Desires Die Hard

How Can There Be So Many Women Taking A Fancy To Him?

Anya didn't feel jealous and deliberately said in a low voice, "You have so many pursuers!"

"You are overthinking. She is the sister of my comrade from Fenteon. All her direct relatives are dead." Evan reached out to caress her head and said flatteringly.

Anya rolled her eyes at him and didn't feel like talking.

Evan continued, "I will explain to you later. Let's eat now."

Anya nodded.

Gracie saw all of their intimacies and was envious. She had fantasized countless times about Evan affectionately caressing her head.

But it was just her dream.

She knew that it would never happen.

Just as Gracie was lost in thought from staring at Evan, Evan spoke again, "Gracie, take a seat."

Only then did Gracie sit down and join them.

However, when they were eating, the naughty Nathaniel knocked over the cup that contained milk and it spilled over Gracie's dress.

Anya scolded Nathaniel and handed napkins to Gracie to clean her dress.

"I'm sorry, my son is so naughty."

Gracie shook her head and had no sign of anger. "It's fine. I'm going to change it."

"I'm so sorry." Anya still felt guilty.

And she apologized again.

Gracie didn't take it to heart for she was glad to see Evan here.

Therefore, after a rough cleaning, she left the table to change the clothes.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Anya found that improper especially when she heard Evan say that she had no relatives left. Thus, she said to Evan, "Honey, I seem to have brought some brand-new dresses with me. How about I give her one?"

"The choice is yours." Evan was afraid that she would misunderstand and didn't dare to make the final call.

"Then I'll go take a look." With that, Anya handed Nathaniel to Evan and went back to the villa to fetch Gracie a new dress.

When Gracie returned to her room, the first thing she did was to get changed,

Just as she was done, her aunt came and saw the dress lying on the ground. She thought that Gracie was bullied by Anya. "Gracie, did Anya bully you?"

"Nope. Nathaniel accidentally spilled milk over my dress." Gracie shook her head.

Her aunt sighed. "Evan is so good-looking, and if you have told him that you love her, he may not have married Anya."

"Auntie, stop that. He is good to Anya." Gracie could tell that Evan loved Anya.

Her aunt was in her forties and had been there. In an instant, she put on a smiley face and reached out to pet her head. "You silly girl, men are determined by their desires, so what if they are married? When they are no longer interested in their wives, they will cheat on or divorce them.

"I heard that Evan had billions of wealth, so how can a rich and handsome guy marry only Anya?" Her aunt instigated Gracie to pursue Evan. "Gracie, are you willing to stay here?

"You should think for yourself. Evan is young and only one woman will not be his choice. You can give it a try.

"Don't worry about moralities. People are all selfish. I don't want you, a beautiful girl, to waste your youth in this secluded island."

"Auntie, I can't..." Though Gracie liked Evan, she couldn't become a homewrecker.

Her aunt, on the other hand, slighted it and continued to persuade. "Evan has taken care of you for so long and won't leave you alone. I'm asking you, do you like Evan?"

Gracie bit her lip and nodded after hesitation. "I do."

Just as she finished, Anya came with the new dress. However, when she walked to the door, she heard their conversation and stopped with a frown.

She couldn't help feeling jealous in her heart. How could there be so many women taking a fancy to him?

Thus, she didn't want to give Gracie the dress but returned to the dining hall.
