Frank’s POV:I heard it and was in a dilemma.Although I also heated Anya's guts, I was still her father and didn’t want Anya to die.“Listen to yourself. Don’t think you are being too mean.”“Oh? You said I am being mean? If it weren’t for her, Mr. Carter and Tina wouldn’t have ended up like this! If it weren’t for her, the Walter family wouldn’t have been excluded from the circle of rich people and look down upon!”I shook my head and sighed, “I have told you, Evan doesn’t love Tina at all. The best choice for Tina is to break up with him. But you and Tina didn’t take my advice. Instead you messed around and asked for trouble yourselves!”When she heard this, she hit the ceiling. “What’s wrong with you? Your daughter is bullied. As a father, you are not thinking of standing up for her! On the contrary, you are even criticizing her. Are you out of your mind?”“Fine, you won.”“Come with me. We are going to Sherane Bay Villa to bring Tina back!”“Alright!” I replied helplessly.We dar
Mia’s POV:When I heard this, I stopped him immediately. “You can’t call the police.”“Why?” He looked at me with confusion.I rolled my eyes feeling as though my head was about to explode.I couldn’t let the police know about this matter. There is no way we could call the police for assistance!Tina had told me on the phone that she had gotten into big trouble and had hidden from the police. How could I dare to take the initiative to call the police?“We have no choice but to call the police! Why are you so afraid?”“Oh, if we call the police, we fall out of completely with Mr. Carter! It’s better… to settle this matter privately!”“Besides, it’s not worth break those two up over such a small matter!”“Gosh, you are still thinking about this at a time like this. Then what do you think we should do?”I was also at a loss. “ I don’t know either.”The two of us were worried and flustered.The guard tactlessly leaned forward and asked, “Mr. Walter, Mrs. Walter, what did Mr. Carter say?”
Miss Chain’s POV:After two days of recovery, Miss Walter had finally gotten over the worst of her illness.However, she was still extremely weak. She lay on a bed sleeping, hooked up to a ventilator.“Anya, Daddy is here to see you!”Lilian and I recognized Frank. When we saw, we greeted him, looking shocked. “Mr. Walter, why are you here?”“Oh, I came to see Anya. How is she doing?”“She just fell asleep. Why don’t you wait for a while?”“It’s fine, it’s fine! I want to talk to her, that’s all.” He didn’t listen to me and went to the bed.“Mr. Walter, she just fall asleep. You should wait….”However, he didn’t listen to me and went to the bed. “I have something urgent to talk to her. I won’t take a long!”Before I could stop him, he called out to the bed, “Anya!”
Anya’s POV:I didn’t want to talk to him anymore.I didn’t recall seeing my father so anxious when I was imprisoned!Now that Tina was in trouble, he ran for help faster than anyone else.“Anya, I know you are still angry with me, but don’t make such a fuss now!”He frowned, looking worried, “Tina is now tapped in Sherane Bay Villa. She is pregnant. If anything happen to her, it will be too late to regret.”I rolled my eyes coldly. “Dad, I really can’t help you. Evan won’t listen to me too. If anything, you should go to the call police!”When he heard this, he punched his legs in exasperation. “Just tell Evan to let me take Tina home! It’s such a simple matter. Do you still have to make excuses?”His voice suddenly rose. The smile on his face completely disappeared.“It’s not that I don’t want to help you, but you
Anya’s POV:I immediately understood what he meant by thisEvan had the same suspicion as me. He also suspected that Tina had heard a hit man to kill me.“I know, but no matter what, she’s still my sister. Let her go home first.”“Anya, you can’t always be soft-hearted.” Evan sounds disappointed.“She can run, but she can’t hide. If this matter is related to her, you can always settle this out with her later.” I refuse to be labeled as a pushover.If Tina was too involved in this case, I would not let her off so easily.“Evan didn’t say anything for a long while.Finally, he agreed, “Alright, then. I will call the driver later and ask him to send Tina back home!”“Alright! I will hung up first!”I hung up the phone and looked at Frank in disgust.“Alright, Evan said that he would get the driver sent her bac
Tina’s POV:When I heard this, my scalp tingled uneasily. At my mother’s words, a sudden realization dawned on me. “Mom, Anya was nearly killed by hit-man. Did you hire him to get after her?”“No, no!” She tried her best to hide her panic.My heart rose to my throat. “Mom, tell me the truth. Did you do it?”“Don’t ask so much first. Tell me, who did you transfer those two sums of money to? And what have you done? How can I help you if you don’t tell me?”When I heard this, I wailed and burst into tears again.Seeing this, she asked, “Oh, my god, don’t tell me, you are having affair with that broke loser again? Did you spend all that on him?”“No way!”“Well, what exactly is it? You are really making your poor mother anxious!”I blew my eyes. “Mom, I have gotten a bit trouble this time. If someone finds
