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:I know that they wanted to evict her from the Walter Group.At this point, I couldn’t pretend to be polite anymore. I sneered and said, “I am more anxious than anyone else about this matter with the company. I also hope our company can grow and prosper more than anyone else! Now is the time to solve the problem, not the time to blame each other! At the very least, the financial growth of the Walter Group last year increased by 5%! To make a compromise, even if I am not qualified for the position of chairman, I will automatically withdraw from the Walter Group after three years. You can still benefit from the betting agreement, so your loss will covered. Don’t worry! You guys will certainly make profit. I don’t understand what’s there to worry about. When I make money, all of you will benefit from it. Even if I lose money, I will lose myself and you won’t be involved. I am under much more pressure than you guys.”This was the first time I was so angry during the conference.
Anya’s POV:The next day, come, I went to the company early in the morning.Today, I was going to discuss with the director about changing the company’s name.The executives and Mr. Paul and Mr White also arrived at the conference room.“Dear directors, after a night of careful consideration, I want to change the name of Walter Group’s Brain Industrial Co. Ltd. to Golden Rule Technology.”When everyone heard this, they looked at each other, thinking that they had heard wrongly. “Huh? Changed the company’s name?”“That’s not wide option, right? This name, Brain Industrial, was personally given by your grandfather. Moreover, the company has been business for half a century, and its reputation has already been established after decades of efforts. How can we dismantle or own brand?”Mr. White couldn’t sit still anymore and retorted anxiously, “That’s right! How can the company’s name be changed casually? The signboard of an old company can’t be changed hastily!”I paused for a few second
Anya’s POV:He foamed at my mouth, but he still didn’t stop scolding me aggressively.Seeing my father being cruel like this, I was heartbroken. “Is there an old man like you? Is there father like you? You didn’t even hesitate to push your daughter to the edge.”“Oh, you know that I am your father. You know, I am your father now. I won’t acknowledge you as a daughter. Didn’t you break up to relationship with me? I, Frank, do not have a daughter like you!”I took a deep breath. She was so angry that my heart was trembling. However, he was already so sick. If I provoked him again, he would probably die of anger.I took a deep breath to hide my tears. “Dad, leave the company quickly and stop fooling around!”“Why I shouldn’t? I am going to fight you to the death. You destroyed Tina. You caused my family to be separated. I won’t let you have an easy time. He scolded.Frank’s POV:Due to a cerebral infarction, I was now a hemiplegic. It was even more difficult for him to stand up on my fee
Anya's POV:Although I had announced in front of the media that I had cut ties with Frank, he was my father after all. I shouldn’t take thorough measures against him.After the trouble accused him, the Walter Group's reputation could not get any worse. A company name change was necessary.The Internet was filled with news about me angering her father to the point that he became paralyzed, driving her sister crazy, and sending her stepmother to prison.Because of such news, there was nothing I could clear my name.A ringing sound was heard.My phone rang again.“Hello, Rose, what’s up?”When I saw that it was a call from Rose, my heart was in my mouth again.On the other hand, Rose’s voice was a little grim. “Miss Walter, come to the M city immediately! $2 million was taken from the factory’s account. This money was set aside for the payment of taxes. Now the accountant has absconded with the money, it was troublesome with the taxes can’t be paid.”“I got it.”“Also, the renovations fr
Coral’s POV:At the Carter Group, I began to report on how they had attacked the Walter Group during this period of time.“Mr. Carter, the share price of the Walter Group has plummeted in the stock market.. If we attack them one more time, they will be completely dis-listed. Once they withdraw from the market, it won’t be long before they declare bankruptcy. Also, several important higher-ups of the Walter Group have been poached my the Carter Group. If these important executives leave the Walter Group, the situation will worsen for the Walter Group. The company won’t last long then.”He smiled, “Very good.”I continued to report. “Miss Waters factory in M city has almost made loss over $2 million. The accountant has already taken the money and gone out of the country. He probably won’t come back for the rest of his life.”After hearing this, he crossed his arms, and a sinister smile appeared in his eyes.At this rate, Miss Walter would go bankrupt in less than two years.“This isn’t
