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
Evan’s POV:I came back exhausted at 6:00 PM. I had not been home for three days.If my daughter had not called me today, I would be waiting at the hospital at this point.In the living room, three kids were waiting for me, and the sofa bit side by side.“Dad, you are back.”“Yes!” I replied in a muffled voice. My gloomy face made me look sad and weary.The kids all looked at me solemnly. “Dad…”I took off my coat and handed it to the servant. When I saw the children’s strange expressions, I could not help but ask, “What’s wrong? Why did you look so upset?”Jason immediately said, “Dad, I heard that something happened to Mommy. Is that true?”My face darkened. “Who told you that?”After the accident, I reminded the butler not to tell the children about what happened to Anya.Therefore, no one dares to talk about
Evan's POV:Looking at the three crying children, I felt even worse.Anya was their mother. If she died, no one could replace her in their heart.“Okay, don’t cry. As long as you listen to me, I will take you to see Mom.”When the children hear this, they quickly stop crying. “We promise we will good. We are very worried about Mom, and want to go to the hospital to see her now.”“You have to listen to me when you go to the hospital. Do you hear me?”“Got it? Don’t worry, Dad. We will be good.”I took a deep breath and said solemnly, “Then go have dinner now. Go to bed early after you are done eating. It’s already too late. I will take you to the hospital at morning tomorrow morning.”“Alright!”The kids didn’t dare to cry anymore and went as they were told.Kester’s POV:After Evan left, I finally had the c
Jerry’s POV:I was on my father's side and overheard the conversation between them.“Jason, you know how to restore the surveillance data, right? Please do your best to restore it. We must find that bad guy.”When Jason heard this, he wiped his tears.“Jerry, don’t worry. I will certainly find that bad guy who tried to kill Mom!”“Alright, you’ve already seen Mom! Hurry up and go home.”“Lillian, take the kids home.”“We were not leaving. We want to stay with Mom.”Dad put on a serious look, saying, “No, you can’t stay here, because it will affect your mom’s recovery. Go home right now. I promise I will bring you to see Mom again when she walks up.”I tugged Jason's sleeve and whispered, “Jason, let’s go! We will go back and investigate the bad guy who hurt Mom.”Jason nodded hard when he heard t
Frank’s POV:My second son has been more outstanding than my eldest son. He was smart and good at studying.It seemed that the Walter family’s remaining assets were better left to my second son.“David, when will you come back?”He paused briefly, contemplating the question, “That’s hard to say. If it was a brief, it could be around four to five days. However, if it is a long lifetime frame, it might be extended for one month or two.”I sighed heavily. “Then let’s talk about when you come back.”He looked curious. “What do you want to tell me?”I could not help but scold Harry again. “Sigh, ask your brother. Look what he did.”“Harry?”“He sold the house in S town and the two shops. He squandered them all! When you return, I will divide the property between the two of you. From now on, you will each be responsible for safeguarding your assets. If we don’t do it now, your brother will spend our well sooner or later.”“Oh!” He replied indifferently.He didn’t express any dissatisfaction
Author’s POV:They all died.At this moment, the other four realized what was going on and were shocked.They were pleading with the leader. They didn’t force him to split the money.But he shot.It was the same person who shot Evan just now.“Sometime, this is what happens!” The man with the pig mask slammed the gun on the table.His fierce temperament frightened everyone.“Do you have killed them?”“I told you, we are going to use this money for something grand! As long as you are part of my team, this money will grow exponentially in the future! Cars, houses, and women mean nothing. Don’t fixate on temporary pleasure!” The masked robber’s agitation grew with each word, his tone becoming frightenedly ferocious.Upon hearing this, the four robbers fell silent, refraining from saying anything further.A tall and lean robber suggested, “Well then, let’s stash away all the money for now!”“Boss, do you think Evan will involve the police? Perhaps, we should lay low for a while,” one of 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
