Desires Die Hard

Chapter 52

The old lady brought Anya into the villa and to her large closet underground.

The closet was filled with premium silk and the finest jewel.

Anya moved around carefully when she entered the closet with the old lady. She was terribly worried about bumping into the precious pendants hanging in the room and damaging them.

If she did, there was no way on earth she could afford to compensate for them even if she sold everything she owned.

“Are you a fresh graduate?” The old lady walked up to an ebony–colored wardrobe and opened it to reveal her hat collection.

“Yes, I just graduated not long ago.”

“Then you are quite young.” The old lady smiled and liked Anya even more. She retrieved a light grey wool hat from the collection and handed it to Anya as she said, “I want to use this kind of fabric for my new hat for the fall.”

Anya touched the hat carefully. It was made from the finest wool. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

“Mdm Henkel, what kind of design do you prefer?”

“I would prefer if it wasn’t too trendy. I just need something that works for my age,” said the old lady gently.

“I see. I will come up with the design after I get back. I will ensure you are satisfied with the final product.” Anya returned the hat to the old lady carefully.

The old lady passed it to the butler to put away before she said to Anya, “Have you had dinner?”

Anya shook her head. “Nope. I was planning to eat when I got home.” If she went home now, she was still in time to dine with her darling children.

“Why don’t you stay? I have to eat alone all the time, so I would really like it if you could stay.” The old lady was in a rather good mood and genuinely liked the young woman.

“Mdm Henkel, thank you for the offer, but we are not allowed to dine with our clients.” Anya felt flustered.

She did not wish to eat with the old lady. Moreover, it was against company policy for the employees to dine at their clients‘

homes.

“Don’t worry about it.” The old lady insisted Anya stayed. She turned to say to the butler. “You can send for dinner.”

The butler nodded.

“Thank you for your offer, Mdm Henkel. Our company has rules about us eating with clients.” Anya felt worried when the old lady refused to change her mind..

How could she stay for dinner?

“Rules can be changed” The old lady took out her phone as she spoke. “I will give Mr. Hanson a call right away and tell him

about it.”

She paused before she added, “Stop calling me ‘Mdm Henkel You don’t have to be so formal with me

Anya acknowledged her obediently. She started to get even more anxious when she saw the old lady calling her boss. have to go back for dinner” She mumbled.

problem?

Initially, Jake assumed the client was calling because Anya made her angry. It turned out she wanted to keep Anya for dinner. He was a little caught by surprise before he softly said, “Mdm Henkel, it is against company policy for employees

The old lady interrupted Jake before he could finish his sentence, “I am your most important client. Can’t your employee even stay for dinner?”

Jake went quiet and said a few seconds later, “Sure thing”

He saw no problem letting Anya stay for dinner

After the old lady hung up the phone, she told Anya. “Ms. MacMillan, your immediate superior has already agreed about

you staying for dinner”

“Perfect” The old lady laughed happily

Her bright laughter reverberated through the atmosphere as someone suddenly opened the closet door. A familiar voice came from behind Anya “Granny, why are you so happy today?”

“Evan, I wasn’t expecting you” Mdm Welton immediately recognized the familiar voice. Se tilted her head towards the

door as she looked at him

It was none other than her grandson, Evan

The old lady was instantly so happy that she beamed
