Anya’s POV:As I looked at Evan's calm face, I wanted to slap him hard in the face!As I was cursing Evan in my heart, my father’s impatience voice fell into my ear.“Anya, if you sign in, I will let you be the chairman. However, I must warn you that I don’t think you can fulfil that promise. By then, you will lose everything and bring more shame to the whole Walter family. Then that time comes. I will cut off from you as well. Of course, if you give up the shares right now, you will still my beloved daughter. And as your father, I will certainly treat you well!”It would not need to be genius to know what he was implying.He was threatening me, that if I was determined to replace him, then he would cut off the father-daughter relationship between us.Suddenly, I felt a chill rising in my heart for no reason!First, it was the obstruction from my ex-husband, and now my father started morally blackmailing me as well.This is certainly a tough moment!“Fine. I will sign it.However, I ha
Mia’s POV:After getting rid of the security guards, I chased after Anya. However, as soon as I came out, I was surrounded by the reporters at once.“Mrs, Walter, can you tell us what has happened?” one of the reporters asked.Seeing the reporters, I took a deep breath as I didn’t want to ruin my fair lady image in front of the public. Then I said, “What happened is that we, Walter have raised an ungrateful girl who has turned her back on us today! She has no mercy even for her father!”“Mrs. Walter, what do you think of Anya’s relationship with Mr. Helsen?”“Rumors has it that Anya’s bought into Shining Star Media. Is it true?”“It’s her private business. You should ask her.” I said with a dark face as I was not in the mood for an interview. “Stealing men from other women and taking away properties from others. That kind of thing happens a lot. However, you need to see through all these. The Helsen family is a very respectable one. Will they allow a woman like that, to marry their fa
Anya’s POV:At the seven-star hotel.After leaving the Walter Group, I returned to the hotel, feeling exhausted.I had booked a suite here and had already paid for months. I also hired three nannies to look after the children.It was not that I could not afford a house. However, at that moment, the convenience of the hotel was more important to me!“Mommy, you are back?”As soon as I opened the door, the two little fellows ran toward me.“Yeah, Mommy is back!” I bent down to stroke my son’s head first then changed my slippers.“And Ora, how is she?”“Ora has just woken up!”“Okay, Mommy is going to check on her first, alright?”Then, I changed my clothes, washed my face and hands, disinfected myself, and went to my daughter’s room.“Ora, Mommy’s home!”“Mommy!”The little girl was lying on her bed. As soon as she saw me, a bright smile appeared on her skinny face.Ora had been hurt by a congenital heart defect and hemolytic anemia ever since she was born. The hemamebas in her body wer
Anya’s POV:Buzz… buzz…As I was sleeping, my phone suddenly rang.I picked up my phone on the bedside table. It was Kester!“Jester? What are you calling me for this hour?”On the other end, the line Kester’s worried voice replied, “Anya, have you seen the news?”“What news?” I rubbed my eyes, confused.“Check on your cellphone and read the entertainment news!”Hearing that my heart skipped a beat as I had a very bad feeling about this.I still remember how badly I had been roasted six years ago. Back then, I was still that innocent girl, and even thought about jumping off the roof to end my life. I prayed that it would not happen to me ever again.I shivered and unlocked my phone. And in an instant, more than five notifications popped up. And they were all about me.“After hooking up with her brother-in-law and getting kicked out, Anya Walter has moved to her next victim!”“The former lady of X city fell out with her family for inheritance. Her father was kicked out of the board, an
Evan’s POV:I left for my office early in the morning. I wanted to take care of my business affairs first before going back to my game with Anya.When I entered the meeting room, all the executives of the group were already sitting tightly with grim expressions on their faces.“Good morning, Mr, Cater.”As soon as I entered, they all greeted me.“Let’s get started!” I said as I stopped at the end of the long conference table and sat down.My secretary turned on the projector in a hurry and then served me a hot cup of coffee.One after another, the executives also turned on their laptops, ready to take notes!“We will focus on three aspects today, and…”I said as I opened my laptop, but my voice broke the next second.As soon as I opened the laptop, a picture popped out.Moreover, my laptop was connected to the projector so everyone in the room was now looking at a naked picture of a man on the big screen!‘What the hell!’All executives exchanged shocked glances and some of them were,
Evan’s POV:As soon as I entered the elevator, my eyes fell on Anya and Kester, who were standing at the side.At the movement, Kester’s arms were surrounding Anya’s shoulder. They look like a sweet, intimate, and perfect couple!Seeing this my face turned cold.“Anya Walter! What do you think you have done? You think you little prank will work without everything out?”Anya frowned deeply as she looked at me with her puzzled eyes. “What are you talking about?”I sneered at her, “Yeah, like you don’t know! Nice try! You know what? I could charge you for stealing information from the Carter group right now. That’s enough to put you behind bars for eight or ten years!”Anya’s face fell as she looked at me in confusion and asked, “I don’t understand any of that. You are going to charge me for what?”Huffing I grabbed Anya by the jaw! “For trespassing! For hacking into properties! For stealing my business information!”This seemed to irritate Kester as he pushed me away and said coldly, “I
