    Cindy’s eye–catching Maserati was parked at a nearby street from Welton Group.


    Anya hastily rushed over with her bag and entered the car. However, the Instant she entered, Cindy


    could immediately tell the bag Anya was holding was a brand new limited edition Chanel bag. She


    immediately said, “How did you even get this model? This is brand new and only three units was made


    avable on their website. They were all bought out. I didn’t expect you’re able to buy one.”


    Cindy was a little shocked.


    Anya handed the bag over to her as she closed the door. She chuckled helplessly and said, “Do you


    think someone with my pay will be able to buy this though?”


    “It has to be really expensive now, right?”


    “Not really. It’s only about five–hundred thousand dors.” Cindy replied sarcastically. As Cindy realized


    that it would be impossible for Anya to afford it with her pay, she asked, “Who gave it to you?”


    “Evan.” Anya replied. She felt extremelyplicated as she continued, “I really need to resign now.”


    It seemed that the more relentless Evan was in pursuing after her, the more afraid she felt. She was


    worried that her children might actually be snatched away by him. She would actually be driven insane.


    “I understand.” Cindy replied as she patted Anya’s head. She thenforted her, “It’s entirely up to you


    as to when you’d be resigning from your job. My doors will always be opened for you.”


    Anya nodded and replied, “Thank you.”


    “Oh, don’t mention it. Oh, have you finished packing already?” Cindy asked as she returned the bag to


    her. She started her car and said, “If you have, just move into my ce then.”


    Anya felt bad when she brought that up. She replied, “I am done but I just feel bad for moving into your


    ce, you know.”


    “What is there to feel bad for?” Cindy chuckled. She continued, “My ce will be livelier when you


    move in.”


    “Stop overthinking it. Just focus on resigning from your job for now.” Cindy continued.


    Anya nodded as she would finish Mdm. Welton’s draft in the next three days.


    She would be able to leave then. The truth was, things were progressing pretty quickly. Anya decided


    to stop thinking about it. She wanted to take care of the matter at hand at the moment first.


    When she thought about her having to meet her grandmotherter, she lost any good mood she had


    left. However, since


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    this was for her mother, all she could do was meet them.


    It did not take long for them to arrive at the mansion Anya once lived.


    Ever since she had been exiled, she had not returned in about two years.


    As she stared at the slightly worn out double–story mansion, she felt somewhat surreal and nostalgic. It


    seemed that as much as she hated this ce, it was still somewhere she grew up in.

    She would be lying if she was not sentimental about it but it seemed that the only emotion she felt at


    the moment was disgust.

    After staring at it for a brief moment, she withdrew her gaze and told Cindy, “Just wait here for me. If


    they don’t talk about my mom, I’ll get out immediately.”


    Cindy understood and gestured an okay sign to her as she waited for Anya in the car.


    Anya entered the mansion to meet her grandmother herself.


    Only a singlemp was lit as she entered the slightly dimmed living room. It seemed that the olddy


    was wearing a long white blouse while she waited for her on the couch at the very center of the living


    room. She looked very serious.


    Her


    er step–mother, Melissa and her father Cornelius was sitting beside her grandmother.


    Two burly looking man was sitting on both ends of the couch. It seemed that the men were there to


    capture Anya and lock her upter. They were factory workers her grandmother specially appointed for


    this task.


    The olddy took a sinister nce out the door before shifting her gaze to a picture on the ss table.


    The picture showed a young fat man dressed in red T–shirt.


    The crippled man that Anya would be marrying, Lance Xavier,


    He was thirty that year and due to him being a cripple, he was unable to move and would require


    hospice care all year. Although the Xavier family was rich, no model would want to marry him.


    The olddy wanted to marry Anya off with him to eliminate Anya for being Sydney’spetition.


    Moreover, this would allow them to get revenge on her. This would allow that little brat, Anya to know


    that there were rules in the MacMin family.


    Since she dared to ssh a cup of cold water on her in front of so many people back then, she would


    force her to marry the Xavier’s to feel what was it like to be tortured!
