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
Evan’s POV:After I came to my senses, I ran after Anya.In the parking lot downstairs, I hurriedly chased after her.“Anya… Anya…”Anya was already in the car. She stepped on the accelerator and drove away immediately.I stomped my foot in frustration as I watched Anya’s 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.Anya’s POV:In the car, a ringing tone could be heard.“Beep, beep, beep!”I was distraught as I called Kester.The call was answered quickly. “Hello, Anya!”“Kester…” I wanted to speak, but hesitated.He replied sleepily, “What’s wrong? Why are you calling me so late?”Because of the time zone difference, it was late at night over there.I paused for a while, then said softly, “Kester, I miss you so much.”“Hehe! Silly girl, I miss you too!”“Kester…” My eyes turned red-rimmed. I wanted to say something, but I found I couldn’t get any words out.I wanted
Anya’s POV:As soon as I arrived at the M City factory, Michael and Nicholas began reporting the progress of the work to me.“Miss Walter, a few potential sites in Pearl City have already been earmarked for the future factory. The city is very close to V City, and the industrial sector is more developed. The rent is cheaper than in M City. This is basic information about the factory sites. However, I suggest that you take the time to visit them yourself,” Michael said, handing me a stack of documents.“Hmmm, I can go and check them out,” I replied.“Our business in the first half of the year has increased by 47% compared to last year. We can’t fulfill the orders, so the company is recruiting regular workers on a large scale.”When I heard this, I felt rather gratified. “I understand. It’s been hard on everyone.”“It’s not hard at all. It’s what we should do!” Michael responded enthusiastically.It was already past eight o’clock in the evening when I finished my work at the M City offi
Anya’s POV:In the recording studio, the contestants were actively preparing for battle. They were about to advance to the final 16, and everyone was motivated, aiming to bring out their best. Seeing how focused they were, I felt incredibly grateful. No matter what happened, this talent show had still been a success. More importantly, through this show, the fame of the JK Media Group had spread far and wide.At one o’clock in the afternoon, Brother Trumpet and I went to the live streaming studio.“Let’s welcome Anya Walter to our live streaming channel!”I sat somewhat bashfully in front of the camera. “Hello, everyone. I’m Anya Walter, and I hope everyone tunes in to the Ultimate Girl’s Competition.”The screen was flooded with emoticons.“Miss Walter is so beautiful! Miss Walter should form a girl group. I will definitely support Miss Walter entering the entertainment industry!”“I like you so much, Miss Walter!”The fans flooded the screen with all kinds of small virtual gifts.See
Evan’s POV:I cast an irritated look and rolled my eyes in response. Though I was tempted to unleash my anger, I managed to control it and then put out the cigarette.I thought, ‘This damn woman never knew when to stop!’She is fearless now. She even dared to order me to do things. It was all because she knew that I would be under her control because of love.She must have been spoiled. She would not dare to act like this before.After I obediently extinguished the cigarette, Anya paid no attention to me.She lowered her head and looked at Jason, feeling sorry for him as she uttered, “I am afraid you can’t ride a horse for a while. Do you hear me? It was dangerous.”Jason replied stubbornly, “I like riding horses.”“Look at your arm. It’s broken. How are you going to ride a horse again?”Jason didn’t answer. He looked up at me. “Daddy, have you ever fallen off the horse when you first learned to ride?”I straighten my back and sit disdainfully. “Will your father as be useless as you?”
Evan’s POV:I was in a meeting when my phone rang. When I saw that it was Anya, I quickly picked up. “Hello.”“Evan, come to the hospital quickly.”“What’s wrong?”“Jason accidentally fell from his horse and fractured his arm.”“What?”“Don’t ask so many questions. Come to the hospital quickly.”“Alright, I understand.”I didn’t care about the meeting. I gave my secretary an order and left the conference room.Twenty minutes later, I arrived at the hospital in a hurry.“Where is Jason?”“Jason’s hand is fractured. He is now in a ward.”My face darkened, “How does this happen?”Anya’s face was also pale. She said in a worried voice. “The horse suddenly lost control and ran around the field. Then Jason fell.”“These horses are professionally trained. How could they lose control for no reason? Who did they go to the race course with?”“Did Tina go as well?” My expression changed. I was the first to suspect Tina.“No, she would not do that.”“Hmph.”As I spoke, the doctor walked out of th
Anya’s POV:As the two of us spoke, we walked towards the dining room.“Let me do it.” Tina proposes to do the dishes.“It’s okay. Just leave it to the servants.”“But I have to do something. I will feel embarrassed if it’s just idle around.”I was taken aback. But I couldn’t find any suitable work for Tina. Our household was already well-staffed with all tasks efficiently managed. There simply wasn’t a role of Tina to fulfill.“How about arranging flowers? Don’t you know how to arrange flowers?”“Yeah, sure.”The garden was filled with all kinds of flowers.Other than that, there was also a greenhouse filled with all kinds of precious flowers.I cut some flowers with Tina and began to put them in a vase.Tina quickly inserted a bouquet. “Anya, how does it look?”“Nice.”“Then why don’t you place it in your room? I believe it will bring you joy.”“Yeah.”I had to admit that Tina’s floristry was outstanding.The vase was very beautiful, looking like a fine art.‘It’s fabulous.’ I could
