Evan realized that Anya had no retort back to what he had said when she remained silent. His lips quirked faintly upwards Into a smirk. He pressed a button. The screen separating them and the driver rolled down again. Light spilled on to the backseats.

It didn’t take long before the Bentley arrived in front of a fancy Italian restaurant.

The car slid to a stop in front of the restaurant. A waiter standing at the entrance of the restaurant immediately made his way towards the car.

He pulled the door to the black Bentley open.

Anya got out of the car. Then, Evan got out next.

Anya eyed the fancy Italian restaurant before her before throwing a glance at the man next to her. She contemplated

making a run for it. Evan seemed to have read her mind. Before the young woman could do anything, he reached out and locked his fingers around her wrist.

The young man tugged Anya towards him.

“Where do you think you’re going? You can’t keep running forever,” he said casually before strolling into the fancy restaurant, his shoes clicking loudly against the restaurant’s smooth marble tiles.

Anya found herself at a loss for words again.

The man was unbelievable. He didn’t seem to have any regard for anyone and their feelings. All he wanted was to get his

He was a bully.

Anya struggled to collect herself. She had nowhere to run. She should just play along and have lunch with the man.

Besides, she was going to quit soon. She would be rid of him then.

The thought calmed Anya down tremendously. She stopped trying to sneak away. Her attempts would have been futile

anyway.
