Mdm MacMin felt much better after she hung up the phone. She thought she had almost got the


    things settled, and the malicious look in her eyes changed into a look of satisfaction.


    Melissa and Sydney stood at Mdm MacMin’s side. They also regained their good moods after


    hearing


    the talk between the two elders.


    Sydney hurriedly wiped the tears from her eyes and said, “Grandma, Mdm Welton has agreed to help


    us,


    right?”


    Mdm MacMin shook her head and let out a contemptuous snort. “How’s that possible? I can’t make it


    clear to her on the phone, so I’ll go to see her tomorrow. I’ll ruin Anya then.”


    Mdm MacMin said, and her lips curved into a triumphant smile.


    “Grandma, you need to make it clear to Mdm Welton,” Sydney said earnestly.


    “I will,” Mdm Welton looked affectionately at Sydney and said, “I’ll also persuade the Weltons to make


    you work in Welton Group again.”


    Sydney’s eyes glowed at the words. She rushed to Mdm MacMin and started to fawn over her,


    “Grandma, I love you. We can all rely on you. You’re awesome!


    “My grandma can address any problem. She’s a superwoman!”


    Mdm MacMin was quite delighted to hear the ttering words.


    Sydney was also happy to see her efforts pay off. She tried harder to fawn over Mdm MacMin and


    knew clearly that she could survive only through coaxing her grandmother into helping her. She knew


    she couldn’t have any unrealistic expectations of her good–for–nothing dad.


    Her dad was a useless man in her eyes.


    If she wanted to crush Anya, she could rely on no one except for Melissa and Mdm MacMin,


    Sydney ttered Mdm MacMin for half an hour, and then the three went to the dining room and had


    dinner together.

    When Mdm MacMin went upstairs to see Cornelius who was lying in bed, Melissa pulled Sydney


    aside


    and asked, “Sydney, do you think your grandma can tackle it?”


    dov


    She harbored no doubt about Mdm MacMin’s problem–solving ability, but things were quite different


    this time. Evan was involved, which make the situation much moreplicated.


    She thought things wouldn’t go quite smoothly.


    “Grandma is going to see Mdm Welton tomorrow, isn’t she? Do you think Mdm Welton will allow Evan


    to continue his rtionship with Anya if she knows Anya’s bad reputation?” Sydney stared at the wall


    and


    sneered.


    “I’m afraid that Evan will take sides with Anya,” Melissa said. She thought Mdm MacMin had


    underestimated the gravity of the problem.


    Sydney sneered. “It doesn’t matter if he takes sides with Anya. Does he dare to go against his


    grandma? Anya will be ruined tomorrow, and we can just wait and see!” she said triumphantly.


    “How dare she snatch Evan from me? I won’t spare her!” Sydney cursed inwardly.


    “I’m still a bit worried. I think we shouldn’t stake our fate on your grandma,” said Melissa. She knew


    Anya was not someone to be trifled with ever since she was forced to cut her finger in Anya’s face.


    She had thought that Evan wouldn’t bother with the domestic trifles of the Macmin family..


    But she hadn’t expected him to care much about them.


    So she felt the need to find another way out.


    “Mom, there’s no need to think that much.” Sydney had got sick of talking about Anya. “I don’t want to


    talk about her now. I’m going to have a rest upstairs.”


    Melissa knew it was Sydney’s blind faith in Mdm MacMin that had made her underestimate the


    gravity of the problem. She wanted to think up another way out, for she knew Mdm Welton may also


    take sides


    WILI Anya, one stopP


    “Okay. Go to have a rest now,” Melissa patted Sydney’s shoulder and said.
