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.&
Tim’s POV:The more I listened, the more irritated I became. These women only cared about money.If she didn’t mention money, the Helsen family would certainly not let her be short of money, because we were such a wealthy family. However, she kept asking for money by all means and didn’t actually care about Kester at all. Which was really repulsive.“Wait till the labor first! During this period, you are not allowed to go anywhere. You must stay here and wait for the delivery.”“Huh? I don’t think you should make me do that.”I completely lost my patience. I stubbed out the cigar in my ashtray and said to the bodyguard beside me, “Keep her under guard. If anything happened to the child, she doesn’t need to be kept alive anymore.”“Yes, Mr. Helsen!” The bodyguard said and went forward to snatch her arm.“Miss Ellen, please come with me.”She seemed to be in pain when the bodyguard snatched her. She blacked out and almost lost her balance.“Mr. Helsen, I will give birth to the child, bu
Anya’s POV:Miranda came back after buying some food.Seeing me in a daze, she hurriedly went forward and asked, “Anya. What’s wrong?”“Something happened to the company,” I said as I pushed my hand into my hair.The Walter Group was already like a candle in the wind right now. Now, it was pushed to the center of this storm. It was very likely that the Walter Group would be destroyed.Especially at this time, I didn’t know where else I could raise so much money.Six hundred million dollars!With companies current stock value, even if I sold all my shares, I would not be able to raise $600 million.Miranda’s eyes darkened, “What happened to the company?”“In short, it's a very tricky matter. The Walter Group is very likely to be bankrupt!”“Is it that serious?” Miranda was also frightened.I didn’t speak, feeling lost and helpless.Miranda’s eyes turned red, “Anya, how much do you need? I still have ten thousand dollars here. Just take it first.”I smiled bitterly and leaned weekly on
Anya’s POV:After the call, I felt even more despair.In a month, I couldn’t raise $600 million.Beep! Beep! Beep!Just as I hung up the phone buzzed again.“Hello, Ethan!”On the other end of the line, Ethan said in a heavy voice. “Miss Walter, when are you coming back? The company is in a mess now. Many employees are asking to resign. Also, our partners are requesting to terminate our contracts. Please come back quickly. The company really can’t hold on anymore!”“Okay, I understand. I will make time to go back in the next few days.”“Okay. I will try to comfort our business partners again.”“Alright!”After hanging up, I leaned against the hospital bed weekly and tiredly.The fact that Walter Group was about to go bankrupt made everyone panicked.Even if I sold all my properties, I would not be able to raise $600 million.I stayed in the hospital for another three days.Kester had been lying in the intensive care unit for 12 days.Today, after repeated examination, the doctor confi
Author’s POV:Half an hour later, Evan arrived at the Walter Group on time.“Hello, Mr. Carter, why are you here?”“I have an appointment with Anya.”“Oh, Miss Walter is in the office. I will bring you there.”Evan didn’t say anything and just strode toward Anya’s office.He was very familiar with this place and didn’t need anyone to lead me the way.“Oh my God! Why is Mr. Carter here?”“I don’t know. It’s amazing!”“Do you think Mr. Carter will help Miss Walter?”“That’s hard to say. If Mr. Carter is willing to help, our company will certainly be able to survive this!”“Let’s hope so!”Anya’s POV:“Miss Walter, Mr. Carter is here!”Daisy pushed open the office door. Her voice was filled with excitement.I also subconsciously stood up from my chair.Then, Evan walked in. As usual, he was wearing a nice suit and looked fabulous. He always looked so noble and elegant.“Evan, you are here…” I didn’t know what to say and could not help but feel nervous.Evan’s POV:I sized up Anya and fel
Anya’s POV:I was really in despair.In any case, the worst-case scenario was death!If Kester could not make it, I didn’t want to live anymore.My only regret was that I could not bring the Walter Group to greater heights. Instead, I destroyed my grandfather’s life work.Seeing that I’d given up, Evan thought for a while and held my shoulder. “It's fine if you don’t want to remarry me. You have to be my lover for five years. Five years later, I will give you back your freedom. Is that enough?”When I heard this, I raised my eyes slightly and looked at Evan bleakly.“No… no way…”He smiled bitterly, “Haha, if you don’t agree to this condition, then there is nothing I can do. I still have something on. I gotta run now.”With that, he turned around and walked towards the office door.He knows that I don’t have any other options.Seeing that Evan was about to leave, I panicked even more, “Let me think about it.”“Sure! I will give you a week to think about it. Call me when you make up yo