Anya’s POV:It was already Christmas Eve!I had yet to recover, so I could only stay in the hospital for Christmas.A loud sound was heard.The whistle of fireworks came from outside the widow. Bright fireworks boomed in the sky.Seeing this Miss Chain and Lillian ran to the window quickly. “Who is setting fireworks?”“Wow! The fireworks are very beautiful!”Fireworks were strictly prohibited in X city. Only during major holidays like Christmas or Independence Day could they be released at a designated location. The police had to maintain order at the scene.Therefore, it would cost at least hundreds of thousands of dollars to set up fireworks. Moreover, it was something that anyone with money could plan.Another sound was heard.Another round of fireworks bloomed in the sky, adding color and sparks to half of the X city.“Wow, it’s so beautiful!” The nurse we
Evan’s POV:I coughed and my face twitched. I was a little angry.I thought, “This silly woman really doesn’t know how to back down. She really wants me to lose face. Why can’t she just follow my wishes and take the initiative to mention marrying me? Forget it! I shall swallow my pride. It doesn’t mean anything. My wife is more important!”I flicked my tongue and pretended to touch the tip of my nose!“Anya, I want to tell you something!”“Go ahead!” She looked at me seriously.I looked at the servants and said, “All of you get out first.”“Yes, Sir!” Miss Chain, Lilian, and others didn’t dare to delay and hurriedly left the ward.After they left, I suddenly choked and stammered, “Anya…”I was usually a deceived and determined person.However, now, I felt inexplicably awkward about proposing to my ex-wife.
Evan’s POV:As I listened, a chilling sensation ran down my spine.“Would you do the same to me?” I asked.“How come? As long as you remain faithful to me, I will faithfully stand by your side.” She replied, adopting a coquettish expression.“By the way, I have already spoken to the Vice President of Yanice Group, and he is eager to collaborate with you.”She continued, “Once Yanice Group and Garcia Group join forces. We can surely bring Evan down from his high pedestal. Then, we can claim a piece of Carter Group’s empire for ourselves.”“Don’t worry, everything is set up, and we are just waiting for Evan to fall into our trap.” She added, a sinister smile gracing her lips.I listened, but deep down, something felt amiss.Evan and I had grown up together and harbored no grudges.My actions now were purely driven by envy.Evan had always outshone me, excelling in every aspect since our youth. And we had been compared to each other.I had lived my life in the shadow of shining Evan. “Ho
Evan’s POV:The two of us exchanged teasing remarks with each other.Suddenly, Zachary changed the subject, pretending to be nonchalant, and asked, “By the way, I heard that you are close to several officials in M city. It was quite difficult to get approval for the Green Bay project, but you managed to do it. I guess these officials help you a lot behind the scenes. Can you introduce me to them? Give me some pointers.”I paused for a moment and said, “With such a wide network you have, do you still want me to introduce you?”“I am telling you seriously. I am planning to invest in project in M city and the approval documents may be difficult to get. That’s why I came here specially to learn from you.” He said with a slightly guilty look in his eyes.“You don’t have to worry. Once the project is approved, I will give you a 10% stake.”As I heard it, I furrowed my brows. Deeming that Zachary was acting strange today.Although we had been good friends since childhood and had always been
Evan’s POV:Just as I was feeling emotional, my phone vibrated in my pocket.I took out my phone and saw that it was from Zachary.“I will go out to take the call!”“Alright, go ahead!” Anya replied casually.I took the call and left the ward.“Hello, Zachary, what’s up?”On the other end of the line, Zachary chuckled, “Ah, Evan, what’s been going on lately? I have been calling you, but you never answered.”“Oh, is there something going on? I have been busy lately!”“Yeah, you are so busy, its not easy to reach you these days.” Zachary teased over the phone.“What’s the matter? Just spill it!”Zachary changed his teasing tone and asked with concern. “I heard that your daughter is sick. Is she getting better now?”“She is still undergoing treatment.”“Well, don’t worry. With the medical advancements nowadays, she will certainly be better.”I furrowed my brows, “I hope so.”By the way, I know a pediatric expert who specializes in treating leukemia. Do you want me to introduce you to him
Marlowe’s POV:As I watched, Anya’s car driving away, an eerie smile appeared at the corner of my eyes.My assistant joked, “President Yanice, I heard that Evan still love his ex-wife and wanted to remarry her. But for some reason, she has been rejected him.”My eyebrows raised even higher when I heard that. “Hey, I didn’t expect Evan to be such a pony. He wants to go back with his ex.”When I was in prison, Evan and Anya had not been married yet.Unexpectedly, after my release, they had broken up and reconciled several times.“Yeah, his daughter has leukemia, and he donated bone marrow to her. I heard he is going to donate again.”“Interesting! Neither have I expected Evan to be such a loving father,” I sneered coldly and my pupils flashed with a wicked light. “Evan, I am going to take everything from you. Anything you like, I will snatch away. Even if I can’t snatch it, I will destroy it all.”Anya’s POV:At noon, I hurriedly arrived at the hospital.“Flora, Mommy is here.”“Mommy,
