Desires Die Hard

Chapter 147

Evan returned to his seat behind the desk as Anya stalked out of his office.

He picked up the blueprint and studied the designs for the set of kids‘ furniture. Then, he pulled out his phone and called Hayden. “Hayden, I need you in my office.”

Then, he hung up and continued studying the blueprint.

The young man couldn’t help but think of Anya as he stared at the blueprint. He recalled how she had fought against him and called him names. He wouldn’t have allowed anyone else to do the same. That person wouldn’t have stepped out of

his office alive.

But Anya had. Her scathing words had not upset Evan at all. All it did was intensify his desire to have her.

It had been a long time since Evan had met a woman who didn’t yield to him.

He swore that if he got Anya into bed, he would make sure that she wouldn’t leave the bedroom for the next three days.

Evan’s thoughts wandered further and further away from the blueprints. That was when Hayden came knocking at his door hastily. The young man walked up to Evan’s desk and dipped his head politely. “Mr. Welton, what are your instructions?”

“I want you to get a dress for Anya MacMillan. She’s a designer from JK Couture. Make sure it’s the best dress you can find,” Evan said as he tugged his thoughts back to the present. Then, he started studying the blueprint before him again.

It was Anya’s birthday today. He had done his homework and had remembered a few important dates.

Birthdays were important. The woman deserved a special treat on hers.

Hayden froze when he heard what Evan had said. He didn’t understand why Evan wanted to get a dress for Anya.

The young man recalled that Evan used to despise Anya and wanted her to stay out of his way.

What was going on with his boss?

Caught by surprise, Evan’s personal assistant fell into a prolonged silence instead of replying his boss. Evan finally looked up and away from the blueprint. A sliver of displeasure rippled across his dark eyes. “Do you need me to repeat myself?”
