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
Coral POV:I came out of the office and was in a cold sweater.Mark asked curiously again, “What is Mr. Carter mad about this time?”“Well, he might be having an issue with Miss Walter again?”“Didn’t, he didn’t break up with Miss Walter?”I sighed with a frown, “Yeah! But who knows what Mr. Carter is thinking?”“I heard that Mr. Carter and Princess Martha are secretly dating. Mr. Carter has won the Princess’ heart. Why is he still so obsessed with Miss Walter?”I curled my lips and said, “That’s tough love! The more he loves her, the more eager he will blame her!”Mark looked grim. “So what we do now?”“Mr. Carter gave an order and wanted the Walter Group to go bankrupt within a year.”“Fuck! That’s mean.”“I agree. What kind of grudge does Mr. Carter have against
Anya’s POV:Rose called me right after I hung up with Daisy.I had no choice but to answer the call again. “Hello, Rose.”An urgent voice comes from the other end of this phone. “Miss Walter, there is a problem with the tax at the factory of M city. We have got a huge amount of back tax has to pay.”When I heard this, I was stunned. I had been telling the finance department to pay taxes on time. How could I evade taxation?“Didn’t the finance department always pay the tax on time?”Rose sighed. “The finance minister Mr. Smith has already run away. We can’t find him now. He is not answering his phone or replying to his message. He’s completely out of contact.“What?” I felt a chill in my heart.“The. Company’s book value is shot over for $1.4 million and Mr. Smith has embezzled over $2 million from the company. Michael has already called the police. The police are investigating.”Hearing this, I was shocked and could not be more pissed off.“Okay, I will see. I will return as soon as p
Anya’s POV:Therefore, after I said it once, the children remember it.“After the sauce is ready, cook the noodles. After the noodles are cooked, fish them out and mix the sauce on them.”“Oh, it looks like it’s quite simple.”“Yes, make sure to control the heat properly. Don’t let the tomatoes burn.” I advised as I demonstrated by cooking process to my son.“Let me try.” Jerry volunteered.I patiently instructed my son guiding him through the basics. Before long Jerry gaps the fundamentals.Time passed quickly. It was already 10:00 p.m.I went back to my room to sleep.For the past few days, Evan didn’t sleep in the bedroom. I felt relaxed and I slept earlier.Jason’s POV:Around 10:30 a beam of light showed from outside the courtyard.Jerry got up. “Jason Daddy’s back!”“Really?”“Yeah! I heard Daddy’s car.”“It's time to make spaghetti.”“Yes, yes.”The two of us made our way to the kitchen, tiptoeing quietly. Fortunately, the Carter household was quite spacious, and Daddy rarely v
Anya’s POV:Around 3:30 PM, Jason and Jerry return from the school.My arm injury might not have healed completely, but it was still reliably easy to make spaghetti.Since the children wanted to eat, I would certainly do it.“Mommy, we are back.”“Are you hungry? I will make you spaghetti?”Jason shook his head, “I am not hungry yet. Mommy, can you cook later?”“Yeah, sure!”“Then we will go practice riding now.”When I heard this, I frowned, “Jason, your arm hasn’t fully healed yet. The splint is still on. How can you ride a horse again?”“What if you fall again? Stay away from the hoarse for the time being?”“It’s okay. My arm is much better. It doesn’t hurt anymore.”“No! Be a good boy. Go finish your homework.”“Okay!”Jason replied upset and turned to return to his room.“Jerry, you are not allowed to ride during this period either. You have to stay with your brother.”“Mommy, my arm is fine. Why can’t I ride a horse?”I squatted down and looked at my son calmly. “When Jason sees
Anya’s POV:The servant prepared breakfast as usual. I woke up early in the morning and called the children for breakfast.Although I didn’t have to do everything myself, I still wanted to take care of the children as much as I could as a mother.“Jason, Jerry, hurry up and come over for breakfast.”The two little guys dawdled over, “Mommy, did you change the dressing on your arm?”“Yes, yes. I have already changed it.”“Oh!”As we were talking, Evan strode down the stairs.As usual, he was wearing a suit and looked noble and elegant. However, his face was dark as ice and exuded a murderous aura.When he passed by the dining room, the two little guys greeted him in unison, “Good morning, Daddy!”“Morning!” Evan replied.Without even looking at me, he passed through the dining room and walked out.Similarly, I didn’t give him a second glance. I treated him like an air.The two little guys looked at each other and exchanged glances. “Mommy, can you make spaghetti for us this afternoon?”
