Desires Die Hard

But Anya must go, so she put down Eudora and said to Ellie, “Ellie, I have to go out now.”

“It’s so late. What are you going to do?” Ellie asked with concern. She didn’t doubt Anya but thought it was not safe to go out at night.

“Nothing. I have an interview for a new company,” Anya said as she stood up, “The director wants to see me. Well, the director is a girl. Ellie, don’t worry.” Anya lied with guilt. As she said, her voice lowered.

Ellie always believed Anya, so she did not doubt that Anya was going to have an interview at night.

Then she said, “Be careful. Come back early after the interview.”

Anya nodded and went to change her clothes on the second floor. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

But she did not want to wear make–up. It was fine to be slovenly in front of Evan.

So Anya did not choose her beautiful dresses. She picked up a white T–shirt and a pair of light–brown pants. Then she tied up her hair into a bun with a rubber band.

She wore no make–up.

To become a real sloven, she messed up her hair after tying it up.

Ellie felt strange to see her appearance when Anya went downstairs. “Why don’t you wear make–up? Your hair is such a

mess.”

Anya went to the entryway to change her shoes. “I will tie it up later. These clothes are nice. I’m applying as a designer. My appearance doesn’t matter. It’s enough that I feel comfortable.”

“Well, that’s right.” Ellie thought for a few seconds and agreed with Anya’s words. It was not safe to be well–dressed at night even though the director was a girl.

Then Ellie just let her be.

Anya pulled open the door and went out. But her two babies became anxious. They were afraid when Anya was not around, so Nathaniel and Eudora hugged her leg to stop her from leaving.

And Eudora even began to shed tears. She shook her head and cried pitifully, which broke Anya’s heart. Anya didn’t want to leave either if Evan didn’t call her

Nathaniel also hugged Anya’s leg and didn’t want her to leave. “Mommy, don’t go.”

But Anya had to go, so she squatted to comfort her two babies. “I’ll be right back and then I will sing a lullaby to you, okay?”

Eudora shook her head. She wanted to go with Anya.

So did Nathaniel.

Anya had to soften them up with great patience. She could finally leave when Nathaniel and Eudora let go of her.

Walking out of the mansion, Anya felt the cool wind blowing to her face. It felt good but Anya could not be relaxed at all. She began to worry after leaving home.

What if something happened when she went to see Even?

Anya was at sixes and sevens along the way. Even though she promised to be Evan’s girlfriend, she could not put her guard down and have a relationship with him.

With Anya’s mind wandering, she found the No. 2 Mansion that Evan had told her. This mansion was more luxurious and bigger than that of Cindy’s. Anya stood at the door for a while and rang the doorbell after a moment of hesitation.

Quickly, the retro wood door was opened by the servant who did housework and cooked meals in Evan’s home. The servant was surprised when she saw the slovenly Anya. Then she recognized Anya and said with a smile, “Ms. MacMillan, welcome. Mr. Wolton in drunk, and he is sitting on the sofa,”

Anya replied and then followed her to the bright and luxurious living room. Then Anya saw Evan leaning against the sofal and rubbing his temples.

The blazing light from the crystal ceiling lamp cast on the handsome man as if he was also shining.

Anya’s heart skipped a beat.

Looking at Evan, Anya pursed her lips and then walked towards him.
