Chapter 35

“Oh Cindy, are you really coming home?” Anya asked in a excited shaky voice as she snapped out from her trance, “Well, you won’t be leaving the country anymore, right?”

“Of course, I cback to inherit my family’s business after all!” It seemed that compared to Anya’s shaky voice, Cindy actually sounded quite excited and happy.

She too had not seen her beloved best friend for years. They had grown up together and had initially agreed to study abroad together right after they were done with high school. They agreed to gaze at the moon by the Seine River while singing love songs together as they drank beer. They also agreed to travel across Paris together.

However, sthings happened to Anya’s family and her mom was forced out from her family by a mistress: After that, she had fallen extremely ill, so Anya was unable to travel abroad with her.

It seemed that she had tried to contact Anya for all these years. Perhaps it was due to the series of unfortunate events that had happened to Anya’s family that caused her to not be as cheerful as she used to when they spoke.

However, all of that did not matter anymore because she had returned hnow. As long as she beloved Anya.

e was able, Cindy would no doubt help her

“That’s awesome. When you cback, we’d be able to hang out all the time.” Anya sniffled before explaining in a much serious tone, “Well, the thing is, I am no longer part of the MacMillan family anymore nor am I the daughter of the MacMillan family. You won’t abandon me, right?”

“No way, Anya! You’re my best friend for life. Cindy assured her.

She would never be like Anya’s step–sister who schemed against her.

“Okay. So, when exactly are you returning hthen?” Anya asked. She still trusted Cindy with all her heart.

“Tomorrow.” They discussed when they’re going to meet each other and hung up after.

Anya then strode towards the elevator. Since she had to return hto feed her toddlers, she was in quite a rush. Anya rushed back to the company just in tfor work. Since she arrived just in time, she did not have to worry about having her bonus deducted.

Twent by extremely fast and the work day was over in just a flash.

Anya was rushing to pack up and

off work.

Jake noticed Anya from the huge window overseeing the office spaces. She was getting ready to leave with her bag. He immediately called her through the intercom, “Hey, Ms. MacMillan. I need you to come over to my office.”

Anya was getting ready to return hto meet her toddlers. However, after receiving his call, she could not help but to return to the design department and towards his office.

She knocked on the door.

After Jake allowed her to enter, Anya took a glance at the man who was leaning against his desk and politely said, “What can I do for you, Mr.

Hanson?”

“Yeah.” Jake replied with a gentle smile before adding, “I need you to calong withto have dinner with a client later.”

Have dinner with his client?

Anya was stunned as she did not expect that at all. She was nothing more than an Intern and regardless of her qualifications or position, she would not be qualified enough to meet his clients with him, right?

“Mr. Hanson, I’m coming along?”

“Of course. We’re leaving after you’ve packed up.” All Jake wanted was to spend a little more twith her. However, he was just too busy during the day and not to mention that there were too many people around the office as well. It would be Inconvenient for him to interact with her too much. So, the only excuse he could use to spend more twith her was to invite her along to meet his clients,

“Mr. Hanson, I’m just an intern. Wouldn’t it be a little inappropriate forto meet your clients?” Anya was a little reluctant as she did not enjoy sharing a meal with clients, especially when she had toddlers waiting to be fed at home.

“What do you mean it’s inappropriate?” Jake knew she was a little reluctant, so he intentionally said, “I see potential in you and I really want to nurture you well.”

Since Mr. Hanson had good intentions, it would be impossible for Anya to turn his offer down.

Thus, she nodded and agreed to join him.
