starlight Entertainment Agency.
Anya was still trying to recover from the shock of having scalding water thrown at her face. It had been
a close call. It took some time for the young woman to collect herself. After she finally calmed down,
she headed into the agency, looking for L.
She had made up her mind. She was going to get L’s bridal gown and Mdm. Welton’s coat done.
Then, she was going to

clutched the draft to her chest tightly and took a deep breath. She walked up to the studio and knocked
lightly Anya ss door.

It didn’t take long before someone came and opened the door for her. It was a young woman dressed
in a uniform. She must be the receptionist
There was a look of wariness in the young woman’s eyes as she studied Anya. “Hi, may I ask who
you’re looking for? Do you have an appointment?”
“I’m a designer from JK Couture. I have an appointment with Ms. Mars. Please let her know that I’m
here,” Anya said politely.
The look of caution on the receptionist’s face vanished as soon as she heard that Anya was a designer
from JK Couture. In its ce was a warm smile. “You must be Ms. MacMin. Please step inside. Ms.
Mars is waiting for you.”
She hadn’t expected that Had L been waiting for her arrival?
Anya froze momentarily. A sheepish look flickered across her eyes. Her voice sounded slightly
subdued. “I’m sorry. I was caught in a jam. I hope I didn’t keep her waiting for too long.”
“Don’t worry about it. She doesn’t have anything lined up in the morning,” the receptionist said brightly.
She knew that Anya was an important guest and was especially friendly with the other woman.
Her friendliness helped. Anya stopped feeling so bad about having kept L waiting for her.
She hurried after the receptionist as they headed to the dressing room, where L was.
When they arrived at the dressing room, the receptionist pushed the door open. L was seated on the
couch, dressed in a long, flowing dress. She seemed to be waiting for Anya.
Anya stepped into the room immediately. “I’m sorry for keeping you waiting, Ms. Mars.”
L didn’t mind the wait at all. She looked up and smiled warmly at the young woman. “Come on, take
a seat. Then show me what you’ve got for me.”
“Of course.” Anya sat down on the couch and handed her draft to L. “The design’s inspired by the
recent trend of long flowing dresses that try to replicate the intery of light and water in a river. Take a
look, let me know if you want anything changed.”
L hummed softly before she began studying the draft.

It didn’t take long before L decided that she was in love with Anya’s design.
She loved the concept and how Anya had tried to put concept down on paper. It looked different from
the ordinary bridal gown that she hade across. It was perfectly exemplified her sartorial taste.

L was impressed and also secretly d that she had given Anya the chance to prove herself.
Otherwise, she might be missing a gorgeous bridal gown.
The young woman couldn’t seem to take her eyes off the draft. “Ms. MacMin, this looks great. I love
it. You can go ahead and get the dress made. I’ll be holding my engagement ceremony soon.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll put in overtime so that I can get the dress rendy in time,” Anya promised earnestly. The
young woman was delighted that L had noints about her design.
L nodded. “Thanks.”
“Well, if there’s nothing else, I’ll head back to work now.” Now that they had decided on the design of
L’s bridal gown, Anya had to speak to the factory so that the tallors could help her get the dress out
within the next two days.
As she rose to
her feet, L spoke again. “Anya, I’m going to hold a pro–wedding trip in a few days‘ time. Won’t you
join us?”
