Anna Dove Garrison

The preparation for Evelyn's launch party was going on in full swing. Now Cara and Evelyn was out shopping for some necessary stuff. Suddenly they saw a girl cornered by two dudes. The girl looked strong not backing down but the two dudes were looking like bad news. "Oh shit! We need to save her" These words escaped Evelyn's mouth making Cara frown. "What?" She asked. Evelyn's eyes fixed on the girl replied "That girl" she point at the girl cornered by the two dudes. Cara's eyes followed that direction and she widened her eyes seeing the guys closing in.

"Oh Shit! SECURITY!!" She screamed and Evelyn ran towards the boys with a random stick she picked up! This attracted the attention of many people. The security came running and caught the two boys dragging them out. Meanwhile Evelyn and Cara were standing side by side with the girl! "Sick bastards" Evelyn muttered under her breath. The girl turned to them and said "Thank you for showing up! I was actually getting nervous" Evelyn smiled and replied "No biggie! After all we can only support each other everytime!" The girl smiled and said "Hello my name is Anna Dove Garrison."

"Garrison" Evelyn muttered. "It's nice to meet you.. um?" Anna asked. Evelyn quickly replied "Evelyn Blackwood and this is my friend Cara" Anna asked them "Wanna join me for some snacks? I don't have any friends here I just got back from France. Can we be friends actually?" Evelyn was going to say something but Cara replied "Of course let's be friends!!" They smiled and looked at Evelyn with hopeful eyes. Evelyn smiled back and nodded. They walked into a restaurant. "I studied software engineering and my dad owns the Garrison industry" Anna made small talks with Evelyn and Cara.

The environment was friendly. Evelyn realised Anna isn't bratty like her brother. She relaxed a little. Cara replied "That's amazing! So now you'd join your dad's company?" Anna smiled and looked down "I am actually working on my own software. I think I can release it soon!" Evelyn suddenly put her hands in her purse and replied "Since we are now friends I'd love to invite you to the launch party of my fashion line" Anna's eyes brightened up. She excitedly replied "Really?!" Evelyn and Cara had smile on their faces. Cara replied "Of course! You're our friend now so!"

"A formal invitation was sent to your family. But special invitation for you!" Evelyn added. Anna looked at them with a cheeky grin. "I got a new evening dress! Now I know where to wear it!" She exclaimed and the girls giggled. Evelyn said nonchalantly "I'll look forward to seeing you at the party" They had their food and their was a small argument regarding who would pay the bill. But Anna eventually manage to win the argument and paid the bills. "Give me your numbers and Insta!" Anna said as she gasped remembering it suddenly" "Sure sure!" Evelyn replied!

After exchanging contact, they parted ways. Anna went to her car. She just got back but didn't go home yet. She first went to shopping. She was the only daughter of Garrisons and younger sister of Cole. As her car stopped, she ran into the house. "Mom! Dad!! I am home!" She yelled and entered into the living room. The servants were carrying her bags inside. Lila Rose came out of the bedroom looking surprised. "Anna!?" Her eyes got teary at the sight of her daughter. "Momm!" Anna rushed to hug her mother. "How is my daughter?" Lila Rose asked.

Victor Garrison and Cole came out of the office hearing all the chaos. The men widened their eyes seeing Anna Dove there. "Anna!! How did you come!" Victor asked as Anna went to hug her dad and brother. "Right! You should have told us you're coming! We'd pick you up!" Cole added. Anna smiled sheepishly and replied "If I told you it won't be a surprise! So I called driver uncle directly" Victor looked at his daughter surprised "When did you get that cunning?!" Anna giggled and replied "I made new friends in the mall—" Cole asked frowning "What mall?"

Anna smiled coyly and replied "I saw a dress I loved so I entered the mall to get it before coming here" Cole widened his eyes. "Are you for real?" he asked scolding. Anna rolled her eyes. "Did you just scold me? I just got back from France!!" She complained dramatically. Lila chuckled and said "Okay go to your room and freshen up. Come downstairs and eat something okay?" Anna replied with a dramatic salute "Yes Mummm". With that she ran to her room. Victor Lila and Cole chucker at her antics. "Finally she's back!" Lila Rose Garrison smiled warmly.

After 30 minutes, the Garrisons were having coffee in their living room. There was a silence in the room until Anna broke it saying "Oh by the way, I made a new friend" Cole and their parents looked at her. "Who is it?" Lila Rose Garrison asked with a chuckle. "Her name is Evelyn" Anna replied enthusiastically "she is an entrepreneur" She said with a toothy grin. Victor thought for a while and asked "Evelyn Blackwood? The kid who opened the EL Fashion?" "That's right dad!" Anna replied. Lila Rose Garrison chimed into the conversation "Ladies were talking about her."

Victor and Cole looked at her with interest as she continued "Apparently she took a important project from Augustus Wellesly." Cole looked at his mom surprised "Really? She did that?" Lila nodded "She did. Good for her. Never liked that man anyways" Victor continued to drink his coffee listening to the conversation. Anna replied "Lol its... Whatever I am just glad I have a occasion to wear my new dress! Both Evelyn and Cara are really nice" The Garrison family just smiled fondly at their daughter's antics. Cole received a call. "Oh its Will! I'll take the call" He left.

Anna looked at him leaving, and then looked at her mom and asked "Is that idiot still dating that Olivia?" Lila Rose Garrison sighed and replied "No. That girl apparently cheated on him. That's what Cole said" Anna rolled her eyes "What an idiot" she shrugged "Not like no one warned him! But whatever tho!" She sipped on her coffee. Cole came back. "Ah this boy won't even listen" He groaned. "I told him no need to return the money he took from me but he won't listen" He continued to complain. "Such a righteous young man!" Lila replied fondly.

Cole shook his head taking his cup of coffee in his hand sipping the leftover coffee. "He also got the invitation for the launch party" Cole added "Good thing. These business parties are boring. Now that he's here I won't be bored at least!" he said while sipping his coffee. Little did he know he'd not be bored at all. Instead he'd have so much fun!
