Anya’s POV:After all, $300 million was a significant amount, and even if Kester was willing to help me, I didn’t want to burden him with that.“Take care. I will hung up now.”“Kester, I miss you.”“Silly, I miss you too.”Soon, I had a meeting with the CEO of Citibank.Since it was a mortgage loan, we had to follow the market rate, which was 40%.Therefore, if I needed to loan of $300 million, I would have to take 30% of the company’s share.After thinking for two days, I decided to go all out.I would mortgage my own share and use the funds to buy back the share of Mr. White. This was the only method to deal with the situation now.That would be ideal if our plan worked. However, if there was any issue and the loan and the funding chain were broken, things would become troublesome.“Uncle White, I am in the process of raising funds. The bank approval may take about two months. Please wait for another two months more.”Hearing this, Mr. White reluctantly agreed. “Alright then. Only
Evan’s POV:Twenty minutes later, Anya carried her bag and hurried downstairs.As usual, she wore a white professional suit, with black framed glasses and hair casually flowing over her shoulder. She didn’t put on any makeup, not even lipstick.On the other hand, I was dressed in a well-fitted suit, my hair was neatly styled. I looked formal as if attending an important event.Anya opened the door and car door and got in. “Let’s go.”I seized Anya up. “You are going like this?”She stunned and asked, “Can’t I?”“Sure, why not?” I smiled awkwardly. Then, I started the car and drove towards Blue Pavilion.Anya looked beautiful. Even without makeup, she still had the power to captivate others.However, the problem was that women usually were worried about their appearance and would want to present themselves well on a date.It showed that she cared about the person she was meeting.It was clear that Anya didn’t care about the date with me at all now.In the car, I subconsciously asked, “
Anya’s POV:I hesitated. I felt conflicted about the idea.I could certainly make time to pick up the kids at the airport. However, if it involved flying to Surbano, it would take at least two to three days.I couldn’t possibly free myself with the company being so busy.Seeing me hesitating, Evan raised his eyebrows. “What? You don’t want to go. I thought you wanted to see the children.”My eyes flickered as I replied with a heavy heart. “I want to, but I am afraid I won’t have time to fly to Surbano to pick up the kids. Maybe it’s better for me to go to the airport after the kids return.”Before I could finish speaking, Evan frowned, “Anya is work more important, or the children more important?”“Both are important, of course.”Evan snorted coldly with a tinge of anger in his voice. “If you are not going, I will go alone.”Seeing that Evan was angry, I quickly changed my statement. “Um, I need to arrange my work and see if I can make time. If I can go, I will go with you. But if you
Anya’s POV:I slap for over an hour before abruptly jolting awake. I rubbed my eyes and looked around in a daze.“Oh my, how did I fall asleep?” I rubbed my eyes and looked at the time. It was already past 10:00 PM.When I looked over the driver’s seat, Evan was nowhere to be seen.I pushed open the car door and got out…Though it was nighttime, there were streetlights on both sides of the road.I scanned my surroundings.I saw Evan standing on a reef by the sea. He was looking at the nights in the distance and smoking silently.His tall figures stood against the wind appearing lost in thought.“Evan…” I called out as I walked towards him.Without turning around, he asked calmly, “Are you awake?”I was a little embarrassed and replied, vaguely, “I was just too tired and accidentally fall sleep.”“What is this place?”“Silver Ocean Avenue,” he replied calmly.I joined him in on the reef, looking at the surroundings. It was a peculiar location.It was situated between the seaside and a
Anya’s POV:My entire neck was covered in bruises, and there were hickeys everywhere.I knew it. I know that meeting Evan alone was very dangerous.Regardless of whether I was willing or not, he had a way to force me to be willing!Moreover, he was really difficult to deal with. After being pestered by him, I could not escape at all.“You are awake!” He smiled, lovingly and contentedly, reaching out to hug me.I heaved a sigh of relief and helplessly combed by messy hair from my forehead.At this moment, I didn’t dare to answer Kester’s call.Especially since that bastard Evan was still by my side. Once the call was picked up, he would say nonsense to Kester.Looking at my nervous expression, he seemed also to realize that it might be Kester’s calling.Immediately, he frowned, “Who is calling?”I replied in frustration, “Evan sent me back quickly.”His voice turned gloomy, saying, “I am asking you, who is calling you?”“Its none of your business.”“Is it Kester calling?” His face dark
Anya’s POV:In the office, I put my hand in my hair, feeling extremely heavy and dejected.I didn’t dare to recall the scene last night!Although I refused to admit that I still loved Evan, my instinctive reaction had sold me out. How would I have fallen for him unknowingly, last night if I didn’t love him?And I would not hug him tightly when I lost control and didn’t have such strong feelings for him.“Beep, beep, beep.”My phone vibrated again.I shuddered and hurriedly looked at the phone. Ihave been really busy these past few days. Countess calls come in every day.“Hello, Rose.”“Rose’s voice comes from the other end of the phone, “Miss Walter, the advancement competition is the day after tomorrow. If you are available, you should come.”I only come back to my senses after hearing that.Recently, I have been busy with X City and have forgotten about Green Town.“Is the advancement competition the day after tomorrow?”“Yes, its already the fifth episode. The contestants will ent
