The car pulled up at a posh restaurant half an hour later. 

Anya was forced to lunch with Evan. Fortunately, he did not try to do anything funny over lunch. 

Perhaps he was genuinely overwhelmed with work recently. Even throughout lunch, people kept calling him, so he spent most of the lunch answering the phone. 

They went back to Welton Group after lunch and parted ways. He headed to his office on the top floor as she returned to 

JK Couture. 

All the designers at JK Couture had seen Lola’s press conference. Even though Carol and Tammy continued to hate Anya, the rest of the designers suddenly felt bad about treating Anya so harshly. 

Anya had not leaked the information at all, but all of them had taken a part in scolding her. 

The designers decided to buy an exquisite cake and welcome Anya with the cake when she got back to JK Couture. Anya felt overwhelmed when she saw everyone welcoming her. 

For a moment, Anya was even worried they wanted to smash the cake on her, so she instinctively raised her hands to protect herself. Before she was able to raise her hands all the way up, everyone said in unison. 

“Anya, we are really sorry for the misunderstanding. We want to apologize to you.” 

The moment everyone finished their apology, the head of administration came over with the cake and gave it to Anya on behalf of everyone. “Anya, this is for you. Please accept our apology.”

Anya 

stunned as she looked at them in disbelief. All of them used to hate her a lot. 

She could not help feeling moved when they suddenly treated her so well. Now that they had finally accepted her as a colleague, she nodded at the good news before scraping some cream off the cake with her finger and eating it. 

It felt absolutely sweet. 

“I really appreciate it.” 

“I know you never intended for this to happen. Now that the air is cleared and JK Couture’s Reputation is saved, everything 

is fine.” The head of administration smiled as she said, “Come in and have more cake. Let’s eat it together.” 

“Okay.” Anya nodded as she walked in with the head of administration. 

Something good finally came from the incident. Most of her fellow designers changed their opinion of her and stopped disliking her. 

This was good news for her. However, it did not mean she wasn’t going to quit. 

Fortunately, she probably would not have to suffer for the rest of her time here. 

At 7:00 PM at night, Cindy came over to Anya’s apartment to pick her up. 

She had to check out the place Cindy had picked for her. Anya came downstairs from their apartment and happily got into Cindy’s Maserati. 

The moment she got into the car, she could not suppress her joy as she said, “Cindy, I am so happy today.” 

“What happened? Did you win the lottery or something?” asked Cindy as she smiled and started the engine. 

“Well, I didn’t. My colleagues finally changed their opinion of me after the incident,” said Anya happily. She was so delighted that even Cindy could sense it.. 

“Then, are you still quitting?” 

“Of course I am. Although I am no longer a target, Welton Group still belongs to Evan, so I can’t stay there forever.” 

Cindy nodded. “That’s true. Let’s not talk about him tonight. Let me show you the new place.” 

“Sure.” 

Cindy found her pretty good accommodations at a villa district called Oak View Mansion. 

Oak View Mansion was a high–end villa district, so it was worth far more than the apartment Cindy was currently staying at. 

The moment Cindy brought Anya there, Anya shook her head without even looking at the villa and rejected the place right 

away. 

“How could you get me a villa? I could never afford the rent here.” Anya glanced at the luxurious villa in front of her and thought Cindy was nuts. 

“Why not?” Cindy smiled as she patted her shoulder and said, “My parents gave me this villa. To be honest, I don’t like this district or living among wealthy elites. I prefer living in a condo.” 

“Then are you expecting me to live here?” Anya did not know what Cindy was thinking.
