Kester’s POV:Anya’s phone rang non-stop every day.X city, M city, and Green Town all had a pile of work waiting for her to handle.I know that Anya’s career was in a rising phase and that she was extremely busy with work.Although I had more than enough money and Anya didn’t need to prioritize her career, I was not like Evan. I didn’t want to hinder Anya from pursuing what she wanted to do. I also understood that Anya wanted to fulfill her values.Therefore, I always supported the offered career.“Anya, why don’t you go and focus on your work from now?” I suggested.She smiled gently and reassured, “No, nothing is more important than your health. I will go back to work when you are feeling better.”I furrowed my brows, “But I am worried that if you continue like this, your work will be affected…”She replied, “It's fine. Even if I am not around, the higher-ups will take care of the company’s matter.”I smiled, “Anya, I am touched that you are sacrificing yourself for me.”“You silly
Evan’s POV:I felt a headache coming up upon hearing her words.Men were indeed fickle.Things that come too easily offer lost their allure. Princess Martha’s passionate and bold nature was indeed attractive in the beginning.But for men, this attraction was not just tempering novelty.Once the novelty wore off, it became nothing.However, considering Princess Martha’s prestigious status, I patiently continued to appease her.“Let’s forget about X city for now. It would be better for us to meet abroad after I finish my current work.” I patiently persuaded.Upon hearing this, her voice carried a hint of disappointment as she said, “Evan, are you afraid of being caught by the media?”“Mmm!” I ambiguously responded. “After all, you are a princess. If we were caught by the media, it would affect your reputation.” I explained.She instantly felt relieved and said joyfully, “Evan, don’t worry. Even if we are caught, I can marry you.”Upon hearing this, my head started to ache even more.The
Anya’s POVAfter hesitating for a moment, I sincerely took out a ring from my pocket.It was 9.9. carat heart-shaped pink diamond ring.It was the ring I had bought for Anya when I first confessed my love and proposed to her.Unfortunately, she didn’t accept it at that time.This time, I had my assistant find the ring for me.“Anya, this ring was specially bought for you. Would you… be willing to wear it?”She was stunned for a moment, but then smiled and reached out her hand. “Of course!”I laughed and looked at her affectionately, “By wearing this ring, it means you have accepted my proposal.”“Yes!” She nodded firmly.I felt a sense of relief and slid the ring onto Anya’s finger.Her fingers for long and slender, delicate and graceful.Illuminated by the light, the ring on her finger exuded an air of elegance and grandeur.“Anya, I love you.”“I love you too!” She smiled gently and put her face in front of me.I then deeply kissed her forehead.“For you, I will work hard on my reco
Evan’s POV:The moment she reached out, she revealed the diamond ring on her finger.Suddenly, my eyes fell on the diamond ring on Anya’s hand.My list twitched involuntarily.Anya had never liked wearing jewelry, so it was naturally impossible for her to spend money to buy a diamond ring.Moreover, this diamond ring was a pink diamond ring in the shape of a heart. It was worth at least two hundred thousand dollars. The Walter Group was currently in trouble now, and Anya would never spent such a large sum of money on a diamond ring.“What is that you’re wearing on your hand, Anya?” I asked abruptly.“It’s nothing!” She instinctively replied.My face paled, “Show it to me.”“Evan, can you please stop meddling in my affairs?”“Give me your hand,” I demanded, gripping Anya’s wrist and forcefully bringing her hand closer to my eyes.The diamond ring was a heart-shaped pink diamond. It must be incredibly expensive.My eyebrows raised, feeling an inexplicable wave of jealousy washed over me
Anya’s POV:The driver gets out first and opens the door.Jerry and Jason happily jumped out of the car. “Wow, this place is much nicer. We finally get to go home with Mommy.”“Yeah! It’s been so long since we had Mommy’s homemade dumplings. I have even dreamed about eating Mommy’s dumplings a few times.”I smiled and followed suit, getting out of the car. “Today, Mommy will make sure you enjoy a satisfying meal.”“Thank you, Mommy.”I had just called Miranda!I asked her to prepare the ingredients for the dumplings!After being away from my children for so long, I wanted to cook a meal for them with my own hands. The children loved my homemade dumplings, and I wanted to make them a special treat while I had the time.I led the children in front. Evan also got out of the car and followed.“What are you doing here, Evan?” I asked.“Nothing!”“Then why are you following us?” I questioned.When Evan heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said sarcastically, “Anya, you wouldn’t make me wa
