Evan’s POV:Jenny was not my type at all, to begin with. In addition, I was feeling exasperated and didn’t want to say anything superfluous.When she saw my impatient look, she took a deep breath. “Evan, I know you are annoyed. But Miss Walter is already engaged. Why can't you let it go?”My eyes flickered. “Who said I can’t let it go?”“Evan, just let bygones be bygones! The weather is very good today. Why don’t we go out for a cruise in the sea?”“I am not in the mood!”“Evan…” Jennie tried to flirt coquettishly.Unfortunately, her actions made me even more disgusted. I have to work now. Please leave!”“Evan, I… I like you a lot. Can’t you just give me a chance?” She said.Jenny’s POV:I couldn’t care less about being reserved anymore and reached out to hug his arm.I had always been confident in my charm.However, I simply couldn’t conquer Evan.Nevertheless, I have always liked challenges with a high level of difficulty. The more unattainable a man was, the more I wanted him to kn
Anya’s POV:On Kester’s side, many guests were attending the wedding, and there was also a special emcee to be a host for the wedding.The next day, I woke up early in the morning.The makeup artist and stylist began to work on my makeover. Rose, Daisy, and others had also changed into bridesmaids' dresses.As there were no elders present, Miranda stood in the elders on the bride's side.At eight o’clock in the morning, more than ten bridal cars set off in a majestic convey from the hotel.There was a joyous commotion outside the hotel. Kester bought more than ten groomsmen, and they headed for the hotel room together.“We are here for the bride.”“Mr. Helsen, we have to break the door down!” The groomsmen were causing a ruckus.The emcee directed the groomsmen as they livened up the atmosphere.There were not many bride-maids on my side. So, the bridegroom was not given a hard time. The room door was opened quickly.“Anya I love you.” Kester handed a bouquet to me.I smiled and took
Anya’s POV:I was also shocked, I was flabbergasted as I looked at Ellen.For the past few days, Kester had appeared uneasy and troubled. I had already guessed that something thorny must have happened.I had assumed that it was related to Evan all this while. I didn’t expect it to be connected to Ellen.Ellen walked up to me, “Miss Walter, I am now pregnant with Kester’s child. I don’t object to your marriage, but Mr. Helsen must give me and the child an answer.”I was dumbstruck. I couldn’t recover from my shock for a long time.“Anya, let me explain.” Kester instantly tried to explain.How was the truth right in front of my eyes? Any explanation would appear weak.“Oh, my goodness! Isn’t this the superstar Ellen?”“That’s right! I heard that Kester Helsen single-handedly groomed her until she became famous. So, she was also his secret lover.”“Gosh! There is going to be a good show to watch. Now, this is even more exciting than filming a movie.”“Tsk! Tsk! I didn’t come to today's w
Anya’s POV:“Kester! Kester!” My eyes instantly widened as I threw myself into his arms and shook his body.“Kester, wake up! You must pull through!”The ambulance whizzed through the traffic without stopping for a moment.Less than ten minutes later, the ambulance arrived at the hospital.“Someone has been shot! Doctors, save him quickly!”The bodyguard carried Kester who was covered in blood and rushed into the hospital.When the doctor and nurses saw this, they were also badly shaken! After all in society, it was rare for people to be shot by a gun.Soon, Kester was sent to the emergency room.I followed him all the way. The white gown I wore was already covered in blood. I sank on the bench outside the emergency room, as if all my muscles and bones had been extracted.I was about to have a relapse. The depression that had troubled me for many years made me extremely di
Evan’s POV:I also heard the news as well.When I heard that someone had fired a shot at the wedding, I was also terribly shocked.“Someone fired a shot at a wedding. Is Anya okay?”Coral reported, “I heard that Kester Helsen took a bullet for Miss Walter. Miss Walter is fine now. Kester Helsen is seriously injured and still in the hospital undergoing treatment. It was said that the bullet was 2 millimeters away from piercing his heart. He is not out of danger yet. Even if he wakes up, he will probably remain in a vegetative state in the future.”Hearing that I couldn’t help her gasped.Initially, I thought that no one could love Anya more than me. Now it seems that Kester loves Anya more than me.If I were in Kester’s shoes, I probably wouldn’t have instinctively taken a bullet for Anya in such an urgent situation.“Then, how is Anya now? Is she very sad?”&ldq
