Desires Die Hard novel (Anya and Evan)
Chapter 209

Chapter 209

“Mr Hanson called the factory earlier to verify some details.” In actual fact, Anya had no idea how the photos were leaked. The tailor at the factory had worked with JK for many years and there had not been any issues with trust and reliability. Previously, he had also handled some important projects before and nothing of such had happened before.

“There is a suspect and Mr. Hanson is looking into it.” Anya said truthfully.

"Who is it?" Lola raised her eyebrow.

"One of JK's designers had been to the factory to look for the tailor who was tasked to make the sample for your wedding gown. Currently, there is no other evidence against the person so Mr. Hanson is still investigating.” Anya did not want to disclose Carol Walker's name as yet. Carol was a senior designer who had been with JK for many years. It would be better not to mention names, especially since she did not have any concrete evidence.

Lola nodded. She did not trust Anya initially but after thinking through the situation and having the chat with Evan, she felt that it could not have been Anya. Unless Anya did not want to continue as a designer, there was no reason for her to leak the news with her own name. The leak would not benefit her in any way either.

Lola rationalized and her anger towards Anya simmered. She said, “If you do find anything, please inform me immediately. I will pursue the matter through legal means to protect my rights.” “Understood.”

“So, can I take it that the misunderstanding between you two is resolved?” Evan chimed in gradually as the conversation between the two ladies concluded. He added on in an affectionate tone, “Ms. MacMillan, you don't have anything to worry

about anymore.”

Anya acknowledged Evan briefly. She did not notice any difference in Evan's tone, but Lola picked it up immediately. Seemed like Evan was really into Anya..

Actually, being Evan's girlfriend had its privileges. Though it could not be announced publicly, he would fulfil what he needed to do as a boyfriend, or even more. Evan was a gentleman and kept the other ladies at bay. Not too bad for a boyfriend, no?

“But, now that the news is being announced, my fans will still be disappointed with me even if I find the real culprit behind this.” Lola wanted to stay in the showbiz, so she got a little depressed while they were on this topic.

Evan said, “It is actually not a bad thing. Even if you announce it later, there will still be repercussions.” After all, there would still be a difference whether a celebrity was unwedded or wedded.

He continued after a pause, “Why not fix a day with Anya to hold a press conference and address the matter directly? Who knows, maybe your fans may just understand your stand and things will improve from there?”

“Would that really help?” Lola was not confident about the suggestion

“Give it a try and you will know. No matter how things would turn out, at least you have given it a shot. Rather than worrying about the current situation.” Evan shrugged.

Chapter 209

Lola remained silent for a moment and thought, Evan had a point. Even if the news was released later, she eventually had kept the fact that she had a fiancé under wraps. She might as well make use of the opportunity to clear things up. It would be better than staying in status quo.

"Okay, let's go with your plan.”

Evan nodded his head and passed the two menus on the table to the ladies. “Place your orders.” The ladies took over the menus and absentmindedly flipped through the pages.

This restaurant was known for their steaks. Anya did not have much appetite, hence, she ordered a small portion of steak and placed the menu back on the table. Lola was watchful of her diet since she was a celebrity. She ordered a salad as she refrained from eating meat in general. Evan placed his order of steak after them

Lola’s salad came first and then the steaks came. Anya was about to pick up her cutleries to cut her steak, but the man beside her picked up her plate and put it next to his. He started cutting her steak into small pieces, each just right for a mouthful

Anya's heart skipped a beat. But she did not say anything in case she accidentally say the wrong thing and Lola got the wrong idea.

But Lola already read the situation very well as she looked across the table at Evan who was cutting a steak for a woman. It was obvious enough, that Evan was truly in love.
