Brother Trumpet’s POV:“We have to be prepared. It’s best if you find employees familiar with the E-commerce delivery procedure.”I could also tell that she was not familiar with the e-commerce industry. So, I gently reminded her.“Okay! Okay!”I smiled again and stood up. “That’s it then. See you next Saturday. However, it’s best if you can come to Green City a day in advance and familiarize yourself with the process.”She nodded, “Okay.”“Goodbye!” I extended my right hand politely.She shook my hand again. “Goodbye. I hope this will be a successful collaboration.”I didn’t see anything else and left the private room.We parted and went on our ways.When my secretary and assistant realized that I had signed a contract with Anya, they were all astonished.“Boss, you have not even gotten a clear understanding of the Walter Group, and you are already signing a contract with them.”“That’s right. Those who want to collaborate with us have been waiting for half a year. It may not be good
Evan’s POV:I let out a slight sigh and took the lunch box. I ate a few mouthfuls mindlessly.I had not eaten anything since yesterday and I was indeed hungry.I finally start eating.Suddenly I heard the sound of heels pacing along the corridor.Mia and Frank for rushing over.“We rushed over when we heard that something happened to Mrs Carter.”“How is Mrs. Carter? Is she awake?”Tina looked sad and worried. “Mom, Grandma is still in the ICU. She is not out of danger yet.”Upon hearing that, Mia released an exasperated sigh and muttered, “Goodness, what a disaster. The poor old man is so fragile, how can she handle all this stress? Now What? This is a major catastrophe! What on earth we should do? I have been saying all along, that Anya is walking curse. Anyone who gets entangled with her is bound to be unlucky.” She continued to complain.I was already overwhelmed with turmoil. Mia’s words only added fuel to my frustration, pushing me closer to my breaking point.“If there is nothi
Tina’s POV:At the staircase, when I heard Evan calling Anya, my face contorted with anger.Anya had nearly driven Grace to her grave, yet Evan not only harbored no anger towards her but also showed concern.I took a deep breath, my eyes widened and my fingers clenched into a tight fist.“Anya you damn bitch! You have really outdone yourself. You managed to make Evan forgive you! Evan, I will never let you be with Anya.” I thought to myself.Evan was still on the phone.I pretended everything was normal and quickly returned to the ward, obediently waiting outside.Evan’s POV:After wrapping up my call, I coincidentally found myself face-to-face with the doctor who had come to check up.“Hey, Doc, how is my grandma doing today?” I asked with concern.“The accumulation of brain fluid in her isn’t too serve. Judging by her progress, she would wake up with an week.” The doctor replied.A sense of relief washed over me. “Really? Please make sure to take good care of her, Doc!”“Don’t worry
Tina's POV:My heart pounded and with trembling hands, I instinctively yanked out the ventilator plug.Grace, deep and slumber, suddenly struggled to breathe and woke up in distress, her face contorted in pain.Startled by Grace's awakening, I panicked and accidentally knocked over a water glass on the table.She gasped for breaths, her struggle evident."Grace..." I was terrified momentarily frozen, unsure of what to do next.This was my first attempt to deliberate murder, and my nerves were on the edge.She weekly raised her hand, groping aimlessly in the air, only for it to fall back down heavily a minute later."Grace... Grace..." My fear escalated, causing a tingling sensation on my scalp as I called out in a panicked, frenzy.As a critically ill patient, Grace's life slipped away within three minutes, her breathing ceasing.Summoning my courage, I checked Grace's breathing and found none."Oh, Grace... Grace..." I finally grasped the gravity of the situation and cried out in sho
Anya’s POV:When I arrived, I saw Evan and Tina sobbing.Seeing them in tears, I couldn’t help but feel alarmed. “What’s going on?”When Evan laid an eye on me, his gaze turned wild like a furious beast. They were crimson and fierce as if he wanted to tear me apart right there and then.“My grandmother is dead. Are you satisfied now?”This news struck me like a thunderbolt! The flowers I had, slipped from my grasp and fell to the ground.Tina’s voice was choked as she scolded angrily, “It was you who killed her. It was because of you that she got so angry that she had to be hospitalized. Now that she has gone, how dare you show up? You murderer! Didn’t you kill her? Are you happy now?”“This… this can’t be!” I gasped in disbelief. Evan had informed me over the phone that Grace’s health had been gradually improving. How could suddenly pass away?“Evan, is that true?” I looked at Evan in disbelief.His expression changed, and he couldn’t help but clench his fists. “Fuck off! Fuck off! I
Evan’s POV:A week passed.Grandma’s funeral has been over.“Mr. Carter, are we still going to fight for the custody of the children?”“Of course, I will honor Grandma’s wishes and fight tooth and nail for custody of the children, no matter the cost!”The lawyer nodded, “Understood!”My face turned grim as I icily declared, “Listen carefully, I want full custody of the children. Not a single one will be left in her possession!”“Understood!”Before long, the day of the court hearing has arrived.I had enlisted a team of top-notch international lawyers.This time, I would show no mercy toward Anya.Children are Anya’s greatest love, and they mean everything to her!I intended to snatch all the children away from her, aiming to shatter Anya emotionally.On the day of the court hearing, I strode into the courtroom, dressed in a black suit and cold expression.Anya followed closely behind, her demeanor solemn.As expected, she lost the lawsuit, and it was a complete loss.I was granted fu