Evan’s POV:I didn’t expect that being tugged on my tie by her like this, give me an erection. It seemed as if my body was still missing her. Hence, I didn’t break free, instead, I stepped forward a little and pinned her body against the conference table!Though I hated this scheming bitch to the core, I just couldn’t help myself to have a physical reaction when I was with her.“Ha, like it wasn’t you who photoshopped my nude photo,” I said.Anya took a glance at the nude photo on my phone and snorted with a sneer. “I am not that bored. And if it was me, I would have done the photo much better!”Hearing this, I snorted even louder. “Who knows if you had done lousy work on purpose? After all, you have a record. Isn’t that kind of your specialty?”Anya looks utterly furious. “I tell you one last time. I have never plotted against anyone. I have never… managed to sleep with you. I was framed. Believe it or not, I don’t care!”I leaned over the conference table, trapping her there. “It do
Evan’s POV:These four years of separation had tortured me like hell. I tried not to think of Anya, but she and her body haunted me day and night…So, the only thing I wanted to do right now was to conquer her.However, as I was about to get what I longed for, the rapid and loud knocks on the door interrupted me.‘What a bummer!’ I cursed.Then, I let off Anya at once.“You stay here and don’t go anywhere!” I ordered as I tidied up my clothes hastily.Then, I walked out of the door as if nothing happened.“Tina? What are you doing here?” I asked, resuming my usual demeanor.“I came to see you. I heard you were going to sign a contract with Anya. So, I decided to stop by.” Tina replied, with a sweet smile on her face.Then, she looked in the direction of the bathroom and asked, “Where is Anya? Isn’t she here?”Hearing that, I frowned. “The contract is signed. Let’s go now.” I said, putting my arm around her shoulder.Just then, the bathroom door opened, and Anya stormed out of it, stra
Jenny’s POV:Ten minutes later, Jimmy entered the office with Marlowe.Marlowe walked in and looked at the mess on the ground. He teased, “What, who provoked Miss Gracia?”I rolled my eyes coldly and growled, “What brings the prestigious President Yanice here today?”A sly look appeared in Marlowe’s eyes as he said in a glib tone. “Miss Garcia, long time no see. I miss you.”I snorted, “If you have something to say, just say it.” I rolled my eyes arrogantly and impatiently.Marlowe might be one of the wealthy second generation, but he was not popular in the elite circle of the rich second generation.After all, Marlowe had been imprisoned for nine years. Moreover, his reputation was not good. The elite circle of affluent second generation was not very willing to associate with him.“Look at what you are saying, Miss Garcia. You are so distant…”
Anya’s POV:I frowned. “Evan, are you serious?”He looked solemn, “Of course. There is a piece of land in the back of the house that was bought a few years ago. It had just been used. It come handy now. We will build children’s playground for our children to play.”I frowned and looked at Evan, transfixed.“Also, I have thought about it. My next step is to invest in a school.”As he spoke, Evan touched his chin and said regretfully, “Tsk. Why didn’t I think of investing in this sector in the past? If we had invested earlier, it would be more convenient for the children. However, it's not too late. When they go to middle school and university, it will come in handy. I have already thought about it. When they were in middle school, I would send them overseas for education. During vacation, they can come back to X city for private classes.”I was completely speechless after heari
Anya’s POV:I was thinking silently on the hospital bed, not reacting to him. After receiving utensils from him, I ate mechanically.If I left him, I needed money.I plan to sell the properties in M city and Green town. At the same time, I would also sell the properties overseas.Evan had once given me black card. I had used part of it, but there was still over $20 million on it.I could use this time to cash out all these things and then choose the right time to leave him.Seeing that I only ate rice and didn’t pick any of the other dishes, Evan leaned over and peered at me few seconds. He asked suspiciously, “What’s wrong? Why do you look like this? Are you feeling unwell?”“I am fine. It’s just that my calf hurts a little,” I replied quietly.“I will call the doctors and tell them to prescribe you some painkillers.”“No need. It's not good to take too many painkillers!”When Evan heard this, he held my hand again. “Anya, I am sorry. I won’t force you anymore. If there is anything,
