Desires Die Hard novel (Anya and Evan) novel Chapter 284

Chapter 284 

Anya was stunned to hear this. Did Jamie comb the city looking for her? 

Why did she know nothing about this? She instantly felt bad about it. “The next time I see Jamie, I must thank him personally.” 

“Don’t worry about it.” Cindy patted her shoulder as she said, “Why don’t we have lunch first? I have to go for some stupid cocktail party after lunch.” 

“What cocktail party?” asked Anya quizzically. 

“It’s some cocktail party organized by a woman of high status. Young men and women from elite families are invited to socialize at the event.” Cindy felt a headache coming on just thinking about the party. She hated going to parties that were designed for matchmaking. 

“I think it is a good idea for you to go.” Anya finally realized what the cocktail party was for. She smiled as she walked over to the dining table with the kids and continued, “It is the perfect chance for you to see if there is anyone right for you out 

there.”

Anya had heard of such cocktail parties when she lived in the MacMillan residence. Only people of high society permitted to participate and it was a good opportunity for getting connected with the elite. 

Cindy had no interest in setting herself up with a guy. In reality, she already had her eyes on someone. The man was a 28- year–old young university professor around the same age as Evan. He was from an academic family and was not as well off as Cindy. 

Cindy adored talented men with a scholarly air. 

Men from rich families were cunning and liked to fool around, so she had no interest in them. She preferred decent men. Til pass. Thank you very much.” 

“Sure” Since Cindy had no interest in high society men, Anya stopped trying to encourage her to have a good time. Instead, she said, “Let’s go eat lunch.” 

Cindy nodded before she sat down and ate lunch with them. 

Moments later, Cindy glanced at Anya as she fed the twins and a thought suddenly crossed her mind. “Anya, why don’t you go to the cocktail party with me?” 

“Me?” Anya instantly stopped feeding the twins as she looked at Cindy in shock before she hurriedly turned her down. “I no longer belong in those circles. How could I go?” 

Even if she went, she would embarrass Cindy, so she would rather not go. 

“It’s perfectly fine for you to come with me. If anyone dares to complain about it, I will rip their mouths apart!” Cindy drank some soup before she continued, “Do you know who organized this cocktail party?” 

Anya shook her head. How would she know? She had never attended such parties before in her life. 

Even if she did, it was when she was just a kid. Back in the day when her mother was still alive and had yet to divorce her father, Anya had attended parties. However, it consisted entirely of elders. As for the parties intended for youngsters, she

never attended such events before. By the time she was old enough for them, Melissa had already married her father, so she did not have a chance to go. 

“It is organized by Evan’s mother.” Cindy raised her brow as she spoke. In an instant, she thought about Evan’s stunning elegant mother. “She has gone to Europe with Evan’s father to help expand the market and won’t be back so soon. “With her around, she is undoubtedly the most influential woman in high society.” 

Anya pursed her lips when Cindy brought up Evan’s mother. Since Evan’s mother had nothing to do with Anya, Anya did not want to know more about her. Instead, she continued feeding her children.
