Evan’s POV:I took a deep breath. “Anya, its not like this. There was a misunderstanding between us from the beginning. Why can’t you believe me?” I shook her shoulder and tried to make her believe me.At that moment, I suddenly remembered, how six years ago, she explained that she didn’t take the initiative to claim into my bed.However, I didn’t believe a word of it either!Now, after the two of us exchanged places! Only then did I feel how uncomfortable and disappointed this feeling was!“Can you give me a chance to explain?”She shrugged and said in a hoarse voice. “Evan, it’s over between us! Let’s draw a full stop between us!”“Impossible! Never! You belong to me, you can only belong to me for the rest of your life!”“You are the one who wanted to divorce, and you are the one who abandoned me. What do you want to do now? You want to
Anya’s POV:Evan carefully treated my wound and carefully bandaged it.“Don’t touch the water. Remember to change your dress every day.”I didn’t reply. My thoughts were brought back to your ears ago.Everything here was still the same. Even the half-use skin care product on the dressing table was still in its original position.Everything seemed like it had happened yesterday.Seeing me silent, he added in a muffled voice. “I’m talking to you. Did you hear me?”I held my breath, “I hear you.”“Alright, rest early.” He reached out and touched the top of my head.His actions were like patting his beloved pet.He doted on me but was also as high and mighty as a master.I was a little disgusted. I slapped his hand away with a cold expression. “You asked me to come over just to bandage my wound?”His lips curled up into a
Anya’s POV:“I don’t want to be angry with you. Why do you always have to challenge my bottom line?”I subconsciously took a step back. He covered me in the shadow. “What do you want to do? Get up?”His expression was gloomy. He pushed my shoulder and pushed me onto the bed.“What are you doing?” I lost my balance and sank into this soft mattress. There was a hint of fear in my eyes.He stepped onto the bed with a dark expression on casualty and untied his tie.I panicked and subconsciously moved to the side. “Evan don’t touch me! You said you wouldn’t force me like this in the future.”“Yeah, I do. But only if you don’t piss me off. I am already furious. You should know what the consequences are!” He said as he heavily pressed his body on me.“Ah… Don’t do this!” I struggled in fear.Unfortunately, my entir
Evan’s POV:Anya had many injuries on her body. Her immune system would probably be unable to cure her.Soon, the family doctor asked the nurse to give Anya a fever-subsiding injection. He also passed a fever-subsiding patch on her.“Mr. Carter, I have injected the patient. The patient immunity is too weak. It’s better for her to rest in bed for a few days. Tomorrow and the day after. She has to take two more shots.”“Alright, got it.”The family doctor left after giving a few more instructions.The injection was taken early in the morning.It was soon past 10:00!Anya woke up in a daze. Because of the fever injection, her mouth was extremely dry.“Cough! Cough!”“Anya, you are awake!” I said as I bought a glass of water for the bed.Her mouth was dry. She took a cup and took a few sips!“Drink slowly. Don’t choke!” I thoug
Evan’s POV:I still carefully taking care of Anya. “Are you feeling better? Do you still feel dizzy? Do you want something to eat?”However, she just ignored me.“Say something? Why are you ignoring me?”“I don’t want to talk to you.”I laughed mockingly. “You still have to be angry with me.”She closed her eyes and fell silent.“Anya stopped resisting. Stop escaping from your feelings. You love me. You can’t lie to me. Your reaction can’t lie to me either!”“Evan, don’t be so disgusting.” She suddenly opened her eyes. Tears flowed down her cheeks.“Alright, alright. I won’t say any more.”“Mr. Carter. Mrs. Carter and Mrs Walter are here.”“What?”“They are in the yard now.”“Why is grandma here?”Grandma was in the garde
Evan’s POV:“Grandma calmed down! If you want to see her, I will get her now.”Grandma’s expression changed. “No need. I will go there and see her personally.”“Grandma!”The Butler pushed Grandma’s wheelchair and walked towards the room aggressively!I had no choice but to run back to my room. I had to reach there before Grandma.I couldn’t persuade my grandmother, so my only choice is now Anya.I hurried to my room.“Anya Grandma is here.”She looked at me with a swollen expression. “I missed the part where that’s my problem!”“Grandma has a heart condition and cannot be agitated. But she might say something nasty when she sees you later.”“So?” she narrowed her eyes.I frowned and answered, “You know what Grandma’s temper is like. No matter what Grandma says to you later, p
