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
Anya’s POV:After Michael picked me up and brought me to the factory, I started dealing with the work there.I asked, “How is the company’s operation rate?”He replied, “Everything is going well. The business has been much better compared to last month.”I exclaimed. “That’s good. Bring me the most recent document and contracts!”“The contracts that need to be signed are already placed on your desk, and the reports are all prepared.” He said.“Thank you for your hard work.”“It’s what we should do!”In the morning, I finished the work in M city.At one o’clock in the afternoon, I hurried to the Green Town with Michael and Tatiana.I had rented to an office building in Green Town.The media company was all set up, and now all that was left for me to go there and sign the contract.During this time, Ro
Anya’s POV:Around one in the afternoon, I hurried back to the X city.Miranda had already packed the luggage for me.The next day, I arrived early to meet up with Kester in V city.They had it at V city airport.“Kester, have you booked the flight tickets?”“Yes, I have.” He sat in a wheelchair with a smile. Besides him were four bodyguards and two nurse workers.I also brought Tatiana, and the group of people met with each other at the airport.He stretched out his arm to me. “Oh, Anya, I miss you so much.”I hugged him intimately, “Me too!”He hugged me tightly and kissed me on the forehead. We looked at each other, smiled, and could not take our gentle eyes off one another.“What time is the flight?”“Ten o’clock!”“It is nine o’clock now. Let’s take a seat and wait.”“O
Anya’s POV:Seeing this, I frowned and took a deep breath.Although Princess Martha was dressed like a commander, I could still recognize her at a glance. After all, Princess Martha had just visited X city two months ago. The media reported the event and made a big story of it.Moreover, Princess Martha and Evan were wearing his and her clothes. It was obvious that they were a couple.It seemed that the pretty girl Flora was talking about was Princess Martha.“Even you had better take care of your friend. Bye.” I said and pushed the wheelchair to leave.I didn’t want to be entangled with Evan and sincerely wished him a new love.“Anya stop right there. I am, not done yet!” Seeing that I was about to leave, Evan pushed Princess Martha away.He took a step forward and grabbed my arm tightly.“Ouch.” I screamed out and was almost dragged to the ground.“Evan, we h
Anya’s POV:Although the City hospital was good, the Avery Women’s Hospital is a high-end maternity and children's Care Hospital. It specializes in taking care of pregnant women and infants.All the rich wives and celebrities in X city like to give birth there.“Oh, okay. I listen to you.” I said perfunctorily.I would go along with whatever Evan said now. Evan could do whatever he wanted.I had already made up my mind that I would not give birth to this child.And I most certainly would not get together with Evan.I had already secretly called Michael in the meantime, and asked him to deal with the factory in M city.At the same time, I called Brother Trumpet and said that I wanted to quit the media group.Now, I would take advantage of the time to raise as much cash as I could. The more the better.When my calf was healed, I would find a suitable time to leave Evan.“Why aren't you saying anything? Why are you acting strangely recently?”“Not at all!”Evan’s POV:I frowned. I still
Mark’s POV:I bought a few security guards and went straight to Miss Linken’s office.With a dark expression, I told Miss Linken about Evan’s decision.When Miss Linken heard this, she thought she had heard wrongly and was shocked. “What? Mr. Carter froze my shares and dividends? What’s going on?”I pulled a long face and said sternly, “Miss Linken, you violated the company’s rules. The company is now conducting a full investigation.”When Miss Linken heard this, she was even more enraged. “Are you kidding me? I am a director of the company.”“Your shares had been acquired by the company. You are no longer a shareholder of the Carter Group.”Miss Linken’s POV:I was completely dumbfounded when I heard this.I felt like a lightning bolt out of the blue. I was thunderstruck. It took a long time before I returned to my senses for a long time.“Are you kidding me? I have worked for the Carter Group for more than 30 years. I have been conscientious and willing to do anything.”“You are wro
Evan’s POV:I had returned to the midst of Miss Linken’s speech.I had left my proposal on the conference table.When he returned to retrieve it, I heard Miss Linken’s sarcastic remarks.This time, I was completely furious.When Miss Linken saw me, she also looked embarrassed. “Mr. Carter, why are you back again?”My eyes darkened. I ignored Miss Linken and took out a proposal lying on the conference table, leaving.In the past, I had always been polite to her because she was the older and senior member of the company. However, some people took advantage of their seniority and gossiped about me behind my back.More importantly, Miss Linken dared to criticize Anya.Miss Linken’s POV:After Evan left, Mr. Smith was somber, “I told you not to say much, but you don’t listen. Now you are in trouble.”My nostrils flared, and I adjusted my glasses. A trace of disdain appeared on my well-mannered face. “I am telling the truth. Anya might not be pregnant with Mr. Carter’s child. She is allowed
