Chapter 249

The sun was shining brightly the following day. She had a dreamless night.

It was already eight in the morning by the tAnya woke up. It seemed that she had overslept a little. She hastily freshened up in the washroom, changed into her clothes and was getting ready to head to work.

However, the instant she walked out from the room, she was greeted by the mald. She had a huge smile on her face and was holding a bowl of herbal soup in her hands as she said, “Oh Ms. MacMillan, you’re awake?”

“Yeah.” Anya replied in a bashful tone as she felt shy to look at Evan’s maid.

She felt slightly embarrassed and wanted to leave.

The maid could tell that she was in a hurry, so she immediately said, “Hey Ms. MacMillan, why don’t you leave after you finish this bowl of herbal soup?”

“No, there’s no need for that. I need to head to the office now.” Anya refused as she reached out and frantically waved at

her.

However, the maid continued to say, “But Mr. Welton toldthat you must drink it.”

“Where…is he though?” Anya asked as she finally realized that he was nowhere to be seen after she woke up after the maid mentioned him.

“Mr. Welton left very early in the morning.” The maid answered honestly.

Anya felt relieved instantly as she simply replied, “Thank you, aunty.”

“What are you thankfor? It’s my duty to take care of you, Ms. MacMillan.” The maid replied. She was a great judge of character and since Evan was determined to making Anya stay, she must be different. She recalled the twhen Anya passed out previously, Evan actually carried her back in his arms!

The maid would never look down on her nor would she treat her poorly.

“Can I leave now then?” Anya asked as she was afraid that Evan might have told the maid that she was not allowed to go to work. If that was the case, she would be extremely furious about it.

“You can.” The maid replied as she would not force her to stay. She then added, “But, can you leave after you finish this bowl of herbal soup, Ms. MacMillan?”

Anya took a glance at the bowl of herbal soup in the maid’s hand and hesitated for a moment before accepting it. She did not want to waste anymore time, so she said, “Thanks.” She immediately chugged the bowl of herbal soup down after she thanked the maid.

She returned the bowl to the maid after she chugged it down in a single gulp before leaving in a hurry.

Anya was only able to fully relax and called a cab to JK Group when she exited his apartment and arriving at the main road.

Chapter 249

After she clocked in to work when she arrived, she had no intentions of delaying further as she rushed to finish Mdm. Welton’s coat design

She would be able to resign after she finished the design.

She spent the entire morning working on the design. However, when lunchtapproached, her cowardly father, Comelius, who had never once cared about her, suddenly called her.

This was the first tin two years ever since the incident with Evan that Anya had received a call from him.

Anya was slightly surprised but she was also extremely disgusted and disappointed by it. She had already disowned such a cold–blooded father like him.

Thus, she did not pick up when Cornelius called. However, he kept calling and it took him five attempts before Anya was willing to pick up. She responded in a very hostile tone, “What do you want?”

“It’s been so long. Anya. How are things recently?” Cornelius pretended to care about his daughter.

However, Anya was unwilling to reconnect with him because he had long since been unworthy of such privilege. Thus, she said, “Speak your mind. If you don’t have anything to say, I’m actually really busy.”

“I actually do have something to talk to you about.” Cornelius could tell that Anya was getting impatient, so he decided not to beat around the bush as he continued, “Chand have dinner with us in the MacMillan home. Your grandma has something to talk to you about.”

“I have nothing to say to her.” Anya replied. She would never go since her grandmother resented her this much and if she was to go, would she not be falling into her trap willingly?

“Anya, she has been reflecting about you and your mother recently.” Cornelius replied. He knew she would never show up. so he continued, “She thought sthings through

so she wanted you to chfor dinner and talk about your mother’s inheritance.”

The instant her mother’s inheritance was brought up, Anya would not refuse to show up then. After thinking about it for a moment, she said, “Alright. I’ll be there tonight.”

“Alright.” Cornelius nodded before hanging up the call.

The old lady that was sitting in front of him started cackling out loud sinisterly as she said, “When she comes home, I’ll marry her off to that crippled boy from the

Xavier family.”

Cornelius had no opinion on this matter.

Although the boy from the Xavier family was crippled, his family was rich. If she was to get married into his family, they would not treat her poorly, thus Cornelius thought that the arrangement was actually not a bad one.