Frank’s POV:I didn’t expect that obedient boy I had always been proud to be so bold as to hurt someone with a gun and install a bomb in his sister’s car.Now that he had become a wanted criminal. I hope that he will escape overseas and never return. Otherwise, he would probably be imprisoned for life once he was caught.“Anya, Daddy… might not be make it. Tina…” I struggled to utter a few words, and my face turned purple.Anya seemed to understand that I was worried about Tina. She said, “Dad, don’t worry. I will take care of Tina. I will not let her stay in the mental hospital for the rest of her life.”“Okay…” When I heard this, my body relaxed. I was finally relieved!I know very well that Harry was a wastrel and would not care about Tina. Although Anya was not on good terms with Tina, she was still much better than Harry.“Dad rest well. I will visit you another rush.”I reached out trembling and wanting to hold onto Anya’s hand. Unfortunately, after trying for a long time, I cou
Anya’s POV:After watching this silently for a while, I couldn’t help inhaling deeply, and a chill ran down my spine.People who were admitted to mental hospitals would still be treated as mental health patients, even if they weren’t actually mentally ill.Back then, in order to get Tina off the hook, Dad had deliberately claimed she had a mental health issue and sent her to a mental hospital.From the looks of it, Tina did seem to have some mental disorder.My skin felt numb as I walked out of the mental hospital, somewhat in a daze.“Miss Walter, let’s go!”“Hmmm!” I replied in a leaden voice.Thereafter, I quietly got into the car. Along the way, my mood was extremely downcast and depressed.Tina had been in the mental hospital for almost a year.To be honest, my hatred for Tina wasn’t as deep anymore.If Tina was willing to repent sincerely and no longer wanted to harm others, I wouldn’t stand in her way. More than that, I wouldn’t lower myself to her level.“Miss Walter, where do
Anya’s POV:My face darkened. I subconsciously held my belly. A hint of hatred appeared in my eyes.“You should say that he is the lucky one!”“Yes, that’s right. You and Mr. Carter are the luckiest people on this earth!”I pursed my lips. I was not interested in feigning civility with these people.Without waiting for the birthday party to end, I said to Evan, “I am tired. I am going back to my room to rest!”“Alright, I will send you back to your room!”“There is no need. You can stay and entertain the guests. I will get servants to send me back to my room!”“That works too!”Then the servant pushed me away.I could only say that I was extremely disappointed in Evan. At the same time, I hated him for being violent and selfish.In the face of absolute power, I could not take revenge on him. But now I suddenly thought of a w
Anya’s POV:Because I had triplets, it was an especially difficult pregnancy for me. I almost lost my life twice.When I was seven months into the pregnancy, some complications happened and I had no choice but to undergo or C-section.When Evan heard this, a hint of heartache appeared on his face. He said gently, “I am sorry. I couldn’t take care of you and the children back then.”“I will make sure to support you for this pregnancy!”When I heard this, my pupils contracted, and I looked elsewhere.At that time, I felt too lonely, so I decided to give birth.Now I already have three children. I wouldn’t give him another child.If I were able to leave successfully, I would go to the hospital to get an abortion.Since Evan wanted this child so much, I would not let him have his way. I also wanted him to have a taste of heartache.“Mommy, is so great!”“That’s right! You must be filial to your mother when you grow up. Don’t make her angry, understand?”“Yes, we understand!”Evan immediat
Anya’s POV:Although the City hospital was good, the Avery Women’s Hospital is a high-end maternity and children's Care Hospital. It specializes in taking care of pregnant women and infants.All the rich wives and celebrities in X city like to give birth there.“Oh, okay. I listen to you.” I said perfunctorily.I would go along with whatever Evan said now. Evan could do whatever he wanted.I had already made up my mind that I would not give birth to this child.And I most certainly would not get together with Evan.I had already secretly called Michael in the meantime, and asked him to deal with the factory in M city.At the same time, I called Brother Trumpet and said that I wanted to quit the media group.Now, I would take advantage of the time to raise as much cash as I could. The more the better.When my calf was healed, I would find a suitable time to leave Evan.“Why aren't you saying anything? Why are you acting strangely recently?”“Not at all!”Evan’s POV:I frowned. I still