Jenny’s POV:Evan waved his hand to stop his bodyguard from approaching.“What do you want? I will give you five minutes. Tell me now.”My eyes turned red as tears flowed uncontrollably, “Evan, I will ask even one last time. Are you not going to give me a chance?”Evan frowned, “Jenny, I have told you many times that we are not compatible. Even if you ask me a hundred times, I will give the same answer!”“Evan, I don’t understand what is so good about Anya? A bitch like her has cheated on you so many times. Don’t you mind at all? Don’t feel disgusted. I look down upon you. I truly despise you…”Before I could finish, Evan’s expression suddenly changed. He said coldly, “Miss Garcia, this is my last warning. You can scold me however you want, but if you dare to slander Anya again, I won’t be courteous to you anymore.”I was so angry that my heart was about to explode. “Evan, did I say something wrong? You didn’t mind at all about Kester and her? You don’t mind that she is fooling around
Jenny’s POV:Ten minutes later, Jimmy entered the office with Marlowe.Marlowe walked in and looked at the mess on the ground. He teased, “What, who provoked Miss Gracia?”I rolled my eyes coldly and growled, “What brings the prestigious President Yanice here today?”A sly look appeared in Marlowe’s eyes as he said in a glib tone. “Miss Garcia, long time no see. I miss you.”I snorted, “If you have something to say, just say it.” I rolled my eyes arrogantly and impatiently.Marlowe might be one of the wealthy second generation, but he was not popular in the elite circle of the rich second generation.After all, Marlowe had been imprisoned for nine years. Moreover, his reputation was not good. The elite circle of affluent second generation was not very willing to associate with him.“Look at what you are saying, Miss Garcia. You are so distant…”
Anya’s POV:I frowned. “Evan, are you serious?”He looked solemn, “Of course. There is a piece of land in the back of the house that was bought a few years ago. It had just been used. It come handy now. We will build children’s playground for our children to play.”I frowned and looked at Evan, transfixed.“Also, I have thought about it. My next step is to invest in a school.”As he spoke, Evan touched his chin and said regretfully, “Tsk. Why didn’t I think of investing in this sector in the past? If we had invested earlier, it would be more convenient for the children. However, it's not too late. When they go to middle school and university, it will come in handy. I have already thought about it. When they were in middle school, I would send them overseas for education. During vacation, they can come back to X city for private classes.”I was completely speechless after heari
Anya’s POV:I was thinking silently on the hospital bed, not reacting to him. After receiving utensils from him, I ate mechanically.If I left him, I needed money.I plan to sell the properties in M city and Green town. At the same time, I would also sell the properties overseas.Evan had once given me black card. I had used part of it, but there was still over $20 million on it.I could use this time to cash out all these things and then choose the right time to leave him.Seeing that I only ate rice and didn’t pick any of the other dishes, Evan leaned over and peered at me few seconds. He asked suspiciously, “What’s wrong? Why do you look like this? Are you feeling unwell?”“I am fine. It’s just that my calf hurts a little,” I replied quietly.“I will call the doctors and tell them to prescribe you some painkillers.”“No need. It's not good to take too many painkillers!”When Evan heard this, he held my hand again. “Anya, I am sorry. I won’t force you anymore. If there is anything,
Anya’s POV:I didn’t reply. Due to the anesthetic, I was in a daze. I turned over slightly and continued sleeping.At 6:00 PM, Miranda came to deliver dinner with one servant.Jason, Jerry, and Flora all followed.As soon as the three children entered the ward, they couldn’t help but ask, “Mommy, do you have a baby?”I looked at my children and hesitated.The three little fellows didn’t know that I had experienced the moment of life and death when I jumped off the house today. They thought that it was only because I was pregnant that I was hospitalized.Of course, it was also because Evan ordered not to let anyone tell the children that I had jumped today.“Mommy, can I look at your belly?”“Is Mommy going to give birth to a little sister or brother again?”Evan replied on my behalf. “That’s right! Are you happy?”“Yes, if Mommy gives birth to a baby, will she still love us?”“Silly, of course!”Jason grinned, “I want a little sister.”Jerry chimed in, “I want a sister, too!”“Mommy,
Evan’s POV:What a surprise.I had wanted to have another child, but Anya refused. The last time Anya accidentally miscarried made me feel heartbroken.It was great that she is finally pregnant again.In the ward, I could not contain my joy. “Anya, are you awake?”Anya was lying on the hospital bed. Her calf was already injured, and she was a little out of her wits.I have forgotten about the conflict and argument just now. I excitedly shook Anya’s arm, “Anya, I have some good news for you.”Anya’s face was numb.I continued, “The doctor said that you are pregnant? We are having another baby.”Anya’s POV:When I heard this, my eyelids dropped slightly, but I still didn’t reply.The child came at the wrong time. I didn’t want to give birth to his child again.Evan buried his head in my belly, sticking close to this unborn child. “Anya, are you happy?”“I hope this child is a girl so Flora can have company. However, it doesn’t matter if we have a boy. Anywhere, the more, the better. Aft
