Desires Die Hard

After Sydney left, Anya looked solemnly at the entrance to the manor. So, this party was prepared for Evan. Anya was hoping that the Weltons would find him a girlfriend soon in hopes that she could be let off the hook..

The feeling that went through Anya’s mind was just a sigh of relief. There were no signs of jealousy or dismay at all. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

She continued waiting for the man under the shade. After about five minutes, Evan walked out of the gate, looking relaxed. Anya took a quick glance and looked away soon after. Evan walked up to her and said, “Let’s go. I’ll send you back.”

Anya pursed her lips. She wanted to reject the offer. But she felt that it would be redundant to say anything at all, so she obediently got into his Bentley.

In the car, Anya could smell a faint whiff of alcohol from the man. It was not too strong, but she could tell that he had a couple of glasses at the party. Perhaps he had a few drinks with one of the shortlisted women that the Weltons had arranged for him?

Anya leaned against the car door as her mind wondered. She was so engrossed that she did not notice Evan had been looking at her and that he had moved closer to Anya. “Penny for your thoughts? What were you thinking about?” He asked in a soft yet deep voice, with a hint of alcohol in his breath.

“Nothing at all.” Anya came back to reality. When she turned around, she was not expecting to see Evan’s attractive face to be so close to hers. It made her breath stop as she edged towards the car door.

Seeing her reaction, Evan did not force himself on her like the previous time and he pulled back instead. He gently closed his eyes and leaned into the soft leather seat and said, “I’ll give you three days to reconsider our relationship, and also to come back to JK.”

Three days? So soon?

Anya paused and frowned slightly. She refused to think about the matter again but knowing Evan, he would not take no for an answer if he wanted something badly.

Anya decided to change to a more lighthearted subject. “Mr. Welton, I heard that this party is organized to find you a girlfriend? If you do find one, it would mean that you would not need me anymore, right?”

Evan opened his eyes upon hearing this. He scoffed, “Where did you hear this from? Was it your good friend Cindy who told you about this?”

Cindy would not know about gossip for sure. Anya peered at him over her shoulder. “Mr. Welton, just tell me the answer, Is it true? If it is, I would not need to consider about having a relationship with you.”

This woman could really think of every little excuse to avoid being together with him. Evan smirked and said in an alluring tone, “Then let me tell you. Besides you, I will not and never will be with other ladies.”

At the very least, he would not have other flings if they were dating.

“Mr. Welton, you got me wrong. I was asking if the party was for you to meet other potential ladies.” Anya was shy about his comments as she did not expect the reply. She was not going to make Evan promise that he would not have flings.

“It is not.” Evan said plainly. “You don’t have to think of how to make me lose interest in you. I only want you now.”

These words sounded seductive and inviting.

The tips of Anya’s ears turned bright red and her heart skipped a beat. She pursed her lips and did not question further. But from his tonality, it seemed like there was no escape for her. So, no matter what, the conclusion would be the same.

Evan took her silence as her agreement to reconsider their relationship. He did not say anything more. The two of them sat in silence as the car drove through the city

The car came to a halt as they reached Oak View Mansion. Anya alighted hurriedly. Evan turned and looked at her. “Don’t forget about the DNA samples, Ms. MacMillan.”

Anya turned around hastily and briefly acknowledged him before she left.

Evan sat in the car as he watched Anya walk into the compound. He called the previous lawyer and asked him to prepare documents for another DNA sample test. However, for the samples this time, he did not intend to use a local facility, but he

wanted it to be sent to Hong Kong for authentication.
