Anya’s POV:
After all, I had built a factory in M City and had already invested a lot of money. It was also because I had the Wind group and the Beta groups ordered that I was more confident.
But now the two companies had canceled 80% of their orders, the factory in X city alone could do it, and there was no need to build a factory in M city at all.
“How did this happen?”
“They said that there were too many negative impacts from the Walter Group. They were afraid that we won’t be able to rush through out the supply. Therefore, they canceled 80% of the order and continue to cooperate with the Carter Group!”
Hearing this my heart skipped a beat, and I weekly fell onto the chair.
Needless to say, it was Evan who was behind this.
If he didn’t put pressure on the Wind group and the Beta group, they would not be willing to bear the penalty of canceling the Walter group's orders.
It had to be
Anya’s POV:Hearing that, I was so angry that the pain shot through my heart, and my hand holding the phone was trembling.“Evan Carter, can you not be like this?”“Then, what do you want me to do?” Evan’s nasal voice was very heavy, as he sounded amorous.“I need to meet you.”“Give me a reason why should I meet you?”“I just need to meet you. There is no other reason.”Evan said playfully, “Perhaps, I can consider meeting you if you change the word ‘need’ to ‘want’!”I exhaled and suppressed my anger, “I want to see you!”“How much do you want it? Hmm?”His voice carried a hint of teasing, and his teasing was extremely infuriating.I could no longer suppress my anger and scolded, “Are you crazy?”“Yeah, what a clever girl! You even know that I’m crazy.”My patience has completely worn out. “Are you going to meet me or not? If not, then forget it.”“Is this the attitude of a person wanting to meet another? Who knows I might agree to meet you if you ask me in a nicer and gentle tone.”
Evan’s POV:Anya took a deep breath. It was as though her eyes were shooting flames as she pleaded. “Can you not suppress the Walter Group covertly?”“What are you saying? We are all businessman here, so there is no such a thing as suppression! Besides, you said, did yourself. It’s the client’s freedom to choose who they want to work with! Therefore, you should be questioning the Wind Group or the Beta group instead, not me!”When she heard those words, she choked in anger. “Alright, fine. You win. I’m done!”After swirling the wine glass a few times, I gently took a sip of the red wine.I smiled wickedly at Anya.I have been doing business since I was 15 years old. After so many years, I had long been honed into a cunning businessman.It was simply foolish for her to think that she could go against me. She overestimated herself. I could suffocate her with just a pinch of my finger.“This red Wine is not bad. Have a taste.” I said as I passed the red wine in my hand to her.However, s
Anya's POV:It was as if I was pressed under a mountain, and it fell as though all my bones of body were about to break.I know that this would happen if I met him alone. In this emergency, I had no choice but to not dare to resist anymore.I know that the more I resist, the more violent he will be.He would “torture” me like a madman.It was as I was expected.Seeing that I didn’t resist anymore and had given in, he stopped being so rough with me.After a while, he let go of me and started to unbutton his shirt.It is one opening for me.I immediately took a stun baton from my pocket! Then, I aimed it at Evan and electrocuted him!He was caught off guard and instantly felt jolts of electricity go through his body.I pushed him away with all my might and climbed down the sofa immediately.“Evan Carter, I won’t let you touch me again. And I will never give in to you!”After I finished speaking furiously, I didn’t bother to tidy my messy hair and fled out of the office in anxiety.After
Anya’s POV:I had run out of the Carter Group.Even though I had already walked out of the building, my heart was still pounding. I had almost been raped by Evan again.Thinking of the scene just now, I couldn’t help but feel a lingering fear. I know Evan could look and is aware that he would certainly not let the matter rest.I walked aimlessly on the street, my mind was in a mess.Beep, beep.Just then, my phone rang, which startled me.I took out my phone and looked at it. Fortunately, it was not Evan but Kester.I calmed myself down and answered the call. “Hello, Kester!”His soft and husky voice comes from the other on the line. “Anya, what are you doing?”“I’m not doing anything! What’s wrong?”“We have not seen each other for a few days. Let’s have a dinner together.”“Okay!”“Then, I will go to your company to pick you up in a while.”I paused and subconsciously looked at the surroundings of the high-rise building and felt dizzy for a moment.“No need. Where are you now? I wil
Anya’s POV:In the past month, I have been most afraid of running into reporters.Although I hid every day, I still came across reporters from time to time.It made me look like a thief when I went out now.“Sorry, no comment!” I said.A media reporter quickly extended a microphone to Kester. “Mr. Helsen, may I ask when your movie will be released? Besides, someone reported your media company for tax evasion. Is that true?”Kester’s face darkened. He looked straight at the camera and said, “Our company has never evaded taxes. The tax bureau is welcome to investigate at any time.”“So, when are you and Miss Walter getting married?” The reporter asked again.“What do you think about the relationship between Miss Walter and Mr. Carter?”“Have you always been protected Miss Walter?”The questions asked by the reporters were getting more and more harsh.“Get out of the way! Don’t ask me such a boring questions!”Kester was greatly infuriated. He protected me and squeezed out of the crowd.