Anya’s POV:After hearing Mr. Bryce’s analysis, my vision darkened. I struggled to maintain my composure.“Miss Walter, peace be careful! Above all, take care of your well-being.”I took a moment to regain my composure as my eyes could not see things.This defeat was devastating to me.I remained immersed in profound sorrow. Not far away, a swarm of reporters had been waiting for me. When I emerged from the courthouse, they pounced on me like a hungry wolf.“Miss Walter! We heard that custody was awarded to Mr. Carter. Will you continue with the appeal?”“Miss Walter, if the appeal is denied, will you still fight for custody?”The reporters clamored, shoving their microphones toward me. Each one regarded me with their predatory eyes as if I were a succulent prey.“I beg you, please stop focusing on me and let me be.” I lost control in front of the cameras, completely breaking down emotionally.I couldn’t bear being exploited as a mere speculator by these reporters and I didn’t want to
Tina’s POV:Although Sharane Bay Villa was an upscale residence, it lacked the prestige of the mansion! Living here made me feel superior.He replied coldly, “The children will be living here in the future. It’s better if you stay away from them.”I forced a fake smile. “No need! I will live with the children to nurture our relationship. I like them, you know!”“There is no need for you to be bound with the children.” He said, coldly and left without looking back.After Evan left, my face fell, and I stomped my feet resentfully.Evan’s attitude toward me was growing colder by the day. I feared that I wouldn’t find much happiness in the future.Still, even if I wasn’t happy, being married to Evan was enough.Without delay, I ordered someone to help me pack my belongings. Moving to Sharane Bay Villa was not bad. There will be a still penalty for opportunities to deal with those kids in the future.I had just finished packing when my phone rang.It was Mom.“Hey, Tina!” Mom sounded excit
Zachary’s POV:I wanted to run. Unfortunately, my legs were already tied up with iron chains. I couldn’t run at all, let alone break free.The woman in red held a sinister-looking boning knife in one hand. Her hair covered most of her face as she walked towards me bit by bit.My heart was pounding so hard that I was about to faint.“Tina… Tina, I know it’s you! Please don’t scare me! I know it’s you! Let’s talk things over. Don’t do anything rash. Please don’t do anything rash. What do you want? You can tell me…”“Ah!”Tina had already walked to my side step by step and lightly brushed her hair aside, revealing a face as pale as paper!When I saw clearly that it was Tina, I was even more frightened.I had already seen how crazy Tina was!Now that I was in her hands, I would probably not be able to get out alive!“Tina…. Tina, calm down first. I have let you down. However, I was also forced to do it. I was also forced into a dead-end by you. I love you. I love you!”Tina was unmoved. S
Jenny’s POV:The family began to take turns calling Zachary.Unfortunately, we still couldn’t get through to him.At this point, four to five hours had passed since the first call.Mom's eyebrows kept twitching and she had a bad feeling, “Will something happen to Zachary?”Dad frowned and said angrily, “What could happen to him? Who knows where he went to play again? This rascal is becoming more and more useless.”“Forget about him. Let’s eat first!”“Impossible. No matter how ridiculous Zachary is, today is a special day. He couldn’t possibly be not coming back today!”“We have been unable to get through him. Something must have happened! Let’s quickly send someone to look for him!”When Dad heard this, his frown deepened.Zachary liked to spend time drinking and merry-making and preferred to come and go alone. Therefore, he did not like to bring bodyguards.I also started to get anxious, “Something might have happened to Zachary. Just now he said that he would be home in half an hou
Zachary’s POV:I quickly walked to the car and hurriedly opened the door.It was not until I got into the car that my pounding heart felt a little better.“Hurry up and go home…”Buzz!After I started the car, I got out of the parking lot as if I was fleeing.This hotel was about 25 miles away from the Garcia residence.Without traffic, I could reach home in less than an hour.The Garcia family was also wealthy. Wealthy families paid more attention to privacy and safety. Their residences were usually very remote. Many of them were mansions halfway up the mountain, far away from the city.I was driving home.It was halfway through the journey. After a few more turns of tree-paved roads, I was able to see the top of the mountain where the Garcia residence was located.“Beep! Beep! Beep!”When I made a turn, my phone suddenly rang.“How annoying…” I thought that my sister was urging me to go home again, so I picked up the phone and answered it.“I already said I will be home soon. Stop c
Jenny’s POV:Today was Christmas Eve.Almost everyone returns home to spend the New Year with their families.The Garcia family was naturally no exception.As soon as I walked into the house, Mom stood up with the blame on her face. “Jenny, you are finally back. I called you so many times, but you didn’t answer. What are you busy with?”“I am back now. Merry Christmas Daddy and Mommy!” I hugged my mom happily.Dad stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. He pushed up his round-frame glasses and said unhappily, “What time is it? Why isn’t your brother home yet?”“That’s right! What’s going on with Zachary recently? He doesn’t come back more and more.”“He is also listless and distracted every time he comes back. This brat is getting more and more outrageous.”When I heard this, I secretly curled my lips in disdain.I know that my brother and Tina were dating.Now that his little girlfriend was gone, he must be sad.“Hurry up and call your brother. Tell him to come back quickly.”
