Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart

Gaven had a premonition that his boss Phil would get green with envy!

He whined with one hand covering his face, "Oh, my dear! You're screwing me."

Anya had not fallen in love with Gaven. She did it on purpose to provoke Phil and see whether he would be green with envy or just stand it.

She wanted to know whether he would be nonchalant if she really moved on.

The alcohol drove her a little bit mad. She apologized to Gaven, "I'm so sorry. I feel so bitter that I used you."

As a saying said, 'He that lies down with dogs shall rise up with fleas.' After she had been with Phil who was crazy for so long, she became as crazy as her. Since Anya had apologized sincerely and she was his boss' beloved one, Gaven had to forgive her.

He sighed, "Well, good luck to me."

If he had known what would happen, he would have chosen to look after the baby and let Phil face Anya alone.

Gaven thought his boss would call him and reproach him in a sarcastic tone. But to his surprise, Phil did not do so but called Anya directly.

Anya was serving herself a glass of wine and ignored her ringing phone.

Gaven glanced at the caller ID, Christina's daddy, on the screen and was amused by the lovely name. He thought Anya was quite cute.

It was not the proper time for him to laugh. He hurriedly reminded Anya of the phone call, "Miss Willigen, your phone's ringing."

"Yeah," Anya replied idly, but she did not pick up the phone.

Anya had seen the call but refused to answer it deliberately because she knew why he called her. He must want to pick with her for the video of Gaven and her standing closely. She did not give a shit about him.

Still, he was in no place to meddle in her business.

Since he wanted to break up with her, Anya could do whatever she liked. Phil could not lecture her or discipline her!

At the same time, Gaven was worrying aside. As he found Anya ignored it deliberately, he had to send his boss a message sneakily, saying, "Mr. Henderson, Ms. Willigen seems to be ignoring your calls on purpose."

Anya's phone stopped ringing and Gaven received a voice message, "Tell her, Chris is crying and I can't make her calm. Please tell her to be back. I think she is looking for her mom."

Hearing the voice message, Gaven smiled lightly. What a clever trick! If Anya got this news about her daughter, she would definitely leave her wine aside and rush home.

How wise his boss was!

Then, Gaven reported what Phil said carefully, "Um... Ms. Willigen, Mr. Henderson called you for Miss Henderson's sake."

Since the baby was born, Gaven, together with the whole staff in Phil's office, had called her "Miss Henderson", which showed their respect for her. That was because Phil cherished his little daughter. On hearing about her daughter, Anya looked up and asked, "What happened to the baby?"

Gaven went on, "Mr. Henderson said Miss Henderson kept crying and he couldn't calm her down. He held that Miss Henderson missed her mom, so he asked you to go back home."

"What?" As she heard her daughter kept crying, Anya became uneasy and lost the ability to distinguish between true and false. After an instant checkout, she left with Gaven. Gaven, of course, was willing to go.

"Wait a second."

When Anya went into the car, she sobered up and calmed down.

She stopped Gaven from starting the car and said, "Let me call Phil first."

Gaven ceased his action of grabbing the wheel, grumbling in his mind. 'If his boss gets caught in a lie on the phone, I have to continue to accompany Miss Willigen in the bar, right?'

'What a clever lady Anya is! Maybe she has realized that she is deceived.'

What Gaven thought was true. Anya knew how shrewd Phil was. He had plenty of tricks to be used on her. Therefore, Anya gave Phil a video call.

He said the baby kept crying, didn't he?

She would see if he was telling a lie.

In Anya's opinion, Phil probably lied to her to let her leave the bar and stop drinking.

To Anya's great astonishment, when the video call went through, she heard her daughter crying and Phil who was frowning appeared on the screen.

Phil asked calmly, "Are you coming back?"

"Let me see the baby," ordered Anya, her teeth gritted.

Poker-faced, Phil turned the camera to the daughter in the bed who was crying and kicking her legs. "Since she woke up, she has been crying. I've tried everything to soothe her. I don't know what else I can

do."

The crying made Anya anxious. She tapped the back of the driver's seat, motioning Gaven to drive the car to Phil's house quickly.

In the video phone, her daughter was really crying, which meant Phil did not deceive her. Anya wanted to go back as soon as possible.

But she questioned Phil on the phone, "Phil, you didn't beat her, did you? Did you do it on purpose?"

Though she believed that Phil would not beat the baby, Anya could not stop being skeptical of him, because she regarded him as a madman who would do anything to stop her from drinking. Using their daughter was the only method to achieve his goal at present.

Phil was exasperated by her words and he defended himself in a reproachful tone, "Anya, do you think I'm such a brutal man? How can I beat our baby?"

How dare she say it!

Perhaps Anya had realized her words could not hold water, so she hung up the phone guiltily with a snort.

Phil admitted that he did play a trick to stop her from drinking, but he did not beat his baby.

The baby was the apple of Phil's eye. How could he hurt her or beat her or make her cry?

In fact, it was his beloved baby that cooperated well with him by crying when she woke up.

Phil did not soothe her at once but used her crying to deceive Anya. After the phone was hung up, he held her into his arms and lulled her and the little girl calmed down instantly.

Phil was a bit worried as he saw the baby's loveable face.

He just told Anya he used all means but could not soothe the baby.

How could he explain to Anya when she went back and saw the quiet baby?

Just let it be. As long as she did not drink outside, it was OK if she got angry with him. Just let her beat him to vent her anger.
