Chapter 872 Babe, It's Not Worth Getting Upset About

Anya felt depressed after she got out of the interrogation room.

She knew what life would be like for a kid growing up without a father.

He would be very sensitive and insecure.

Eudora was an example. Although things got better after she reunited with Evan, she had been very timid and sensitive before.

Thankfully, the good news was that Kevin chose not to frame Evan.

Since the charge against Evan was dropped, he was finally cleared.

Meanwhile, Cohen was acquitted as Paula was still in a coma.

They ran into each other at the gate. Cohen slowly walked to Evan and said, "How's the trip, Mr. Welton? Do you like the present?

"For the record, I haven't given up on Anya yet. Get yourself prepared!"

Such threatening words didn't provoke Evan.

He replied with a sneer, "Just bring it on!"

"You seem pretty confident. Are you going to pull out all the stops to get back at me?" teased Cohen.

Hearing this, Evan sneered again and responded with Anya in his arms, "Mr. Olson, you give yourself too much credit. I don't even bother to deal with you.

"But this time, I only give you two days. When time is up, you might end up in prison," Evan warned as he turned around and left with Anya.

His words left Cohen freezing up on the spot. The look on his face suddenly changed.

He kept chewing over Evan's threat.

It seemed that Evan had great confidence in taking him down.

He had to admit that the Welton Group was powerful, but he still thought that it would be no easy work to defeat him.

He decided to wait and see how would Evan get back at him.

...

At the same time, Evan and Anya arrived at the parking lot.

Before they drove home, Anya took a glance at Cohen and said to Evan, "Honey, what's your plan?

"Are you sure it's okay to let him go now? I don't think it's fair for Paula.

"She's badly injured and still in a coma. But Cohen acted like it had nothing to do with him. Even worse, he seemed proud of what he did. What a cold-blooded and selfish man!"

Anya couldn't figure out what was going wrong with Cohen.

He used to be warm-hearted and kind, but now he was like a completely different person.

Evan turned around and reached out to adjust her hair. "He has been doing some illegal business abroad and no one else has found out that. Plus, his design firm is suspected of overtaxing. The truth is gonna come out any second. By then, do you think he can escape from the prison?"

Anya was stunned. "That is to say, he will be under investigation for a second time very soon?"

Evan nodded and replied, "He could force Kevin to take the blame for him as for Paula's case. But tax evasion and other illegal businesses abroad would put him in prison eventually."

After he explained the situation, Anya felt upset. Then she sighed heavily and said, "He was not like this before. Everything had changed since he went abroad a few years ago. How did this come to be?"

"Honey, people can change. We can't expect others to be the ones we want them to be. He's not the same Cohen you know," Evan gently stroking her hair and comforted her.

"Cheer up, babe. It's not worth getting upset about. I'll take you to a private island after we sort this out."

Anya nodded and responded, "I hope that everything will get better after a sweet sleep."

Evan smiled and didn't say anything else.

In his mind, what was done could not be undone. Cohen would never go back.

The moment he committed a crime, he went on a whole different path.
