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
Anya’s POV:Emily opened the door, and Kester walked in, carrying several packages in his hands.“Anya, I have brought you some breakfast and some daily necessities…”Before he could finish his sentence, his eyes fell on Evan, and he paused.“What is he doing here?”“Kester don’t get me wrong! I don’t know what was wrong with him last night. He came all the way here.”Hearing that, Evan tightened his grip on my hand and looked at Kester tauntingly.“Anya and I are married. We don’t need someone else to tell us what to do.” he said.I struggled a little. “Evan, we are divorced already!”“We can still marry, can’t we?”“You are nuts. Let go of me!”Kester asked, frowning, “Anya, what is he doing here?”From the looks of his face, I knew he had figured out that Evan had spent the night here.Evan sneered, “Why can’t I be here?”“Kester, I will explain it to you later! Evan, you have to go! If you don’t, I will call the police!”Evan gulped and looked grimly at me. “Anya, I am going to as
Coral POV:When Old Mrs. Cater arrived at the hospital in the morning and found that Mr. Cater was missing, anxiousness pulsed through her veins, causing her to almost lose consciousness.“Where is Evan? Haven’t you found him yet?”“Last night, Mr. Carter insisted on driving out here. He wouldn’t allow anyone to follow him!”“You bunch of losers. If something happened to Evan, I will bury all you with him.”Old Mrs. Cater had a fit.Being in my 70s, she had a weak heart.Once she got mad, her heart would ache and her brain would be deprived of oxygen.Seeing this, her assistant swiftly whipped out an oxygen tank and put the mask on my face.After inhaling a few mouthfuls of oxygen she calmed down a little.“Hurry up and find him. We have to find him.”I quickly assured her, “Yes, yes. We are already looking. Kenny headed out with some people to look for Mr. Carter last night. I will call him now to ask him if he has found Mr. Carter.”Just then, Tina also hurried to the hospital. “Whe
Evan’s POV:Instinctively, Tina took two steps backward. Then, she stepped forward again and gripped my arm.“Evan, even… Even if Anya was the one who saved you ten years ago, are you going to throw away the relationship we have had for years?”I looked at her sternly and replied dryly, “Our relationship has been mistake since the beginning.”“No, it’s not! You can’t say goodbye to me for such a trivial thing! I won’t accept this. I won’t.”She got worked up as she swung my arm desperately.“You do love me, Evan! We are so in love. How can we break up so easily? I waited for you for six years, and now, you want to part with me?”Treas streamed down her face and her slim body was quivering nonstop.I felt a little bad as I knew I hurt her badly.“I will make it a for you with monetary compensation. Give me an amount.”I will agree to it as long as it is not too outrageous.Although we had dated for six years, I never once touched her.At least I didn’t harm her to take advantage of her
Mia’s POV:Seeing his tacit agreement, my heart jolted.When Tina came home last night, she had asked what she should do as it seemed like Evan was going to break with her.At that time I thought she was joking.But, now it seemed that Evan really did ask to break up.“What the hell is going on? Did you break up with Tina?”Evan let out a sigh of relief and made no reply.In an instant, I knew I had guessed correctly. Then, I immediately start creating a scene, crying out, “How can you do such a horrible thing to Tina? If anything happens to her, I’m going to hang myself at the doorsteps of Carter Corporation. You are so heartless. You have dated Tina for six years and wasted six years of her youth. And now you are leaving her like this. You are so merciless. I’m not going to live anymore!”Hearing that, Frank sighed deeply. With a sad face, he tried to pursue me, saying, “We’re at the hospital. Don’t make a scene. Let’s wait till Tina’s operation is over first.”“I don’t care! If any