Anya’s POV:In the blink of an eye, Kester had stayed in the intensive care unit for two days.I also have been keeping watch outside the door for two days. Other than Miranda staying back to company me, everyone else had gone back.Tim was also advanced in years and didn’t continue to keep watch over Kester eventually. However, he comes to the hospital visit every day.“Doctor, how is Kester? Has he regained consciousness?”“Not yet.”“Can I go in and see him?”“Not yet, for now!”When I heard this, I stumbled and almost lost my balance.Miranda hurriedly supported me, “Anya, how are you?”“I am fine. I am just a little dizzy!”“Look at you. How can you take it if you carry on like this? Before Mr. Kester wakes up, you wouldn’t be able to take it anymore.”I tried my best to support my body and said
Anya’s POV:I don’t know how long I have been unconscious.I suddenly woke up from my dream, “Kester… Kester…”“Anya, you are awake?”“Mommy, you are finally awake!”I opened my eyes groggily. What greeted my eyes was Miranda’s anxious expression, as well as Jason and Jerry’s adorable faces.“Jason! Jerry! Why are you here?”“Mommy, you are finally awake. Daddy send us here.”Upon hearing this, I struggled to sit up.“Anya, you are weak now. You must not get up.”Jason said with his tears, “Mommy, what’s wrong?”“Don’t be afraid. Mommy is fine. Where is Flora?”“Flora is sick. Daddy was afraid that there would be germs in the hospital. So, he didn’t let Flora come here.”“Where is Daddy?”“Daddy is waiting d
Evan’s POV:In the parking lot, I sat inside the car and smoked one cigarette after another.At this moment, I wanted to go up and see Anya. However, I was afraid of bumping into the Helsen family members.“Daddy, we are back!”“Mm-hmm, Let’s go!”The two little fellows got into the car, and the driver started the car and drove out of the parking lot.“How is Mommy now?”“Daddy, Mommy’s very sad!”When I heard this, a hint of disappointment appeared on my face. There was an indescribable feeling in my heart.Anya’s POV:After I recovered some of my strength, I immediately got off the bed.I intend to go to see Kester.When Miranda saw this, she hurriedly went forward to dissuade me. “Anya, your body is still so weak. Rest more. You have not slept for two or three days. If this continues, you won’t be able to take it.&
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,
Anya’s POV:I didn’t reply. Due to the anesthetic, I was in a daze. I turned over slightly and continued sleeping.At 6:00 PM, Miranda came to deliver dinner with one servant.Jason, Jerry, and Flora all followed.As soon as the three children entered the ward, they couldn’t help but ask, “Mommy, do you have a baby?”I looked at my children and hesitated.The three little fellows didn’t know that I had experienced the moment of life and death when I jumped off the house today. They thought that it was only because I was pregnant that I was hospitalized.Of course, it was also because Evan ordered not to let anyone tell the children that I had jumped today.“Mommy, can I look at your belly?”“Is Mommy going to give birth to a little sister or brother again?”Evan replied on my behalf. “That’s right! Are you happy?”“Yes, if Mommy gives birth to a baby, will she still love us?”“Silly, of course!”Jason grinned, “I want a little sister.”Jerry chimed in, “I want a sister, too!”“Mommy,
Evan’s POV:What a surprise.I had wanted to have another child, but Anya refused. The last time Anya accidentally miscarried made me feel heartbroken.It was great that she is finally pregnant again.In the ward, I could not contain my joy. “Anya, are you awake?”Anya was lying on the hospital bed. Her calf was already injured, and she was a little out of her wits.I have forgotten about the conflict and argument just now. I excitedly shook Anya’s arm, “Anya, I have some good news for you.”Anya’s face was numb.I continued, “The doctor said that you are pregnant? We are having another baby.”Anya’s POV:When I heard this, my eyelids dropped slightly, but I still didn’t reply.The child came at the wrong time. I didn’t want to give birth to his child again.Evan buried his head in my belly, sticking close to this unborn child. “Anya, are you happy?”“I hope this child is a girl so Flora can have company. However, it doesn’t matter if we have a boy. Anywhere, the more, the better. Aft
Anya’s POV:I was still in a mental breakdown. What Evan said was completely unbelievable.After a few seconds, the blackout in her head dissipated. “Evan, don’t force me. I want to leave this place. Let me go. If you don’t let me leave this place, I will die now!”“Anya, don’t be rash. Think about the children. Can you bear to leave the children? If you die, what will happen to the children? Can you bear to see them without a mother?”I was stunned and calmed down.If I die, the children will certainly be very sad.However, if I stayed here, I would certainly die.“Evan, I want a car. Let me go. I am leaving now. Give me a password and identification…”“Anya, don’t push your luck!”Evan subconsciously took another step forward.Seeing him move, I panicked even more. “Don’t come over. Don’t come over!”My emotions turned increasingly unstable, and my hoarse roar made me black out and fall out.“Ah!!”Evan’s POV:“Anya…” I cried out in surprise. I rushed forward and grabbed the handrai
