Chapter 164
Evan didn’t linger for long. The young man had other important matters to attend to.
Without any hesitation, he instructed the driver to start the car immediately.
Anya finally stepped out of the building after Evan had driven off. She stared as the car headed into the setting sun. Waves of exasperation and powerlessness threatened to overwhelm her as she pinched the bridge of her nose.

She was going to finish her design for Lola’s bridal gown and then, she was going to quit her job at JK Couture. She swore she would do it.
Meanwhile, back at Ellie’s apartment, the twins, Nathaniel and Eudora were having their afternoon nap.
When Anya got back to the apartment, she had to tiptoe around the house so as not to wake her precious darlings. The young woman decided to take a shower.
The hours spent playing golf with Evan had left her sticky with sweat. It wasn’t a pleasant experience at all.
In fact, she felt terrible.
Anya had her shower, then changed into something comfortable. After that, she began pumping breast milk for the kids.
While she was pumping breast milk, Ellie brought a plate of freshly sliced watermelon over to her. “Anya, have some fruit. It must be warm outside. This should make you feel better.”
Anya nodded at her aunt. “Thanks. I’ll have some after I’m done.”
“You know… I’ve been thinking about selling this apartment. I think we should move into a new place, somewhere nice,” Ellie said as she placed the plate of sliced watermelon on the table and sat down next to Anya.
Her aunt’s comment caught Anya by surprise. That seemed to have come out of nowhere. The young woman wasn’t sure why her aunt was considering selling her apartment. “Ellie, the location of your apartment’s great. Why would you want to
sell it?”
Besides, apartments in Nordeny cost a fortune.
They might not be able to afford another apartment that had a location that was as good as Ellie’s current place.
The location of Ellie’s current apartment wasn’t the best but it was good.
“Nathaniel and Eudora will be in kindergarten soon. We have to start thinking about their future. The schools in this neighborhood aren’t very good. If we want to place them in a good kindergarten, we’ll have to move to a neighborhood with better schools.” Ellie was clearly still the more mature woman.
She had thought of everything even before the kids‘ mother had.

If she hadn’t said a word, Anya wouldn’t have realized why Ellie wanted to sell the place.

“Let’s not sell the apartment first, Ellie,” Anya sald. “I’ll work hard at my job and in a few years, I should have enough savings to pay the down payment for a new apartment. We don’t have to worry about getting Nathaniel and Eudora into a good kindergarten for another few years. There’s still time.”
Ellie simply smiled softly at her niece. “Anya, I’m not trying to put you down. But the apartments in Nordeny cost a bomb. A tiny apartment with a good school in the neighborhood could cost a million dollars. You’re talking about setting aside savings of approximately four to five hundred grand within two years. What If you don’t manage to set aside that amount of money? The kids won’t be able to get into a good kindergarten. We can’t let that happen.”
Ellie had no children of her own. Anya was her sister’s daughter. With her dear sister gone, Anya became a daughter to
Ellie.
She was willing to give up anything for her daughter.