Evan’s POV:Very soon, Gael and Coral rushed over with some bodyguards!“Evan has been shot!”“Mr. Carter, Mr. Carter, how are you?”“I am fine!” I sucked in a sharp breath and staggered to my feet.Fortunately, I was wearing a bulletproof vest.I was shot four times in the back!Even though it didn’t penetrate, the pain was still intense. My back displayed four swollen marks as evidence of the shot.“Call the police now!”“Thank God, Evan… Boohoo…” Martha cried, and couldn’t catch her breath.This was an accident to her.She has been keeping a low profile and traveled around the world alone. Although she had met bad people, this was the first time she had been kidnapped.“Martha, they have not been done anything to you yet?”“No, I am just scared.”“Don’t be afraid, you are safe now!”“Let’s send Mr. Carter and Princess to the hospital!”Although Martha was now seriously injured, she got some wounds on her skin. I was also injured. We need to go to the hospital.Half an hour later, I
Evan’s POV:When the kidnapper heard, this he handed the phone to Martha.Martha’s panicked voice came from the other end of the phone. “Evan save me. I am scared. I don’t want to die.”My heart sank. “Martha, don’t be afraid. I am coming to save you!”“Yes, Evan, please save me. I want to go home. Boohoo!”Before Martha could say anything, the kidnapper gagged her again.After confirming that Martha was still alive, I felt a little relieved.“Mr. Carter, can you relax now? Your girlfriend is still alive and well. If you continue to hesitate, you can’t be sure what will missing from her body.”“Don’t hurt her. I am going to South Bridge now.”Twenty minutes later, I drove to the South Bridge again.The total length of the bridge was about a few kilometers. It was the X city sea bridge that connected V City and M City.Below the bridge was the sea.I waited on the bridge for more than ten minutes, but no one came.“Are they coming?” I thought as I looked at my watch. Another ten minute
Kester’s POV:“Hey! Hey!”I frowned. I hated Evan even more.I thought Evan was a heartless man who certainly be punished one day.Although Anya and woken up, she was extremely weak. She was still having a fever and her mind was a mess.“Jason, Jerry, Flora. I missed you so much…”I pushed the wheelchair to Anya’s bed. “Anya…”She looked up slightly and asked gently, “Kester, have you called him? How was it? Will he bring over my kids?”“Um…” My eyes flickered, not knowing how to answer.Looking at my troubled expression, she smiled sadly. She seemed to know that Evan had refused to let her see the kids.“How is it? When will the children come over? I really want to see children now!”My eyes darkened. I didn’t want anyone to be too disappointed. I was even more afraid that she would be sad when she heard that the children had not been sent overseas.“Anya, for now, you need to take care of yourself. I just asked the doctor, and he said that you need to rest well. Moreover, the childr
Evan’s POV:Around 9:00 PM, I returned to the Sherane Bay Villa in a heavy mood.I was worried about children’s safety now. I had to send them to a safe place.Upon spotting my return, the children hurriedly approached me to deliver the news. “Daddy, we have discussed crucial clue…”I looked at the children, my expression burdened. “Jason, Jerry, Flora, there is something I need to tell you about.”“Daddy, what it is?”“I want to send you guys overseas for a period of time. You are leaving tonight.”“Huh?” The three children looked at each other.Jason said solemnly, “Daddy, we have a big discovery. I have repaired the surveillance data. Look, this is the bad guy who planted a bomb in Mommy’s car.”I frowned and reached out to touch my son’s head.That becomes inconsequential.I was already aware that it was the same group who had planted the bomb in Anya’s car and abducted Martha.The most important thing was now to ensure the safety of the children.These Kidnappers seemed to be ver
Evan’s POV:I was preparing the cash.The number of money was too big, and the bank also needed time to prepare the cash.We had to go to different banks.It took more than a dozen assistants an entire due to raise the cash.With so much money added together, it weighed more than a ton. It was neatly packed into more than ten boxes.“Mr Carter, the cash is ready.”I took a look. The money was all in the passcode box and neatly placed in the truck!The money didn’t matter much to me.What saddened me was the loss of Precious Pearl and nearly three hundred carats of raw diamond!I spent nearly $600 million on them in the auction.Those two treasures were invaluable. There was the possibility I would never be able to retrieve them.Beep!The kidnappers called again.I calmly answered the call. “Hello!”On the other end of the phone, the sinister voice sounded as usual. “Mr. Carter, you are very cooperative. You didn’t call the police.”I spoke directly, “The money and items are prepared.