Anya’s POV:Footsteps sounded outside the door.My heart tightened. Evan seems to be back. I will hang up first.”As I spoke, I hurriedly hung up the phone.At the same time, the door was kicked open.Evan walked in with a gloomy expression. “Anya, who are you talking to?”“No, no one.”“No one?” Evan’s eyes were filled with a sense of murder.“Give me your phone.”“I really didn’t…” Fear appeared in my eyes.Evan sneered and snatched my phone away.Evan’s POV:In the past month, I deliberately didn’t confiscate her phone to see if she could contact Kester.Of course, Anya’s phone had already been installed with this listening system. I would know if she called anyone.After reading the call log, I smile sinisterly. “Didn’t you say you have nothing to do with Kester? Why are you calling him now? Do you want him to save you?”Anya’s POV:Seeing this I retreated in fear.Looking at the fur in his eyes, I trembled.In the past month, my depression had relapsed again. I was struggling and
Anya’s POV:I know that he loved to speak in reverse.He was just provoking me by saying all of this.If I did, as he said, he might end up kidding me.“I’m talking to you. Can’t you hear me?” Having lost patience, he grabbed my collar, lifting me.I lifted my eyelids slightly, looking at him with exhaustion and indifference.“Evan, I am really tired. Can you just let me go?”Evan’s POV:My heart skipped a beat while my brows furrowed immensely.Meanwhile, my heart aches as well.I was not a narrow minded man, but when it comes to ambiguous relationship between Kester and Anya, I offered no room for tolerance.I couldn’t bear the thought of her having another man in her art, even if it was just a small fraction.Her beautiful eyes were now filled with endless sadness. “Evan, let’s let go of each other. I don’t want anything anymore, and I just want a little freedom. Please let me go. I am willing to give up everything, including the Walter group.”As her last sentence trailed off wear
Evan’s POV:Anya kept her eyes shut, allowing me to shake her,However, her response drove me to the brink of madness.She was like a flexible knife, seemingly harmless but capable of inflicting significant harm.She excelled at the silent treatment and disliked arguing with me.It seemed to me that no matter how angry or violent I became, she would retaliate in the gentlest yet most devastating way.It always drove me to the brink of madness, making me want to conquer her in bed.Anya’s POV:In the next few days, I continued suffering from high temperatures.Because of that, Evan, perhaps carrying a hint of humanity, did not punish me further.Besides, he had to go to M city to manage the Green Bay construction project, so he didn’t spend much time in X city.In other words, I had narrowly avoided a disaster.After five days of recuperation, my body had recovered to some extent. Although the fever had subsided, I felt mentally exhausted.However, there was no way for me to leave.She
Evan’s POV:After a brief pause, I made a decision to let the children in, knowing that they had a special place in Anya heart and hoping that they could persuade her.Without hesitation, I walked to the door and let the children in.“Mommy, what happened to you?” Jason and Jerry were taken back to see Anya’s literature appearance as soon as they entered.Flora also said anxiously, “Mommy, are you feeling unwell?”“Mm!” Anya weekly lifted her gaze towards the children.“Did you to have another fight?” The three children quietly asked as they sensed that something was wrong.Flora pouted, looking pitiful as she looked at me. “Daddy, can’t you please stop fighting with Mommy? We don’t want you to fight again…”Upon hearing that I instantly put on a loving and gentle smile, “You guys are good kids. Well, Daddy and Mommy didn’t have a fight. You are over thinking it.”“Really?” The three little fellows were skeptical.“Of course. Daddy and Mommy will never fight. We are most loving couple
Evan’s POV:It was five o’clock in the afternoonI could not concentrate at work because I was worried that Anya would do something unpredictable again. Thus, as soon as it struck five, I left the office and headed home early.“Good evening, Mr. Carter,” the servants greeted in unison.I walked into the house with a gloomy expression.Miranda was waiting in the living room. When I saw her, I asked with a long face. “Miranda, how is Anya doing?”Miranda wore a mournful face as she replied sadly, “Anya has been in the room and just has not come out yet.”I frowned after hearing that, “She didn’t came out for the entire day.”“That’s right!”“Has she eaten anything?” My brows furrowed even more now.I was very worried because when Anya, a stubborn woman in my eyes, got angry, she would torment herself like crazy. Although I was mad at her, I had no intention of breaking ties with her completely.I wished she were smarter and capable of coaxing him a little more. I also longed for her to
