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
Tina’s POV:Anya looked even more stunning than a celebrity on TV.It didn’t look like she was holding a press conference. This was like a demonstration.Seeing that I felt upset and more anxious than ever.Ever since Anya came back, Evan had been treating me coldly.“Mom, look at Anya’s smug face! Do something! Don’t let her get so cocky!”My mother swallowed heavily, snorted, and said, “Relax. Let her think that she had had her way first. Her plummet awaits her in a couple of days. By the way, have you been in touch with Mr. Carter in the past two days?”Hearing that, my eyes darkened.It’s been two days, however, not only didn’t call me he also didn’t answer my calls.Thinking that I sighed exasperatedly.“Why the frustration? You should strike while the iron is hot. In case of any undesirable complication, the matter between you and Mr. Carter should not be put off any longer. If we keep stalling, I don’t know what’s going to happen.”Resignedly, I retorted with gritted teeth, “Wh
Mia’s POV:I took a seat on the European leather couch.Across from me was a rosewood desk that spanned several meters long.Evan perched back in his desk chair. Behind him was a glass bookcase that extended to the whole wall.As I looked at Evan, I couldn’t help but sigh.Evan is very handsome.It was like his angular features were craved by God.Not only did he have a stunning countenance, but his physique was also comparable to the international male models.He was oozing hormones all over.If I were 20 years younger, I would have pursued this handsome man.Evan’s POV:When Mia smiled, her cheeks puffed out on her face, which was pumped with hyaluronic acid.Her plump lips were crimson red like blood.I looked uncomfortably at Mia as I felt devastated.I almost wanted to throw up at the pungent smell of her perfume.My face turned grim as I said, “Mrs Walter, is there anything I can help with you.”“Oh, its nothing! I just come to see you.”Mia said with a flirty smile while lookin
My phone suddenly rang.When I saw that it was Evan on the phone, I immediately picked it up.I squelched my throat and said, “Hello!”“Hello, Tina!”“Yes, Evan!”Evan paused for a moment and asked in a deep voice, “Are you free tonight?”Hearing that, my heart raced with delight. Evan hadn’t asked me out for a long time.“Yes, I am free!”“Let’s have a dinner tonight!”“Great! About what time?”“I will pick you up at eight o’clock! We are going to The Tables Delights. Remember to dress up.”“Sure. I will see you tonight!”“See you tonight!”After hanging up the phone, I jumped in joy.At that moment, my mother happened to come back. Seeing me jumping like this, she sneered and asked, “Why are you so happy?”“Mom, Evan just called me and asked me to dinner at ‘The Table Delights’ tonight! Mom, come and help me pick up the right dress!”“Well, it’s all thanks to me! I can only help you so far. The rest is up to you,” she hummed.I was a little shocked. “Mom, did you visit Evan?”“So wh
Evan’s POV:As I looked up, my eyes fell on Anya who had just happened to walk in.She was wearing a black knee-length skirt. The black heightened her delicate swan neck and collarbone.Although her dress didn’t expose her bosoms, she still looked gorgeous and sexy.It is my first seeing her in such revealing clothes.Her entire collarbone and calves were exposed.I frowned, feeling a surge of inexplicable anger.What made me even angrier was that Kester was now intimately holding Anya’s shoulder while eyeing her adoration.I could tell from Kester’s eyes that he liked her.And the thought of them doing something unspeakable after finishing their meal irritated me.My heart is filled with complicated emotions.I coughed awkwardly and loosened my tie with an ice-cold expression.Tina’s POV:Seeing Evan’s sudden change of mood, I frowned.“Evan, what’s up?” I asked.“Nothing. Go ahead and place the order.”My face fell. I had just ordered.“Evan, why do you seem so distracted?”“No, I’m
Anya’s POV:“Anya will you marry me?”“Boom!”Kester words like a bomb, exploding in my mind. I looked at Kester in horror.Immediately, Kester took out a diamond ring the size of the dove’s egg from his pocket.As the music in the restaurant began, couples wearing a matching outfit turned up at the restaurant with a huge bouquet of roses in their hands.The Table Delight was a sanctuary for marriage proposals, and the restaurant would cooperate with customers who wanted to propose to set up the scene.Of course, the cost was prohibitive for the average person.“Anya, I give you my official confession today! I love you. Marry me!” With that, Kester knelt on one knee and offered the diamond ring to me.I was not mentally prepared for his proposal. “Kester get up. Please don’t do this!”Now that Kester suddenly confessed to me on a high profile, I was utterly dumbfounded.“Anya, we have known each other for 3652 days. Today is the 2520th day I loved you and there are days to go in the f
Anya’s POV:I was so scared out of my wits. My heart was thumping so hard that it almost leaped out of my chest.‘If he hit the truck on the opposite just now at the that speed, even the seat belts, we would have died. It doesn’t matter if I’m dead. But what about my three children?’ I thought inwardly.Hence, I didn’t dare to shout at him again. Instead, I pleaded in horror, “Evan, I beg you! Don’t do this…”“Vroom!”However, he started the car engine again and moved like an out-of-control beast roaring while rushing into the traffic.“Evan, please stop! I’m begging you…”However, it was as if he had not heard me, he kept speeding up.The car repeatedly overtook two cars on the road.It was nerve-wracking every time he overtook another car.Luckily, he was an adept driver.Whenever it seemed like our car was about to clash with others, we would end up brushing past each other.“Ah! Ah!”I closed my eyes in fear several times. I had hold on tightly at the handle above the car door, ev
Anya’s POV:I coughed violently and was completely drained. After being in the ocean for so long, I had also choked up on quite a lot of seawater.Even though I could float well, I certainly felt quite helpless as I had to drag such a well-built man with me.The two of us were wobbling in the water, only about ten meters away from the shore.If I were to swim back to the shore alone, I would probably do it in less than a minute.However, since I was dragging Evan with me, I struggled in the water for over ten minutes before finally reaching the shore.I continued to cough as I staggered up the steps on the shore and felt so exhausted that I was on the brink of collapse.I could not move Evan at all, much less bring him to the shore.In the end, I only dragged him a little so that the upper half of his body was lying on the steps, making sure that he wouldn’t drown or suffocate.“Evan woke up….” I called out while still coughing.Evan was half-conscious, but he didn’t seem able to open