Anya’s POV:“You are the one who came to me, not the other way around. If you don’t believe me, you might as well return.”“Miss Garcia, I am asking you for your help sincerely. If you continue with this attitude, we really can’t continue this conversation.” I stood up and pretended to leave.Seeing this, Jenny panicked and suddenly stood up, “Anya, what do you want?”I shrugged slightly, “I said that as long as you can get Evan out, I will certainly leave X city. I will keep my word. I can write you a guarantee.”“Hah, what’s the use of that?”I sneered, “Of course. It had a legal effect. As long as I leave X city, with your outstanding looks and family background, Evan will certainly fall in love with you over time.”Jenny’s POV:When I heard this, my eyes darkened. I also agreed with Anya’s words.As long as Anya left X city forever, then my chances with Evan were considerable.“Alright, I will believe you this once. Then write to me a guarantee. If you go back on your word at that
Jenny’s POV:I was stunned.I had looked for Anya and Evan before, but they all rejected me.Now that Anya had taken the initiative to look for me again, I was surprised.“Why? Have you thought it through? Are you willing to sacrifice yourself for him?”Anya took a deep breath. “Yes, if you have a way to get Evan out, I am willing to accept your suggestion to leave X city and never come back.”I rolled my eyes when I heard that.“Are you serious? You are not going to tease me again, are you?”“Why would I? I am very sincere!”“Alright then come to City Cafe!”“Will do.”Then I hung up the phone.Anya’s POV:After hanging up, I said, “Sam Drive to the City cafe!”“Alright!”City Cafe is X city’s most upscale coffee shop.At the same time, Jenny owned the place. It should be very safe to meet here.Thirty minutes later, Sam drove the car and arrived at City Coffee.“Where are you? I am already at the door.”“Then come in.”“Sam take the kids home first, then pick me up.”“Okay.”I got o
Anya’s POV:When I heard this, I felt a punch in my heart again.“Daddy will be out soon. Be good when Daddy isn’t around. Don’t be naughty, and don’t make Mommy angry.”“Yes, we will.”“Give the phone to Mommy. Let Daddy and Mommy a few words.”Anya took the phone. Her eyes were still a little red. “Don’t worry. The children have been good!”At this moment, I want to smash the glass window and hug the four of them.“Anya, I am worried about your safety. If anything happens to you, I can’t accept.”Anya pondered for a few seconds, “After the New Year. I will send the children overseas.”“What about you?”“Of course, I had to stay here!”When I heard this, my eyes turned even redder.I suddenly regretted it.I felt that I should never have given Anya the position o
Evan’s POV:(There was a shooting on Eastern Avenue, seriously injuring three people.)(The target of the gunshot is suspected to be the Carter Group’s new president.)I was special. Therefore, I lived in a separate cell that was even occupied with that television.After watching the news early in the morning, I was so shocked that my scalp went numb. I felt as if the blood in my body flowed backward.Bang! Bang! Bang!I patted the prison door.A guard walked over, “What’s the matter, Mr. Carter?”“I need to make a phone call.”“No, you are still in custody…”My eyes widened and I shouted, “I have to make a phone call now. Or you have to bear the consequences.”Seeing that I was agitated, the guard didn’t dare to act on his own. He quickly went to ask his superior.My request was approved by the higher-ups.I finall
Anya’s POV:My eyes were filled with vigilance. I completely ignored Liam’s expression.I would not react so dramatically if Liam just come to visit on any other day. But today, I had just been shot by the criminals, and Liam had come to the door.It was not hard to connect the two things.In particular, if something happened to me and my child, Liam would undoubtedly be the biggest beneficiary.“Mr. Miller, it’s getting late. I think it’s time for you to leave. I won’t keep you for dinner.” My heart was in turmoil as I directly ordered Liam to leave.When Liam heard this, he was even angrier.“Hmph!” He snorted and walked away.After he left the house, Jason and Jerry looked at me in confusion. “Mommy, why are you so angry towards Grand Uncle?”Usually, I was very gentle, and exceedingly polite when I faced the elders.But today, I am almost like a bulldog. I was not gentle at all.“Jason, Jerry, in the future when Mommy is not by your side, you can’t accept anything from anyone.” As