Anya’s POV:Naturally, I couldn’t tell the Helsen family about this.I didn’t intend to tell anyone that no matter what method I used, I would certainly cut ties with Evan, as long as I endured the next two years.Facing Tim, I heaved a sigh. I lowered my head and explained in a low voice. “Mr. Helsen, my company is facing a very troublesome problem in the future. I might come less often. I hope you won’t blame me.”He seized me up and didn’t ask too much. “It’s all up to you. Kester has nursing workers here. It doesn’t matter if you come or not.”“I am sorry. When I get through the difficulties of the company, I will certainly come and repay the debt I owe Kester!” After I finished speaking, I bowed to Tim and left.****After I returned to exit, Evan handed the contract to me.“Have you thought it through?”My eyes darkened. “Yes, I have made up my mind.”“Then sign the contract.”I took the contract and glanced at it. The contract was in line with Evan’s usual style of doing things
Anya’s POV:The higher-ups looked at each other in confusion as I looked at Caleb in shock.Bad things kept happening to the company recently.The directors withdrew one by one, which was undoubtedly a big blow to the company.I had just borrowed $600 million to redeem the mortgaged shares and I didn’t expect Caleb to withdraw from the company’s shares again.If no one took over, the Walter group would still face bankruptcy.Seeing everyone's shocked expression, Caleb smiled and comforted, “Everyone don’t worry. Someone more suitable than me will take over my shares.”My eyebrows twitched, “Caleb, why don’t you discuss such a big matter with me first?”“Oh, Miss Walter, it's the same if I tell you now. I realized that I am not suitable for the rules in the domestic business world. I have already decided to shift my focus overseas. I will be handing over my work for the
Anya’s POV:As soon as I walked out of the courtroom, a group of large reporters swarmed over and reached their microphones toward me.“Miss Walter, are the result of Mr. Carter’s trial out?”“Excuse me, what about Mr. Carter? Was he acquitted?”“Miss Walter, does Mr. Carter know that you and Mr. Helsen were kissing on the pier?”“Can you tell me who you love? Will you get back together Mr. Helsen?”“Get out of the way!” The bodyguard blocks the reporters.Under the escort, I got into the car with a gloomy face.“Miss Walter, please say something….”The reporters didn’t want to give up. They gathered around the car and kept asking questions.Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, “Mr. Carter is coming out! Let’s go interview him!”When the reporter saw this, they stopped pestering me and ran towards the entrance of the courtroom.Jenny’s POV:The door of the courtroom opened from inside.Evan and I walked side by side.I snuggled intimately beside Evan with a sweet smile on my face. A
Anya’s POV:Evan’s case was finally about to go to trial.At 8:00 a.m. on Monday, I went to court number one in X city.No matter what I would show up.Jenny also came to the court early in the morning.When she and I met, we gave each other a murderous look. I took a seat on the left side of the gallery.Jenny deliberately sat on my right side as she rolled her eyes and said arrogantly, “I didn’t expect you to come. Don’t you feel ashamed! If I were you, I wouldn’t have come to embarrass myself!”Jenny had been well prepared before she came.A bunch of reporters are waiting outside the courtroom. As soon as the trial ends, they will certainly rush over and bomb me with questions.I was currently at the center of the storm. So it was confirmed that I shouldn’t have shown up. When I just arrived, the reporter asked me a lot of questions. If bodyguards had not pushed them away, I would not able to enter the courtroom.Hearing Jenny challenge me arrogantly, I immediately shot back, “Unfo
Liam’s POV:I froze on this spot as well.Even my workout was demagnetized.“Oh my god, even Mr. Miller’s work card is invalid. Anya has gone too far! She is so heartless.”“Hurry up and get Anya here. We want her to explain it to us. What the hell does she want from us?”I was the company’s second-largest shareholder and Evan’s biological Uncle. I didn’t expect Anya to be so ruthless, even to me!“That’s right! Hurry up and get her out. She has to explain it to us. This is too much. How could she treat us like this?”“Miss Walter said that if you didn’t submit your work reports within three days, you are giving up your shares in the company.” The lobby manager reminded.Miss Linken's lips trembled from anger, “What’s wrong with her? It’s fine if she doesn’t take us seriously. How can she be so mean to Mr. Miller? If she doesn’t come out, we will break in!”Anya’s POV:I was working in my office when Mark hurried to my office to report what happened, “Miss Walter, Mr. Miller and Ms. L
