“A penny for your thoughts?” Evan finally said coolly. Anya had been staring at him like an idiot for some time.

The young woman finally broke out of her stunned stupor. It wasn’t her fault. She hadn’t been expecting to run into Evan

here.

Besides, she was in a rush. She didn’t have the time to play his games.

*Please let me go, Mr. Welton, I’m in a rush.” Anya stuck her arms out and shoved at Evan as she struggled to free herself.

Evan simply tightened his grip on her. He was standing so close that Anya could smell his breath. It was the faint, sharp scent of cigarette smoke. It didn’t smell bad. But it was a little overwhelming. Anya could feel her heart skip a beat.

Evan’s eyes fell on the woman in his arms. She looked a little different tonight.

She had spent some time on her makeup. Had she applied eyeliner?

She had definitely applied lipstick. Her lips were a glossy pink. They looked soft like some kind of dessert. Evan was seized by the urge to kiss her.

Her dress was pretty too. It brought out her curves. The color of the dress wasn’t overly bright and didn’t draw attention to itself. In the pretty little dress, Anya looked angelic and beautiful.

Evan was well aware of how beautiful Anya was, but she seemed more mesmerizing tonight than she usually was. He found himself getting lost in her beauty. His voice was husky and almost coarse with desire when he spoke. “Where are you going dressed like that?”

“Mr. Welton, I’m off work. What I do during my personal time is none of your business. I don’t have to tell you anything,” Anya said as she threw a look at her watch. She was supposed to meet Cindy at the restaurant at half past seven.

now.

She would’ve been able to make it if she called a cab. She hadn’t expected Evan to appear out of nowhere.

Anya didn’t want to be late or, God forbid, have to call off the dinner with such a short notice. She needed to start working on the lawsuit on her mother’s inheritance.

The thought gave her a sudden boost of strength. Somehow, the young woman summoned an unexpected surge of strength and shoved Evan off her forcefully. Without saying a word, she turned around and started running.

Evan clearly had the advantage though. His legs were longer, after all. The man caught Anya easily and pulled her into his arms again. “I guess you’re going on a date.”

The man’s warm, large hands were wrapped around Anya’s waist and held her firmly in place. Anya was boiling with fury. She whipped her head around and glared murderously at Evan. “That’s right. I’m going on a date. Is there anything wrong with that? Are you going to stop your employees from dating? You seem to have a lot of time on your hands, Mr. Welton.”

“What a surprise. I’ll be joining you, I’m curious about the guy who caught your eye. Is he as amazing as I am?” Evan said

before flicking the cigarette pinched between his fingers onto the ground. He stepped on the stub hardt.

The man pulled the door to his car open and shoved Anya into the passenger seat. He fastened the seatbelt for her before heading to the other side of the car and getting into the driver’s seat

He had driven tonight. His usual driver wasn’t anywhere to be seen.

Evan got comfortable in the driver’s seat. Then, he pressed something and locked the doors to the car

Anya was trapped. There was no way she was getting out of the car now

After stewing momentarily in her rage, Anya finally gave up. Whatever. He could come along if he liked.

Would a multibillionaire be so shameless as to stalk, a woman who was on a date? She didn’t believe it.

“Where are you going” Evan asked the woman seated next to him as he started the engine. His fingers splayed gracefully

cross the steering wheel.

“Kaiser” Anya replied frostity before pursing her hips.

She looked as if she were trying to control her temper.

Somehow, that sparked an intense surge of possessiveness inside Evan.

The man smiled faintly before slamming his foot into the

e gas pedal.

The car sped away from Ellie’s apartment and down the street. Neither of them spoke during the ride. The car was filled with a tense silence.

A silence that was punctuated by their breathing. There was something terribly suggestive about it all.

Anya tried to stop herself from looking at the man. She turned away and stared out the window, at the lights speeding past

het

The gears in her head began to turn furiously. How was she going to get rid of Evan?

Should she tell him to leave her alone? Perhaps she should ask him to join them.

The latter option didn’t seem appropriate at all.

She was having dinner with Cindy’s cousin because she needed his help as a lawyer. She wasn’t really going on a date.

What should she do?

Anya couldn’t think of a solution no matter how hard she tried. They were going to arrive at the restaurant soon. She had to say something. “Thank you for the lifC Mr. Welton.”

“Don’t worry. I’m not going to join you for dinner. I’m not interested in becoming the third wheel to someone else’s date,” the man said. He seemed to have read her thoughts

His voice was low and husky. It sounded almost sexy. “I’ll be sitting at the next table. I’m going to watch.”

Anya found herself at a complete loss for words when she heard that.

Well, at least he wasn’t going to actively ruin her dinner. She should probably thank the gods for that.
