When Chris was one year old, Phil and Anya took her back to Riverside City to visit Lorie and host a birthday party for Chris.
After almost half a year, Anya finished her studies and the family of three moved back to Riverside City.
Anya bought a house for Lorie to get her to live there with the money she got from selling Lorie's property and cashing in the company.
Of course, she and Phil hired a caregiver for Lorie, who had been caring for Lorie in the hospital over these years.
Lorie had been used to being cared for by that caregiver, who was also willing to stay with Lorie because Lorie had a much better personality than her previous employers.
Although Lorie was able to take care of herself now, Anya felt worried about letting her live alone. Thus, she hired a caregiver to cook meals for Lorie and keep Lorie company. Also, Lorie could have someone help her in case of any problems.
The house was located in the complex adjacent to Anya and Phil's place.
It was a five-minute drive and a short walk from the intersection, so it was very convenient for Anya to go over and visit Lorie at any time.
As for Phil's mother, Cara Landry, Phil had brought her back to Chiobar. But Cara's situation was completely different from Lorie's. Cara had to recuperate in the hospital, so Phil sent her to the hospital, which was owned by Arthur, and the nurses there could take good care of Cara.
When Phil was in Ustistan, he used to visit Cara with Anya and his daughter. Cara would return to normal for a short while every time she saw her granddaughter.
After the family settled down in Riverside City, Phil planned to hold a big wedding for Anya.
He didn't give her a grand wedding when they got married the first time, and he still didn't hold a wedding the second time they got married considering their daughter was still abroad at that time.
Phil always felt it was the biggest regret of his life. He loved Anya so much, but he didn't even give her a formal wedding.
However, Phil's proposal to hold a wedding was firmly rejected by Anya, because it would have a negative influence on her career development.
Phil had a headache.
He just wanted to give her a grand wedding. Why did she refuse it?
Anya explained seriously, "Think about it. I just got a job as a program director at a TV station. A grand wedding will make us the most searched names, which will affect my work, and I'm sure I'll be privileged by then."
Anya was excellent in her studies, and in her final year of studying in Ustistan, she worked with her tutor on several shows, two of which were awarded.
More so, she planned a feature on Chiobar's ancient costumes for a TV show in Ustistan, which successfully introduced Chiobar's traditional culture to the overseas market, and stirred up fervor over Chiobar's traditional culture.
So, before she graduated, Riverside City TV Station offered her a job, and Anya gladly took it, which she got through her own ability.
But if she and Phil had a big wedding at this point, then she was bound to get more attention. By then, someone would doubt if she got the job with Phil's help.
Back then, she received harsh criticism because she was in a relationship with Phil. And it eventually fizzled out after she studied abroad. Thus, Anya didn't want to get all the attention or be misunderstood by others.
