Chapter 281
Evan did not continue to try reaching Anya on the phone after leaving the apartment. It was easy enough for him to find out where she had moved if he wanted to know, even if she refused to tell him. He was more concerned about the reason she moved. Was she trying to hide from him?
Or was it something else?
He had yet to find the tto conduct the paternity test again.
Evan reckoned the woman was trying to hide from him, so he could not help feeling annoyed. The more she tried to run from him, the more intrigued he became,
Evan could handle any woman on earth, including Anya.
Meanwhile, the doctor went through Eudora’s CT scan when it was ready and confirmed everything was fine before they left the hospital happily.
Eudora and Nathaniel had already fallen asleep by the tthey got home. Anya carried them to their room gently. Just as she was done tucking in the children, she received a text message from Cindy telling her she was staying over at her parents‘ place tonight.
After returning Cindy’s text with an acknowledgement, she went for a shower. She was exhausted from running around taking care of Eudora.

Anya woke up early to prepare the children’s meals before she headed to the office after a simple breakfast. After showing Mdm Welton’s the design today, she would submit her resignation letter.
She could stop working at Welton Group from now on.
Anya got to the office early and placed her resignation letter on Jake’s desk before picking up her design and bringing it to Mdm Welton at her villa.
Mdm Welton was expecting Anya this morning, so she especially told the help to prepare a hearty breakfast before she happily waited for Anya in the garden.
At around 9:00 am, Anya finally arrived at Mdm Welton’s villa. The moment Anya entered the gates, she saw Mdm Welton dressed in a comfortable–looking kaftan sitting leisurely in the garden playing with her pet dogs.
Anya walked over the wooden plank path leading to the garden as she headed towards Mdm Welton.
Anya walked up to Mdm Welton to look at her and bow slightly as she greeted, “Mdm Welton, good morning.”
Mdm Welton looked up when she heard Anya’s voice and promptly beamed kindly. “Ms. McMillan, you are finally here. Have
a seat.”
“Thank you.” Anya sat down across Mdm Welton right away, “I am done designing your outfit. Why don’t you take a look at it and letknow what you think about it?”
Anya handed the design to Mdm Welton. Mdm Welton took a glance before she smiled happily as she said, “Ms. Welton, I

like your design. Let’s go with this.”
More importantly, Anya was Mdm Welton’s type.
“I will call the garment maker from the design department in a minute.” Anya felt relieved that Mdm Welton was not picky.
“Oh yes. Have you taken your breakfast yet?” asked Mdm Welton.
“I had breakfast before leaving home.”
“Doesn’t matter. I told the maid to prepare smuffins today. Why don’t you have a bite?” Mdm Welton handed a pumpkin muffin to Anya indulgently as though Anya was already her granddaughter– in–law.
Since Mdm Welton was an elder, it would seem rude for Anya to refuse the offer. Anya obediently took a bite. It was creamy, sweet, and delectable.

Anya shook her head and felt shy about eating more. “Mdm Welton, I still have sthings to take care of. Do you mind if I leave?”
Mdm Welton sighed and was reluctant to let Anya leave. “But you only just got here. Do you really have to go? Why don’t you stay for lunch?”

“Sorry, I can’t stay. I have to get back to work.” Anya was more worried about crossing paths with Evan.
After all, Evan visited the old lady occasionally.
“Okay, I won’t insist. We can hang out when you have the time.” Since Anya had to get back to work, Mdm Welton did not force her to stay. “Feel free to swing by anytime.”
Anya could see how kind the old lady was to her, so she nodded apologetically. “Thanks, Mdm Welton.”
The moment she finished her sentence, she took her purse and left.
Anya finally heaved a sigh of relief when she got out of the villa. She looked up at the clear sky and decided not to go back to the office. Instead, she would stay hand spend twith Nathaniel and Eudora and start looking for a new job.
Despite Anya’s grand plans, it was impossible for her to quit so easily now that Evan had his eyes on her.
Meanwhile in the office, Jake discovered Anya’s resignation letter sitting on his desk..He called Anya immediately, but she did not answer the phone. Since Jake was unable to reach her on the phone, he notified Evan of Anya’s resignation,
Mr. Welton had handpicked the list of employees who were going to Paris, but Anya had suddenly tendered her resignation and was nowhere to be found, so Jake had to notify his boss about it.
