Desires Die Hard

Anya Couldn't Leave

"Mr. Olson..." Minta looked at Cohen speechless.

She couldn't believe Cohen was so shameless. Cohen had told her that but now he denied it.

"Anya, he told me that Evan would be summoned by the police after he landed in." Minta was anxious, as she didn't want Anya to think that she was alienating her from Evan. "It's true. I swear that he told me that."

Frowning, Anya glanced at Cohen and Minta who flushed with anxiousness. She chose to believe Minta because Minta never lied.

However, Anya wasn't sure about that with Cohen.

She couldn't completely trust him.

But it didn't matter right now, as Anya worried about Evan more. With a deep voice, Anya said, "I think it's a misunderstanding. We should leave now."

After a pause, she eyed Minta to leave. "Have a good rest, Mr. Olson. We need to go back to the company.

"Please call me if you need anything."

Cohen didn't want Anya to leave, so he suddenly raised his hand to catch Anya's. Before he could catch it, Minta blocked him deftly. Cohen was furious as he couldn't hold Anya's hand, so he glared at Minta.

Minta's here to ruin my plan.

I won't let her go.

"Wait, Ms. MacMillan. Don't forget the photos," Cohen said. He didn't want Anya to leave.

Speaking of the photos, Anya said after hesitation for a while. "Where are they? I'll go get them."

"I have asked Sam to bring them." As Cohen said, he was struggling to get up. However, he intentionally pressed his hand that was with the indwelling needle on the bed with strength.

All of a sudden, the blood in the needle spilled out.

It slipped from the back of his hand to the white sheet.

A large area of the sheet was red.

Anya and Sam were startled.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Sam knew why Cohen did that. He was anxious but had no idea. He had to come over and say, "Please don't move, Mr. Olson. I'll ask a nurse."

"It's not a big deal. The design competition is going to begin while JK Couture is suppressed. We need to discuss our design direction. I don't want us to lose," Cohen said as he waved his hand to make light of his bleeding hand. He continued to get up and lean on the bedside.

Anya knew it would be rude if she said she was going to leave at the moment as she saw Cohen who looked miserable but still worried about the competition.

She was left with no choice but to stay.

Frowning, Anya said, "There's no hurry about the design competition. We will discuss it after you're discharged from hospital, Mr. Olson."

"It's okay. I can hold up," Cohen said stubbornly.

Anya didn't know what to say.

She had to agree.

Cohen felt delighted as Anya stayed. When the nurse came to change the needle, Cohen forced himself to talk about the photos he took today with Anya. They discussed for more than one hour, and Cohen finally got exhausted and lay down.

Anya and Minta walked out of the ward after Cohen fell asleep.

Out of the ward, Anya immediately called Evan. She was worried about him. What if what Minta had said was true?

The phone was connected.

Evan's private airplane had arrived.

Hearing Evan's voice, Anya felt relieved. With excitement, she said, "Honey, is everything alright with you?"

Evan replied, "Yes, everything is okay. I've landed. Are you in the company?"

"I'm in the hospital but I'm going to the company soon. Shall I go to pick you up at the airport?" Anya asked, as she wanted to confirm if Cohen had lied.

Evan became anxious as he heard Anya was in the hospital. "Why are you in the hospital?"

"I'm here to visit Cohen. He's sick," Anya said. She wouldn't lie to Evan because they had said that they wouldn't hide anything from each other.

"Cohen again?" Evan thought. Now, Evan was sure that Paula was kidnapped by Cohen.
