Anya’s POV:I smiled as my brows slightly furrowed. I felt an inexplicable pain in my heart, but it was only fleeting.I used to love him so deeply.Back then, all I got in return was humiliation and torture. So, I no longer dared to love him. I vowed never to love him again.I could never forget the pain he had inflicted on me.I know that he had never loved me, so I no longer long for him to love me.“I know that you have countless mistresses. There is no need to hold on to me.”With that, I walked away without looking back.“Anya you will certainly regret this!”With my back facing him, I sneered. “The only thing I ever regretted is loving you. Looking back, it was the worst time of my life. Its my greatest regret. A man like you doesn’t deserve any love!”Evan’s POV:Hearing her words my body filled with anger. I chased after her and forcefully pulled her back.“Anya!”“What now? Do you want to hit me? Go ahead, hit me! Anyway, this is not the first time you have hit me!”Hearing
Evan’s POV:In the past month, I didn’t visit Anya, nor did I look for other women.Now that I had eaten such a rich food one could imagine how much heat was trapped in my body.After dinner, I took a shower and got ready to sleep.As soon as I lay in bed, Tina pushed the door open and walked down.“Evan.”“Why did you come in?” I frowned.“I don’t want to sleep alone.”I didn’t respond. However, I didn’t turn her away either.Since the two of us are about to get married. There was no need to maintain any distance.Seeing this, I didn’t resist. She snuggled in my bed like a tame rabbit.She lifted the blanket and lay in my arms.“Evan, can we try again tonight?”I sneered. “Do you think I can’t do it?”“No, I didn’t mean that!” she looked nervous.I didn’t say anything else, turned around, and pressed her down with my body.I kissed her lips domineeringly.She shed all her pretense and was very cooperative.I was indeed feeling very irritable that night.I needed a woman.“Evan…” She
Anya’s POV:I choked when I heard this. I sniffed subconsciously. Fortunately, he didn’t smell the smell of alcohol.“You have not been drinking, have you?”He didn’t say anything and just kept accelerating!The car quickly drove towards the winding road up to the mountain.We are almost at the Emerald Mountain. At night, many couples would drive up the mountain to enjoy the night view.“Evan, where the hell are you going?”“You will know when we get there.”The winding road of the mountain circles around Emerald Mountain. The further up we went, the narrower the road became.Although Evan was very good at driving, I didn’t dare to say anything to avoid distracting him.Half an hour later, the car reached the top of the mountain and he finally stopped the car.The car was sparked by a cliff. Through the car window, I could see the night view of the entire X city.The lights are the foot of the mountain were bright and neon lights were flickering. It looked surreal and breathtakingly b
Anya’s POV:I also heard their conversation. I opened my eyes and looked at him coldly.“Evan, don’t you think you are disgusting?”He frowned but didn’t answer.I propped myself up and put on her torn clothes again.Although they are torn, I could still cover my body with them.“Anya, do you really think of me that way?”I tidied up my clothes and looked at him coldly. “You are about to marry Tina, and you still pressing other women. Do you think you are a scumbag?”He frowned and didn’t refute my words. “Whatever you say, as long as you are happy, you can say whatever you want.”I ran my fingers over my messy hair and moved slightly. My entire body was sore and incomparably painful. My head felt dizzy as It was about to explode.“Take me home!”“Anya, name your price.” After being silent for a second, he asked.“What do you mean?” I asked.He looked into my eyes. “How much money do you want to my lover?”When I heard this, my heart skipped a bit.It took me a while to recover. “Hmph
Anya’s POV:At 9:00 a.m., I arrived at the company. As usual, there was a pre-work meeting.“Miss water, there is not enough fund in the account of the factory in M city. The manufacturer wants us to pay the rest of the money first before they are willing to ship the rest of the products!”I frowned. “How much more do we need?”“About $4 million more!”“Got it! Tell the factory that I will transfer the money next week.”“All right, Miss Walter!”After hanging up, I couldn’t help her to hold my forehead in my hands.Not to mention $4 million, I couldn’t even fork out two hundred thousand dollars at this moment.Although there was $150 million on the card Evan had given me. I didn’t want to use his money.Therefore, I didn’t never touch his money.The company no longer had any money on the books. Mr. Patel and Mr. White were even more firmly against investing in the factory.I had already invested so much money in it. If I lost money, all the money I had invested would be wasted.More i