Anya’s POV:I could overlook it when others did not believe me or reprimanded me.However, seeing that my father didn’t believe me, still made my heart ache.Since young, I always worked hard and tried my best to excel in everything, so that I could get my father's approval.However, no matter how hard I tried, my father had always been cold and indifferent to me. He never praised me, nor did he even give me fatherly love.Now, I had finally accepted the fact.I no longer wanted to please him any more expect anyone to nourish me with love.“Dad, I’m not hooking up with Evan Carter. I had no idea they had split up.”I was pissed off.Evan had made my life difficult for the past two days.I also broke my arm because of him.However, instead of criticizing him, everyone was blaming me.Mia scoffed and lashed out. “Humph! You didn’t know. Why would you be here if you don’t know? If you don’t seduce Mr. Carter, why would he go to see you in the middle of the night? If it were not for you,
Evan’s POV:“Tina! You must wake up! What I’m supposed to do if you don’t wake up.” Mia said, crying out loudly.Frank raised his eyebrows and patted me on the shoulder. “Evan, you have been with Tina for six years now. You have a complicated relationship with both of my daughters. So, you should think about how to resolve it. You have hurt Tina before, and she can’t take being hurt again.”I frowned.Mia whimpered. “Evan, you must be responsible for Tina. She is a nice and innocent girl. She is different from other women. She already has a relationship with you. You can’t hurt like that.”Hearing that I draw in a breath. I wanted to say that I didn’t do it with Tina, but I swallowed it back.It was pointless to talk about it anymore.After all, we had been dating for six years. Nobody else would believe me if I said I hadn’t had sexual intercourse with her.But the truth is, I had never touched her.When I was in need, I spent money on other women.When we were done, I paid them and
Jenny’s POV:The family began to take turns calling Zachary.Unfortunately, we still couldn’t get through to him.At this point, four to five hours had passed since the first call.Mom's eyebrows kept twitching and she had a bad feeling, “Will something happen to Zachary?”Dad frowned and said angrily, “What could happen to him? Who knows where he went to play again? This rascal is becoming more and more useless.”“Forget about him. Let’s eat first!”“Impossible. No matter how ridiculous Zachary is, today is a special day. He couldn’t possibly be not coming back today!”“We have been unable to get through him. Something must have happened! Let’s quickly send someone to look for him!”When Dad heard this, his frown deepened.Zachary liked to spend time drinking and merry-making and preferred to come and go alone. Therefore, he did not like to bring bodyguards.I also started to get anxious, “Something might have happened to Zachary. Just now he said that he would be home in half an hou
Zachary’s POV:I quickly walked to the car and hurriedly opened the door.It was not until I got into the car that my pounding heart felt a little better.“Hurry up and go home…”Buzz!After I started the car, I got out of the parking lot as if I was fleeing.This hotel was about 25 miles away from the Garcia residence.Without traffic, I could reach home in less than an hour.The Garcia family was also wealthy. Wealthy families paid more attention to privacy and safety. Their residences were usually very remote. Many of them were mansions halfway up the mountain, far away from the city.I was driving home.It was halfway through the journey. After a few more turns of tree-paved roads, I was able to see the top of the mountain where the Garcia residence was located.“Beep! Beep! Beep!”When I made a turn, my phone suddenly rang.“How annoying…” I thought that my sister was urging me to go home again, so I picked up the phone and answered it.“I already said I will be home soon. Stop c
Jenny’s POV:Today was Christmas Eve.Almost everyone returns home to spend the New Year with their families.The Garcia family was naturally no exception.As soon as I walked into the house, Mom stood up with the blame on her face. “Jenny, you are finally back. I called you so many times, but you didn’t answer. What are you busy with?”“I am back now. Merry Christmas Daddy and Mommy!” I hugged my mom happily.Dad stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. He pushed up his round-frame glasses and said unhappily, “What time is it? Why isn’t your brother home yet?”“That’s right! What’s going on with Zachary recently? He doesn’t come back more and more.”“He is also listless and distracted every time he comes back. This brat is getting more and more outrageous.”When I heard this, I secretly curled my lips in disdain.I know that my brother and Tina were dating.Now that his little girlfriend was gone, he must be sad.“Hurry up and call your brother. Tell him to come back quickly.”