Evan’s POV:I had never experienced such a satisfying and enjoyable eating experience before. Only the spaghetti made by Anya could satisfy my discerning taste buds.After finishing dinner, it was already 7:00 PM.Anya chatted with the children, completely ignoring me.Watching the warm and lively conversation between the mother and her three children, I felt increasingly left out. Jealousy crept up in my heart.“Cough! Cough!” I intentionally coughed heavily, trying to draw their attention.Unfortunately, Anya and the children were engrossed in their reunion, and no one paid attention to me.I touched my nose in annoyance and spoke in a cold tone, “Jerry, Jason, and Flora, it’s time to go back.”The three little ones’ smile vanished as soon as they heard it!The smile on Anya’s face also cooled down.Jason, with a hint of grievance, said, “Mommy, we want to stay here!”Anya gently comforted them. “Darling, you have to go to Kindergarten tomorrow.”“Mommy, we want to stay with you!” T
Evan’s POV:My head throbbed as I listened, and I furrowed in annoyance.“What did you say?”“I said, I am in the airport right now. Hurry up and come to pick me up.”“Didn’t I tell you that I will come to see you next week?”“I can’t wait, so I come to see you! Are you happy?”My head throbbed even more.Instinctively, I turned around and looked at Anya.She didn’t pay attention to who I was talking to but was engaged in the conversation with the children.“Evan, aren’t you coming to pick me up? I thought you would be happy!” Princess Martha’s tone carried a hint of disappointment.I felt helpless and could only grit my teeth and say, “Don’t wonder around. I will send someone to pick your right away.”“No, I want you to come to pick me up.”“I… I am busy right now.”She felt even more dejected upon hearing that. “Evan, do you not love me anymore? Or give me the address, and I will take a taxi myself!”I gave in and replied, “Never mind. I will come to pick you up. Don’t wander around
Evan’s POV:Looking at Princess Martha, with her wavy hair, captivating eyes, and seductive allure, I felt even more indifferent.To me, she was like an expensive and exotic dish. It might have been fresh and enjoyable for the first time.But after having it several times, I grew tired of it.If I had to eat this dish for the rest of my life, I would be even more intolerant.Marriage with Princess Martha required careful consideration.Although she was a Princess, the laws in their country heavily protected the rights of women.In the event of a divorce, women could be entitled to sixty percent of the assets.Moreover, prenuptial agreements were not accepted. If I married Martha, it would be a lifelong commitment.If we got a divorce, I would lose at least half of my fortune.Seeing my restless and troubled expression, she also looked grave, “Evan, don’t you want to marry me?”“It’s not that. I just feel that it’s too early to discuss this question now…She said furiously, “Evan, do y
She looked at me in frustration, “Zachary, can’t you think of the way for me? Can you bear to see me being unrequited like this? I don’t understand how I am inferior to that Anya?”“Who said you are inferior? You are the best.”“Then why doesn’t Evan like me?”I smiled awkwardly, “How would I know? Every man looks at women differently. If I was Evan, I would certainly choose you. I certainly won’t like Anya.”Jenny’s anger intensified upon hearing this. “Evan is completely blind. The Walter Group sisters have cast some shots of spells on him, especially Anya. I can’t for the life of me make out what he sees in her.”“I can’t help you with this .”She pouted and said coquettishly, “Zachary, can’t you help me think of a way to let them tear apart? If you don’t help me, I will tell Dad that you want to date that lu
Tina’s POV:Around ten in the morning, my phone rang.I picked up the phone and answered lazily, “Hello.”“Hello, Mr. Garcia, I am Tina.”I was sleeping with a girl in my arms.When I heard Tina's voice, I instantly lost my steepness and pushed the girl in my arms away. “Oh, Miss Walter, have you made up your mind?”“I have thought about it. I am willing to be your secretary, but I have two conditions.”“Tell me.”She pounded for a few seconds and deliberately pretentiously, “First, I won’t work after eight in the night.”When I heard this, I agreed without hesitation, “Okay!”“Secondly, I won’t accompany you to socialize with clients. I am only responsible for your daily work.”I smiled. “Hehe, what else?”“That’s all. If you agree, I will work for your company. I
Tina’s POV:My face turned red.Hearing his teasing, I felt even more upset.In the past, I was a socialite that everyone envied. But now I was nothing.“I can’t drink.”“Socializing is important for this position. If you don’t know how to drink, how can you be qualified for this job?”“Since that was the case, I had better get going.” After saying that, I turned around and wanted to leave.I didn’t want to do this job in the first place. I came over just because of Evan.I was glad that Zachary found me unqualified.“Tina, please wait.”“Mr. Garcia, is there anything else?”“PR representative manager is not suitable for you, but there is one more suitable job for you.” He smiled at me.“Really?”“Are you interested in being my secretary?”I was stunned. I looked up at
