Coral’s POV:After Mr. Carter hung up, he smoked one cigarette after another.His cold and distinct face looked as if it were covered in forest. It made people shiver just by looking at him.We were even more afraid. We didn’t even dare to breathe loudly.We know that when Evan was angry, he could explode at times.10 minutes past.He subconsciously looked at his watch.Evan’s POV:My heart ached.I felt that I could no longer subdue this damn woman. My order and dignity had already lost their power to her.Another 10 minutes passed, but Anya still had not returned.I had already smoked half a box of cigarettes. My heart was burning. I had already given the order just now and was only waiting here for 20 minutes. But now it was time.‘Damn woman! You are really brave.” I throw the cigarette end on the ground.“Let’s go back to x city!”“Yes, Mr. Carter!”Coral hurriedly opened the door for me. I was about to get in the car with a gloomy expression.Suddenly, a commercial car drives to
Anya’s POV:I looked at him in shock and my eyes were in disbelief!It was difficult for an arrogant person like him to say such things.However, I would not be easily deceived by the sweet words of this kind of scumbag, who was a repeat offender and had a criminal record.After all, sweet nothings were the cheapest method to flirt with girls. I was no longer a teenage girl and was long past the age where I would be fooled by such methods.“Say something. Why are you looking at me suspiciously like that? Do you think I can’t do it? Or do you think I am a scumbag who can’t change for the rest of my life?” he asked.It seemed that he was quite self-aware.“It’s good that you know.” I replied angrily, but my expression softened a lot.“I, Evan, always keep my word! Give me a year. If I really can’t do it, we will break up then. I won’t pester you anymore.”I didn’t reply.If Evan truly changed, if he could truly do as he said, then, of course, I was willing to love him.After all, he was
Frank’s POV:At Mental Sanitarium.Tina was mentally agitated and had been sent to a hospital specialized in treating mental and psychological illness.“Evan, these are the Twins I gave birth to for you. Look at how much they look just like you.”“Evan you have not named them yet.” Tina hugged two pillows and smiled happily.I watched from the side and felt an indescribable heartache.My beloved daughter, my little princess that I was so proud of had now become a raving mad lunatic.I couldn’t accept such a let-down.“Tina… Dad is so sorry!” I couldn’t help but wipe my tears with my sleeves.Tina’s eyes were unfocused. She hugged the pillow and looked at them for a long time. “No, these are not our children. I think I had a miscarriage. Oh, my God, where is Mom?”“Mom, Evan wants to break up with me. He doesn’t want me anymore. Mom quickly helped me think of a solution. I can’t live without Evan. I still want to be Mrs. Carter.”Tina’s emotions were out of control again. She was runni
Anya’s POV:At the airport, in the VIP lounge, Evan and I were preparing to fly to G city with Flora.“Kody, help us with our check ins!”“Alright, Mr. Carter!”I prayed sincerely. “I hope this doctor can cure Flora.”“You have to be confident. Flora’s illness will certainly be cured.”“Okay, I am going to the washroom.”“Go.”I took my bag and walked towards the washroom.Just as I reached the washroom, my phone rang.I took out my phone. It was Orvin.Orvin was Kester’s assistant and the person Kester trusted the most.“Orvin!”On the other end of the line, Orvin’s anxious voice said, “Miss Walter…”“What’s wrong?”“Mr. Helsen was in a car accident!”“What?”“Mr. Helsen was in a car accident. His injuries are very serious. The doctor said that they might not be able to save him.”When I heard that, I felt as though I had been struck by lightning. My mind went blank.“Before Mr. Helsen fainted, he kept shouting your name. I hope you can come to the hospital to visit him!”“Where is h
Anya’s POV:As I neared the port, I heard my phone ringing, causing my heart to sink even further.Without even looking at the caller ID, I knew it was Evan calling.That was precisely why I didn’t dare to answer.If Evan discovered that I was going to visit Kester, he would undoubtedly be furious.My heart raced, but I mustered the courage and answered, “Hello…”Evan’s voice on the other end carried an urgent and worried tone. “Anya, where are you? We are about to board the plane. Why have not you returned yet?”“I…” I hesitated, struggling to find the right words.“What’s going on? Tell me where are you? I will come find you.” He said anxiously.After a brief silence, I plucked up my courage and confessed, “Evan, I have a pressing matter that needs to be done right away. You and Flora go to G city. I will join you tomorrow.”“Anya, where exactly are you now? What has happened? What’s it that’s even more important than our daughter?”I took a deep breath, striving to convey my messag
Anya’s POV:As I continued to pray fervently, an elderly man in his sixties entered the room.He had a distinguished presence and commanded respect as he walked in,The people waiting outside the operating room greeted him with a deference, “Mr. Helsen.”Upon hearing their greeting, I instinctively looked up.It was Kester’s father, Tim Helsen, a renowned figure in the gambling industry in the V city.“Mr. Helsen…”Although Tim and I had never met before, we seemed to know each other very well.After all, our names had frequently graced the headlines, making them well-acquainted, if only indirectly.“So, you are Anya Walter?” Tim assessed me, his tone devoid of any detectable emotion or hint of anger.“Yes, it's me!” I replied, my heart skipping a beat unconsciously.Orvin promptly stepped forward to introduce, “This is Mr. Kester’s father, Mr. Tim. This is Miss Walter, the chairman of the Walter Group.”“Nice to meet you, Mr. Tim!”Tim adjusted his glasses, his demeanor calm and comp
Tim’s POV:In the parking lot, Grace( Kester’s sister) wore an annoyed disdainful expression. “Dad, is this woman Kester’s girlfriend? I heard she was previously married and had three children. The second-hand woman isn’t worthy of Kester.”I tightened my lips slightly. “As long as Kester likes her, nothing else matters.”“But this woman’s ex-husband is Evan! I heard she still is entangled with him, and not long ago, she and her sister were fighting over a man, causing quite a stir! And now all of a sudden, she is with Kester again! Such an improper woman is simply not suitable for Kester!”“Heh…” I smiled meaningfully, choosing not to say more.To be honest, I was not a conservative narrow-minded tycoon myself. I had lived a libertine life, siring no fewer than eight children with various women.So, when it comes to relationships, I took a more liberated view. As long as this was what my son wanted, I would support his pursuit.After all, I believe that a man could never be faithful
Anya's POV:I was startled, realizing that Evan had issued instructions to resist my access to the premises.Thankfully, I had not transported s significant amount of my belongings to the villa, and I had yet to terminate my previous lease agreement.“Has Evan returned?” I inquired, hoping to glean some information from the guard.Shaking his head, the guard responded, “I don’t know.”“Alright, then. I would like to get in to gather my belongings. There should be permissible, correct?”Outside the imposing entrance, a stern-faced security guard denied my entry. “Miss Walter, please wait until Mr. Carter returned and grants you the permission, and then you may pack a belongings.”“We are unable to grant you access at that moment, madam!”“Hmm, fine then!” I sneered and turned away.Fortunately, I hadn’t easily fallen for Evan’s charm and her no illusion about him. Being kicked out of the house didn’t leave me too disheartened.I would simply move out, after all, I no longer wanted his
