Kester’s POV:Stories about Anya had been cooked up and one by one, they were posted online.Overnight, the whole internet is full of the news about Anya.Every day, when Anya went to the office, she was surrounded by the reporters and strikes who were waiting for her in front of the Walter Group.I had advised Anya many times not to go to the company, but she still insisted on going to work daily.That day, early in the morning I went to meet Anya in her hotel with the bunch of flowers.“Oh, hey, Kester!” Anya greeted me as she opened the door with a spatula in her one hand. It seemed like she was cooking for her kids.Even though there are three nannies, Anya still cooks for her children from time to time.“Have you eaten anything? Sit down and let’s eat together.”Saying that she poured me a glass of milk and went to the kitchen to make another sandwich for me.I nodded, sat down, and started eating.To be honest, I had always hated sandwiches. However, since it was made by Anya, t
Author’s POV:The next day, someone posted something anonymously about Anya.“Three crimes of Anya Walter!”The title draws Netizens’ attention at once.There were thousands of words in the article.It recorded Anya’s whole life from her birth up until now.Especially in her teens, when she had returned to the Walter family Group and had been shunned by everyone, including Frank Walter who had never given her any fatherly love.This article seems to be criticizing Anya, while it allowed everyone to take a more global approach to this issue.Netizens’ opinions were not too easy to change, but they had already taken a glimpse of the full picture, which was the crucial first step.Not long after that, another shocking news was posted on social media.“An Easy Prey-The story of Anya Walter and her Blood Sucking Family!”It mainly talked about Anya’s mother.Even Frank’s background had been revealed in the article, too.It turned out that Frank was just Karl's adopted son and Anya’s mother
Tina’s POV:Soon, me and my mother arrived at the Cater mansion.It was located on a mountain near the coast.Although the mansion is old, it was one of the most expensive estates in X City.Even though the Cater family had countless properties all over the world, Old Mrs. Cater always lived in the old mansion.During the holiday, Evan also comes back here to live with his grandmother.We drove along the mountain, slowly getting into the lush greenery. Even the oxygen here was abundant and clean.X city was a very busy city, and the air pollution was also serious. Nevertheless, this place is like an isolated fairyland.As we reached at the gate, a handsome young guard stopped the car and asked warily, “What are you business here?”My mother rolled down the window hastily and said with a smile, “It’s me. I just got off the phone with your butler. I have an appointment with Old Mrs. Cater at ten o’clock!”“Oh, you must me Mrs. Walter,” the young guard said as he opened the door.Then, o
Evan’s POV:Both of us remain silent for quite a while.Then, I finally spoke first with an angry snort, “Grandma was the point of seeing her sons?”“Oh, you stupid child! Do the maths. Those two boys might be your children!”My jaw nearly dropped after hearing this. “What? No way! That impossible! I asked her, and she told me herself that they are not my sons.”“Alas! You don’t understand women at all. She hates you so much, and she might be saying that to simply make you mad.”“To make me mad?” I blinked stupidly.But then, it came to me. ‘Indeed, I had been quite awful to her, and it made sense!’“Anyhow bring the boys over first and take paternity test.” Grandma said, “If they are not your son, so be it. However, if they were your kids, they can’t wander alone out there without a father!”“Well, I see…”Anya’s POV:After the work of five days, I finally moved into my new apartment. After all, I can’t always live in a hotel, since I want to settle here with my kids.After I had cle
Tina’s POV:However, things didn’t go as we expected. On the next day morning, before these news stories could get out, accounts of the trolls hired by my mother were blocked.The public attention had shifted from Anya to a popular actress, Ellen Smith.She was a new star in Kester’s company, she won her first best actress award yesterday.Besides, Ellen just announced she had a boyfriend who was an accomplished actor.The news instantly rocked the whole internet.It caught the public’s attention.However, I know that it was nothing but just a marketing strategy masterminded by Kester’s company to protect that bitch.They just wanted to distract the public’s attention from Anya.“Mom, I told you. It doesn’t work.”Although she had spent a lot of money, it didn’t work at all.“Let me figure out another way to deal with her.” She said, gnashing her teeth in hatred.“Tina, Mr. Cater will be back soon. Get ready to pick him up.”“Remember to further your relationship. You have been dating
Anya’s POV:He didn’t take the business card and said sourly, “No thanks I will ask my assistant to inform you if there is something important.”I frowned and asked in a cold tone, “What is it you want to see me about?”Evan cleared his, throat seemingly embarrassed, and said, “Well, my grandma wants to see the two kids. So…”However, before he could finish his words, I interrupted him angrily.“Sorry, Mr. Carter! We can talk in the company if you want to discuss anything about work. I don’t think we need to meet in private. Besides, my kids are not obliged to meet strangers. Sorry, they can’t go see her.”I refused firmly.Grace is a shrewd woman.She must want to see the kids because she was already wondering if they were Evan’s kids. If she saw them, she would surely let Evan take them to do the paternity test.By then, it wouldn’t be easy to get the kids back.In anger, Evan hit the elevator wall and said, “Anya, don’t overdo it…”“Evan that’s what I want to say to you! We made a
Anya’s POV:I struggled desperately.Unfortunately, my resistance did not affect her. Instead, it brought more danger.“Evan, don’t… please…”His kisses were, fierce, hard, and aggressive.My shirt was torn.At that moment, fear overwhelmed me.This imperious man had been never gentle to me.When we were still married, he had already been so tyrannical.The harder it was for me to bear, the ruder he was.Seeing me in pain, he feels pleasure and satisfaction.“Let go him…”I struggled and bit him hard.The smell of blood filled in my mouth.However, instead of letting me go, he became even more fierce.Suddenly, I felt a pain in my neck as he was holding me so tightly.With tears streaming down from my face, I beat him feebly.I hated this terrible man very much.Till today, I still didn’t know why I had loved this man so much before.I even loved this heartless man from the bottom of my heart.My love for him has made me humble toward him whenever I face him.But this man… he had neve
Paul’s POV:Today when I received Tina’s call, I was flustered for a moment. Because recently, she had stopped looking for me.I liked Tina, but I knew that I was not good enough for her.I was already very content to meet her secretly like this.“Are you alright? Can you tell me what happened?” I asked more gently.Tina sneered, “What’s the point of telling you? You are just a gigolo.”Hearing that, I grinned and my posture and gestures became more wanton and provocative…“Oh, my God… Be gentle…”“I am a gigolo. So what?”I was infuriated by this remark and my moments became fierce. What’s more, I know Tina liked wolf-like men like me.And just as I expected, Tina indulged in it again.I know that I could give her nothing materially.Even the high cost of the Lily bar was far beyond my competence. Tina was the one who paid for it every time.However, I had an awareness of my advantages.So, I served Tina very well every time we met and let her fully enjoy the pleasure of being a woma
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.
