Anya, Cindy, and Jamie chatted at the vi for about 30 minutes before leaving.


    Jamie wanted to send Anya home, but Anya turned down his offer. He did not insist when she took a


    ride from Cindy.


    On the way back, Cindy started promoting Jamie. “My cousin is a really great guy. Why don’t you give


    him a chance?”


    Anya felt a headacheing on. She did not want to date anyone, so she simply smiled and said, “Do


    you think it’s possible? Considering my low status and how good your cousin is, do you think it’s


    possible between us?”


    “Why not? You are going to be an incredible fashion designer one day. How can you be so hard on


    yourself? There is no need for this low self–esteem.” Cindy felt she must have low self–esteem owing


    to the things that transpired with the MacMin family.


    Anya sighed. She did not have an inferiorityplex, it was simply the truth.


    “You know about the twins. Also, I can’t go anywhere without them.” Anya looked at the scenery


    outside the car window as she spoke gently, “No one is willing to ept a single mother with two kids


    like me.”


    “Also, don’t tell Jamie about my kids. Even if he finds out, I will tell him they are my cousin’s children. I


    don’t want to attract any trouble. As for Evan, he insists on doing another paternity test.” The moment


    Anya finished her sentence, she veered her eyes and looked at Cindy.


    Cindy knew what she meant. “Don’t worry. I won’t tell him about the kids. He will never know about


    this.”


    “Thanks.


    “My pleasure.” Cindy was more than happy to help.


    As long as they were friends, she would help Anya till the day they died.


    Anya nodded.


    The two of them dropped the subject and started chatting about something else. Before long, they


    arrived at Ellie’s apartment.


    Cindy parked her Maserati to let Anya off the car. Anya bent over and said to Cindy as she got off,


    “Cindy, take care and drive safely. After I am done moving, I will buy you dinner.


    “Sounds like a n.” Cindy nodded. “I can stay over to hang out with my foster son and daughter after


    you move into Oak View Mansion.”


    Anya smiled. “Then it’s settled. After I move over, you must move in as well.”


    Cindy gestured okay. “No problem.”


    “Drive safe,” said Anya once more as she waved goodbye.

    Cindy turned the car around and headed to her apartment.


    The moment Cindy left, Anya stood where she was for a while before she headed back to Ellie’s


    apartment. A few stepster, she spotted a ck Bentley parked downstairs and this stunning man


    standing in front of the car smoking.


    Streemps beside the apartment scattered down over his well–chiseled features as he smoked


    making him absolutely


    gorgeous.


    Anya went into a daze as she looked at him from a distance. Her eyelids twitched uneasily.


    What was he doing here?


    Anya looked at him for some time before she finally walked over. Since he was already standing there,


    there was no escaping him…


    The man finally spotted her when she came closer.


    He flicked the cigarette in his hand and said huskily, “Where have you gone gallivanting?”


    “Mr. Welton, since it is after office hours, I really don’t think my whereabouts are any of your business,”


    said Anya angrily.


    Evan pursed his lips before he said confidently, “You are my woman. Why can’t I ask?”


    Anya went speechless.


    When did she be his woman?


    She did not recall agreeing to this.


    “Mr. Welton, you shouldn’t be cracking such jokes in the middle of the night. I am just an insignificant


    employee, how could I be your woman? If you are not here to talk about work, I am heading back to my


    apartment. Good night,” said Anya before


    she left.


    Evan reached his hand out to pull her against his powerful chest as he spoke huskily in a domineering


    tone, “I see you are getting more daring by the day. It seems it is about time I teach you a lesson.”

    ya could smell his intense sexy scent as his body rubbed against her while he spoke vaguely with her


    in his arms. His body felt soft and strong.


    The situation felt dangerous. Her ears instinctively turned red as she bit her lip and retorted. “Stop


    acting like a hooligan, Mr. Welton!”


    A hooligan? Evan looked at her coolly as he said calmly. “If I were a hooligan, I would have pinned you


    down on my bed already.”


    Anya went speechless..


    Anya gritted her teeth as she struggled and said angrily, “Mr. Welton, this is my home!”


    Evan could tell she was genuinely annoyed, so he stopped holding her. He let her go and retrieved a


    big bag of toys from

    inside the car. “These are for Nate and Dora.”


    Anya nced at him and refused to take the gifts. “Mr. Welton, thanks but we have plenty of toys at


    home.”


    “Are you trying to make me bring it upstairs?” said Evan deeply.


    Anya’s face stiffened. She hesitated briefly before taking the bag of toys from Evan and said stiffly, “Mr.


    Welton, thanks for being so good to my cousin’s children.” The moment she finished her sentence, she


    turned and strode quickly into the


    apartment.


    Evan did not go into the apartment with her. Instead, he leaned against the car as he watched her


    leave from behind.


    It suddenly dawned on him that he was unknowingly bing increasingly indulgent and tolerant


    towards the woman.


    Even though it was more than just wanting to sleep with her, he knew it was impossible for him to take


    the rtionship seriously.


    Evan looked at her for some time before throwing the cigarette on the ground and putting it out before


    he turned to get


    onto the car.
