Evan’s POV:Noticing Anya was in a bad mood, I explained, “Jenny is my friend’s sister. I happen to bump into work. Then, she asked to give me a ride. There is nothing between us.She squeezed out a smile and said, “You don’t have to explain to me!”“Anya, I am afraid you will get me wrong!”“I won’t!”“That’s good! Then let’s eat!”“Great!”The romantic atmosphere instantly became strange.Anya ate silently. I was still easy, even though she was not angry.After lunch, I thoughtfully carried her back and asked, “Come one! I will send you back to your company.”“Thanks.”Soon we reached the entrance of the restaurant.Jenny cried, “Hey, what a coincidence. I am going to shopping with my friend.”The two of us bumped into Jenny again.Jenny asked, “Evan, can you give me a ride?”I directly refused, “I am afraid I can’t. I am going to send Anya back to her company now.”“Aww, Anya. Look how stingy Evan is.”Anya said, “It’s fine. Give her a ride.”“Thank you, Anya.”Then, Jenny opened t
Evan’s POV:Hearing Anya’s words, I felt it funny and wanted to laugh.I thought, Damn it. I can’t believe Anya will get jealous.’I pulled over and said, “Jenny, we have arrived. You should get out of the car.”She pretended to look outside and said, “It's not this street. I want to go to Mason Street ahead.”I didn’t want to listen to her anymore. Thus, I directly rejected her, “It’s not far away. Besides, its not convenient to park there. Why don’t you get out of the car and walk over there?”Hearing this Jenny changed her expression. She cried, “I am wearing high heels. I have to walk two streets. How is that possible? Send me there, please.” She said as she pouted and looked at me pitifullyThen she placed her hand on my arm and acted coquettishly.I hesitated for a second and said, “Alright!” I had no choice but to let go of the break and drive toward Mason Street.Five minutes later, I drove the car to the street Jenny specified.Many pedestrians were on the streets. Thus, I co
Anya’s POV:I rolled my eyes and ignored him.Evan’s strode to the decks and locked his eyes on me.“Are you angry?”I frowned. “Evan, please sit over there! I feel uncomfortable when you look at me like that.”“What’s wrong? I am your husband. Are you afraid of me looking at you?”I rolled my eyes and felt speechless.Then, I buried my head in my work.Unfortunately, in less than three minutes, he shouted again, “Anya.”“What are you doing now?” I looked up impatiently.He bent down and kissed me lightly on the cheek.This unexpected kiss made me feel as if I had been electrocuted. My entire body trembled uncontrollably, and my heart thumped.Seeing my reaction, the smile on Evan’s face widened.When he was interested, he was certainly an expert at flirting. No woman could resist his teasing.I reacted and my face turned red. “Are you crazy? Sit over and don’t lean against me!”“No, I want to be next to you.” He took a deep breath and lowered his head to kiss my lips again.“Evan, wh
Anya’s POV:When I was busy with work, I felt that men would only affect my career. Without Evan around to cause trouble, everything was handled in an orderly manner.I looked at the time it was almost time to get up work.In the past, I would work overtime until late.But now, if I went back late, Evan would probably go crazy again.It was better to go back as soon as possible.I turned off the computer and walked to with my bag.Four bodyguards quickly protected me. “Miss Walter, this way please. Mr. Carter sent us to pick you up.”At the parking lot, by phone rang“Hello?”Evan’s voice comes from the other end of the line. “What are you doing, honey?”I was stunned.In the past, we had been married for two years, but he had never called me honey.Now I suddenly heard him call me honey, I was with burns all over my body.“Why are not saying anything, honey?”“Evan, we’re not married yet. Don’t talk nonsense.”“Well, isn’t it certain that we are going to be remarried? Don’t think abo
Author’s POV:Evan was guarded by Anya’s side, his hawk-like eyes emitting a dense cold light.It had only been a month since the last attack. He didn’t expect that there would be a second wave so soon.It seemed that Tina and Mia were determined to kill Anya. I didn’t want to kill Tina, but it seemed that there was no need to hold back anymore.Beep, beep, beep!Evan’s face darkened as he called the chief of the police.“I want the perpetrator of the attack on Anya was be sentenced severely!”“Understood!” The police chief replied in a deep voice.He was able to become a superintendent because of the Carter family's support. Therefore, Evan’s words were in order.Soon, Paul was detained for terrorist murder!Coupled with the pressure from Evan, he would be put behind bars for at least 20 years.Many death row inmates in prison didn’t care about their lives. It was too easy to kill a person. Paul had offended Evan. It was probably very difficult for him to walk out of the prison alive
