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
Evan’s POV:“That woman sure is long-winded and annoying!” Grandma said.To be honest, Grandma had nothing but disdain for a woman like Mia.When Karl was alive, she had been kind and tolerant to the Walter family, all for the sake of Karl.However, now that Karl was dead, the Carter family had no relation with Frank and his wife anymore.Grandma was merely maintaining a good relationship with them for the sake of Karl.However, Grandma Mia simply had no tact.“How is Anya?” I asked.“Anya?” Grandma was stunned.I frowned. My lips quivered as I muttered, “She was in the accident with me.”“But I didn’t see her!”Hearing that, I struggled to sit up and get out of bed.Seeing this, Grandma quickly stopped me. “You have to lie down. You are still on the IV drip! You have been hurt so badly. Where do you think you are going?”“I’m going to see her.”“Don’t move. Let’s just call the nurse over and ask about her!” With that Grandma presses the peeper.A minute later, a nurse hurried in.“Mr
Tina’s POV:That year, Grace had brought Evan to the Walter family residence for a visit.When it was around lunchtime, Evan was swimming in the pool.He suddenly got a cramp in his foot and drowned.Although the Walter family had servants, unlike the Cater family, we didn’t have that many housekeepers and bodyguards.Hence, when Evan was drowning, Anya was the first person to spot him.As the situation was so critical, Anya dove in to save him before she could call for help.After rescuing him out of the pool, Anya ran off to call for help, and I rushed over to Evan’s side to take care of him.After he woke up, he asked me, “Did you save me?”I knew he had misunderstood the situation but nodded anyway.It was also from that day onward that his attitude toward me had completely changed.Despite being five years older than me, he refused to date anyone else, because he had been waiting for me to grow up.“After all these years… why is he suddenly asking such a question? Could it be tha
Evan’s POV:Hearing her groans, I quickly let her go.“Anya…”I wanted to say that I was sorry, but those words just couldn’t come out of my mouth.I simply couldn’t bring myself to say that I was sorry.After all, it was not my nature to be subservient to women.It had always been the women who surrounded me, racking their brains how to please me.All I had to do was give them the slightest signal and a whole bunch of women would swoop toward me.So for me, lowering my head humbly in front of a woman was akin to taking my life.Anya’s POV:Evan had a thick wide bandage on his head, and half of his face was swollen. Besides, he was also clad in a hospital gown.Truthfully, he looked a little creepy.I looked at him coldly and said, “It’s past three o’clock in the morning. What the hell are you doing here?”“I have just come to see you!”“You must be crazy! If you don’t leave soon, I will call the cops!”“Then go ahead and call the cops!”I was furious. I swallowed and frowned, asking,
Bodyguard’s POV:The next morning, we all were in a frenzy.“Mr. Carter is missing.”“Call Mr. Carter immediately and ask where is he.”“He didn’t bring his phone. According to the GPS in his car, he should be in the area, but there is no sign of him.”“What are you guys even hired for? How could you not follow him?”“You very well about Mr. Carter’s temper. If he doesn’t allow anyone to follow him, who would dare to do so?”“So, what should we do now? Where could Mr. Carter has gone? How would we answer when old Mrs. Carter asked about him later?”“Oh my God. Evan Carter hasn’t been kidnapped, has he?”“What else can we do? Go and find him before its too late.”We all were panicking. After all, it’s our job to protect Mr Carter. 24 hours a day.Now that he was missing, there was no way we wouldn’t be afraid.The previous night, Mr. Cater wouldn’t let any of us follow him. We didn’t dare to disobey him, nor did we dare to let him out of our sight.Thus, what all of us could do was to
