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
Anya’s POV:The car was slowly driving out of the garage. The reporters followed it out of the parking lot. Even if we could only take a photo of the side profile of the person involved, this kind of news would still attract a lot of traffic.Coral came into the office and replied, “Mr. Carter, the reporters have been lured away!”“Okay, I got it.”“Honey, let’s go!” Evan smiled dotingly.I tried to retort, but in the end, I held it in. Moreover, I was in a hurry to go home, not in the mood to argue with him.When we came out of the staff passageway, Evan drove a backup car!I got into the passenger seat. After I fastened my seat belt, I could not help but massage my sore waist and neck, “I am so tired!”After Evan started the car, he looked at me. “Are you tired? I will give you a massage when we get back.”I rolled my eyes and thought that he was j
Zachary’s POV:Tears streamed down Jenny’s face as she looked at me in disbelief. “You are so horrible. How can you do that? I can;t see you do it. I am going to tell Evan…”Seeing this I panicked, “Jenny! Put it down quickly and stopped causing trouble.”Evan was not in prison yet. If he found out the truth, the consequences would be unimaginably terrible.Seeing that Jenny was about to run out, Tina picked up the vase beside her and smashed it hard on the back of Jenny’s head.“Bang!”“Ahh…” Jenny groaned. Her vision turned blank, and then she fell heavily on the ground.Dark red blood instantly flowed from the back of her head.Seeing my sister get hurt, I was easily frightened out my wits. “Jenny! Jenny! Tina, she is my sister. How could you hit her so hard?”Tina looked innocent. “If I don’t do anything to her. She will ruin our plan. If she spreads our secret, Evan won’t let us off.”“But you can’t hit my sister so hard.” I felt frightened, but when I saw the blood on the ground
Tina’s POV:After a hot battle, Zachary was so tired that he collapsed to the side.I looked at him in disdain, and my heart was fully despised.Although he was a playboy, he had always played with too many women. So, his body had long been overdrawn.He could not satisfy me at all.I was purely using him against Evan.I got up on Wednesday to the bathroom to take a shower. I turned on the tap and washed the traces he left behind in disgust.“Hmph, what a waste of man. A loser? So obsessed with that thing. How disgusting.” After cursing in my heart, I fiercely rubbed my body.Other than hitting Evan, I also missed Paul. I missed the satisfaction and the joy that he had brought me.Unfortunately, he was sentenced to 20 years in prison. I could no longer find a love for who understood me as well as Paul.After showering, I wrapped my hair in a towel and came out of the bathroom.The spacious and luxurious office became a paradise for the two of them. Most of the time, employees rarely c
Author’s POV:The reporters were interviewing when they saw Liam and his assistant walk out of the company.They swarmed towards Liam again, “Mr. Miller, may I have a word with you?”Dozens of microphones were handed over, and more than ten bodyguards stepped forward to stop them. Unfortunately, they were outbound and could not resist their reporter's madness.“Mr. Miller, it heard that Mr. Carter voluntarily resigned from the president’s position. What do you think about this?”“Will Mr. Carter pass this position to you?”“Did Mr. Carter pass the president position to his ex-wife? Is that true?” The reporters were bombarded with questions.Lima's face was dark, and they didn’t say a word. Surrounded by the bodyguards, he finally passed through the crowd and made his way into his car.Reporters for broadcasting live and were even dying to be the first to report the latest news.“The Carter Group's President Evan Carter resigned voluntarily and will face 20 years in prison.”“Evan’s Ca
Evan’s POV:My heart ached even more, and tears warmed up again.No one could keep clean in the dirty business world, let alone stay out of trouble.The punishment for my crime might be severe or light. I could be sentenced to death or to be considered not to have committed a vicious crime.It was up to how the lawyers would fight for it. It would be best if I could be out of the hook after paying some fine.If it could not be solved by money, I would ask the lawyer to help me get a lesser charge so that I would be released from jail a few years earlier.“Don’t ask me anymore. It’s not good for you to know too much.”She sniffed and punched me twice. “Evan, you bastard! Why do you always make me cry?”“Stop crying. This is not the time to cry. Don’t worry. I will be in jail for a few years at most. I will be out soon. Be good when I am not around.”Anya didn’t answer and cried more bitterly.I raised my eyebrows slightly and joked around with her. “If I am only sentenced to three or f