When Grandma heard this, blood drained from her face, and she began to see red, she started coughing violently!“Cough! Cough!”“Grandma! Grandma!”She was exasperated. Her body was boiling, and she could not catch her breath. All of a sudden she closed her eyes and fainted.I was scared out of my wits to see Grandma passing out! I hurried to her side to check on her.“Grandma! Quick, doctors! Take a look at the Grandma!”The doctor and caregivers put an oxygen mask on Grandma. Then the doctor gave an injection.“Mrs. Carter is in a critical condition. We have to send her to the hospital immediately.”When I heard this, I sprang to action and hurriedly pushed Grandma’s wheelchair out of the door.“Prepare the car and send grandma to the hospital.”“Yes.”The group of people immediately send Grandma to the hospital.She was
Anya's POV:The following day, I brought Rose, Michael, and Nicole to Green City.I must quickly do something about the inventory.It was almost the end of the year. Now I need a sum of money for the employee salaries.Moreover, I was about to compete with the Carter family for the custody of the children. A good lawyer would require a lot of money. too.Therefore, I urgently need to money now.We travel in a car.Along the way, I kept coughing.Rose quickly handed me a bottle of water. “Miss Walter, can you handle this? You look terrible.”I took the water and took two sips weekly. “I am fine. I will be better after resting.”After saying that I leaned against a back seat and shut my eyes to rest.I took four antipyretic pills just now and the effects of the medicine were kicked in. I felt weak and sleepy now.My heart was beating fast, and my eye right eyelid was twitching nonstop. I had an ominous feeling that something bad was about to happen.Nonetheless, I had been down on my lu
Evan’s POV:Beep! Beep! Beep!David called again.Anya and I both rushed to answer the call. I answered the call hastily.“Hello…”On the other end of the phone, David said gloomily, “Anya, come to Newcan Island alone! Don’t play any tricks, or your daughter will die a horrible death.”Anya’s voice sank, “Alright, don’t worry. I will go alone.”“If I find out that you and Evan were playing any tricks behind the scenes, I will chop your daughter into pieces and feed her to the dogs.”“David, don’t hurt, Flora. Don’t worry, I will go alone.”He sneered and hung up.After hanging up, my eyes darkened. “Anya, I won’t allow you to go. If somebody has to go, it would be me.”Anya’s expression was a little unfocused, “Evan this is the grudge between me and David. Let me settle it alone.”“No, I won’t let you go alone to meet your death. Kody keeps an eye on her. Don’t let her leave Sherane Bay Villa.”“Yes, Mr. Carter.”Without waiting for the bodyguard to come forward, Anya rushed to the co
Anya’s POV:After waiting for the entire night, the call didn’t come again.Evan and I had not slept the entire night. Our eyes are red from exhaustion from the whole night. We remain on the edge, feeling as if it were doomsday.Beep! Beep! Beep!In the morning, Evan’s phone rang againThe two of us reached for the phone at the same time. “Hello!”On the other end of the phone, the voice from the voice changer said, “It seems like you have not made up your mind yet.”I asked bluntly, “David, is that you?”The other end of the phone suddenly fell silent.I took a deep breath and said calmly, “I know it’s you. Please don’t hurt Flora. If you hate me, you can come at me. Flora is just a child. She is innocent. Please don’t hurt her. No matter what, you are her biological uncle.”When David heard this, he was furious. “Shut up. Are you done talking?”“David, can we talk calmly? Even if I die, many things can’t be resolved. What do you want? Or what do you want me to do? You can tell me.”
Anya’s POV:If Flora was kidnapped, with the Carter family's financial resources, no matter how much ransom was asked, we could afford it.But I was afraid that David had abducted Flora. The situation would be different if that’s the case.He hated me to the core. He might very well take revenge on me by hurting Flora.In the next hour, Evan and I looked like it was the end of the world.Every second seems to be like endless darkness.Beep! Beep! Beep!Finally, Evan’s phone rang.Evan held his breath and quickly picked up the call. “Hello!”On the other end of the phone, a distorted voice from a voice changer said, “Hello, there Mr. Carter!”Evan’s POV:I gasped. This voice was very familiar to me.Just like the kidnapper who kidnapped Princess Martha before, it was the same kind of voice changer. “Who are you exactly?”“Do you have my daughter?”“That’s, smart!”“Please don’t hurt my daughter. How much do you want? I will give it to you.”“I don’t want money this time. I want people.