Evan’s POVAt noon, I happened to pass by the Walter Group.Just as I was about to get out of the car, I saw Anya and Kester walking out of the Walter Group building happily.Instantly, I felt as if someone had poured cold water on my head.“She still dares to be involved with Kester!”“Anya it seems like you really don’t take my words to heart. Will you only be in give in if I use a forceful approach!”“What do you want to eat?” Kester asked, looking at her gently.She smiled. “Anything. You can decide.”“Shall we have French cuisine?”“Sure.”The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked past my car.Seeing this, my face became cold.“Anya, I will certainly make you bed in front of me…”I didn’t get out of the car. I stepped on the accelerator and drove past her and Kester.Anya’s POV:“Be careful!”We dodged. The inertia of the car almost flipped us over.Kester supported me and cursed at the back of the car. “The driver is crazy. Does he know how to drive?”I looked at the li
Mia’s POV:After hanging up a phone my face filled with anger.“Have you decided?”Oscar and Wallace frowned. “We have thought about it. We will agree to your terms. We will finish Anya of.”Hearing that my lips curled up into a smile. “That’s right? This is the advanced payment of $4000. As soon as the slut Anya dies, I will transfer the rest of the money to your overseas account immediately.”“All right, it’s settled then.”I added worriedly, “Use your brains and be a professional. Don’t give yourself away!”“Got it!”“That’s settled then. I will leave now!” I picked up my bag and was ready to leave.Wallace stopped me with a smile. “Are you still not in the mood today? It's been a long time since we have had fun.”I rolled my eyes. “You are already in 40s and 50s. How can you still want to do it every day? You should get what is important done soon.”“Alright!”Without further ado, I opened the door and left.After leaving the door, I turned around and spat at the door.I hated the
Evan’s POV:The next day, I came back to the Carter Mansion with Tina.“Grandma, I bought Tina home to see you!”She was lying quietly on the bed. Because of her health, she was bedridden most of the time.Hearing my voice, she opened her eyes and said shakily. “Evan is here…”Tina went to the bedside and quickly took grandma’s, and she greeted her sweetly. “Grandma!”Grandma held our hands and put them together. “You have to get married soon. Grandma wants to see you get married. Have a child soon. Evan is not young anymore. Its time for you to have a child!”“Grandma don’t worry. You will certainly get to meet your great-grandson. I have discussed this with Tina. We will get married next month.”She took a deep breath and struggled to sit up. “When is the wedding?”Seeing this, we helped Grandma to sit up and quickly place the soft pillow behind the back.“The wedding is set for the 8th of the next month.”Hearing that a smile appeared on Grandma’s aged face. “Oh, I should be able t
Author’s POV:Half an hour later, Evan arrived at the Walter Group on time.“Hello, Mr. Carter, why are you here?”“I have an appointment with Anya.”“Oh, Miss Walter is in the office. I will bring you there.”Evan didn’t say anything and just strode toward Anya’s office.He was very familiar with this place and didn’t need anyone to lead me the way.“Oh my God! Why is Mr. Carter here?”“I don’t know. It’s amazing!”“Do you think Mr. Carter will help Miss Walter?”“That’s hard to say. If Mr. Carter is willing to help, our company will certainly be able to survive this!”“Let’s hope so!”Anya’s POV:“Miss Walter, Mr. Carter is here!”Daisy pushed open the office door. Her voice was filled with excitement.I also subconsciously stood up from my chair.Then, Evan walked in. As usual, he was wearing a nice suit and looked fabulous. He always looked so noble and elegant.“Evan, you are here…” I didn’t know what to say and could not help but feel nervous.Evan’s POV:I sized up Anya and fel
Anya’s POV:After the call, I felt even more despair.In a month, I couldn’t raise $600 million.Beep! Beep! Beep!Just as I hung up the phone buzzed again.“Hello, Ethan!”On the other end of the line, Ethan said in a heavy voice. “Miss Walter, when are you coming back? The company is in a mess now. Many employees are asking to resign. Also, our partners are requesting to terminate our contracts. Please come back quickly. The company really can’t hold on anymore!”“Okay, I understand. I will make time to go back in the next few days.”“Okay. I will try to comfort our business partners again.”“Alright!”After hanging up, I leaned against the hospital bed weekly and tiredly.The fact that Walter Group was about to go bankrupt made everyone panicked.Even if I sold all my properties, I would not be able to raise $600 million.I stayed in the hospital for another three days.Kester had been lying in the intensive care unit for 12 days.Today, after repeated examination, the doctor confi
Anya’s POV:Miranda came back after buying some food.Seeing me in a daze, she hurriedly went forward and asked, “Anya. What’s wrong?”“Something happened to the company,” I said as I pushed my hand into my hair.The Walter Group was already like a candle in the wind right now. Now, it was pushed to the center of this storm. It was very likely that the Walter Group would be destroyed.Especially at this time, I didn’t know where else I could raise so much money.Six hundred million dollars!With companies current stock value, even if I sold all my shares, I would not be able to raise $600 million.Miranda’s eyes darkened, “What happened to the company?”“In short, it's a very tricky matter. The Walter Group is very likely to be bankrupt!”“Is it that serious?” Miranda was also frightened.I didn’t speak, feeling lost and helpless.Miranda’s eyes turned red, “Anya, how much do you need? I still have ten thousand dollars here. Just take it first.”I smiled bitterly and leaned weekly on