Evan’s POV:At 9:00 AM, I arrived at the Walter group aggressively.Till now almost all employees were already there. So, as soon as I came over, they greeted me.“Hi, Mr. Carter!”Everyone seemed to be shocked to see me here.However, it’s normal for them, because I had not come to the Walter Group for a month.I entered the conference room.All the senior executives had arrived, except for Anya.“Where is Anya?” I asked.Daisy quickly got up and reported. “Miss Walter didn’t come to the company today.”Hearing that, I couldn’t help but frown. “Why is she absent from work again?”“Miss Walter has gone to M city.”“When will be she back?” I questioned.“Maybe in a week!”“In a week?” Hearing that, I frowned even more.“Yes, Miss Walter said that she would stay at M city this week. I will be in charge of conveying the work agreements.”Hearing that, I didn’t say anything, turned around, and left without looking back.As I went, I could hear employees whispering to each other.“Mr. Cart
Tina’s POV:I know that Evan had made a trip to the Walter Group so I called her.Less than five minutes after I ended the call, Mom called me.Ever since I moved into the Carter Mansion, Mom had been calling me three times a day.Seeing that it was Mom, I quickly picked up.“Hello, Mom!”“Hello, Tina!”“Mom, is something the matter?”Her concerned voice comes from the other end of the phone. “Tina, what are you doing?”“Nothing at all!”“Then, why don’t I go over and accompany you?” She asked.“All right!”Evan is slightly obsessed with cleaners and doesn’t like other people coming to his private residence.I had been living a more than ten days, but Mom had never come at once.An hour later, she came over eagerly.When she saw the luxurious mansion, her eyes lit up and she couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.“Oh, my, Ivan lives alone in such a big place! This house is too big. Its much better than ours! After you married to Evan, I will move with you.”Seeing this, I couldn’t h
Anya’s POV:I was just about to get in the car when a car approached us.The door of the car slowly opened.Evan got out of the car with a dark expression.He stood with his back to the light. Under the sunlight, he had a dark expression.“Anya!” he yelled.I looked at him and my heart sank. “Evan, why are you here?”He frowned and casually lit the cigarette. He snorted and said, “Why? Are you surprised to see me?”I was indeed surprised.I was even more surprised by the fact that he knew where I was. No matter where I went, he always managed to find me with unerring accuracy.I wondered if he could install the GPS tracker on my phone.“Evan, what do you want?” Kester also gets out of the car with a gloomy expression.Evan narrowed his eyes and looked at Kester disdainfully.Following that, he looked at me. “Looks like you really don’t take my words to heart!”Hearing that my face turned pale. “Evan, I am warning you. Don’t be so overbearing.”He said, “I will give you one last chance
Kester’s POV:I called the nurse.Soon, the nurse sent a wheelchair in!Miranda and Kelly helped Anya to the wheelchair.My legs were inconvenient, so I couldn’t help.“I can push Mr. Helsen; you can just need to follow the behind!”“Okay!” I had been in a wheelchair for nearly four months and gradually getting used to it.St Mary was a famous private hospital in X city.The environment here was very good. And all the facilities here were of the highest quality.There was a charming little garden that resembled an art park, featuring meticulously trimmed flowers and plants that were a delight to behold.Miranda pushed Anya around the garden.About ten minutes passed.In the corridor, coincidentally we met Evan.Author’s POV:Martha had been staying in the hospital for the past two days and was about to be discharged that day.Evan natural
Anya’s POV:I had been in the hospital for more than half a month. I had already woken up. I had also passed the critical period.After recuperating for some time, if nothing went wrong, I could be discharged.“Be good, have another sip!” Kester was holding a bowl of chicken soup and persuading me to eat more.“I am full! Kester, you still want to undergo leg rehabilitation treatment. You should hurry up and go back to G city.”He expressed his concern saying, “No, your injuries are quite severe at the moment. I will return once you are recovered!”While the two of us were engrossed in conversation. Miranda pushed the door open and walked in.“Anya, Mr. Walter is here!”His handsome face darkened. He frowned and said, “Why is he here again?”Miranda, not wanting Dad to visit, chimed in, “Do you really want to see him? If you prefer him gone, I will m
Frank’s POV:My second son has been more outstanding than my eldest son. He was smart and good at studying.It seemed that the Walter family’s remaining assets were better left to my second son.“David, when will you come back?”He paused briefly, contemplating the question, “That’s hard to say. If it was a brief, it could be around four to five days. However, if it is a long lifetime frame, it might be extended for one month or two.”I sighed heavily. “Then let’s talk about when you come back.”He looked curious. “What do you want to tell me?”I could not help but scold Harry again. “Sigh, ask your brother. Look what he did.”“Harry?”“He sold the house in S town and the two shops. He squandered them all! When you return, I will divide the property between the two of you. From now on, you will each be responsible for safeguarding your assets. If we don’t do it now, your brother will spend our well sooner or later.”“Oh!” He replied indifferently.He didn’t express any dissatisfaction
