The sun was shining brightly the following day. She had a dreamless night.


    It was already eight in the morning by the time Anya woke up. It seemed that she had overslept a little.


    She hastily freshened up in the washroom, changed into her clothes and was getting ready to head to


    work.


    However, the instant she walked out from the room, she was greeted by the mald. She had a huge


    smile on her face and was holding a bowl of herbal soup in her hands as she said, “Oh Ms. MacMin,


    you’re awake?”


    “Yeah.” Anya replied in a bashful tone as she felt shy to look at Evan’s maid.


    She felt slightly embarrassed and wanted to leave.


    The maid could tell that she was in a hurry, so she immediately said, “Hey Ms. MacMin, why don’t


    you leave after you finish this bowl of herbal soup?”


    “No, there’s no need for that. I need to head to the office now.” Anya refused as she reached out and


    frantically waved at


    her.


    However, the maid continued to say, “But Mr. Welton told me that you must drink it.”


    “Where…is he though?” Anya asked as she finally realized that he was nowhere to be seen after she


    woke up after the maid mentioned him.


    “Mr. Welton left very early in the morning.” The maid answered honestly.


    Anya felt relieved instantly as she simply replied, “Thank you, aunty.”


    “What are you thank me for? It’s my duty to take care of you, Ms. MacMin.” The maid replied. She


    was a great judge of character and since Evan was determined to making Anya stay, she must be


    different. She recalled the time when Anya passed out previously, Evan actually carried her back in his


    arms!


    The maid would never look down on her nor would she treat her poorly.


    “Can I leave now then?” Anya asked as she was afraid that Evan might have told the maid that she


    was not allowed to go to work. If that was the case, she would be extremely furious about it.


    “You can.” The maid replied as she would not force her to stay. She then added, “But, can you leave


    after you finish this bowl of herbal soup, Ms. MacMin?”


    Anya took a nce at the bowl of herbal soup in the maid’s hand and hesitated for a moment before


    epting it. She did not want to waste anymore time, so she said, “Thanks.” She immediately chugged


    the bowl of herbal soup down after she thanked the maid.


    She returned the bowl to the maid after she chugged it down in a single gulp before leaving in a hurry.


    Anya was only able to fully rx and called a cab to JK Group when she exited his apartment and


    arriving at the main road.


    A


    After she clocked in to work when she arrived, she had no intentions of dying further as she rushed


    to finish Mdm. Welton’s coat design


    She would be able to resign after she finished the design.


    She spent the entire morning working on the design. However, when lunchtime approached, her


    cowardly father, Comelius, who had never once cared about her, suddenly called her.


    This was the first time in two years ever since the incident with Evan that Anya had received a call from


    him.


    Anya was slightly surprised but she was also extremely disgusted and disappointed by it. She had


    already disowned such a cold–blooded father like him.


    Thus, she did not pick up when Cornelius called. However, he kept calling and it took him five attempts


    before Anya was willing to pick up. She responded in a very hostile tone, “What do you want?”


    “It’s been so long. Anya. How are things recently?” Cornelius pretended to care about his daughter.


    However, Anya was unwilling to reconnect with him because he had long since been unworthy of such


    privilege. Thus, she said, “Speak your mind. If you don’t have anything to say, I’m actually really busy.”


    “I actually do have something to talk to you about.” Cornelius could tell that Anya was getting impatient,


    so he decided not to beat around the bush as he continued, “Come home and have dinner with us in


    the MacMin home. Your grandma has something to talk to you about.”


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.


    “I have nothing to say to her.” Anya replied. She would never go since her grandmother resented her


    this much and if she was to go, would she not be falling into her trap willingly?


    “Anya, she has been reflecting about you and your mother recently.” Cornelius replied. He knew she


    would never show up. so he continued, “She thought some things through


    so she wanted you toe home for dinner and talk about your mother’s inheritance.”


    The instant her mother’s inheritance was brought up, Anya would not refuse to show up then. After


    thinking about it for a moment, she said, “Alright. I’ll be there tonight.”


    “Alright.” Cornelius nodded before hanging up the call.


    The olddy that was sitting in front of him started cackling out loud sinisterly as she said, “When she


    comes home, I’ll marry her off to that crippled boy from the


    Xavier family.”


    Cornelius had no opinion on this matter.


    Although the boy from the Xavier family was crippled, his family was rich. If she was to get married into


    his family, they would not treat her poorly, thus Cornelius thought that the arrangement was actually not


    a bad one.
