Evan’s POV:I disembarked from the plane, holding my daughter, with assistants and bodyguards following closely behind.The treatment plan for Flora’s leg had been finalized during our trip to G city.The ailment could be cured, but her current physical condition was too bad for that, and she had undergone multiple surgeries, which had taken a toll on her body.Now, she needed treatment and would have to wait until she turned five. By then, her bones would be stronger, and corrective surgery would be performed.Afterward, she would undergo rehabilitation therapy! Approximately three sessions could be enough to fully recover.Flora was now four and a half years old, so in about six months, she would be ready for corrective surgery.“Evan…”Hearing my name, I looked up and saw Anya on the other side of the barrier!In an instant, however, my face darkened, and my handsome and imposing face was filled with frost.I hurried forward, to my long legs, taking large strides, with bodyguards f
Anya’s POV:“Flora!” I looked at my daughter and wanted to hug her.However, Evan didn’t give me any chance to cuddle my daughter at all, and slammed the car door shut directly!Bang! Bang! Bang! I pounded on the car door angrily!“Wait a minute. You have to let me take back my luggage and the car!”Evan rolled down the window and looked at me coldly, “Don’t worry, I don’t want any blue belongings. I have someone pat up and send them back to your company.”With that, he closed the door window and ordered the driver to leave.I watched as the car drove away.I was filled with anger and frustration, but I knew Evan was difficult to get along with.However, this was also good. Being completely separate from me was not a bad thing.I angrily hailed a taxi and returned home.Evan’s POV:In the car, I let out a few rough breaths, but my anger still couldn’t be suppressed.Flora continued to sob softly. “Mommy, Mommy…”“Stop crying. She is not your Mommy anymore!”“Daddy, please don’t be ang
Anya’s POV:Around one in the afternoon.Knock! Knock! Knock!I was in my office dealing with my work at my hand when the sound of knocking on the door echoed.“Come in.”Rose pushed the door open and walked in. “Miss Walter, Coral is here.”I was surprised.“What’s the matter?”“He said he is here to deliver your luggage and the car.”Upon hearing this, I couldn’t speak a word and my face instantly turned pale.Heh.Evan was indeed ruthless, sending someone to deliver my things to my office.He was telling everyone that he dumped me and kicked me out.“Alright, I got it.”I spoke and went downstairs to meet Coral personally!Seeing me approaching, Coral forced a smile. “Miss Walter. Here is your car key and your items are already in the suitcase. I have placed the trunk for you. You can check to see if anything missing.”My face darkened, “Hmm, I got it.”“Well, then I leave now.”Coral, who usually acted prudently, was stumbling and uneasy today.“Sure.”After Coral left, the employ
Anya’s POV:I was busy until late at night, and it was already past eleven when I finally returned home.When I got home, I was completely exhausted.I had been busy at the company all day and had to figure out how to deal with the issue at the factory in M city. It was overwhelming to me.“Anya, you are back!” Miranda quickly took over my bag.“Yeah!” I replied wearily.Then, I took off my clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower.After that, I went straight to bed to sleep.“Anya, aren’t you going to eat something?”“I have already ate at the office. I am too tired now!”Seeing how exhausted I was, Miranda said with concern, “I see. Rest well, then.”“Good night!”Miranda turned off the light in the room and gently closed the door.The next day news of Evan and my breakup spread like wildfire.The Internet was buzzing with discussion and various true or false rumors were flying around.(Rumored have broken up, Mr. Carter and Miss Walter leaving separately.)(Love turned sou
Kester’s POV:Anya entered the ward with nutrition supplements and a bouquet of lilies. “Kester, are you feeling better? I come to see you!”Seeing that Anya had arrived, I instantly brightened up. “Anya, why are you here today?”“I managed to squeezed out a bit of time today and come to see you.” She said as she placed the flowers and nutrition supplements on the bedside table.I was also very happy. My eyes sparkle with joy and tenderness.I had been looking forward to Anya’s visit every time, thinking that she would not be able to find time to see me.But unexpectedly, she came today out of the blue.“How are you? Are you feeling better?”“I am alright! Don’t worry!”Ellen’s POV:Kester had been transferred from the intensive care unit to the regular ward.In the ward, other than him, there were also two nurses and me to keep him company.Seeing Anya’s arrival, my expression immediately changed and I looked at Anya with hostility.“Cough, cough…” He unintentionally coughed.Seeing
Anya’s POV:Although Kester was from a wealthy family, losing this amount of money was simply nothing, Moonlight media was still a business he built, and now it was destroyed by Evan.It was certainly infuriating!Ellen continued with us without stopping. “Also, the reason why Mr. Helsen got in the car accident was to rush to see you!”When I heard this, I found it hard to believe.“I don’t care who you love. If you want Mr. Helsen to be well, please stay away from him! A woman like you is not worthy of Mr. Helsen!”She angrily scolded without reservation.I took a deep breath and looked at Ellen calmly. “Miss Ellen, I think you have misunderstood. Kester and I are good friends. It’s not what you think!”She sneered. “No need to explain. I am not a fool. We all are sophisticated adults. How could I not understand what you are planning about? You just want to make use of Mr. Helsen! Please stay away from him and stop bothering him.”Ellen’s POV:I came from a less privileged background
Anya’s POV:The two little ones ran over to me happily.“Mommy, we missed you so much.”“Mommy missed you guys too!”I crouched down and embraced Jason and Jerry, feeling a surge of emotion that almost brought tears to my eyes.However, in front of children, I usually control myself and refrain from crying in their presence.“Mommy, why have not you come back? We missed you so much!”“Mommy missed you too. From now on, Mommy will come to see you every week!”Jerry asked timidly, “Mommy, do you really not want us anymore?”“Silly boy, why wouldn’t Mommy wants you. Mommy can give up anything, but not you….”My nose tingled with sourness, and tears welled up in my eyes.There were my three children, my flesh and blood.How could I not love them? But now, their custody had been taken away from me.I could only watch helplessly as my children were taken away from my side. That was why I had to work harder, earn enough money to rival Evan, and reclaim custody of the children.With my curren
Anya’s POV:After hearing this, I was left completely furious.Evan was too tyrannical. Anyone who did not go out with his thoughts would have a tough time.“This is not allowed. That is not allowed. Can’t eat this, can’t eat that! Am I supposed to just sit and wait with the kids for an hour?” I couldn’t help but be angry.When the nanny saw that I was angry, she looked serious and cautious. “That’s what Mr. Carter instructed. We don’t dare to disobey! Besides, there are only ten minutes left. If you exceed the time limit, we will be punished!”When I heard this, I was even more furious. “Are you kidding me? It has been five minutes since I got out of the car. Why are only ten minutes left?”“Miss Walter, Mr. Carter said that one hour was calculated from the moment they left the house!”I was so angry that my body was trembling.If it was not illegal to hurt, I wanted someone to chop Evan’s head.According to Evan, I had less than half an hour to see the children every week.If this c
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