Anya’s POV:“You are the one who came to me, not the other way around. If you don’t believe me, you might as well return.”“Miss Garcia, I am asking you for your help sincerely. If you continue with this attitude, we really can’t continue this conversation.” I stood up and pretended to leave.Seeing this, Jenny panicked and suddenly stood up, “Anya, what do you want?”I shrugged slightly, “I said that as long as you can get Evan out, I will certainly leave X city. I will keep my word. I can write you a guarantee.”“Hah, what’s the use of that?”I sneered, “Of course. It had a legal effect. As long as I leave X city, with your outstanding looks and family background, Evan will certainly fall in love with you over time.”Jenny’s POV:When I heard this, my eyes darkened. I also agreed with Anya’s words.As long as Anya left X city forever, then my chances with Evan were considerable.“Alright, I will believe you this once. Then write to me a guarantee. If you go back on your word at that
Jenny’s POV:I was stunned.I had looked for Anya and Evan before, but they all rejected me.Now that Anya had taken the initiative to look for me again, I was surprised.“Why? Have you thought it through? Are you willing to sacrifice yourself for him?”Anya took a deep breath. “Yes, if you have a way to get Evan out, I am willing to accept your suggestion to leave X city and never come back.”I rolled my eyes when I heard that.“Are you serious? You are not going to tease me again, are you?”“Why would I? I am very sincere!”“Alright then come to City Cafe!”“Will do.”Then I hung up the phone.Anya’s POV:After hanging up, I said, “Sam Drive to the City cafe!”“Alright!”City Cafe is X city’s most upscale coffee shop.At the same time, Jenny owned the place. It should be very safe to meet here.Thirty minutes later, Sam drove the car and arrived at City Coffee.“Where are you? I am already at the door.”“Then come in.”“Sam take the kids home first, then pick me up.”“Okay.”I got o
Anya’s POV:When I heard this, I felt a punch in my heart again.“Daddy will be out soon. Be good when Daddy isn’t around. Don’t be naughty, and don’t make Mommy angry.”“Yes, we will.”“Give the phone to Mommy. Let Daddy and Mommy a few words.”Anya took the phone. Her eyes were still a little red. “Don’t worry. The children have been good!”At this moment, I want to smash the glass window and hug the four of them.“Anya, I am worried about your safety. If anything happens to you, I can’t accept.”Anya pondered for a few seconds, “After the New Year. I will send the children overseas.”“What about you?”“Of course, I had to stay here!”When I heard this, my eyes turned even redder.I suddenly regretted it.I felt that I should never have given Anya the position o
Evan’s POV:(There was a shooting on Eastern Avenue, seriously injuring three people.)(The target of the gunshot is suspected to be the Carter Group’s new president.)I was special. Therefore, I lived in a separate cell that was even occupied with that television.After watching the news early in the morning, I was so shocked that my scalp went numb. I felt as if the blood in my body flowed backward.Bang! Bang! Bang!I patted the prison door.A guard walked over, “What’s the matter, Mr. Carter?”“I need to make a phone call.”“No, you are still in custody…”My eyes widened and I shouted, “I have to make a phone call now. Or you have to bear the consequences.”Seeing that I was agitated, the guard didn’t dare to act on his own. He quickly went to ask his superior.My request was approved by the higher-ups.I finall
Anya’s POV:My eyes were filled with vigilance. I completely ignored Liam’s expression.I would not react so dramatically if Liam just come to visit on any other day. But today, I had just been shot by the criminals, and Liam had come to the door.It was not hard to connect the two things.In particular, if something happened to me and my child, Liam would undoubtedly be the biggest beneficiary.“Mr. Miller, it’s getting late. I think it’s time for you to leave. I won’t keep you for dinner.” My heart was in turmoil as I directly ordered Liam to leave.When Liam heard this, he was even angrier.“Hmph!” He snorted and walked away.After he left the house, Jason and Jerry looked at me in confusion. “Mommy, why are you so angry towards Grand Uncle?”Usually, I was very gentle, and exceedingly polite when I faced the elders.But today, I am almost like a bulldog. I was not gentle at all.“Jason, Jerry, in the future when Mommy is not by your side, you can’t accept anything from anyone.” As
Tatiana’s POV:Although I had not been shot, I had been stabbed in the abdomen during the fight with the criminal.I was now in the ambulance, rushing to the hospital for treatment.“What about Coral and Kody? How are they doing?”I took a deep breath. “The police have arrived. The criminals have already escaped. Kody and Coral have been sent to the hospital.”Anya’s voice paused, “What about you? How are you?”“I am in an ambulance heading to the hospital!”When she heard this, she became even more worried, “I understand. I will rush to the hospital now!”I took another deep breath. “Miss Walter, don’t show your face for the time being. I am afraid the criminals will make a comeback. Gael has already rushed to the hospital with his men. If you want to stay safe, don’t show yourself so easily.”“Alright! I understand!” She had on the phone.Anya’s POV:I was still uneasy and wanted to go to the hospital to check on the three of them immediately.Who was the vicious person who wanted m
