Anya’s POV:“Hello, Marinda!”From the other end of the line, her voice carried a sense of urgency. “Anya, you forget to grab your passport. Shall I bring you to right away?”I instinctively smacked my forehead upon hearing this. “Oh, gosh, I completely forget.”“Miranda, can you bring it to me in the elevator lobby? I will be waiting for you there.”“Sure thing.”I let out a yawn and stepped out of the car, heading towards the elevator lobby.In a hurry to leave earlier, I had absentmindedly left my passport on the dressing table, forgetting to pack it into my bag.The car’s gauge in needles began their countdown.After I stepped out of the car, I slowly walked approximately 90 to 120 feet, when suddenly a loud and ear-shattering explosion echoed behind me with a resounding “boom!”The blast from the exploding bomb sent car glass fragments flying through the air, accompanied by an intense wave of heat that violently propelled me off the ground.“Boom.”I instinctively lunged forward,
Evan’s POV:My heart sank and a wave of unease washed over.“Where can I find Anya? Which floor is she on?”“She is in the operating room of the third floor…”I was already sprinting towards the third floor, without waiting for to nurse to finish her sentence.I raced up to the third floor, gasping for breath.At the operating room entrance, Miranda anxiously scanned the area, her face was filled with fear.Upon seeing Miranda, my despair intensified.“Miranda, where is Anya?”She turned around and immediately burst into tears. “Mr. Carter, she is still in the operating room.”My eyes widened, and I felt a wave of dizziness.“Anya, you have to wake up. Please wake up.”The surgery stretched out for two hours.Finally, the operating room door swung open, and the doctor emerged.Miranda and I hurriedly approached. “Doctor, how is the patient?”The doctor’s expression turned solemn. “The patient suffered severe injuries from the explosion, particularly to the back. There is a possibility
Kester’s POV:“Boom!”My heart sank a wave of unease washing over me. My eyebrows twitched involuntarily. “What had happened Anya?”“Anya has been involved in the car accident, and she is currently undergoing a critical treatment of the hospital!” Miranda’s voice trembled with emotion.My mind went blank, a chilling emptiness settling with me. I felt as though I had been plunged into the icy abyss.“What’s going on? What happened to Anya?”Anya was getting ready to head to the airport this morning, but little did she know, there was a bomb planted in the car. Anya has been critically injured in the explosion and undergoing life-saving treatment…”“What?” I gasped, feeling a chill drown my spine. My mind was buzzing with disbelief.“How is Anya now? What is her condition?”“Mr. Helsen, Anya is currently in the hospital undergoing treatment. She just underwent surgery, but she has yet to regain consciousness!”“The doctor said, Ania is in critical condition and nearly closing monitor in
Evan’s POV:My face contorted with anger as I furrowed my brow.But for now, Anya was still in grave danger, and it wasn’t time to dwell on those matters.The most crucial thing was to save Anya’s life.“Anya, you have to wake up!”Through the transparent barrier of the intensive care unit, I gazed at Anya’s motionless form, connected to a myriad of tubes and monitors.It had been day and night, yet there was no sign of regaining consciousness.The following day, guided by a nurse, Kester hurriedly approached the hospital ward.At the ward’s entrance, Kester and I locked gazes, the air thick with intense hatred, as if bitter rivals meeting after a long absence.“Evan, did you do this to Anya? Tell me the truth, was it you?”“Are you insane? Do you think I would stoop so low as to harm Anya? You truly lost your mind!”“It has to be you. No one else could have done this.”I coldly avoided Kester, his gaze piercing through me. The weight of worry and concern for Anya had left no room for
Frank’s POV:Harry, on the other hand, was very overjoyed. “God is fair! That bitch deserves the punishment. God, please let her die as soon as possible! As long as she dies, the Walter Group’s shares will be returned to Walter family. We will take our things back! God, please take that damn bitch away right now.”I could not take it anymore. “No matter what, she is your sister.”Harry sneered, “She is not my sister. She is our enemy. Dad, didn’t you want her die in the past? Justice from God. She was injured in the explosion because God could not stand anymore and punished in this way.”I let out a long sigh.Looking at me, Harry was a little unhappy. “Dad, why are you sad for her? Think about how she treated us. If it weren’t for her, our family would not have been turned to out like this. It would be good things if she died.”A hint of gloat flashed across Harry’s eyes as he spoke, “Dad, according to the law, as her immediate family, you have the right to net her property after dea
