Evan’s POV:I returned to the company in frustration.As soon as I entered the office, my phone rang before I could sit down to catch my breath.A ringing sound was heard.It was Princess Martha’s persistent phone call again!I looked at the phone call and frowned!To me, it was easy to pick up girls, but too hard to shake them off.Sometimes, I just wanted some novelty, but women always fell for me, and there was no end to their pestering.I was not careful, women would claim the moral high ground and condemn me as a scumbag.Especially for a man of my status. If I looked at anyone for a second, it would make the other party’s heart flutter. She would think that she had a chance with me.Of course, I had never thought of myself as a good man who was chaste and pure.A ringing sound was heard again.The phone kept ringing.I exhaled in frustration and braced myself to answer the call. “Hello, Martha.”Her disappointed voice comes here from the other end of the line. “Evan, what took y
Evan’s POV:I was in my office when I received a call from John Garcia.He was the grandfather of Zachary and Jenny.He was the Ship King of X City. He was almost 90 years old and was highly respected. His net worth was several billion dollars. He was far from the same era as my grandparents. He could be considered to be on good terms with the Carter family.“Evan, let’s meet for a coffee!”“Okay!”I was still very respectful to the old man.After all, he was older and more experienced. Among the wealthy in the entire X city, everyone had shown him some respect. Furthermore, he was friends with the patriarch of the Carter family.The next day, I arrived at the coffee estate as agreed!This was a private coffee estate filled with expansive coffee plants. The coffee estate was surrounded by mountains and water, and an artificial lake had been built. At the end of the lake was a villa that occupied more than half of the hill.In a place like X city, where every inch of land was expensive,
Evan’s POV:My hand, which was holding the coffee cup froze in midair.Something seemed to have stuck in my mind.He continued, “You are the most outstanding boy among the younger generation. Your grandfather would probably smiling in his grave when he saw how well you were developed his business. When I reunite with him in the after world, I am sure hes flaunt that he had an outstanding grandson!”I was silent! My cheeks burned. To be honest, I felt a little uncomfortable being praised.I was not the wealthiest man in X city. I could be said to be a bellwether of the business world! Money was just a number to me.The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.I should pursue a higher realm and do things that would contribute greatly to society.“As the saying goes, a gentleman doesn’t fight with women. There are so many meaningful things that can be done. Why do you have to hold it again
Coral’s POV:I went to report the progress of the past two days.“Mr. Carter, when the stock market opened tomorrow, we can give the Walter Group another blow through the Walton Street financial market. The Walter Group will soon collapse completely.”“In addition, we have already bribed the quality inspection department. They will determine that the Walter Group’s products have exceeded the limit for formaldehyde and do not met international safety requirements. Once this news was exposed, the Walter Group’s reputation will certainly be beyond repair!”“Coral…” He frowned, looking troubled.I paused, thinking that he thought that the method was not vicious enough, I said, “Mr. Carter, we can only take it one step at a time currently! But don’t worry, I will think of other ways. I will certainly bring down Walter Group…”“Do you think I am too cruel t
Kester’s POV:“Ellen, our relationship ends here. I am already engaged!”“I know, I know. Mr. Helsen, don’t worry. I am not asking for any status, and won’t cause any trouble. I just want to make you happy.” As she spoke, her restless little hands reached out again.“There is really no need. I will tell you one last time. Our relationship ends here. From now on, you are only an artist in my company, and I only your boss.”“Mr. Helsen, do you really hate me that much?”“It’s not that I hate you, but I have a girlfriend now. I don’t want to do anything that might let my girlfriend down.”She laughed. “Mr. Helsen, when have you become so naive? You are staying chaste for Anya here. Do you still think she chaste for you?”I was speechless and stunned.“Things have always been ambiguous between Anya and Evan. Now that you are
Anya’s POV:Even if the Walter Group changed its name, the stench of its tarnished reputation remained. Everyone knew that Walter's group was teetering on the edge of collapse. Who would be foolish enough to step into the role of a sacrificial lamb eagerly?Mr. White’s face turned grave. “Our only option now is to urgently sell of the portion of our shares to raise the funds. It’s the quickest way to get our hands on the cash. Otherwise, if we can’t gather the funds within a month, Mr. Carter will petition the court to freeze the Walter Group’s assets, leading to even more complications.”My eyes grew somber. With no other options left, I had no choice but to make a desperate Campbell and take a drastic major.Although I was reluctant to part with the shares my grandfather had left for me, I knew there was no other way to tackle the imminent crisis.“Alright then! Let me know that the Walter Group is
Anya’s POV:After Rose exited the room, my phone started ringing.“Hello, Kester!”From the other end of the line, Kester’s tender voice comes through. “I heard the new company had its opening ceremony today. How did it go? Was it successful?”I smiled at Kester’s video on the phone. “Yes, its went smoothly. Thank you, Kester.”“There you go again. We are getting married soon, and you are still formal with me.Feeling a tad self-conscious, I playfully brushed my hair behind my ears. “I have wrapped things up here and made the part. I have already booked my flight for next Monday. I will fly over with you next Monday.”“Isn’t that so soon?”“Not at all.”“Alright then.”“The company just had its grand opening, and things are still hectic. I won’t keep you on the phone too long.”“Okay.”After hanging up the phone, I prepared to meet Brother Trumpet and take the opportunity to discuss the company’s business strategy.Trumpet’s POV:I was busy welcoming the Internet celebrity guests who
I arrived at Central Plaza Station at 9:30 AM the next day, well ahead of time.With the few insulated containers in my hand, I carried the cake and dumplings I had personally made.I couldn’t make up for everything I had done wrong, but I wanted to do what I could do for my children.At precisely 10:00 AM, a chauffeur-driven luxury car pulled up. Followed by a nanny car stopping in front of me.When the door opened, Jason and Jerry hopped out of the car.Shortly after, the nanny emerged, cradling Fora in her arms.“Mommy…” Jason and Jerry called out in their usual murder.I felt a pang in my heart, my eyes welling up with tears. I hurriedly approached my children. “Jason Jerry, Flora, I have missed you so much. Do you miss Mommy?”“Yes!”“Mommy…” The three little ones looked a bit weary as they looked at me.Although, the children still showed happiness, an invisible barrier seemed to have formed.After being separated for such a long time, even the strongest bond could slowly dissip