Evan’s POV:“$200 million in cash?” I was shocked.That was a lot of money.“Why? Have you regretted it?”I tried my best to suppress my anger and said slowly, “it is indeed difficult to raise the cash. Even if I can raise it for you, I have to mobilize a few trucks. Are you sure you can take so much money when you escape?”The kidnapper smiled darkly again. “Hehe, Mr. Carter. I will take a step back. If you don’t have so much cash, you can pay us in other forms.”When I heard this, my frown deepened. “For example?”I heard that you got a Precious Pearl in the audition on a two-hundred-carat pink diamond. They should be worth $200 million.”Hearing this, I couldn’t help but frown.“This was the ultimate treasure of the Carter family.“No, I can give you the money, but not this.”“You can’t?” The kidnapper seemed to sing his hand and slapped Martha.“Smack!” There was a crispy sound.On the other under the line, Martha whimpered.“Clap! Clap!”“Ahh!” Martha’s scream was very miserable.
Evan’s POV:When Princess Martha saw the news on TV, she could not help but question me.“Evan, who is she?”“She is my family, my children’s mother.”“Evan, I don’t mind.“Martha, I am sorry. I love my ex-wife. I can’t marry you. I will arrange a plane to send you back to Novlis right now.”“No, I am not going back.”“It’s not up to you.”“Mr. Carter, bad news.”“What happened?”“Princess Martha ran away from the airport. She is missing now!”“What? How did this happen?”No matter what, Martha was a princess of Novlis. She was not familiar with X city. What if something happened to her?“Princess Martha said she needed to use the bathroom. So, I waited outside the ladies’ room. But she didn’t come out after and I had been waiting for half an hour. When our people went in to check, Princess Martha was already gone.”“Hurry up and find her. Send all our people out to to look for her. We must find her as soon as possible. I will join you guys to look for her. Hurry up and go! Don’t come
Evan’s POV:As the two were arguing, a doctor in a white gown and mask walked over, followed by four series-looking nurses. The doctor looked at us and warned us sternly. “You are in the hospital now. Please don’t make such a noise. It will affect the patients.”“Humph!” Kester and I looked at each other with disdain.“Doctor, when will Anya woke up?”“If she continues to sleep like this, will she become a vegetable?”The doctor replied with a serious expression. “The patient is in critical condition and needs to be undergo such emergency surgery. Calm down. You don’t have to worry so much.”We both were stunned.The doctor seemed to be a little strange.Without saying anything else, he walked into the intensive care unit with the nurses.A short while later, they wheeled Anya out.Kester asked nervously, “Doctor, where are you going to the surgery? You didn’t say anything about the surgery before.”“We observed in the monitoring room and found that there was something wrong with the
Evan’s POV:I rushed to the airport.Princess Martha was sitting alone on the bench at the airport without any luggage.“Martha!” I called out in a deep voice.Princess Martha was overjoyed to see me.She immediately ran over and threw herself into my arms. “Evan, I know you would come. I know you would still love me.”I frowned. “Martha, why are you doing this? Go home now. I will go meet you after I am done with my business.”Martha no longer believed me. She shook her head, “No, I am not leaving. Evan, I love you. I want to marry you. Without you, I feel like life is meaningless. I will die without you!” With that, she began to cry.I felt so helpless. I warily looked around, afraid that the media would take photos of us. “Let’s go. I will send you to the hotel first.”When she heard that, she sniffed and followed me out.But I was worried,