Frank’s POV:After two o'clock in the afternoon, the maid wheeled me to X City Hospital.A while later, we arrived at the door of the intensive care unit.The lamps over our heads hurt glowed pale white, making everyone's face look gloomy.Evan was sitting in a chair on the left side of the corridor, while Kester was on the right side.Their bodyguards and assistants were standing on both sides of the corridors. Although there were many people, they stood in a line on the two sides, as serious soldiers on guard.Those who didn’t know would think that they were guarding some big shot.“Mr. Walter is here!” The nurse held me over.After a glance at me, Evan and Kester reacted with their gaze at the same time.I, who was sitting in the wheelchair felt a little uneasy. “I am here to take a look at Anya!”The corridor fell silent.No one seemed to want to talk to me, let alone tell me about Anya’s current situation.Author’s POV:Kester ignored Frank. He treated Anya so badly that he almos
Coral’s POV:After freezing for a while, I unwittingly looked back in the corridor.‘Why would Princess Martha call me?’Princess Martha said disappointedly. “ I called Evan, but he didn’t answer.”“Miss Martha, how did you get back phone number?”“I called the front desk of the company and got the number from the receptionist.”“Oh, I see! Whats the matter?”“Are you with Evan? What happened to him? Why has he never answered my calls?”“Well, wait a minute.”I covered the phone, hurried to Evan, and whispered, “Mr.Carter, Princess Martha. wants to talk to you.”Evan’s POV:I frowned.For the past three days, I had been so anxious that I didn’t have the mood to answer anyone’s call.“Hi, Martha!”Princess Martha’s aggrieved cries came from the other end of the line. “Evan, why didn’t you answer the call? Do you know how much I am worried about you? Why don’t you get in touch with me? Why?”“Martha, I am not able to come.”“Evan, you promised that you would come to Novlis to see my fat
Evan’s POV:Anya was still in a coma.She had a lot of wounds on her body, some of them so deep that I could see her bones.Fortunately, she didn’t lose any part of her body in the explosion.Seeing Anya like this, I felt a pinch in my head and tears welled up.“Anya, you must wake up!”“Our children are waiting for you at home. They can’t live without you. Do you hear me? You love them the most, right? As long as you wake up, I am willing to return them to you. Anya, come on, wake up.” I slowly grabbed Anya’s hand.I couldn’t hold back my tears anymore.Sometimes, death comes all of a sudden.In the face of it, people didn’t care about the things they used to care about very much. If I could turn back time, I would certainly cherish Anya’s love for me and would not allow our relationship to end up like this.“Anya do you know how much I love you? I admit that I am not a good man. I am a jerk. I have done a lot of things that hurt you. I know I deserve to die, and that many people wan
Anya’s POV:After Evan and the children left, I came down from the upstairs and prepared to go to the hospital.Coincidentally, Tina came over again.“Sister, I am going to work too.”“Yes. Are you used to working with the Garcia Group?” I asked with concern.“It’s quite good. Anya, I don’t worry.”“That’s good. If there is anything you don’t like, let me know.”“I got it.”After packing up, I also drove to the hospital to accompany my daughter.Tina’s POV:I had already been working for a week. I had not much done during this week.It was mainly to help Zachary make coffee and send documents.“Mr. Garcia, here is your coffee.” I had made a coffee as usual and bought it for Zachary.“Leave it.”I was about to place the cup on the table when Zachary raised his hand.Immediately, a cup of hot coffee was spilled, and the hot coffee was splashed on Zachary.I was terrified and quickly apologized, “Mr. Garcia, I am sorry.”He smiled ambiguously, “It’s okay, did you get scalded?”“Nope.”“L
Evan’s POV:After Jerry left, I could not help but smile.I could not help but tease. “Heh, women don’t mean what they say. She regrets being mean to me now.”I stirred the spaghetti. I Swift with my fork and smelled it. It was still a familiar smell.It had been a few days since I last ate spaghetti made by Anya. I missed it.Then, I couldn’t wait to take a big bite.As soon as I ate, I frowned slightly. I felt the taste was a little different from before. It was obvious that the sauce was thicker and there seemed to be too much salt.However, on second thought, it was normal.It was possible that Anya was still angry and deliberately added another spoonful of salt.“Hehe, woman!” I thought.I shook my head and smiled awkwardly. I guess that Anya could not wait to reconcile.“Hmph, since you have lowered your head, I have to put on air. I will let you know that I am not that easy man to coax. Let’s see if you still dare to mess with me in the future.”I thought it was Anya's cook. So
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.
