Desires Die Hard

Chapter 89

The young man delivered the news to Evan as soon as he ended the call.

Evan simply hummed when he heard what Hayden told him. Then, he told Hayden to leave the room.

He was going to tell Jake that Anya was now responsible for designing the wedding gown for Dan’s cousin.

Jake told him that Anya had headed to his grandmother’s place.

After the call, Evan rose to his feet. He decided to pay his grandmother a visit.

Anya made her way to Mdm Welton’s place as soon as she could.
