Desires Die Hard

Chapter 240

The tense atmosphere swiftly subsided as the other designers clinked glasses.

Carol returned to her seat and drank by herself angrily. Tammy did not want to appear too close to Carol in front of everyone. She did not want Jake to make things difficult for her if she wanted to jump ship and work for EU Designs.

She cautiously kept a distance from Carol.

After eating for an hour, they finished dinner and proceeded to go drinking. They drew lots and decided to go to one of the most popular clubs in town called Lavo.

Anya planned on going home right after dinner to see her children. Since Jake and the other designers, who had changed their opinions of her insisted she stayed, she could only go to Lavo with them.

Lavo was very popular with the youngsters. Most of its clientele consisted of people from rich families or celebrities.

Of course, common folk visited the club as well. Since they were unable to spend as much money, they rarely came.

Jake was determined to give them the time of their lives tonight, so he

generously spent $5000 for a private booth. Along with all the drinks, Jake spent over $20 000.

Since Jake had an annual income of $45 000, $20 000 was nothing to him.

His salary and designer commission added up to about $100 000 income per

annum.

Considering his income, he did not flinch when he spent the money, especially since he was doing it to court Anya.

Jake was more than happy to splash out as long as Anya was happy.

Anya was not in the mood. The clubhouse music kept blasting in her ears so hard that her eardrums nearly split. She preferred a quiet ambiance. Since everyone was so happy tonight and she was already here, she decided to blend in.

She forced herself to revel in the club's party atmosphere.

"I will send you back later." Jake opened a bottle of juice for Anya and handed it to her warmly. "It will be late by the time we go home, so it's a bad idea for you to go back on your own by cab."

"It's fine, Mr. Hanson. I might go back a little earlier tonight." Anya did not want to cause any misunderstanding by taking a

ride from Jake

Jake did not want to pass up on the opportunity to confess his love to her tonight and said gently, "It's too late. I'm worried about letting you go on your own."

"Anya, please don't turn down my offer. I'm really worried about you going back alone at this hour."

Anya went quiet. She genuinely did not want a ride from Jake!

"Mr. Hanson, I can get my friend to pick me up. It will be perfectly safe."

Anya did not refuse him this time and nodded in agreement. "Sure."

"It's settled then," said Jake gently.

He started feeling nervous since he had never confessed his