Mark’s POV:I bought a few security guards and went straight to Miss Linken’s office.With a dark expression, I told Miss Linken about Evan’s decision.When Miss Linken heard this, she thought she had heard wrongly and was shocked. “What? Mr. Carter froze my shares and dividends? What’s going on?”I pulled a long face and said sternly, “Miss Linken, you violated the company’s rules. The company is now conducting a full investigation.”When Miss Linken heard this, she was even more enraged. “Are you kidding me? I am a director of the company.”“Your shares had been acquired by the company. You are no longer a shareholder of the Carter Group.”Miss Linken’s POV:I was completely dumbfounded when I heard this.I felt like a lightning bolt out of the blue. I was thunderstruck. It took a long time before I returned to my senses for a long time.“Are you kidding me? I have worked for the Carter Group for more than 30 years. I have been conscientious and willing to do anything.”“You are wro
Evan’s POV:I had returned to the midst of Miss Linken’s speech.I had left my proposal on the conference table.When he returned to retrieve it, I heard Miss Linken’s sarcastic remarks.This time, I was completely furious.When Miss Linken saw me, she also looked embarrassed. “Mr. Carter, why are you back again?”My eyes darkened. I ignored Miss Linken and took out a proposal lying on the conference table, leaving.In the past, I had always been polite to her because she was the older and senior member of the company. However, some people took advantage of their seniority and gossiped about me behind my back.More importantly, Miss Linken dared to criticize Anya.Miss Linken’s POV:After Evan left, Mr. Smith was somber, “I told you not to say much, but you don’t listen. Now you are in trouble.”My nostrils flared, and I adjusted my glasses. A trace of disdain appeared on my well-mannered face. “I am telling the truth. Anya might not be pregnant with Mr. Carter’s child. She is allowed
Jenny’s POV:Evan waved his hand to stop his bodyguard from approaching.“What do you want? I will give you five minutes. Tell me now.”My eyes turned red as tears flowed uncontrollably, “Evan, I will ask even one last time. Are you not going to give me a chance?”Evan frowned, “Jenny, I have told you many times that we are not compatible. Even if you ask me a hundred times, I will give the same answer!”“Evan, I don’t understand what is so good about Anya? A bitch like her has cheated on you so many times. Don’t you mind at all? Don’t feel disgusted. I look down upon you. I truly despise you…”Before I could finish, Evan’s expression suddenly changed. He said coldly, “Miss Garcia, this is my last warning. You can scold me however you want, but if you dare to slander Anya again, I won’t be courteous to you anymore.”I was so angry that my heart was about to explode. “Evan, did I say something wrong? You didn’t mind at all about Kester and her? You don’t mind that she is fooling around
Jenny’s POV:Ten minutes later, Jimmy entered the office with Marlowe.Marlowe walked in and looked at the mess on the ground. He teased, “What, who provoked Miss Gracia?”I rolled my eyes coldly and growled, “What brings the prestigious President Yanice here today?”A sly look appeared in Marlowe’s eyes as he said in a glib tone. “Miss Garcia, long time no see. I miss you.”I snorted, “If you have something to say, just say it.” I rolled my eyes arrogantly and impatiently.Marlowe might be one of the wealthy second generation, but he was not popular in the elite circle of the rich second generation.After all, Marlowe had been imprisoned for nine years. Moreover, his reputation was not good. The elite circle of affluent second generation was not very willing to associate with him.“Look at what you are saying, Miss Garcia. You are so distant…”
Anya’s POV:I frowned. “Evan, are you serious?”He looked solemn, “Of course. There is a piece of land in the back of the house that was bought a few years ago. It had just been used. It come handy now. We will build children’s playground for our children to play.”I frowned and looked at Evan, transfixed.“Also, I have thought about it. My next step is to invest in a school.”As he spoke, Evan touched his chin and said regretfully, “Tsk. Why didn’t I think of investing in this sector in the past? If we had invested earlier, it would be more convenient for the children. However, it's not too late. When they go to middle school and university, it will come in handy. I have already thought about it. When they were in middle school, I would send them overseas for education. During vacation, they can come back to X city for private classes.”I was completely speechless after heari
Anya’s POV:I was thinking silently on the hospital bed, not reacting to him. After receiving utensils from him, I ate mechanically.If I left him, I needed money.I plan to sell the properties in M city and Green town. At the same time, I would also sell the properties overseas.Evan had once given me black card. I had used part of it, but there was still over $20 million on it.I could use this time to cash out all these things and then choose the right time to leave him.Seeing that I only ate rice and didn’t pick any of the other dishes, Evan leaned over and peered at me few seconds. He asked suspiciously, “What’s wrong? Why do you look like this? Are you feeling unwell?”“I am fine. It’s just that my calf hurts a little,” I replied quietly.“I will call the doctors and tell them to prescribe you some painkillers.”“No need. It's not good to take too many painkillers!”When Evan heard this, he held my hand again. “Anya, I am sorry. I won’t force you anymore. If there is anything,