Author’s POV:They all died.At this moment, the other four realized what was going on and were shocked.They were pleading with the leader. They didn’t force him to split the money.But he shot.It was the same person who shot Evan just now.“Sometime, this is what happens!” The man with the pig mask slammed the gun on the table.His fierce temperament frightened everyone.“Do you have killed them?”“I told you, we are going to use this money for something grand! As long as you are part of my team, this money will grow exponentially in the future! Cars, houses, and women mean nothing. Don’t fixate on temporary pleasure!” The masked robber’s agitation grew with each word, his tone becoming frightenedly ferocious.Upon hearing this, the four robbers fell silent, refraining from saying anything further.A tall and lean robber suggested, “Well then, let’s stash away all the money for now!”“Boss, do you think Evan will involve the police? Perhaps, we should lay low for a while,” one of t
Evan’s POV:Very soon, Gael and Coral rushed over with some bodyguards!“Evan has been shot!”“Mr. Carter, Mr. Carter, how are you?”“I am fine!” I sucked in a sharp breath and staggered to my feet.Fortunately, I was wearing a bulletproof vest.I was shot four times in the back!Even though it didn’t penetrate, the pain was still intense. My back displayed four swollen marks as evidence of the shot.“Call the police now!”“Thank God, Evan… Boohoo…” Martha cried, and couldn’t catch her breath.This was an accident to her.She has been keeping a low profile and traveled around the world alone. Although she had met bad people, this was the first time she had been kidnapped.“Martha, they have not been done anything to you yet?”“No, I am just scared.”“Don’t be afraid, you are safe now!”“Let’s send Mr. Carter and Princess to the hospital!”Although Martha was now seriously injured, she got some wounds on her skin. I was also injured. We need to go to the hospital.Half an hour later, I
Evan’s POV:When the kidnapper heard, this he handed the phone to Martha.Martha’s panicked voice came from the other end of the phone. “Evan save me. I am scared. I don’t want to die.”My heart sank. “Martha, don’t be afraid. I am coming to save you!”“Yes, Evan, please save me. I want to go home. Boohoo!”Before Martha could say anything, the kidnapper gagged her again.After confirming that Martha was still alive, I felt a little relieved.“Mr. Carter, can you relax now? Your girlfriend is still alive and well. If you continue to hesitate, you can’t be sure what will missing from her body.”“Don’t hurt her. I am going to South Bridge now.”Twenty minutes later, I drove to the South Bridge again.The total length of the bridge was about a few kilometers. It was the X city sea bridge that connected V City and M City.Below the bridge was the sea.I waited on the bridge for more than ten minutes, but no one came.“Are they coming?” I thought as I looked at my watch. Another ten minute
Kester’s POV:“Hey! Hey!”I frowned. I hated Evan even more.I thought Evan was a heartless man who certainly be punished one day.Although Anya and woken up, she was extremely weak. She was still having a fever and her mind was a mess.“Jason, Jerry, Flora. I missed you so much…”I pushed the wheelchair to Anya’s bed. “Anya…”She looked up slightly and asked gently, “Kester, have you called him? How was it? Will he bring over my kids?”“Um…” My eyes flickered, not knowing how to answer.Looking at my troubled expression, she smiled sadly. She seemed to know that Evan had refused to let her see the kids.“How is it? When will the children come over? I really want to see children now!”My eyes darkened. I didn’t want anyone to be too disappointed. I was even more afraid that she would be sad when she heard that the children had not been sent overseas.“Anya, for now, you need to take care of yourself. I just asked the doctor, and he said that you need to rest well. Moreover, the childr
Evan’s POV:Around 9:00 PM, I returned to the Sherane Bay Villa in a heavy mood.I was worried about children’s safety now. I had to send them to a safe place.Upon spotting my return, the children hurriedly approached me to deliver the news. “Daddy, we have discussed crucial clue…”I looked at the children, my expression burdened. “Jason, Jerry, Flora, there is something I need to tell you about.”“Daddy, what it is?”“I want to send you guys overseas for a period of time. You are leaving tonight.”“Huh?” The three children looked at each other.Jason said solemnly, “Daddy, we have a big discovery. I have repaired the surveillance data. Look, this is the bad guy who planted a bomb in Mommy’s car.”I frowned and reached out to touch my son’s head.That becomes inconsequential.I was already aware that it was the same group who had planted the bomb in Anya’s car and abducted Martha.The most important thing was now to ensure the safety of the children.These Kidnappers seemed to be ver
Evan’s POV:I was preparing the cash.The number of money was too big, and the bank also needed time to prepare the cash.We had to go to different banks.It took more than a dozen assistants an entire due to raise the cash.With so much money added together, it weighed more than a ton. It was neatly packed into more than ten boxes.“Mr Carter, the cash is ready.”I took a look. The money was all in the passcode box and neatly placed in the truck!The money didn’t matter much to me.What saddened me was the loss of Precious Pearl and nearly three hundred carats of raw diamond!I spent nearly $600 million on them in the auction.Those two treasures were invaluable. There was the possibility I would never be able to retrieve them.Beep!The kidnappers called again.I calmly answered the call. “Hello!”On the other end of the phone, the sinister voice sounded as usual. “Mr. Carter, you are very cooperative. You didn’t call the police.”I spoke directly, “The money and items are prepared.