Evan’s POV:“Anya, you are despicable!” I seethed with anger, directly pressing her down, and started another round of frenzied invasion.Then I launched a new round of crazy invasion.The more she feared getting pregnant, the more I insisted on impregnating her.When she gave birth to the child for me, I wondered, how would she run. So thinking, I tried harder, hoping idea to have twin or triplets.Anya’s POV:The next day, my whole body felt weak, and my limbs were so too sore to the extreme. I had originally planned to wake up at seven but ended up sleeping until 10:30 before recently getting up.“Oh, no, it’s already 10:30. I need to hurry up and go to the hospital.”I dragged my exhausted body and weak body, hastily washed up, and then drove to the hospital.On the way, I suddenly remembered that I had promised to buy egg tarts for Flora. So, I have no choice but to drive to the shopping center again.The things sold here, whether edible or usable, were all top-of-the-line.Of co
Anya’s POV:I looked at Evan and said, “Evan, take a rest. Flora has fallen asleep. You should go back to work tomorrow.”“Don’t bother that. I want to personally stay with Flora. I feel more at ease this way.”“I can handle things here alone. You don’t need to stay.”“How can I leave? Flora needs me right now, and I will stay with her.”Anya’s body trembled.“Anya, once Flora recovers. Let’s get remarried, shall we?”Upon hearing this, my eyes instantly wrinkled.“Remarrying?”I had never thought about such a thing.“Evan, please, don’t bring up these matters right now. I just want to focus on curing Flora’s illness. I don’t want to think too much about anything else.”Evan’s eyes turned cold. “I know what you are thinking, but I want to tell you one thing. I truly love you. And I you and you love the children. I like the idea of being a family with you and your children. I am willing to spend the rest of my life making a for the pain I caused you in the past. Anya, so let me unravel
Marlowe’s POV:Over the past few days, my face darkened with a malicious grim as I saw the increasing online news coverage about Evan.“Evan, this is only the beginning, I will meticulousely settle our accounts. These nine years, I spent in prison will not be in vain. I will make you fall for Grace and pay you a hundred times the price.”Tina sat provocatively by the side, adding, “President Yanice, the Carter Group, is already under investigation by relevant departments. I believe retribution will come soon. The show is finally starting. When the times come, I will present a big gift to Evan. I won’t let him retaliate. Haha, a delightful cooperation. President Yanice, once the Carter group collapsed, remember the promise you made to me won’t be broken.”I smirked maliciously, “Don’t worry. I will always keep my word.”“And. what is this big gift you mentioned?”She sneered, “I have brought another alley on board. With his assistance, we can deliver a fatal blow to Evan. When the cruc
Author’s POV:Online, a new wave of reports emerged.“The Carter Group Assaults Journalists, leaving two reporters seriously injured with severe concussions.”“Evan may face intentional harm charges.”“Two injured journalists are currently receiving treatment in the hospital. The Carter Group’s actions have sparked outrage among the entire X city.”The Internet was buzzing with the news about Carter Group’s bodyguard assaulting journalists.Although Coral attempted to suppress the website, the scandal of the journalist's assault was publicly reported by mainstream media outlets, making it impossible to contain.The footage depicted the journalist and bodyguard shoving and pushing each other unequivocally showing an assault had taken place.Various websites and platforms started sharing the official news reports, making it impossible to suppress the story.“Mr. Carter, the two journalists have filed a law against suit against Carter Group. We received the court summons today.”Evan too
Evan’s POV:I exhaled a plume of smoke, my face growing even more fearsome amidst the swirling haze.Marlowe was arrogant and domineering, bordering on madness. He had spent nine years in prison, not directly at the hands of me, but indirectly due to his actions.If he didn’t seek revenge against me upon his release, it would be a surprise, indeed.Twenty minutes later, the car stopped directly at the children’s hospital.“We have arrived at the hospital Mr. Carter.”“Hmmm!” I stepped out of the car, shook off the scent of smoke from my body, and walked straight to the ward.In the word, Anya sat beside Flora, carefully feeding her some liquid food.“Sweetheart, are you still feeling uncomfortable?”“Mmm, not as uncomfortable as before.”“Then take one more bite.”“Mommy, I can’t eat anymore.”“Come on, just one more bite. You need to eat a little more.” Anya scooped up a spoonful of nutrition supplement and held it near Flora’s mouth.“Okay,” Flora recently opened her mouth and swall
