Desires Die Hard

Chapter 51

Anya continued curiously looking through the luxury villa’s classic interior inside the living room.

The butler said from the side, “Ms. MacMillan, come with me. The lady of the house is waiting for you at the greenhouse.”

“Sure thing.” Anya veered her eyes and followed behind the butler to the greenhouse behind the villa.

Since the Weltons ran the huge operation, everyone in the family was busy working all the time.

Barely anyone was able to spend more time with the family matriarch, so she felt very lonely living by herself in this huge”

villa.

Hence, she passed time by keeping some pets and growing flowers.

She had a very big greenhouse. The greenhouse was created entirely of high–end thermostatic glass. It was filled with all manner of flowers such as roses, peonies, hyacinths, lilles. The huge selection of flowers made her greenhouse resemble a botanical garden.

An old lady was holding a green watering can as she watered the flowers.

The butler entered the password for the greenhouse’s digital lock and let Anya in.

He told Anya to wait near the door before he went in to tell the old lady of her arrival.

After the butler was done informing the old lady of Anya’s arrival, Mdm Welton glanced over and her eyes instantly lit up.

Anya was genuinely pretty.

The old lady had a rather good first impression of Anya, so she promptly waved and said to Anya, “Come in.”

“How do you do, Mdm Henkel? JK Couture sent me. I work as their intern designer and my name is Anya MacMillan.” Anya walked up to Mdm Welton with excitement and anxiety in her heart as she reached her hand out to shake hers.

The old lady noticed how much poise Anya had and could not help liking her even more.

The old lady had not encountered any girl whom she liked so much in years. The moment she laid eyes on Anya, she

adored Anya. That was the old lady’s honest first impression of Anya

“Nice to meet you. Did Mr. Hanson hire you recently? I have not seen you before,” asked the old lady warmly.

Anya nodded and replied obediently, “Yes, ma’am. I am a new intern at the company.”

“That’s good.” Sure enough, Anya was new at the company. The old lady studied Anya left and right. The more she looked

at Anya, the more she liked the young woman. A bold thought suddenly crossed the old lady’s mind.

This pretty girl seemed perfect for her grandson, Evan.

The old lady promptly asked, “Mind if I ask you something personal?”

“Mdm Henkel, be my guest.”

“Are you seeing anyone?”

The butler was stunned by her question. Had she taken a liking to this young lady?

Anya was caught by surprise too. She felt a little awkward since it was a very personal question. After all, it was their first meeting and the woman was a client. Anya was unsure whether she should reply honestly.

After some hesitation, Anya felt it did not matter for her to answer honestly since this woman was just her client. She smiled at the old lady and replied gently, “I am not seeing anyone.”

“Oh, I see!” The old lady was instantly delighted. Since she was single, she could introduce Evan to her. “Come on. Let’s go in and talk about my hat.”

“Sure, Mdm Henkel.” Since the old lady was unusually happy, she threw aside her airs of an elder and held Anya by the hand enthusiastically as they headed to the villa.

The butler followed quietly behind them as he watched and sighed in surprise.

From the looks of it, she was interested in this young designer.

Then again, he welcomed the idea.

Mdm Welton was a kind, old lady. If the young woman had the honor of marrying into the Welton family, she would have a good life. Mdm Welton was sure to treat her well and her grandson was a good man as well since he was not a rich playboy.

The butler thought about this a step further than the old lady. He could not help smiling as he followed behind them and entered the residence.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
