Desires Die Hard

Evan was in a meeting in a conference room on the top floor of the building when Jake came hurrying over. He could only ask Evan’s assistant to pass a message before he waited outside the meeting room anxiously for Evan to finish his

meeting.

Jake was completely caught by surprise and puzzled by Anya’s resignation. She suddenly left a resignation letter on his table and left without warning. Also, she was completely uncontactable by phone now.

Jake even suspected something bad must have happened to Anya. Otherwise, she would not have quit out of the blue.

Jake sent Anya text messages repeatedly as he waited for Evan to finish his meeting.

[Anya, where are you? I am very concerned about you. Can you call me back?]

[Anya, no matter what kind of problems you are facing, even if you have to quit, you can tell me about it. Did you have to suddenly throw in your resignation letter and leave without a word? You made a lot of commission last month. Can’t you consider staying? Also, your probation period is over, so you are about to get confirmed.]

[Anya, I am very worried about you. We are supposed to go to Paris for a project next month. Can you call me back after receiving my text messages? I am worried.]

By the time Jake sent Anya a string of messages, she had already arrived home at Oak View Mansion and was playing with the children.

Anya felt awkward about the situation. She wanted to reply to Jake’s text messages and talk about her resignation, but she was worried that Evan would not let her leave JK Couture if she quit through normal procedures.

Would she ever be able to leave the company if Evan found out?

Despite the complicated emotions running through Anya, she suppressed her urge to reply to Jake’s text messages. She knew Jake was interested in her and that he was a good man, but there was no other way she could leave the company.

Later in the afternoon, she planned on going to get her SIM card changed and stop using her current number.

Anya went into a daze staring at her phone screen. Ellie asked in concern when she saw Anya’s strange behavior, “Anya, what’s wrong? Did something go wrong with your resignation?”

“Nope.” Anya gathered her thoughts and deleted Jake’s text messages. She shook her head as she smiled and denied, “Everything went smoothly with my resignation, I will get my SIM card changed in the afternoon so that people in the company can’t reach me.”

Ellie felt it was a good idea. It was kind of risky for Anya to keep using her old phone number. After all, Evan was an extremely powerful and well–connected man, so it was better to cut ties and change her phone number altogether. “Uh huh. Sure thing. I will make sure the children take their nap in the afternoon.”

Anya nodded in agreement. “Uh huh.”

At 10:30 am, Evan finally finished his meeting and the company’s higher management left the conference room one after another. After all the higher management came out of the conference room, Hayden came out and said to Jake who was walling outside, “Mr. Hanson, Mr. Wellon in ready to see you.”

Jake nodded nervously the moment he heard Hayden calling him and replied, “Thanks.”

“This way, please” Hayden led Jake into the huge conference room. The man was sitting at the center of the room dressed In a white shirt and black pants as he played with a custom made black pen.

“Mr. Welton, Ms. McMillan from JK Couture suddenly resigned today…” said Jake with his voice quavering.“… She probably can’t go to Parin.”

Jake Instinctively clenched his fists slightly as he spoke with his voice trembling. “Mr. Welton, I don’t know either. I couldn’t reach her on the phone.”

“Got it. You may go back to work.” Evan looked at the black pen in his hand before he glanced at Jake. He knew Jake was Interested in Anyn.

Hence, Evan would never let Jake handle the matter.

Jake was hoping Evan could help look for Anya, However, this was unrealistic considering what a busy man Evan was as the CEO of the company. After all, Anya was just a junior employee at JK Couture.

Jake felt it was an unreasonable request, so he did not bring it up to Evan at all. Instead, Jake simply reported Anya’s resignation to Evan..