Tina’s POV:“Miss Tina, this way, please!”Lillian brought me to the servant’s dormitory.The front pavilion of Sherane Bay Villa was the place where the servant lived. There were many servants in the Carter family, and most of them lived here.Lillian took out the key and opened one of the rooms. “This will be a room from now. Let me know if you need anything.”I walked in and looked around the room. It looked a bit crowded.Although it was also very clean, it was for servants after all. So it was small and simple. I grew up in a rich family. I had never stayed in such a small room.“Thank you.” I squeezed out a fake smile.“You are welcome.” Lilian smiled politely, and then left the room, leaving me alone.I sat on the bed with resentment in my heart. I was supposed to be the hostess of this family and enjoy everything here.But now I had to stay in the servant’s room. How could I be willing to reconcile?“Anya, Evan, just you wait. One day, I will take back everything that belongs
I felt stifled.If people were to discover that I had been involved with both Anya and Tina simultaneously, they would undoubtedly perceive my private life as chaotic and complicated.I had always only loved Anya. My past relationship with Tina was merely a result of a misunderstanding.I treated Tina as my savior.If I had known from the beginning that it was Anya who saved me, I wouldn’t have liked Tina.I suppressed the anger in my heart and held her arm, “Anya, what exactly do you want to do?”“I don’t want to do anything. Dad has passed away, and Tina is sick. As her sister, I should take care of her.”When I heard this, I was even more furious, “If you want to take care of her, we can give her money and hire someone else to take care of her. There is no need to let her into our house.”“There are already so many people in our lives, adding Tina into it would not harm. Besides, I don’t even mind. Why are you so angry?”“Anya I don’t agree. She can’t live with us.”Seeing that Any
Anya’s POV:Half an hour later, I returned to X city.“Anya, are you sure you want me to take home?”I looked at Tina sadly but replied firmly, “Yes.”Tina’s face turned pale. She said worriedly, “But I am afraid that Evan will be unhappy.”When I heard this, a strange smile appeared on my face as I replied, “Don’t worry. He won’t.”I was doing that precisely to make Evan unhappy.I was going to do everything he didn’t want me to do. Of course, I was not stupid enough to go against him openly. I was not planning to fight fire with fire, but instead, slice his heart slowly and gently.Since Tina was scheming to stick to me to ruin my relationship with Evan, I naturally had to go with the flow.Tina was still acting innocent as she put on an innocent expression and spoke, “I am still worried! Evan hates me so much so he will certainly be ma
Anya’s POV:Kester had indeed already woken up, and he was not in any more danger.He had almost recuperated fully and would be able to be discharged in another half a month.I walked in front of the bed. When I saw Kester’s slightly pale face, I couldn’t hold back my tears.I took a quick few steps and threw myself at the head of the bed. “Kester, I am sorry. I am sorry. Thank God you’re finally awake!”I cried as I spoke. I felt especially dejected and emotional. I had too many things to say, but at this point, I didn’t know what else to say.Kester’s eyes were a little empty and his voice was a little hoarse. He paused a little before questioning, “Who are you? Do we know each other?”Boom!I was still crying sadly, but when I heard Kester's question, it was as though a bomb had gone off my head. I looked at him in shock.“Kester, I am Anya Walter! Don&
Anya’s POV:The next day, I packed up and prepared to go to V city to visit Helsen.Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked out of the door of Sherane Bay Villa, I saw Tina standing right outside the door.“Stop the car!” I instructed before quickly getting out of the car.“Anya…”“Tina, what are you doing here?”“I have been waiting for you.”I frowned and asked, “Waiting for me.”“Evan, don’t allow me to see you, so I have no choice but to wait here.’“How long have you been waiting here?”“I have been waiting here every day. I have no other way of meeting you, except waiting outside.” She cried.“Tina…”“Anya, I don’t dare to be alone at home. I am really scared.”“I am in a hurry. I want to…”“Anya, are you still mad at me? You must be still angry with me. Otherwise, why are you not willing to talk to me?”“I am not mad at you…”“Didn’t you promise me that you would persuade Evan? Anya, are you lying to me? Or are you worried that I have bad intentions?”“No, I didn’t…”“Anya please for
Anya’s POV:I had just slept for little more than ten minutes when I was stuck in a nightmare. My entire body kept twitching, and I couldn’t wake up no matter what.Fortunately, Evan had been standing guard at my side and immediately woke me up. “Anya, wake up quickly.”“Ah!” I screamed and opened my eyes.“What’s wrong? Did you have another nightmare?”I was drenched in a cold sweat and threw myself into Evan’s arms in a panic and said in fear, “Evan, I want to leave the hospital.”“What’s wrong?”I felt chilled over and couldn’t help but tremble. I replied, “Nothing’s wrong. I just don’t want to stay in the hospital. I just dreamed of something especially terrifying again.”Thinking about the nightmare, it was too terrifying. The hospital's dark energy was too heavy compared to the other places. So the nightmares were much more intense.“Don’t be afraid. The nightmares are all not real.”“I want to be discharged. I don’t want to stay here anymore.”“Okay, Alright. I will get someone
