Desires Die Hard

Evan Is Jealous Because He Loves His Wife

At noon, Evan had his own plan and didn't show up in the company. Anya couldn't have lunch with him. So, she was going to have lunch with Minta and talked to her about this.

When Dan knew it, he came and wanted to ask about what happened to Evan.

Anya thought it would be nice if someone could accompany her, so she invited Dan to have lunch together.

The restaurant was near the Welton Group Tower.

When they arrived, they picked a quiet place and sat there.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

As soon as Dan sat down, he took the initiative to pour Anya a glass of lemonade. Then, he cut straight to the theme and asked, "I heard that Evan has got himself into trouble again. Is it true?"

"Yeah. News travels fast." Anya signed and took a sip of water.

"What's going on?" asked Dan. He got too many messages about Evan in different versions. One of the versions said that Evan committed a crime. Another said that he would be sent to prison because he messed with someone powerful.

There was also a version that said Evan fell into someone's trap.

Dan was really confused. He tried to call Evan, but he didn't answer.

Because Dan was worried about Evan, he came here to ask Anya in detail.

"It's all my fault," said Anya. She felt sad when she recalled that it was all because of her selfishness.

Anya thought that if she didn't have the great ambition to help JK Couture to reach a higher level, she wouldn't choose to cooperate with Cohen.

If she just wanted to be a designer and wealthy Mrs. Welton, there wouldn't be so many troubles.

But the face was that Anya was ambitious and wanted to be as good as her husband. She also wanted to set a positive example for her baby.

So...

Anya bit her lips and said, "Recently, a fashion design agency, which is a Sino foreign joint venture, has appeared in Nordeny. And it has merged with many other fashion design companies. Only a few of our fashion design agencies with strong backgrounds remain there.

"I was worried that JK Couture might be defeated by its cut-throat competition, so I chose to cooperate with Cohen.

"Cohen is my high school alumni. He chased me before. Evan didn't trust him. But I insisted on signing a contract with Cohen and cooperated with him. Then... Evan wanted to find another designer to help me so that I wouldn't choose Cohen. But somehow ... that designer was kidnapped and disappeared.

"And then, Evan became a suspect."

Dan finally knew the truth after hearing Anya's words.

He concluded resignedly, "Evan was jealous, and he got himself into big trouble because of it."

If it was normal cooperation between Anya and Cohen, Evan didn't have to invite another designer at all.

The only explanation was that Evan felt jealous.

"I know he was jealous. But the relationship between me and Cohen was merely partnership!" said Anya resignedly.

Dan kept asking, "Is Evan really under investigation now?"

Anya shook her head and said, "Just a routine investigation. But Evan wanted to lead out the person who really kidnapped Paula, so he let out these rumors."

"He was really bold enough to do that," said Dan. He thought Evan had changed. In the past, Evan wouldn't care about this kind of thing at all. But now, he was so easy to become jealous just because he loved his wife so much.

Dan still thought this was unbelievable. But, he was relieved now.

Because he knew that Evan had not got himself into trouble.

And there was no hurry to rescue him.

"However, I used to think that there was no problem about Cohen. Now, I don't think so," Anya signed and said, "unfortunately, JK Couture needs him, so we can't do anything to him."

This was what Anya worried about.

"Anya, I can understand you," Dan thought for a moment and said, "so, you think Cohen is the man behind all of this?"

"I'm not sure because I have no proof. Cohen stayed with me all the time these days," said Anya. Evan thought Cohen was suspicious, but she was not sure.

"Fine," Dan nodded and said, "Anya, if you need some help, just call me."

Anya replied, "Thank you!"

"You're welcome. I'm Evan's buddy! Let's have lunch first." Dan said so and called the waiter to order some food.

Anya nodded.

Then, they changed the topic and only talked about their recent life and work.

After lunch, Dan went back first.

And Anya returned to JK Couture. When she walked into the building, she looked at the office near Jake's, and she saw the door was closed. Anya thought, "Didn't Cohen come to JK Couture today?"

Anya glanced at it without further checking, and she turned to her own office.

She thought she should better focus on her designing work now.