Evan’s POV:I was furious. I pressed her down in bed.I love conquering her in bed.However, this time, Anya didn’t resist. She was like a soulless doll.“Anya, I am now your creditor. I ordered you to speak to me. Don’t force me to break the contract, and don’t fight me head-on.”Anya closed her eyes. She didn’t resist or struggle.I could not bear to torture her and felt dejected.“Alright! You won. Do whatever you want! Anya, let me tell you one more time. Don’t think that I won’t be able to live if I leave you! Even without you, I am still me, underlying and unafraid.”I declared, my voice filled with growing aggression.In the final burst of anger, I forcefully slammed the door behind me and stormed off.Since she was ignoring me, I would let her be.In any case, I had to work to do. In the past, when I was happy, I would bury myself in work.
Anya’s POV:This time, I would never compromise again.Flora also pleaded for mercy. “Mommy, Daddy has already apologized to you. Can you forgive him? Mommy, I bag you. Please forgive, Daddy.”I was still unmoved.Evan had used our child as leverage, manipulating me with money and resorting to unethical tactics to control me.I had had enough.If I took a step back now, I would lose myself again which would lead the internal damnation.The Doctor came over to change the dressing again. The prescription was ready. “Mr. Carter, the patient has lost too much blood and will be staying in the hospital for two days.”“Okay.”“Anya, do you want some water?”I didn’t answer.“Drink some water.” Evan eagerly poured a glass of water.Lillian could not stand it anymore. “Mr. Carter, you didn’t sleep last night. Let me take care
Evan’s POV:I took a deep breath and said timidly, “Alright, alright, alright. I will die, alright?”While she was losing her mind, I jumped onto the table and rolled to the opposite of Anya like a cop.Then, I grabbed her arm firmly and snatched the broken wine bottle from her hand.“Let go of me! Evan, I am going to kill you!”I twisted her hand and hugged her tightly, “Alright, alright. I will let you kill me. Your hand is bleeding now. We are going to the hospital now.”“Can you kill me after your hand is bandaged?”“Let go of me, I will kill you right now.” Anya resisted with all her might.“Are you feeling better?”“Let’s go to the hospital!”Saying, that I forcefully carried her up.Anya’s arm was dripping with blood. Under the dim light. It was especially terrifying.I was terrified. I carrie
Evan’s POV:Having received a slap, Anya looked at me coldly,After hitting Anya, I felt my palm slightly numb. I was instantly sober.I couldn’t believe that I hit Anya again.The atmosphere instantly dropped to the freezing point. The girls huddled in a corner in fear.Half a minute later, Anya took a deep breath. Her anger reached it’s boiling point. With all her strength, she unleashed a powerful slap across my face. The sound was re-vibrating in the room.“Slap!” I also got a heavy slap.I was stunned for a moment. I looked at Anya in disbelief. My eyes almost spitting fire.Seeing this, everyone covered their mouths.After all, it was big news that I was slapped in public by my ex-wife.My bad temper was famous throughout the city. I had always been the one who hit others, and no one had ever dared to hit me back.My anger boiled within me, fueling my desire for revenge.
Evan’s POV:I was also a little tipsy. I subconsciously looked at my watch. “It’s already past ten. I should go home.”I didn’t want to drink with Jenny.I know she liked me. I didn’t want to give her any chance to flirt.“Evan, I have just arrived. Why are you leaving?” She looked disappointed.“That’s right! Jenny just arrived. If you leave, it will be too disappointing. You can’t leave. You promised to stay up all night tonight!”The siblings try to persuade me not to go back.Anya’s POV:I couldn’t get through to Evan so I called Coral.Coral quickly picked up the call. “Hello, Miss Walter.”“Coral, is Evan still in the company?”“Mr. Carter has already gotten off work and left the company a long ago.”“Then, where did he go? Did he go out to socialize?”&ldqu
Anya’s POV:My heart tightened and I quickly touched my daughter’s body.It was also very hot as well.The laboratory report from Flora showed that her platelets ratio was very low. The doctors said that she might have a leukemia attack and that having a fever would make her immunity even weaker.“Flora, I will take you to the hospital now,” I said as I wanted to pick my daughter up.“Rumble!”Crack!It began to rain heavily outside, and muffled thunder rumbled. Lighting tore through the night sky, one after another, and strong light showed into the house.“Mommy, I am scared.” Flora was most afraid of thunder. Every time there was a thunder, she would tremble in fear.“Don’t be afraid! Mommy is here!”“Mommy, where is Daddy? I miss Daddy.”Most daughters would feel safe with their father by their side. Flora was no exception. She
