Chapter 158

Tur Welton please step away from me I believe you invited me over for breakfast.” Anya tried to stop the wave of monification from washing over her and turning her cheeks red as she shoved hard against Evan’s towering form.

But she was no match for the strong young man

The young woman was trapped in the embrace of Evan’s strong and unyielding arms.

The sour barely move at all.

Herschbody was pressed hard against his firm chest. Amidst her struggle, she couldn’t help but rub herself against the man Her touch ser something in Exen aflame

Exar’s dark eyes were an to an abyss. A strange dark fire burned in them. His eyes held nothing but Anya’s reflection. Water the woman done to him? Why couldn’t he let her go? He seemed to have lost command of his very own arms.

Even hadn’t realized the extent of power the young woman held over him until now.

His troughs remained rooted on Anys while his arms tightened around her.

How he wished he could devour her alive and make her a part of him.

He stembrace drew the two of them closer

Anys could feel every line and contour shaping the man’s firm body. She could feel something digging into her hip…. her wars began to burn with mortification

The young woman struggled fiercely to free herself from Evan’s arms. “Mr. Welton, please let me go.”

What

His lips hovered above Anya’s. It was as if he was going to swoop in and force a kiss on her at any moment. “You smell sweet. Like milk.”

Any’s head went utterly blank when she heard what Evan had said. All thoughts fled her mind.

Had the man just caught the smell of milk on her?

She was still breastfeeding That explained why she smelled like milk.

Anys was deathly afraid of what conclusions Evan might end up drawing if she didn’t try to get away from him right now.

His lips drew closer rds Anya’s. They were barely an inch apart. Any closer and they would be kissing. “Ms. MacMillan. why won’t you reconsider my offer? F’ll be good to you. In fact, I can let you have this apartment if you like it.”

“You show how much this place costs. I’m a generous lover. You can have it. Take it as a gift from me. What do you

think about that?”

She wasn’t interested in his generous gift at all.

*FIN 13:38

Anya wasn’t a prostitute selling sex for favors or money. By insinuating that she could be bought with an expensive gift, Evan was insulting her in the worst way possible. Unfortunately, she was no match for him. All she could do was stomp on the man’s foot forcefully.

Evan hadn’t expected that at all. Startled, his hold on Anya loosened.

The young woman seized the opportunity and stepped away from Evan immediately. She clutched the front of her blouse fearfully and stared at the man nervously. Evan looked unruffled. He looked exactly like what he was. The guy who owned the place. She couldn’t stop herself from glaring furiously at the man before her. Her voice was firm when she spoke again. “Mr. Welton, please respect my wishes.”

“I’ve told you many times. I’m not interested.”

“Shouldn’t you spare a thought for the kids? They need a father. A kid picked on Nathaniel a few days ago. Did you know that?” Evan knew that Anya was going to turn him down again. But he was confident that the woman would yield to him eventually. That was why he wasn’t upset or frustrated at all. Instead, he simply smoothened the front of his robes and told Anya about the incident at the mall.

A father for her children?

The young woman froze. This was why no one messed with Evan. He was undoubtedly one of the williest men in Nordeny. He had just set up a trap for Anya.

She nearly walked right into it. For a moment, the young woman had been seized by the impulse to yell at Evan. “Nathaniel and Eudora don’t need a father!”

Luckily, she didn’t. She collected herself before speaking again.

“Mr. Welton, Nathaniel and Eudora have a father. Their parents are working abroad at the moment.” Then, after another pause and a very deep breath. “Thanks for your concern, Mr. Welton.”

Evan simply laughed softly. He didn’t try to press on further. Anya was more of a challenge than he had expected. “Wait in the living room. I’ll get dressed.”

“Sure.” Anya was relieved that the man had stopped talking about Nathaniel. She still had the dress with her. Her fingers. tightened around the bag. Then, she headed back to the living room.