Tina’s POV:As Evan and Anya headed to M city, I saw an opportunity to take action. I believe it was a perfect moment to make my move.I have lived here before and was very familiar with it.“There must be many secrets in Evan’s study,” I thought.I looked around. There was no one around the study. I also knew the password to Evan’s study.I entered the password, opened the door of Evan’s study, and walked in.The study was impeccably organized with three computers neatly arranged on the desk along with an assortment of documents and a projector.I went straight to his desk!Evan has been busy with the Park and Sea project recently.The project in question was at Green Bay, M city, where a local municipality had proposed the construction of a large amusement park.The land nearby had also become a hot topic for real estate tenders!Evan was also a contender in the bidding
Evan’s POV:I was still immersed in the wedding utmost repair. I fantasized about holding a wedding with Anya. I would make sure it would be particularly grand and unforgettable.“Are you touched to see them getting married?”Anya’s eyes darkened, and she replied coldly, “No!”“Really?” I turned to look at Anya.Her side profile was beautiful. Under the sunlight, her skin was so fair that it was almost transparent.However, there was an unconcealable sadness in her expression.I blinked and guessed that she might be thinking about Kester again.“Did you think something unhappy?”Anya didn’t answer. The melancholy on her face deepened.My jealousy flared up upon seeing this, and my expression easily turned gloomy.I had loved her so much that I had made a big concession for her. But she was still thinking about another man. That hurt my pride
Anya’s POV:I couldn’t stand out anymore, “Evan, don’t act like this.”“Like what?”“Don’t be so mean. You are embarrassing her.”“Being nice to her is unnecessary.”“Forget what I said. I am going to M city tomorrow.”“Okay, I will go with you!”“You are going with me?” I was shocked.“What’s wrong? Can’t I?”“No, but what’s the point? I am going to attend Rose’s wedding.”Before I could finish, Evan’s face darkened. “I know. So what? Can’t I go there with you?”“Alright, alright. You can go if you want to.”‘However, no one would welcome you!’ I thought inwardly.*****A few luxury cars row over one after another and stop at the villa area in Green Town. Twenty or Thirty bodyguards go
Anya’s POV:I was indeed very hardworking and did a good job.If Evan had not undermined my efforts and constantly hindered my progress, the Walter Group could have thrived under my leadership.Unfortunately, this despicable Evan had brought me down from my position as a strong and influential female leader. I was a little annoyed and kept shaking the graphite in my hand.Tina looked at me cautiously and asked, “Anya, what are you doing now?”“Oh, I am making some flour with graphite.”She was puzzled, “Flour? Why bother to do that? Wouldn’t it be easy to just buy some?”“Handmade flour tastes better. Evan had a bad stomach.”Tina’s POV:“You are so nice to him.” I braced myself to praise her, but my heart was filled with hatred.This could have been my thing to do. Evan should have belonged to me.However, all of this was snatched away by Anya.I hid the disappointment and hatred in my face and forced a smile. “Anya, let me help you!”“You don’t have to.”“I will help you. You fill t
Anya’s POV:When I heard this, I subconsciously frowned.It was not easy to find a job in this field.Although Tina graduated from a prestigious University, she had no working experience, which financial management required.Moreover, she would have to start from the basics. The higher-ups were all elites who had working for a long time.“Anya, is it hard to find such a job? I can start from basics.” Tina said as she looked at me.I knew the purpose of her words was equal to telling me that she wanted to work in the Carter Group. She hoped that I would persuade Evan, as she knew once I bought it up, Evan would not say no.“I will see if I can help you.” I looked at her thoughtfully.When Tina heard this, she was easily delighted. “Thank you, Anya.”“You are welcome. Have some juice.”“Okay,” Tina picked up the juice and took a sip.Jason watched coldly from the dining table. She didn’t like Tina at all.After drinking the fruit juice, she took the initiative to help the servant clean
Anya’s POV:I was speechless. I was so angry that I had nothing else to say.“What? Are you angry?”“How could I not be angry?” I thought.“How about this? If you behave well and make me happy, I might agree to let you go.”“I am sorry, I won’t.”‘Then it’s not negotiable!”“Fine, I won't go.”I lay on the bed angrily, too lazy to take a shower.“Are you really angry?”“Evan you are boring. Can you stop annoying me?”“Hey, why don’t you call me something nice? That should be okay.”I rolled my eyes. “What do you want to hear?”“What do you think is nice?”I rolled my eyes resentfully. I know he just wanted to hear me call him Hubby.Although I hated to do so, I still called out, “Hubby! Is that enough?”When Evan heard this, he snickered in my heart.However, he still maintains an indifferent look.“Who asked you to call this?”“So what do you want to hear?”“Well, call me Daddy!”I instantly widened her eyes and looked at me as if I was looking at a monster.This bastard took advanta
