Desires Die Hard novel (Anya and Evan) novel Chapter 272

Chapter 272 

The black Bentley continued speeding down the busy road and it did not take long for them to arrive at Evan’s luxury apartment. 

He did not force her to come along with him this time, so the atmosphere between them was quite laid back for the duo. 

When they entered his apartment, Evan took off his necktie and tossed it on the couch before unbuttoning two buttons from his shirt. He then said, “Why don’t you take a look in the fridge to see if there’s any ingredients?” 

Anya placed her bag down and went to look for ingredients in the fridge. 

Anya had always assumed that for someone as busy as Evan, and even though he had a maid to tend to his needs, he would not have that many ingredients in his home. However, when she opened the fridge, she was greeted by a fully stocked fridge. 

This made Anya wonder if he intentionally prepared all of this for her. 

What Anya did not know was that those ingredients were, in fact, prepared by Evan just for her. 

Anya looked through the fridge for a moment before taking out all the ingredients from it. Evan took a glance at direction and rolled up his sleeves. He slowly approached her and said, “Let me help.” 

her 

Anya was startled when he said that, and nearly dropped a cabbage on the floor. She nervously looked at the serious looking man that was there to help and said, “You know how to do all this, Mr. Welton?” 

“How could I not know how to help out?” Evan replied before helping her set aside some cutting tools. He then said, “What are you still dawdling about for? Don’t you need to make the preparations before you cook?” 

Anya gave a simple expression before grabbing the cabbage and slowly began cutting it. 

She placed the chopped vegetables into a glass container while Evan helped wash them. He actually seemed like he knew what he was doing and did not look like a man that did not know how to cook. 

Evan, however, was actually not that good in cooking. He was only able to cook a simple dish. 

He lived with his grandfather for several years back then and the old man raised him in a very militaristic manner. He was strict to him and would not allow the maids or the caretaker that came along with him to help out in any way. 

His grandfather did 

did all of this so that he would not feel as entitled as the other rich kids out there. So, he was able to wash 

vegetables and do other basic preparations. 

He was only able to take over the massive operations of Welton Group due to the strict upbringing his grandfather raised him with back then. Even after taking over such a massive business, he did not feel entitled at all and, instead, was quite humble and polite. 

Although Anya was feeling a little nervous when Evan was cooking with her, she unknowingly started to know him a little better. 

When the man was in Welton Group, he seemed cold and intimidating to everyone. However, she recently discovered that behind that cold façade, he was actually a really capable man.

This would explain why there were so many women in the capital that were fawning over him. 

Anya continued making dinner with Evan’s help. When she was done making a three–course meal, the duo sat down and shared the meal together at the dining table. 

Evan intentionally opened a very well–aged red wine bottle before dinner. 

He poured some for Anya. 

Although Anya was no longer breastfeeding, she still did not want to drink. She would be prone to lose herself if she drank, so she did not drink any. She began eating and wanted to return home as soon as she was done with dinner. 

Evan did not seem to be hungry when she ate. He was instead slowly sampling the red wine in his wine glass, 

Anya did not want to look at him, but she was able to feel his burning warm gaze. That made her immediately start to eat 

faster.
