“Aw Anya, your cousin’s children are really adorable.” Jake replied. It seemed that Jake truly adored
those children from the bottom of his heart. He could not help himself but to pat their adorable little
curly hair.
‘Those kids are too beautiful.
If they were to be an artist or a celebrity in the future, they would no doubt be liked by everyone.
“Yeah, they are extremely adorable indeed.” Anya replied. She was afraid that her children might call
her mother if he was to continue asking.
She bit her lips and told him to leave, “Hey…Mr. Hanson, it’s gettingte.”
“Isn’t it still early?” Jake asked. He knew that she might be feeling shy since her aunt was there.
He was not bothered by it, so he continued, “Oh, that’s right, I’ve taken care of the incident that you
wanted me to contact the authorities for. Police officers wille over to get your statementter.”
Before Anya could say anything after he was done saying that, her aunt waspletely confused as
she asked, “What happened, Mr. Hanson? Why must you contact the authorities?”
‘Was she not just having a simple upset stomach?”
‘Did something happen to her at her office? Why didn’t Anya not tell me?
“Oh aunty, the thing is… Jake wanted to answer but he was cut off by Anya as she said, “Oh it’s
nothing Ellie, it’s just work rted stuff. It involves some private matters, so we had to contact the
authorities. The client wants me to be responsible for it but it’s nothing. It’ll be fine after a statement is
taken.”
“Oh, work rted matters?” Her aunt replied as she felt relieved. Everything would be fine as long as it
did not involve her
Anya.
Anya nodded and after some thought, she realize that Jake would no doubt be a ticking time bomb if he
was to continue to remain there. She told Jake, “Hey Mr. Hanson, let’s talk about work outside?”
“Can you get out of bed?” Jake asked. He was no fool as he knew that she did not want her family to
know about the incident since she cut him off earlier.
“I can. I’m pretty much fine now.” Anya replied as she got out of bed. She then told her aunt while
getting out of bed, “Hey aunty, just y with the kids here for a while. I need to talk about work with Mr.
Hanson outside.”
“Are you sure you’re okay?” Her aunt asked. She did not mind Anya to talk about work, she was just
worried about about
her.
“I’m fine. Look at me, I can still walk. Anya replied as she put her slippers on and walked a couple of
steps around the room. However, although she seemed to be fine on the surface, she was actually
feeling quite weak.
The doctors had to perform a gastricvage on her since she was suffering from water poisoning. Her
stomach was still
A
feeling a little ufortable then. Her body felt weak too.
However, she was still able to keep herselfposed.
After her aunt noticed that she was indeed alright, she nodded and allowed her to get out.
After Anya and Jake arrived at the hallway outside of her room, they sat down on a random bench
against the wall.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Hanson….I just didn’t want my aunt to worry.” Anya whispered in a soft tone after
scanning the area and making sure that there was no one present.

“I understand.” Jake replied while staring at her with a gentle gaze. It seemed that Anya still looked
incredibly beautiful even when she was ill. He then said, “I’m so sorry that I wasn’t aware of the
surrounding.”
“It’s fine.” Anya shook her head and asked, “When will the cops arrive, Mr. Hanson?”
“They should arrive soon. Should I apany you while you wait for their arrival?” Jake asked as he
looked at the time on his wristwatch. He then continued to say, “The truth is, it’s nothing major. All they
wanted to ask is the details about the water that you drank,”
“They’ve taken thepany’s surveince footage too.”
“Alright.” Anya replied as she nodded and waited for the police officers to arrive with Jake.
In Welton Group’s president’s office, Evan got lost in staring at Anya’s picture when he received it from
Hayden.
The youngdy in the picture. She looked pale but her illness still was unable to hide her natural pure
beauty. Any men who had seen her would want to appreciate her well.
Evan’s gaze dimmed as he silently stared at her picture. If she was willing to be with him, she would
never have to endure such harm from people.
