Evan found himself at a loss for words

But he wasn’t interested in getting into the details of the matter and explaining something that he believed was mere triviality. The young man dragged Anya forcefully into his black Bentley instead.

He waited for the driver to shut the door behind them.

Then, he pulled the screen between the driver’s seat and the back of the car down. As soon as the screen was shuttered, the latter half of the car became a private area shared by only Anya and Evan

The faint scent of incense filled the inside of the dimly lit car

The dimly lit interior and the faint scent of incense set a sudden and strange mood in the car.

Anya wanted to get out. Unfortunately, the door was locked. The car was also moving.

She could struggle all she wanted but she knew that she was trapped.

The young woman leaned into the door and put as much distance between herself and Evan. There was a hint of anger in her voice when she spoke. “Mr. Welton, you have no care for the feelings of others, do you?”

She was infuriated. That explained her bluntness

Otherwise, she would have tried to bear with the man and kept her silence instead.

Evan snorted lightly. He wasn’t going to admit that Anya was right. He hadn’t spared a thought for her feelings at all and that he had been an utter bully. Instead, he simply replied mildly. “Rain tried to put you in a spot. That won’t happen again. You don’t have to worry about her anymore.”

Anya threw a glance at the man after he was done talking. After a moment, she spoke. “Thanks, Mr. Welton. But I would be more grateful if you could leave me alone.”

She wouldn’t replace herself in so much grief without his constant harassment.

He was the reason other women were trying to make her life a living hell.

She knew that her words would upset Evan and incur the man’s wrath.

But she was mistaken. The man wasn’t upset at all.

Instead, the look of resentment on Anya’s face merely sparked a devilish sort of desire in Evan. He was seized by the urge to make the woman submit to his will.

The lights in the car were extremely dim. The only source of illumination came from the faint streetlights spilling into the car through the windows. The soft light cast Anya’s face in a faint glow and lit her angelic features up. Honestly, the woman was gorgeous.

Chapter 141

Evan’s eyes darkened as he gazed at the woman before him.

The fact that he had had a few drinks didn’t help. His inhibitions had been lowered and the gates in his head opened, his most primal instinct and urges rushing past said gates. Evan’s eyes darkened further. He leaned forward without any warning, casting a looming shadow over Anya’s petite form. His fingers reached forward and were a ghostly touch against her soft silky hair. He started combing his fingers through the long dark strands. His voice was husky and hoarse. “Where did she hit you?”

They were too close. She simply had to lift her chin up slightly to kiss the man.

Anya panicked immediately. She stuck her arm out and slammed her hand into Evan’s chest. The thin white shirt under her palm felt soft. Denials flew from her lips. “She didn’t. I’m fine.”

“Honestly…won’t you consider my offer?” Evan continued playing with the woman’s hair. His voice sounded warm and soothing like a song played by a bass. “Becoming my lover will be a good deal for you. You get to have a house and a generous allowance. I’ll buy you everything.”

Evan’s voice was slow and measured. The touch of his fingers as he played with Anya’s hair was electrifying. The young

woman felt a shiver ripple down her back.

The man just wouldn’t give up until he got what he wanted.

He might be distant and unapproachable but he was also undeniably attractive.

It made sense that women swooned and lost their minds at the sight of him.

Anya didn’t lose her mind though and her rational mind told her that Evan was only looking for someone to fall in bed with.

She wasn’t interested in that.

It didn’t matter what he offered her. She wasn’t interested in any of it.

Anya ignored the electrifying shiver running down her back as she issued a firm rejection. “Mr. Welton, it’s a generous offer with attractive conditions. I’m sure many women out there would be willing to take it up. But I’m not interested.”

“What are you interested in having?” Evan stared at the woman in his arms with his dark eyes. He could barely stop himself

from kissing her.

In fact, he would like to do so much more than that.

What was Anya interested in having?

She would like to have Evan out of her sight and away from her.

That was exactly what he had demanded of her a year ago.

Anya stared at the bullish man before her. Out of nowhere, came a sudden burst of courage. She blurted out bluntly. “Mr. Welton, I would like you to stay away from me.”

There. She had said it. He might fire her for what she had said. She didn’t mind.

He might get mad and decide that she wasn’t worth the trouble. He might finally leave her alone.

The man was the most sought–after bachelor in the city, after all.

Why would he harass a poor woman who wasn’t interested in reciprocating his interest?

Anya was sorely mistaken. Evan wasn’t the sort of man who wouldn’t let up or spend any time on someone he wasn’t Interested in. But once his interest was piqued, he wasn’t going to give up until he got what he wanted.

That was why Anya’s seemingly brutal words were met with a low chuckle. The man’s laugh was soft and melodic. It was a devil’s laugh and held a devil’s charm. The man leaned in and pressed his lips against her ear. His breath felt like a brand on her skin. “Sounds like a challenge’s been issued. But you should know something. I always get what I want.”
