“Anya, why don’t you go back first? Now that the air was cleared, Jake did not plan on holding her responsible. Tammy was partially responsible for the incident and no one knew of Lola’s mango allergy to begin with.

Both parties simply meant well when they brought Lola the mango cake and caused her allergies to act up.

Although they had made JK Couture lose a customer, he decided not to punish them for it. He decided to let matters slide even if they lost Lola’s project.

He was sure there would be other opportunities for them to work with celebrities.

Anya certainly did not think the same way. She had joined JK Couture to become a famous designer with dreams of raising her family by holding down her dream job,

If she let the matter slide without dealing with it head on, someone else at JK Couture would continue to sabotage her if she had the opportunity to work with some other celebrity in the future and she would never get to work independently.

She refused to give in this time.

She had to win Lola’s project back.

In the past, she was bullied by her stepmother and stepsister because she was a pushover.

Eventually, her mother died of illness and she was banished from the family.

From time immemorial, these were the rules of survival, so she refused to be weak this time.

Anya said with all her heart as she pondered, “Mr. Hanson, I was the one who caused Ms. Mars‘ allergic reaction, I want to see her when she regains consciousness.”

“Erm…” Jake felt a little hesitant. He was worried Lola might throw a temper and take it out on Anya. Since he was protective of her, he did not want her bullied and wanted her to go back to the company first. “Since this only just happened, I am sure she won’t want to see you. Why don’t you head back to the company first and leave me to take care of

it?”

“Mr. Hanson, I don’t want to run away from my mistakes. Can you give me the chance to convince her to give us the project?” said Anya firmly. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Jake was stunned. He was certain Lola would never give them the project. How could Anya have the confidence to make Lola change her mind? “Anya, it’s over. If you insist on staying here, come apologize to her with me.”

“Mr. Hanson, trust me.” The moment Anya finished her sentence, she entered the VIP hospital ward.

Jake watched from behind as she entered the ward and felt stunned before he smiled.

He loved Anya for this personality of hers.

She never cringed when there were problems.

M M

He was spot on about her.

The VIP hospital ward was surrounded by bodyguards dressed in black, so Lola was well–protected and it was impossible for anyone to get in.

Anya walked over and glanced at the bodyguards outside the room before she said deeply, “Hi, can I go in to see Ms. Mars?”

The bodyguards looked at Anya condescendingly. Despite her beauty, she was turned down coldly, “Ms. Mars said no visitors, especially designers from JK Couture.”

Sure enough, Lola did not want to have anything to do with JK Couture. Anya bit her lip. “Then… when can I see her?” She planned on staying here the entire day if that was what it took.

If she spent the day waiting for Lola, Lola was bound to see her.

“I don’t know,” replied a bodyguard coldly.

Anya stopped asking further. She quietly sat on a bench as she waited to see Lola.

After Jake came out of the nurses‘ room, he sat down beside Anya and said a few things before heading to the office. Since he was needed at the office, he could not spend the entire day waiting here.

Anya sat by herself thinking about what to say to Lola after Jake left the hospital.

Before long, she heard footsteps in the hospital corridor followed by shocked voices and whispers from the doctors and

nurses.

It felt as though a superstar was here.

Anya could not resist looking in the direction of the footsteps. The moment she saw the man in the corridor, she was stunned. Why was Evan here?

Dan and Lola’s fiancé were here with him as well.

Since all three of them were blessed with good looks, all the hospital staff could not resist exclaiming in surprise.

Anya felt immune to their good looks
