Evanโs 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 didnโt 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. โLetโs go.โI seized Anya up. โYou are going like this?โShe stunned and asked, โCanโt I?โโSure, why not?โ 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 didnโt care about the date with me at all now.In the car, I subconsciously asked, โ
Anyaโs 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 couldnโt possibly free myself with the company being so busy.Seeing me hesitating, Evan raised his eyebrows. โWhat? You donโt want to go. I thought you wanted to see the children.โMy eyes flickered as I replied with a heavy heart. โI want to, but I am afraid I wonโt have time to fly to Surbano to pick up the kids. Maybe itโs better for me to go to the airport after the kids return.โBefore I could finish speaking, Evan frowned, โAnya is work more important, or the children more important?โโBoth are important, of course.โEvan snorted coldly with a tinge of anger in his voice. โIf you are not going, I will go alone.โSeeing that Evan was angry, I quickly changed my statement. โUm, 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
Anyaโs POV:I slap for over an hour before abruptly jolting awake. I rubbed my eyes and looked around in a daze.โOh my, how did I fall asleep?โ I rubbed my eyes and looked at the time. It was already past 10:00 PM.When I looked over the driverโs seat, Evan was nowhere to be seen.I pushed open the car door and got outโฆThough 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.โEvanโฆโ I called out as I walked towards him.Without turning around, he asked calmly, โAre you awake?โI was a little embarrassed and replied, vaguely, โI was just too tired and accidentally fall sleep.โโWhat is this place?โโSilver Ocean Avenue,โ 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
Anyaโs 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.โYou are awake!โ 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 didnโt dare to answer Kesterโs 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 Kesterโs calling.Immediately, he frowned, โWho is calling?โI replied in frustration, โEvan sent me back quickly.โHis voice turned gloomy, saying, โI am asking you, who is calling you?โโIts none of your business.โโIs it Kester calling?โ His face dark
Anyaโs POV:In the office, I put my hand in my hair, feeling extremely heavy and dejected.I didnโt 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 didnโt love him?And I would not hug him tightly when I lost control and didnโt have such strong feelings for him.โBeep, beep, beep.โMy 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.โHello, Rose.โโRoseโs voice comes from the other end of the phone, โMiss Walter, the advancement competition is the day after tomorrow. If you are available, you should come.โI only come back to my senses after hearing that.Recently, I have been busy with X City and have forgotten about Green Town.โIs the advancement competition the day after tomorrow?โโYes, its already the fifth episode. The contestants will ent
Frankโs POV:I didnโt 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 sisterโs 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.โAnya, Daddyโฆ might not be make it. Tinaโฆโ I struggled to utter a few words, and my face turned purple.Anya seemed to understand that I was worried about Tina. She said, โDad, donโt worry. I will take care of Tina. I will not let her stay in the mental hospital for the rest of her life.โโOkayโฆโ 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.โDad rest well. I will visit you another rush.โI reached out trembling and wanting to hold onto Anyaโs hand. Unfortunately, after trying for a long time, I cou
Anyaโs POV:After watching this silently for a while, I couldnโt 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 werenโt 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.โMiss Walter, letโs go!โโHmmm!โ 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 wasnโt as deep anymore.If Tina was willing to repent sincerely and no longer wanted to harm others, I wouldnโt stand in her way. More than that, I wouldnโt lower myself to her level.โMiss Walter, where do
Evanโs POV:After I came to my senses, I ran after Anya.In the parking lot downstairs, I hurriedly chased after her.โAnyaโฆ AnyaโฆโAnya was already in the car. She stepped on the accelerator and drove away immediately.I stomped my foot in frustration as I watched Anyaโs car vanish into the distance.Whatever I set out to do, I always had confidence in my success.But when it came to Anya, I kept encountering defeat again and again.Anyaโs POV:In the car, a ringing tone could be heard.โBeep, beep, beep!โI was distraught as I called Kester.The call was answered quickly. โHello, Anya!โโKesterโฆโ I wanted to speak, but hesitated.He replied sleepily, โWhatโs wrong? Why are you calling me so late?โBecause of the time zone difference, it was late at night over there.I paused for a while, then said softly, โKester, I miss you so much.โโHehe! Silly girl, I miss you too!โโKesterโฆโ My eyes turned red-rimmed. I wanted to say something, but I found I couldnโt get any words out.I wanted
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
Anyaโs 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, โI am sorry. I couldnโt take care of you and the children back then.โโI will make sure to support you for this pregnancy!โWhen 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 wouldnโt 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.โMommy, is so great!โโThatโs right! You must be filial to your mother when you grow up. Donโt make her angry, understand?โโYes, we understand!โEvan immediat
Anyaโs POV:Although the City hospital was good, the Avery Womenโs 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.โOh, okay. I listen to you.โ 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.โWhy aren't you saying anything? Why are you acting strangely recently?โโNot at all!โEvanโs POV:I frowned. I still
Markโs POV:I bought a few security guards and went straight to Miss Linkenโs office.With a dark expression, I told Miss Linken about Evanโs decision.When Miss Linken heard this, she thought she had heard wrongly and was shocked. โWhat? Mr. Carter froze my shares and dividends? Whatโs going on?โI pulled a long face and said sternly, โMiss Linken, you violated the companyโs rules. The company is now conducting a full investigation.โWhen Miss Linken heard this, she was even more enraged. โAre you kidding me? I am a director of the company.โโYour shares had been acquired by the company. You are no longer a shareholder of the Carter Group.โMiss Linkenโs 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.โAre you kidding me? I have worked for the Carter Group for more than 30 years. I have been conscientious and willing to do anything.โโYou are wro
Evanโs POV:I had returned to the midst of Miss Linkenโs speech.I had left my proposal on the conference table.When he returned to retrieve it, I heard Miss Linkenโs sarcastic remarks.This time, I was completely furious.When Miss Linken saw me, she also looked embarrassed. โMr. Carter, why are you back again?โMy 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 Linkenโs POV:After Evan left, Mr. Smith was somber, โI told you not to say much, but you donโt listen. Now you are in trouble.โMy nostrils flared, and I adjusted my glasses. A trace of disdain appeared on my well-mannered face. โI am telling the truth. Anya might not be pregnant with Mr. Carterโs child. She is allowed
Jennyโs POV:Evan waved his hand to stop his bodyguard from approaching.โWhat do you want? I will give you five minutes. Tell me now.โMy eyes turned red as tears flowed uncontrollably, โEvan, I will ask even one last time. Are you not going to give me a chance?โEvan frowned, โJenny, 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!โโEvan, I donโt understand what is so good about Anya? A bitch like her has cheated on you so many times. Donโt you mind at all? Donโt feel disgusted. I look down upon you. I truly despise youโฆโBefore I could finish, Evanโs expression suddenly changed. He said coldly, โMiss Garcia, this is my last warning. You can scold me however you want, but if you dare to slander Anya again, I wonโt be courteous to you anymore.โI was so angry that my heart was about to explode. โEvan, did I say something wrong? You didnโt mind at all about Kester and her? You donโt 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
Anyaโs 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 didnโt pick any of the other dishes, Evan leaned over and peered at me few seconds. He asked suspiciously, โWhatโs wrong? Why do you look like this? Are you feeling unwell?โโI am fine. Itโs just that my calf hurts a little,โ I replied quietly.โI will call the doctors and tell them to prescribe you some painkillers.โโNo need. It's not good to take too many painkillers!โWhen Evan heard this, he held my hand again. โAnya, I am sorry. I wonโt force you anymore. If there is anything,
