Chapter 243
“Do you actually think I’d do so much just for you to sleep with me?” Evan chuckled in a clear voice.
That was indeed what he previously wanted. However, it seemed that he had changed his mind a little recently. He wanted to try having an official relationship with her.
Although this did not mean that they would be dating until they get married, being his girlfriend would be considered an having an official relationship together already.
“So, I need you to thoroughly think this through.” Evan then continued, “I will treat you well if you become my girlfriend.”
Anya pursed her lips in that instant and she would never even think about it.
However, she still had to get out of his arms, so she had no choice but to submit to him temporarily. She said, “…/’ll think
about it.”
“Can you release me now then?”
It was just too obvious to him as to what Anya was thinking. However, since he still wanted her to accept him, he did not continue forcing her and decided to release her.
The instant he released her, Anya immediately backed away from Evan as if she was avoiding him like the plague.
Her reaction actually made Evan want to impulsively hug her in his arms again and to make sure she was obedient to him. However, he knew that there were some things that he should not rush. Thus,
immediately letting her go. He suddenly said, “What do you say that we set Nathaniel’s and Eudora’s paternity test to next week?”
The paternity test again. Anya already knew he would not be dissuaded that easily.
Since she would be moving and resigning from her job next week, she would not get the paternity test done anyway, so she simply said, “Alright. It’s up to you.”
“So, it’s a deal then?” Evan calmly replied.
Anya nodded. However, her phone suddenly rang and it was from Jake. She believed that he was looking for her when she went missing
Anya was not bothered that Evan was present with her as she picked up the call since he could not stop her anyway. She then said, “Hello, Mr. Hanson”
“Where are you, Anya? I’ve looked everywhere for you but I can’t find you.” Jake asked. He was nearby the dancefloor at the ground floor and he was pacing all over the area while talking on his phone.
“Oh, I… My friend came over early and I’ve met up with her outside. I forgot to tell you that.” Anya dared not tell him the truth after realizing how much he cared for her. She continued, “I originally planned to call you when I got in the car. I’m really
sorry.”
“You left already?” Jake was stunned and felt slightly disappointed in that instant. He then said, “Why… why didn’t you tell

me sooner?‘
MA
“I’m really sorry but my friend came over so suddenly.” Anya pretended to explain. She apologized profusely.
“It’s okay. Well… get home safely then.” Jake replied. Jake would never blame her as all he could was blame himself as to why he delayed so much again.
He originally planned to confess his feelings for her that day but in the end, he did not succeed. It was too late for Jake to regret it then as all he could do was hang up, return to the deck and drink in sorrow.
When Anya looked down from the second floor, she could see Jake drinking alone and felt very guilty about it. However, she knew about his feelings, so all she could do was feel sorry for him.
She was unwilling to accept any men at the moment. All she wanted was to make money for her family and deal with the court case with Mr. Granger. She did not want to think about anything else.
However, when Evan noticed how Anya was looking at Jake, he interpreted her feelings as something else entirely. He got up and slowly approached her from behind before saying, “You like him?”
Evan had always been a really blunt person and would not hold back anything. When he said that, Anya initially wanted to tell him yes. However, she was worried that he might do something to Jake if she was to pretend to admit. So, she decided against it and said, “No. I don’t have feelings for anyone.”
Evan chuckled before gently brushing his fingers across her messy hair. He stared at her and calmly asked, “So, you don’t even like the lawyer, Mr. Granger?”
Anya immediately turned around to look at him after he said that. She knew she had been tricked again. It seemed that Evan was a terrifying man indeed. It seemed that he truly was setting up traps for her all of the time.
Moreover, he would always know what she was thinking and would say next. If he wanted an answer, he would trick her into telling him everything without much effort. Content from NôvelDr(a)daisynovel.com.
Just like the moment then, she was foolishly tricked again.