Anya’s POV:I didn’t reply. Due to the anesthetic, I was in a daze. I turned over slightly and continued sleeping.At 6:00 PM, Miranda came to deliver dinner with one servant.Jason, Jerry, and Flora all followed.As soon as the three children entered the ward, they couldn’t help but ask, “Mommy, do you have a baby?”I looked at my children and hesitated.The three little fellows didn’t know that I had experienced the moment of life and death when I jumped off the house today. They thought that it was only because I was pregnant that I was hospitalized.Of course, it was also because Evan ordered not to let anyone tell the children that I had jumped today.“Mommy, can I look at your belly?”“Is Mommy going to give birth to a little sister or brother again?”Evan replied on my behalf. “That’s right! Are you happy?”“Yes, if Mommy gives birth to a baby, will she still love us?”“Silly, of course!”Jason grinned, “I want a little sister.”Jerry chimed in, “I want a sister, too!”“Mommy,
Evan’s POV:What a surprise.I had wanted to have another child, but Anya refused. The last time Anya accidentally miscarried made me feel heartbroken.It was great that she is finally pregnant again.In the ward, I could not contain my joy. “Anya, are you awake?”Anya was lying on the hospital bed. Her calf was already injured, and she was a little out of her wits.I have forgotten about the conflict and argument just now. I excitedly shook Anya’s arm, “Anya, I have some good news for you.”Anya’s face was numb.I continued, “The doctor said that you are pregnant? We are having another baby.”Anya’s POV:When I heard this, my eyelids dropped slightly, but I still didn’t reply.The child came at the wrong time. I didn’t want to give birth to his child again.Evan buried his head in my belly, sticking close to this unborn child. “Anya, are you happy?”“I hope this child is a girl so Flora can have company. However, it doesn’t matter if we have a boy. Anywhere, the more, the better. Aft
Anya’s POV:I was still in a mental breakdown. What Evan said was completely unbelievable.After a few seconds, the blackout in her head dissipated. “Evan, don’t force me. I want to leave this place. Let me go. If you don’t let me leave this place, I will die now!”“Anya, don’t be rash. Think about the children. Can you bear to leave the children? If you die, what will happen to the children? Can you bear to see them without a mother?”I was stunned and calmed down.If I die, the children will certainly be very sad.However, if I stayed here, I would certainly die.“Evan, I want a car. Let me go. I am leaving now. Give me a password and identification…”“Anya, don’t push your luck!”Evan subconsciously took another step forward.Seeing him move, I panicked even more. “Don’t come over. Don’t come over!”My emotions turned increasingly unstable, and my hoarse roar made me black out and fall out.“Ah!!”Evan’s POV:“Anya…” I cried out in surprise. I rushed forward and grabbed the handrai
Anya’s POV:Footsteps sounded outside the door.My heart tightened. Evan seems to be back. I will hang up first.”As I spoke, I hurriedly hung up the phone.At the same time, the door was kicked open.Evan walked in with a gloomy expression. “Anya, who are you talking to?”“No, no one.”“No one?” Evan’s eyes were filled with a sense of murder.“Give me your phone.”“I really didn’t…” Fear appeared in my eyes.Evan sneered and snatched my phone away.Evan’s POV:In the past month, I deliberately didn’t confiscate her phone to see if she could contact Kester.Of course, Anya’s phone had already been installed with this listening system. I would know if she called anyone.After reading the call log, I smile sinisterly. “Didn’t you say you have nothing to do with Kester? Why are you calling him now? Do you want him to save you?”Anya’s POV:Seeing this I retreated in fear.Looking at the fur in his eyes, I trembled.In the past month, my depression had relapsed again. I was struggling and
Anya’s POV:I know that he loved to speak in reverse.He was just provoking me by saying all of this.If I did, as he said, he might end up kidding me.“I’m talking to you. Can’t you hear me?” Having lost patience, he grabbed my collar, lifting me.I lifted my eyelids slightly, looking at him with exhaustion and indifference.“Evan, I am really tired. Can you just let me go?”Evan’s POV:My heart skipped a beat while my brows furrowed immensely.Meanwhile, my heart aches as well.I was not a narrow minded man, but when it comes to ambiguous relationship between Kester and Anya, I offered no room for tolerance.I couldn’t bear the thought of her having another man in her art, even if it was just a small fraction.Her beautiful eyes were now filled with endless sadness. “Evan, let’s let go of each other. I don’t want anything anymore, and I just want a little freedom. Please let me go. I am willing to give up everything, including the Walter group.”As her last sentence trailed off wear
Evan’s POV:Anya kept her eyes shut, allowing me to shake her,However, her response drove me to the brink of madness.She was like a flexible knife, seemingly harmless but capable of inflicting significant harm.She excelled at the silent treatment and disliked arguing with me.It seemed to me that no matter how angry or violent I became, she would retaliate in the gentlest yet most devastating way.It always drove me to the brink of madness, making me want to conquer her in bed.Anya’s POV:In the next few days, I continued suffering from high temperatures.Because of that, Evan, perhaps carrying a hint of humanity, did not punish me further.Besides, he had to go to M city to manage the Green Bay construction project, so he didn’t spend much time in X city.In other words, I had narrowly avoided a disaster.After five days of recuperation, my body had recovered to some extent. Although the fever had subsided, I felt mentally exhausted.However, there was no way for me to leave.She
