Chapter 57
As Anya tried to get off the car hurriedly, she became clumsy.
When she tried to alight, she immediately lost balance and fell, face down, off the car.
Evan reached his hand out to pull Anya from behind hard. He pulled her into his embrace altogether. He lowered his head and looked at her as he said deeply, “Don’t you look before you walk?”
Of course, she did. She was simply afraid of spending a second longer with him.
Was she dying to stay in the same car as Evan?
Over her dead body.
Anya naturally kept her opinions to herself. Instead, she acted polite and respectful on the surface as she said, “Mr. Welton, I am so sorry! Thank you for pulling me back.”
“I am okay now.”
However, Evan suddenly did not feel like letting her go.
The faint scent of milk was wafting from her and it was far more enticing than any perfume.
For a moment, Evan was distracted by the sweet scent of milk and forgot to let her go.
He kept holding her without saying a word.
Anya was terrified. What was Evan trying to do? Nôdaisynovel.com owns © this.
Did he think she was an easy woman or something?
Anya did not know what he was thinking, so she could only remind him softly, “Mr. Welton, can I go?”
Evan instantly snapped out of his daze when she spoke. He released his hands and let her off the car. “Go on.”
Anya pounced on the opportunity to hurriedly get off the car as she clutched her chest. “Good night, Mr. Welton.”
Evan did not look at her as he slammed the door shut with a thud. The black Bentley quickly started its engine and pulled
out of the estate.
Anya watched as his car left the estate.
She patted her chest in relief before she proceeded to call Jake.
Since Jake had been calling nonstop, he probably would not give up until she picked up the phone.
Anya swiped to answer the phone and said, “Mr. Hanson, I am so sorry about missing your calls. I was still stuck at Mdm Henkel’s place.”

Chapter 57
Jake finally felt relieved to hear Anya’s voice and promptly said, “I thought something terrible happened to you when you did not pick up.”
“I’m good.”
“Do you need a lift?” Jake was genuinely concerned about her well–being.
Since she was already home, she did not need a ride. “It’s fine.”
“Why not? It’s getting late and the villa is very far from your apartment. Even if you want to hail a cab, it will be hard to get one. Let me come over and give you a ride.”
“Mr. Hanson, I am already home.”
“You’re home?”
“Uh–huh. I just got back,” replied Anya swiftly. “Mr. Hanson, my aunt needs me. See you tomorrow.”
The moment she finished her sentence, she hung up the phone without waiting for Jake to reply and turned to head towards Ellie’s apartment.
It was such a scary day. Fortunately, Evan did not find out about the twins or else, she would be in huge trouble.
Meanwhile, Evan leaned back into the seat as he rested his eyes quietly.
He surprisingly did not want to let the woman go when she was in his embrace. Also, the scent of milk wafting from her made him feel impulsive. It was clearly a primal male instinct.
However, he clearly found scheming women like her distasteful.
Why would he suddenly fancy a woman like her?
Evan felt it was probably just an impulse. How could he fancy a woman like Anya?
Or rather, why would he feel possessive about a woman like her?
