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.

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.

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.
