Desires Die Hard

Chapter 180

Eudora should be frightened of Evan as well.

But compared to the strange woman who had abducted her, Evan was less of a stranger. Anya had brought Eudora and her brother to Evan’s place to play. The child naturally felt safer with the young man.

She shouldn’t. Anya had told her not to get too friendly with the young man when they had visited his place. She had listened to her mother and kept her distance.

But the young man was carrying her in his arms right now.

The girl felt strangely safe in his arms. His embrace felt as familiar as Anya’s.

Besides, the young man smelled nice. He smelled like peppermint.

Eudora stopped crying instantly. She wrapped her arms around Evan tightly and didn’t let go. It was as if he were her very own knight.

The woman who had snatched her from her mother had been terrifying. She had grabbed Eudora and started running. Anya couldn’t catch up with her at all.

Eudora had been so frightened.

She had been worried that she might never see her mother again.

Evan was startled by the light grip Eudora had on him. She was just a small child. The kid was hugging him fiercely with her tiny arms. A sudden and unexpected surge of paternal affection rose within the young man.

He patted the young girl’s back gently and tried to calm the child down.

Evan’s gentle gesture sent Hayden reeling with disbelief. He had just caught up with his boss.

His impression of Evan was of a distant and unapproachable man who kept everyone at a distance.
