Anya continued to stand at the balcony and looked down at the passing vehicles on the busy street. She had gradually calmed down from the panic earlier on. Who could be the one who framed her this time? It could not be the manufacturing department’s seamstresses. Was it someone from the company? She had zero evidence and leads that could disclose who the culprit was.
Anya pondered for a while more before she decided it was about tto make her way down to wait for Mr. Hanson. She recollected her thoughts and walked into the living area.
Ellie noticed that Anya looked troubled so she thought Anya was brooding over Evan’s visit the night before. Ellie brought the kids out of the room and asked, “Anya, is everything ok? Are you bothered by the incident with Evan?”
“No.” Anya forced a smile as she did not want Ellie to worry about her. “Aunt Ellie, I am fine. I am going to quit soon. We’ll be moving out of this place as well. Mr. Welton is after all the CEO. Surely, he wouldn’t keep pestering me, right?”
Ellie agreed to Anya’s point. “Then go wash up and chave your breakfast.”
“Okay.” Anya nodded and gently caressed the twin’s cheeks before going to the toilet to wash up quickly.
She settled down to breastfeed the twins first before feeding herself. She was running low on milk supply hence she only latched the kids on once every day. They would have to wean off completely in a couple of days.

patted her back.
After she was done with feeding the twins, she gobbled a few mouthfuls of oatmeal and went downstairs.
While she was downstairs, Evan sent a text message. [I’ll cpick you up at 8am.]
Evan was not angry with Anya for the slap she gave him yesterday. Actually, he felt that he had been patient with Anya recently. One possible reason could be that he hardly met a woman who was as intriguing. To that matter, that one slap was no big deal.
Anya read the message but did not want to reply and just ignored it. She walked to the apartment’s gate for Jake’s arrival.
She waited for about fifteen minutes and it was soon to be 8am before Mr. Hanson reached in his Audi.
The car gradually stopped before her. Jake rolled down his car window and asked Anya, Have you eaten your breakfast yet?”
“Yes, I have eaten.” Anya replied hastily.
“I haven’t. Is there anywhere around here that sells breakfast?” Jake asked as he alighted from his car.
“The supermarket nearby sells ssandwiches. There are not many options around here.” Anya showed him the way.
They walked on the pavement side by side. Jake turned and looked at her. He figured she was still worried about the incident from the look on her face and tried to comfort her. “I believe in you. Don’t think about it too much. All will be clear

after the investigation.”
Anya nodded her head in silence. She could not think of any solution to the issue at the moment so she could only ask Jake for help.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey reached the supermarket and Jake bought a sandwich and a small carton of milk. They returned to where the car was parked.
They reached the car just in tas Evan’s black Bentley drove in. The luxurious car had garnered sattention from by passers as it was not a common sighting in the old vicinity. Just who was the one who owned such expensive car? People gathered around to check out but Evan could not care more as his attention was fully on Anya who was about to get into
the Audi in front of him.
Jake started up the engine and drove away.
Evan said with a cold tone, “Follow the car in front.”
He could not tell that Anya was actually quite popular among men. Seemed like… his competition for the woman he loved would be high.
The two cars drove in the city one after another until they reached the underground parking area at the Welton Group.
Anya only noticed Evan when she alighted.
Evan was wearing his usual black shirt with black suit pants and a black mechanical watch worth at least a million on his wrist. He had also alighted and stood poised beside the Bentley.
The aura coming from the CEO was overbearing, like he would swallow Anya alive. Even Anya who was standing three meters away could feel it.
The agenda for
for Anya was to discuss about Lola’s engagement details being leaked. She couldn’t care more about Evan now. She turned to leave with Jake to talk about the next steps back at JK Couture.
