That was Anya’s first and only meeting with Phil’s parents. She did not utter a word and then Phil kicked Trevon and Cara out of Phil’s house.
They parted on bad terms.
After his parents left, Phil was worried that Anya might be hurt by his mother’s words and comforted her anxiously. He said, “Forget about her words. I love you. Really.”
She expressed her calm truthfully. However, for some baffling reasons, Phil was angry with her. Seemingly, it was because she was not angry.
But wasn’t he worried about her being angry?
Later, she realized it was because Phil figured out that she did not have the idea of being with him for life.
Anya thought Phil was too childish.
Even if she wanted to be with him for a long time, could they really be?
In the end, her mother’s car accident was exposed and they were split up.
At this moment, Anya did not know why Phil said she had chosen a good place to study. After Phil calmed down, he did not want to trouble Anya with his disagreement with his parents. So, he sat up.
“Sorry, I’m going to prepare for lunch now.” He got to his feet. He did not forget his real task—cooking for Anya.
But he had just taken a few steps when his phone rang.
It was his assistant on the phone talking about the work and the content of the meeting hosted by the assistant just now. It seemed Phil needed to go to the company right away.
After Phil hung up the phone, Anya said to him, “Cope with your own business. I’ll just cook for myself.”
Anya did not think that Phil should handle these trivial matters. Thus, she was calm in the face of his work-family conflicts.
Phil took away his phone, “No, I ask him to take the files here.”
Then, he added, “I take my assistant here to train him and help me. If he needs me to deal with everything, then why do I need him to be here?”
Phil was so stubborn. Anya could not add her comments and just let go.
Phil was extremely wealthy now, never lacking money.
When Phil was cooking, his assistant rang the bell outside. Anya had to open the door for him. In fact, she did not want many people to know her current connection with Phil.
She had met the assistant before. The assistant and she were people around Phil and had a lot of contact with each other.
Anya opened the door and the assistant was standing outside. He said politely, “Hello, Ms. Willigen, I came here to deliver some files to Mr. Henderson.”
“Please come in.” Anya sidled and the assistant came in and went to the sofa in the living room.
She herself went to the kitchen and said to the man busy cooking, “Mr. Leach is here.”
The assistant was called Gaven Leach. Phil thought highly of him and often gave him many important tasks when they were at home.
“Just let him wait,” said Phil, irritably.
