Chapter 261

Back at the basement, Anya was still trying to pull out the wooden planks. Her fingers were already full of scratches and small cuts. Melissa was at the door with the keys in her hands. The moment Anya heard the key rattling into the key hole, she stopped what she was doing and stood on the other side of the room.

Melissa opened the door and looked at Anya. She said coldly, “Anya MacMillan, you have a thing or two up your sleeve, huh? You were able to get Mr. Welton to clooking for you?”

Mr. Welton? Evan Welton?

Anya frowned. She was in a predicament. While, on the one hand, she was glad that Evan was here to save her, on the other hand, she didn’t want to impose on Evan yet again. “Mr. Welton is here?”

“Uh huh. That’s why I am surprised at your competency. We would not dare to lay a finger on Mr. Welton’s woman,” Melissa scowled at Anya to a point she hoped Anya would just drop dead in front of her. “Get out there.”

Anya peered at Melissa as she was not sure if she should believe in what Melissa said. Nevertheless, it would definitely be better than staying in the basement, so she walked towards the door. When she walked past Melissa, Melissa said, “You know what to say later, yah? If you don’t want your aunt to go down the sroute as your mom, you better watch your

words.”

“Are you threatening me?” Anya turned and looked at Melissa coldly.

“Just think of the consequences.” Melissa was confident that Anya would abide by her, especially since her aunt was her closest relative now that they stayed together.

The Welton family was more influential than the MacMillan family, but it would be easy for the MacMillans to deal with her helpless aunt.

Anya did not say much but just replied aloofly, “OK, I’ll be tactful,”

“Good. Move along then, Mr. Welton is waiting,” Melissa said as she walked through the door.

Anya followed behind. She narrowed her eyes as she watched Melissa’s back view. Melissa thought Anya would be easily threatened? She knew this ‘family‘ of hers well. Even if it wasn’t this, they would still clooking for trouble.

Luckily for her, she was going to move house soon. The security at Cindy’s apartment was tight so she would not have to worry about them trying to sneak in at all.

The two of them got up the stairs and reached the living room. Indeed, Evan and Cindy were waiting there.

Anya saw them sitting on the sofa as she walked in. Evan really cto her rescue. She felt conflicted. Evan could be overbearing at times, but he had always cto her aid when she needed it. Even with the incidents before, he would step in to get Anya out of trouble.

She was not someone who would forget her gratitude towards people who had helped her. But she just did not want to get involved with Evan. She knew in her heart that he was not someone who would commit to a relationship. He just wanted company. And with Nathaniel and Eudora, she wouldn’t want or even dare to commit to another relationship.

Anya recollected her thoughts as Cindy and Evan stood up and walked towards her. Evan was two steps ahead of Cindy. He stood in front of Anya and looked intensely at her. He said in a low voice, “Tell me, what did they do to you?”

This question warmed Anya’s heart. But she suppressed her feelings and pursed her lips, “1”

Before she could finish her sentence, Evan looked down at the bleeding cuts on her fingers. Rage filled the man as he grabbed her hands for a closer look. It pained him to see her fair hands being pricked and scratched badly.

“They did this to you?” Evan snarled coldly. “They are asking for it then.”

His last sentence sent chills down the spines of the MacMillans. Cornelius broke into a cold sweat. Mdm MacMillan was a little intimidated as well, but she had to carry a strong front so she looked back calmly at them.

Anya was not used to Evan’s concern in front of other people. “Let’s wait for the police to arrive before we take any action.”

Melissa’s face turned green. Her threats to Anya earlier in the basement did not work. Anya did not do what she had agreed to. “Anya, are you sure you want to call the police? Think about your aunt.”

“Mdm Campbell, is that a threat?” Anya did not have the intention to get Evan involved in this but in this scenario, she had to borrow his influence otherwise they would seek revenge on her.

“No, of course not,” Melissa gritted her teeth while shooting glances at Anya. This wretch was turning the table around.

Anya would never trust the MacMillans ever again. She raised her head and looked at Evan. “Mr. Welton, they are threatening the safety of my aunt. Can you help me?” This was the first tAnya

asked for Evan’s help.

Evan softened his gaze. Very well! This woman finally asked him for a favor. No doubt about it, he would definitely help!