Tina’s POV:A police officer flashed the printed message.It was a message I sent to Paul in a fit of anger. ; I will forgive you if you kill Anya.”After reading it, my face turned even paler and my entire body trembled uncontrollably. “I don’t know. I don’t know anything. He wanted to do it himself. I had no idea.”“Then, why would you send him a message like that? Do you hold a grudge against the victim, Anya?”“I didn’t. I really didn’t. I wanted to go. Hurry up and let me go. You can’t accuse me like this. I really didn’t do anything!” I became agitated.“We suspect you of instigated the suspect to commit assault. You have the right to remain silent, but anything you would say will be used against you in the court of law. You can also hire a lawyer to defend you.”Hearing this, I panicked even more.Other than Paul, I had also murdered Grace. Coupled with the fact that I had been in a tense state, I couldn’t withstand the pressure and collapsed. “Ah! My stomach hurts. I want to a
Frank’s POV:“Say something! Aren’t you usually quiet talkative?”“I won’t tell you what I want to say now.”Mia paused for a few seconds and suddenly looked at me. Her tone was rare and gentle. “Its all my fault, honey. I have let you down. I have let this family down too.”Hearing her words, I was stunned. I looked at Mia in surprise.We have been married for more than 20 years, and Mia has always been very dominating. She was the kind of person who could not let others off easily and would make herself sound reasonable, even if she was not.It was the first time that she had taken the initiative to admit her mistake.“What did you say?”“I am sorry. forgive me! You are very good man. I have implicated you.” In this life for the first time, she felt guilty.After hearing this, I felt even more confused.Mia didn’t say anything else. She stood up and silently walked out of the room upstairs.Mia’s POV:I had prepared for the worst.I had to find a way to meet Kensely and bribe him to
Anya’s POV:I had been hospitalized for a few days and had moved home not long ago.Evan told me what happened in the court today.I was shocked, “What did you say?”“Mia had already turned herself in. She was the one who hired the murderer.”I didn’t speak for a long time after hearing this.I know that this murder has something to do with Mia and Tina.Or perhaps, both mother and daughter were involved.It was just that Mia had taken all of them.“Anya don’t worry, they will receive the punishment they deserve.”“Where is Dad? How is he? What is his attitude now?”Evan sneered, “What do you think? No one can take such a huge blow to their family.”My eyes darkened.Although my father didn’t dote on me, now that something like this had happened to the Walter family and Dad had high blood pressure. It was probably very difficult for him to withstand it.Mia’s POV:In the blink of an eye, it was the day of my interrogation came.In the court, I stood haggardly in the judgment seat. My
David’s POV:When I heard this, my eyes turned easily red.I have not seen my father since I started fleeing.Especially after my Dad was hospitalized. I never bothered to visit him even once. In the past, I treated my Dad’s pride and glory like my own.But now seeing myself in the state, I couldn’t bear to face Dad anymore.Seeing a slight change in my expression, Anya quickly continues to appeal to our family bond. “David don’t make another mistake. We are biological siblings, and you are also Flora’s biological uncle. If you let Flora go, you can do whatever you want to me.”“I am also heartbroken that Walter's family ended like this. But ever since I was young, I have always tried my best to integrate into your family…”“The family doesn’t accept me and keeps excluding me…”I suddenly waved his hands, “Shut up and stop spouting nonse
Anya’s POV:Surrounded by small islands, one can observe the environment where I standing with a pair of binoculars.After hanging up, I got out of the car. She stood on the dock and looked around.There were fishermen selling seafood everywhere. On the sea, many small fishing boats were floating around.The fisherman stood on the fishing boat and enthusiastically hawked to passersby. “Do you won’t buy lobster? They are fresh and cheap.”“There are also groupers and crabs. They are all freshly caught. Come and buy some.”I was not in the mood to care about these people. I just looked at the people coming and going in front of me uneasily.I waited another ten minutes or so.A middle-aged man with dark skin approached me. “You are Anya Walter, right?”I turned around and saw a man dressed as a fisherman standing behind me.“Yes, I am Anya Walter!”“Come with me!”I held my breath and hurriedly followed the fisherman.The fisherman brought me to a relatively quiet dock and pointed at th
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