Tim’s POV:The more I listened, the more irritated I became. These women only cared about money.If she didn’t mention money, the Helsen family would certainly not let her be short of money, because we were such a wealthy family. However, she kept asking for money by all means and didn’t actually care about Kester at all. Which was really repulsive.“Wait till the labor first! During this period, you are not allowed to go anywhere. You must stay here and wait for the delivery.”“Huh? I don’t think you should make me do that.”I completely lost my patience. I stubbed out the cigar in my ashtray and said to the bodyguard beside me, “Keep her under guard. If anything happened to the child, she doesn’t need to be kept alive anymore.”“Yes, Mr. Helsen!” The bodyguard said and went forward to snatch her arm.“Miss Ellen, please come with me.”She seemed to be in pain when the bodyguard snatched her. She blacked out and almost lost her balance.“Mr. Helsen, I will give birth to the child, bu
Evan’s POV:In the parking lot, I sat inside the car and smoked one cigarette after another.At this moment, I wanted to go up and see Anya. However, I was afraid of bumping into the Helsen family members.“Daddy, we are back!”“Mm-hmm, Let’s go!”The two little fellows got into the car, and the driver started the car and drove out of the parking lot.“How is Mommy now?”“Daddy, Mommy’s very sad!”When I heard this, a hint of disappointment appeared on my face. There was an indescribable feeling in my heart.Anya’s POV:After I recovered some of my strength, I immediately got off the bed.I intend to go to see Kester.When Miranda saw this, she hurriedly went forward to dissuade me. “Anya, your body is still so weak. Rest more. You have not slept for two or three days. If this continues, you won’t be able to take it.&
Anya’s POV:I don’t know how long I have been unconscious.I suddenly woke up from my dream, “Kester… Kester…”“Anya, you are awake?”“Mommy, you are finally awake!”I opened my eyes groggily. What greeted my eyes was Miranda’s anxious expression, as well as Jason and Jerry’s adorable faces.“Jason! Jerry! Why are you here?”“Mommy, you are finally awake. Daddy send us here.”Upon hearing this, I struggled to sit up.“Anya, you are weak now. You must not get up.”Jason said with his tears, “Mommy, what’s wrong?”“Don’t be afraid. Mommy is fine. Where is Flora?”“Flora is sick. Daddy was afraid that there would be germs in the hospital. So, he didn’t let Flora come here.”“Where is Daddy?”“Daddy is waiting d
Anya’s POV:In the blink of an eye, Kester had stayed in the intensive care unit for two days.I also have been keeping watch outside the door for two days. Other than Miranda staying back to company me, everyone else had gone back.Tim was also advanced in years and didn’t continue to keep watch over Kester eventually. However, he comes to the hospital visit every day.“Doctor, how is Kester? Has he regained consciousness?”“Not yet.”“Can I go in and see him?”“Not yet, for now!”When I heard this, I stumbled and almost lost my balance.Miranda hurriedly supported me, “Anya, how are you?”“I am fine. I am just a little dizzy!”“Look at you. How can you take it if you carry on like this? Before Mr. Kester wakes up, you wouldn’t be able to take it anymore.”I tried my best to support my body and said
Evan’s POV:I also heard the news as well.When I heard that someone had fired a shot at the wedding, I was also terribly shocked.“Someone fired a shot at a wedding. Is Anya okay?”Coral reported, “I heard that Kester Helsen took a bullet for Miss Walter. Miss Walter is fine now. Kester Helsen is seriously injured and still in the hospital undergoing treatment. It was said that the bullet was 2 millimeters away from piercing his heart. He is not out of danger yet. Even if he wakes up, he will probably remain in a vegetative state in the future.”Hearing that I couldn’t help her gasped.Initially, I thought that no one could love Anya more than me. Now it seems that Kester loves Anya more than me.If I were in Kester’s shoes, I probably wouldn’t have instinctively taken a bullet for Anya in such an urgent situation.“Then, how is Anya now? Is she very sad?”&ldq
Anya’s POV:“Kester! Kester!” My eyes instantly widened as I threw myself into his arms and shook his body.“Kester, wake up! You must pull through!”The ambulance whizzed through the traffic without stopping for a moment.Less than ten minutes later, the ambulance arrived at the hospital.“Someone has been shot! Doctors, save him quickly!”The bodyguard carried Kester who was covered in blood and rushed into the hospital.When the doctor and nurses saw this, they were also badly shaken! After all in society, it was rare for people to be shot by a gun.Soon, Kester was sent to the emergency room.I followed him all the way. The white gown I wore was already covered in blood. I sank on the bench outside the emergency room, as if all my muscles and bones had been extracted.I was about to have a relapse. The depression that had troubled me for many years made me extremely di
