Dan chuckled for a moment before getting up and gesturing at her to be seated as he said, “Please, Ms. MacMillan, take a seat. Our Evan is a man of honor and he has never mingled with any women at all.”

“Thanks Mr. Baker but I have some personal matters to attend to back home.” Anya replied as she did not trust any of those men.

If he never mingled with any women then what was the deal with Rain anyway?

She obviously would not know for sure if he had any other women out there aside from Rain.

However, she did not want to get herself involved in his mess, refusing to stay.

Dan noticed that she was still unwilling to stay. However, he was still a smart man and knew that as arrogant of a man as Evan was, he still had to learn how to cheer a girl up. He smiled and said, “My cousin told me about the incident earlier. Look, just think of this dinner as my way of apologizing on behalf of my cousin. This has absolutely nothing to do with Evan, Just pretend that he doesn’t exist.”

It seemed that whatever Dan said made sense to her.

After hesitating for a moment, Anya still decided to reject his offer. She said, “Oh that is nothing, thanks for your goodwill, Mr. Baker.”

“Oh what do you mean it’s nothing? It’s your head, you know?” Dan replied and seemed to be abnormally caring towards someone. This caused Lola, who had just gotten seated, to chuckle softly and told Evan, “Hey Evan, look at how good my cousin is but why haven’t I noticed that he has a crush on Anya yet?”

Evan remained silent as his gaze darkened significantly. He took a couple glances at Anya while his lips twitched before calmly saying. “What happened to you guys at night?”

“Nothing much, well, she came to talk to me about the design work again. Rain came over to hang out with me as well but ! don’t know what’s wrong with her and she just thinks that Anya has some sort of relationship with you, so she decided to push her.” Lola explained to Evan about what had happened earlier.

Evan’s gaze darkened even more as he heard that. He then asked, “Is she okay, though?”

“She’s fine now,” Lola replied. However, after she said that, she suddenly found the situation odd since Evan had never once cared for a woman before. She was confused about what was happening.

‘Why does he care about Anya as well?‘

“What exactly is going on with those two?

After pondering about it for a brief moment, Lola could not help but say, “Why are you so caring towards her, Evan?”

“It’s nothing.” Evan replied as he did not wish to tell anyone about how he felt.

It seemed that he had feelings for Anya already but the feelings he had were not romantic at all. Instead, his feelings

towards her were merely based on his physical impulse.

“Oh. I actually thought you had a crush on her, you know? You might have to fight my cousin for her then.” Lola chuckled as she teased.

Evan gave a silent scoff.

‘Fight? There won’t be a fight since I have my eyes on Anya already.”

It took Dan so much effort to convince Anya to stay. However, the only reason she agreed to stay was due to the wedding gown Lola agreed to have her design.

Thus, she reluctantly agreed to stay for dinner. When she finally agreed to stay, Dan’s smile grew wider as he turned around and pulled up a seat for her. However, it was only one empty seat away from Evan.

He immediately gestured at her to sit down before she decided to change her mind.

Anya took a glance at the seat and decided to sit down when she thought about work.

Everyone started to order their food after she got herself seated.

Dan knew that Evan was somewhat interested in Anya but he was just too stubborn to admit, so he decided to play matchmaker in order to prevent him from being single for the rest of his life.

He would have no woman to keep him company.

Dan handed Anya the menu and said, “Just order whatever you like. Tonight is my treat.”

“Thank you Mr. Baker.” Anya replied as she accepted the menu and burled herself in it while ignoring everyone else.