Anya’s POV:I had been too careless.I know that someone had always wanted me dead, so I shouldn’t have let my guard down.Although I had bodyguards with me this time, not many people were allowed to enter the hospital. Therefore, the bodyguard could only wait outside, which gave the criminals an opportunity.“If anything happened to Flora, I would never forgive myself for the rest of my life.”“Flora, where are you? It’s all Mommy’s fault…”“Miss Walter, it’s not time to be sad. Finding Miss Flora is the priority now.”“Harry, let’s hurry to the surveillance room and see if Miss Flora has been taken out of the hospital.”“Okay.”The group of us arrived at the surveillance room.“Miss Flora is missing. Hurry up and put out all the surveillance cameras.”The security guard in the surveillance room was originally dozing off. When a few blurry men barged in, he was so frightened that didn’t dare to say anything and hurriedly checked the surveillance camera.Kody moved the mouse head to c
Anya’s POV:I kept comforting Flora. It was not easy for me to coax my daughter.The nurse drew two tubes of her blood and brought her to the CT room for various tests.After the examination, I asked the nurse, “How long will it take for the result to be out?”“The other test result could be collected in an hour. The result of the blood test would only be out tomorrow.”I had also expected this. It was always like this in the past. “Alright, I understand.”When it was almost noon, Evan called and asked, “How was it?”“There is nothing wrong with these tests. We will have to wait till tomorrow for the blood test result.”“Oh, then I am relieved.”We left the Children’s Hospital.I call Fantine again.“Hello, Miss Anya?”“Is Dad in the hospital?”“Oh, Mr. Walter is here.”I paused for a moment. “I will go over to see him later. Tell Dad.”“Okay.”After the call, I prepared to go to the hospital to see Dad.“Flora, follow Aunt Lilian home first. Mommy will go to and see Grandpa.”When Fl
Evan’s POV:I rubbed Jerry’s head and smiled reluctantly. My youngest son was clever and knew how to flatter me. He was completely different from Jason’s personality.After a twenty-minute drive, we arrived home.“Flora, Daddy, and Mommy are back.”‘Daddy, Mommy. Cough, Cough…” Flora was watching cartoons.Her eyes lit up when she saw us return. And she greeted me as a lie like she did every day. However, she looked sluggish.Anya handed a gift to Flora. “This is a gift for you, Flora!”“Thank you, Daddy and Mommy,” Flora got a limited edition doll and squeezed out a smile.“Baby, are you feeling unwell?”“Yeah, I am a little unwell!” She said. She couldn’t help but cough twice again. Her big eyes revealed her trace of fatigue.Anya’s POV:Seeing this I quickly reached out and touched my daughter’s forehead.The temperature was not very high. It did not seem like she was having a high fever.However, Flora had always been sick. Thus her body’s immune system was weak.“Mommy will take
Anya’s POV:The next day, I got up early in the morning.After washing up, Evan was still asleep. I could only shake him awake. “Wake up. It's time to get up.”He yawned, “So early? What’s the hurry?”“It’s getting late. It’s already 7 o’clock. Hurry up and get up. We still have to rush to the airport.”“Sigh. I have to hand it to you.” Eva reluctantly got off the bed and was dragged to the bathroom by me, who urged him to wash up.After everyone was done, it was already 8:30 in the morning.The driver drove us to the airport.Unexpectedly halfway there, we met a few foreigners in a local police uniform.A tall, burly white man raised his hand to signal the driver to stop. He said in a local language. “Get out of the car quickly. There will be a routine inspection. We suspect you have dangerous items in your car.”“All of you get out of your car and take out your passports…”Evan replied in English, “We need to call our lawyer!”“Shut up and get out of the car.”A few police officers
After hanging up, Anya looked melancholic. “Look, the children are urging us to go back.”“I rarely travel. Let’s shop for a few more days.” I know the best way to treat depression is to relax and heal naturally.“Three days at most.”“There is no need to rush.”“Let’s go. Come with me for dinner.”Anya was helpless. She changed her clothes and went to the street with me.At the entrance of the street.Anya was buying coffee when Coral walked up anxiously and whispered, “Mr. Carter…”I was stunned, “What’s wrong?”“Princess Martha wants to see you.”I frowned.I had not contacted Princess Martha for three or four months. I felt it was over between us.“How did she know I was here?”“Princess Martha happened to be in Menola too. When she saw my Facebook post, she guessed you were also in Menola.”When I heard this, my face was darkened. “Who asked you to post on Facebook?”“Sorry, Mr. Carter…”As he spoke, Princess Martha appeared out of nowhere. “Evan, long time no see!”I turned roun
Anya’s POV:The temperature of the water in the water was very soothing. After soaking for a while, the day’s fatigue dissipated. Perhaps because I was too tired that night, I quickly fell asleep.“Baby, wake up…” Evan called me softly to wake up.I stretched lazily and said, “Oh, I want to sleep a little longer.”Evan smiled gently and pinched my nose. “What a lazy bones. Then sleep a little longer. I will go out for a bit.”“Okay!” I turned around and fell asleep again.Evan was back on time and I was already dressed up.Evan had gone out to discuss business for the past few days and didn’t bring me along. I didn’t even know who he had met.“Do you still have business to handle this afternoon?”He loosened his tie, removed his suit, and took a casual sweater from the wardrobe. “No need. We are done discussing!”