Author’s POV:The face of the Liam, who was sitting below the stage, stiffened, and a complicated look flashed across his cloudy, gloomy eyes.Evan handed the Carter Group to an outsider rather than to his uncle.He couldn’t understand or accept this.No one expected Evan to suddenly make such a decision.“Mr. Carter, you must be kidding.” Everyone’s expectant gaze instantly turned into contempt for Anya.They admitted that Anya was not an ordinary woman. Otherwise, she should not have been able to get the man who was as brilliant as Evan and Kester so obsessed with her.It was not because she was outstanding at work.Moreover, she couldn’t run a small company like Walter Group well. How could she manage such a huge company like Carter Group?“I am not joking. If I am no longer around, Miss Walter will be your chairman and take over my work.”“I will temporarily transfer all my authority to Miss Walter.”Everyone looked at each other. their eyes popping out in shock.Liam’s POV:My fa
Evan’s POV:The shareholders and executives were talking about me in the conference room.“Mr. Carter was released on bail yesterday. He should come to the office today, right?”“Mr. Carter is already at the office. I just saw his car outside!”“So much happened recently. Mr. Carter’s detention caused quite a stir. Countless reporters are waiting downstairs.”“That’s right! I wonder how the Carter Group will keep going on if Mr. Carter…” A shareholder paused for a while before he continued hesitantly. “What if Mr. Carter goes to jail, who will take over the Carter Group? Well, it's just the hypothesis.”“Whoever has the most share will take over.” Another major shareholder blurted out.Everyone discussed uneasily as if I was doomed to go to jail.White they were discussing; I pushed open the door of the conference room and appeared in front of everyone with a gloomy face and scanned around coldly.The originally noisy conference room instantly fell silent. Everyone sat up straight in
Anya’s POV:After Evan finished the food on his plate, he used his spoon to scoop a dumpling from Jerry’s.Jerry pouted and protested. “This is mine. Dad, don’t snatch it from me.”“Dad, you can have mine!” Flora immediately pushed her plate to her Dad.“Unlike these two brats, my daughter cares about me the most!”“Dad, you can have mine.” When Jason and Jerry heard this, they quickly pushed their dumplings to Evan.Evan smiled, “It’s okay! I was just joking with you.”I was happy to see Evan interact with the kids at the dining table. It was great that the Carter family became deadly again.Severants’ POV:We looked at them outside the dining room and were dumbfounded.“Tsk, tsk, tsk! Mr. Carter is particular about food. I didn’t expect him to like spaghetti and dumplings so much.”“We can cook these two staples more often for him in the future.” a chef said.The other chef rolled his eyes, “Forget it. Mr. Carter liked them because they were made by Mrs. Carter. He won’t want us to
Evan’s POV:While we were talking, Jason and Jerry returned from Kindergarten.The boys was stunned when they saw me standing in the courtyard. They thought they must be seeing things.“Dad, you are finally back.” Jason and Jerry said in unison and ran towards me.Then, they hugged my leg from both sides.I looked blankly at them, feeling flattered.These two have never treated me so warmly. Compared to the other two kids, Jason was more reluctant to get close to me.But now, he took the initiative to hug my leg!“You two brats, let go of me!”“No, we won’t!” The kids refuse to loosen their grip, as if I would disappear if let go of me, Their eyes turning red.“What’s wrong with them?” I looked at Anya in a daze.Anya’s eyes also turn red. “The kids are happy to see you.”“Really? I am so glad they finally started caring about their Dad. Good. I didn’t raise them for nothing.” I smiled faintly as he patted my son's head.I then bent down and picked them up.The two boys were already m
