Anya’s POV:As I looked at the messages sent by Kester, I didn’t know what to say.So, I didn’t reply to him.‘What was Kester like?’I knew him.Probably, the reason why he gave me all his tenderness was because he had never got me.I don’t know what’s wrong with me recently.Strangely, I suddenly became sensitive again.After divorcing Evan, I once promised myself that I would never fall in love with anyone again in my life. Because being in a relationship with someone could only bring me nothing but pain.But now… it’s just been only four years… but my mind was again in a mess because of Evan.Frowning, I opened my bag and took out some pills of sertraline and paroxetine. Then, without hesitation, I took them.After that, I threw myself into the work again.Since I didn’t come to the company these days, I have a lot of business to do.So, today I decided to work overtime to get all these things done.My team was starting to roll in.So, it was time for me to get rid of some deadwoo
Jerry’s POV:Hearing someone called Maria, me and Jason ran over excitedly and exclaimed, “Maria, was Mommy calling you?”“Yes, you Mommy said we would go out for dinner tonight. She asked you to get dressed right now.”“Yeah, that’s great!” Jason exclaimed.Then, we both hurried and changed our clothes.After changing the clothes, we happily went downstairs with Maria.Then, we stood at the gate of the community with Maria, waiting for our Mommy.It’s been only one minute since we were waiting when all of a sudden, some malicious-looking men in black suits came over.Then, without saying a word, they forcibly took me and my brother.Seeing this Maria freaks out.“What are you doing? Put them down! This is kidnapping! Help!”Maria cried as she tried to snatch us back.However, she was more than fifty years old and she was too weak to snatch us back.“Ouch…”Maria was pushed to the ground by a man in black.“There is kidnapping! Help!”“Let go of me! Let go of me!” I shouted.However,
Anya’s POV:Fortunately, Jerry and Jason were only slightly injured. They were all right after the doctors sterilized their wounds and applied some ointment. Kester was also not badly hurt. He just needed to be simply bandaged.“Anya, if you don’t want to send them abroad, how about sending them to V City?”“They will be in kindergarten soon. There is an exclusive private kindergarten there. You can send them there to study.”“V City is also close to X City and it’s only an hour away by boat. And you can visit them every week.”“Let them take shelter for some time. After Evan and Tina get married. He will probably forget it and won’t disturb you.”Pausing for a while, Kester continued, “Ora still has not been exposed. You don’t need to worry about her. Just let her stay by your side!”Hearing that, I looked at him with some hesitation.X City and V City were separated only by sea. Although V City was small, it was the only city in the country where gambling was allowed. And the Helsen
Anya's POV:When Aura finally fell asleep, I sighed, turned off the light, and came out of my daughter’s room without making any noise.“Beep-beep.” Suddenly, my phone rang, frightening me.It was an unknown number.“Hello?” I answered.“Anya, where did you hide the children?”Evan’s angry voice comes from the other side of the line.I replied in a brusque tone, “What’s wrong with you? They are my children and have nothing to do with your family. Don’t disturb us anymore. I will sue you if you abduct the children again!”Evan swallowed and growled coldly, “Tell me, where are the children?”“I have sent them study abroad! Don’t waste your time.”Evan explained, “Anya, Grandma is getting old. She just wants to see the children!”“I’m sorry, but I’m under no obligation to meet your request.” I said firmly.I know that if children went to see Grace, they would be forced to stay here. Grace she shrewd woman. She would not release them easily.After a pause, Evan said, “Anya you have only o
Frank’s POV:After Mia finds out that all her trusted followers were fired by Anya, her blood boils from anger.“Damn! Anya has fired six of my cousins!”“She is so cruel!”She cursed Anya while crying and punched me from time to time.However, I didn’t say anything and just kept smoking.“Frank, see what your daughter did. If you don’t do anything to her, she is gonna be more rampant.”I drew my cigarette and sighed, “What can I do? That rebellious girl disrespects me. Will she be polite to your people?”“You are such a wimp. You are her father, and you cant even control your own daughter. I think you should hold a press conference and serve ties between father and daughter with her.”I slapped my thigh and said with a weary face, “Hey, let’s not bring something like this to the press! Isn’t it disgraceful enough? Beside, even if I’m not the chairman, our family still has lot of savings and so many side businesses. We can still live our lives!”Mia snapped back, “How is that same? Wa
Anya’s POV:Evan sneered and drawled, “Stop pointing fingers if you don’t have any proof. What did I do? What does have the plummeting of Walter Group shares have to do with me?”Infuriated, I took a sharp breath and clenched the phone.“What the hell to you want?” she asked.“What do I want? Isn’t it clear to you?”I roared into the phone, “I’m telling you that there is no way its going to happen. The child has already gone abroad and its unlikely to return soon! And for the record, the child has nothing to do with you and the Carter family! We are adults. Please don’t resort to this underhanded tactic.”Evan stuck my tongue out. “Here, Are you angry?”I was rather speechless by my response. “I will damned if I’m not.” I cursed angrily in my mind.A wicked grin broke onto Evan’s face as he spoke deliberately in a rascal tone, “I just love it when you are pissed off but can’t get to me.”Evan burst out in laughter after saying this.I rolled my eyes in annoyance. ‘I would have killed
Coral’s POV:Today Mr. Cater is behaving abnormally.He looked at his phone every two minutes, and every time he did, his face darkened even more.He even smokes a dozen cigarettes in a row.As if didn’t take it anymore, Mr. Cater took his phone and took the initiative to call Miss Walter.“Ring! Ring!”However, the phone still didn’t get connected and the mechanical voice came from the phone…“Hello, the person you are calling is currently unavailable…”“Damn!”Mr. Cater cursed and threw the phone on the ground with a bang.“This damn woman! How dare she does not answer my call!” He cursed.Seeing this, I frowned.Then, I picked up the phone, whipped out the SIM card, and replaced it with another phone.This is the fifth phone that Mr. Cater had broken this month.“No wonder people say that the rich can do whatever they want,” I thought inwardly.“Coral, notify the financial market to block Walter Group…”“Noted! By the way, I just got the news that Miss Walter is holding a press con
Anya’s POV:“Miss Walter you are so beautiful! Are you interested in joining the entertainment industry?”I smiled gracefully towards the camera and said, “Nice joke! I’m more than content if Walter Group could flourish.”“Excuse me, when you and Mr Helsen getting married?”“That’s personal. I can’t answer it right now!”I had been non-committal about my affair with Kester over the years.After all, I still needed Kester as my patron at the moment.Of course, the partnership was a two-way street.With my title as Mr. Carter’s ex-wife, I would automatically be dragged into the limelight. That way I could bring more attention to his films and television company.“Mr. Helsen, when are you going to propose to Miss Walter?”Hearing that, Kester smiled, looked at me lovingly, and said, in a half-earnest and half-in-jest manner, “That depends on when she is okay with that! If she wants to marry me now, I can propose immediately!”“Wow! That’s sweet!”“Propose now!”The reporters cheered.I s
