Desires Die Hard novel (Anya and Evan) novel Chapter 108

Chapter 108 

Jake was working in the office when he received a call from Anya. 

Initially, he was glad she called. Also, he wanted to talk to her about taking her to see Dan later in the afternoon to talk about his cousin’s wedding dress. 

After they were done with the meeting, he could ask her out for dinner. 

However, Anya ended up taking an entire day’s leave. 

Even though Jake’s plans instantly went to waste, he was not dejected. 

As long as Anya continued working at his company, he stood a chance of asking her out and getting to know her better. 

After Jake approved Anya’s leave for the rest of the afternoon, she immediately took the children and Ellie to the 

amusement park. 

Anya had not brought the kids out ever since they were born out of fear the MacMillans might cause trouble, so her children never had the chance to venture out and go to amusement parks. 

Today, she could make up for her mistake and give them some good childhood memories. 

Meanwhile, Evan sat on the couch in his luxurious penthouse with a cigarette between his fingers in one hand as he looked outside the French windows at the city that was bathed in an endless golden light. 

If the paternity test came back positive, he would have a son and a daughter. 

He did not like the feeling that someone had given birth to his children behind his back. Also, he never had a taste for fatherhood. Despite that, the moment he saw the children playing in his apartment, paternal love rose within him. 

It felt as though their biological ties were pulling him towards them and he wanted to give the children the best of what he had to offer. 

Sure enough, fatherhood came to him naturally. 

Evan contemplated deeply. 

If the paternity tests came back negative, they were not his children and he had no reason to harass 

Anya. 

Evan kept smoking as he thought about this until the cigarette burnt out entirely. He finally flicked the cigarette with his fingers before getting up to get changed and headed to the office. 

At an amusement park in Nordeny:

Anya threw aside the anxiety she had because of Evan and relaxed as she focused on hanging out with the children. 

However, Nathaniel and Eudora were too young. 

Although they were absolutely curious about all the rides in the amusement park, they were not old enough for a lot of the rides. They could only earnestly lean against the railings as they watched the older children happily taking rides in planes, cars, the Ferris wheel, and bumper cars. 

Nathaniel reached his chubby hands out as he watched them play. He waved at the unknown older kids inside as he said to Anya, “Mama, I want to try that… I want to play with those bigger kids.” 

The moment Eudora heard what her older brother said, she felt so sad that she wanted to cry. Why did he not want to hang out with her? 

Why did he want to play with those unknown older kids? 

Was her older brother abandoning her? 

Eudora blinked as she looked at Nathaniel miserably and hugged him while she cried. 

She was unable to speak coherently yet and could only manage three words: Mama, Granny, Nate. 

There were no other words she was capable of saying, so she could only hug her older brother tightly as she cried.
