When the skies were gradually getting darker, the MacMin family mansion’s living room lights lit up.


    When Sydney returned home and before she could even sit on the couch, Melissa poured a ss of


    fruit juice for her as she spoke in a loving tone, “Hey darling, are you tired? Come over and have some


    fruit juice.”


    Sydney epted the fruit juice and took a sip before unknowingly ncing at the man’s picture on the


    table. She frowned and thought to herself, “Isn’t that man Lance Xavier?”


    Could her grandmother have the entire thing nned out for Anya already? Sydney immediately


    nced towards her grandmother that was drinking tea on the couch. She ced her ss of fruit juice


    down then ran over to her grandmother as she said, “Is that the picture of the man you arranged for


    Anya, grandma?”


    The olddy gave her a wide smile as she patted her hair. She then replied in a sinister tone, “Of


    course. Look, isn’t she extremely arrogant and is quite disrespectful to her elders? She should feel


    what it’s like to be tortured by someone else.”


    ‘So, it seems that it’s real?‘


    If Anya was to marry Lance, Anya would never be able to snatch Evan away from her ever again.


    Sydney’s eyes began to glimmer brightly when she thought about that. She was in an extremely


    delightful mood as she cracked an extremely huge smile. She said, “When will she be marrying Lance


    then, grandma?” She wanted nothing more than to have Anya marry that cripple Lance immediately.


    She had even heard that the Xavier family had very strict rules. Any minor offences would be punished.


    Would Anya be tortured by the Xavier family everyday if she was to get married into the family?


    The more Sydney thought about it, the more excited she became. She absolutely loved to see Anya


    being tortured severely. Who told her to look more beautiful than her then?


    Who told her to get more attention from guys than her?


    “The day after tomorrow.” The olddy replied. She then continued in a loving tone, “The Xaviers told


    me yesterday that Anya and Lance would be able to get their marriage license the day after tomorrow


    from the civil affairs department.”


    The day after tomorrow would be quite fast but what if Anya refused?


    Sydney told her grandmother in a worried tone, “Grandma, would Anya even agree though? I really


    hope that she would marry him immediately or else she would snatch my Evan away from me.”


    “Oh grandma, you don’t wish to see that woman who cursed you to snatch away such a capable and


    wealthy man from us,


    right?”


    “Don’t worry, I have a way to make her agree to everything. The old man replied. It seemed that she


    had always been quite confident in doing things herself, or else, she would not trick Anya back home.


    “What would that be then?” Sydney asked as she was curious. She was staring at the olddy while


    blinking her huge eyes.


    However, before the olddy could answer, Melissa replied in a simr loving tone, “Oh Sydney, you’ll


    see when the timees. You don’t have to worry about this, just leave this matter to your


    grandmother and I.”


    13:34


    Sydney simply replied, “Okay.”


    “Why don’t you go ahead and take a shower first, darling? We’ll have dinner soon.” Melissa continued.


    Sydney nodded and went upstairs to take a shower in a delightful mood.


    Anya on the other hand was starting to wake up after being unconscious in the basement for an hour.


    When she woke up, she continued to pry that board open while ignoring her dazed state.


    If she w


    able to escape then, she would no doubt inform the authorities about it.


    She did not want to show them mercy anymore.


    They had never once treated her as part of their family anyway, so she had no reason to show them


    mercy as well.

    Anya pushed past her headache after losing conscious as she continued prying the board open with


    her nails.


    She continued even after her fingers were bleeding as she had to get out.


    While Anya was trying to save herself, Evan arrived at the MacMin family mansion. This was the first


    time he came over using his status to look for Anya.


    This basically meant that he was officially announcing to the world that Anya was his woma