Anya’s POV:My head buzzed. I looked blankly at my son, not knowing how to answer.Jason paused briefly before continuing, “Mom, Mr. Helsen is good. We like him very much too. But we just want him to be our Uncle Helsen forever, not our dad.”Jerry immediately said in response to Jason’s words, “That’s right! Mom, you said that you would wait for Dad to come out, right? Mom, can you not abandon Dad? I want our family to be together forever.”I looked at the kid helplessly, saying, “You silly, who told you this?”“We saw the news on the Internet.”I took a deep breath and stroked the children’s heads one by one.“Sometimes what you see might not be the truth. That’s the nonsense written by the media. Do you believe what Mom told you or the story the people others made?”When the kids heard they said in unison, “We believe in mom, of course!”“That’s good. Since you trust me, I will tell you what happened. I met up with Mr. Helsen because I had something important to discuss with him. I
Anya’s POV:I frowned.I was asking the board members to report on their work, not the employees.It seemed like the employees who had just participated in the meeting were frightened.“Alright, just leave them on the table!”“Miss Walter, do you have any other instructions?”“No. That’s all!”“Then we will go out first.”“Okay.”After Mark and David left, I stroked my forehead and called Donald.I wanted to ask if the Green Bay project was done.Ring! Ring! Ring!After ringing for a moment, Donald answered quickly. “Hello!”“Mr. Donald, it’s me, Anya!”“Oh, it’s Miss Walter! How may I help you?” Donald asked respectfully.“How is the Green Bay project going?”Donald pondered for a moment before he answered. “Well, its in progress. There should be results soon.”“When can the construction site be resumed?”“We are waiting for documents to be approved. As soon as its approved, we can get back to work. Miss Walter, don’t worry. I have been keeping an eye on it. I will report you if ther
Author’s POV:Anya was Evan’s beloved woman, and they could not afford to offend her before.But now everyone knows that she cuckolded Evan.She was nothing without Evan’s support, and no one would take her seriously.The look in Anya’s eyes turned stern, “It’s been ten days since we started work after the New Year holiday. You guys should at least summarize what you have done during this time, right?”“Miss Walter, you must be kidding. You have not been to the office for five days, but you are asking us to do a work summary. If you want us to report on our work, you should take the lead to report on yours, right? After all, you are the new head of the cooperation, " the female director said sarcastically.She joined Carter Group when Evan’s grandfather was in charge of the company and has been working here for almost 30 years.Even Evan had to show some respect to her.She
Author’s POV:A big-eyed beauty at the front desk whispered to the customer service manager beside her, “Tsk tsk. I didn’t expect Miss Walter dare to come back to work. I thought she was too ashamed to see anyone and hid away!”The customer service manager pursed her lips. Then she sighed and commented, “You are overthinking! After all, that’s Miss Water. She has been through a lot and has seen everything. The rumors this time have nothing to her!”Another customer service representative with a round face and short hair mocked, “That’s right! Miss Walter is famous for attracting handsome and wealthy men. Some people had to work hard their entire lives. However, Miss Walter goes faster and higher in her career than anyone by using men as her stepping stone. In just two years, she has become the richest woman in X city. “Well, people have different storylines. I have to say, Miss Walters’ tracks are
Anya’s POV:When I heard this, I couldn’t help but frown.Tibetan mastiffs are large-sized and fierce. I don’t think having one with my children is a good idea!Thus, I said, “Well! Maybe not a Tibetan mastiff? It will be troublesome if he bites you. I think a teddy or a corgi sounds like a better choice.”Hearing this Jerry shook his head heavily. “Mommy, I don’t like small dogs. I like Tibetan mastiffs. They look like lions. By the way, Daddy also keeps many animals in the backyard. However, Daddy never allowed us to enter!”Jason and Flora were playing with building blocks. However, they run over quickly when they hear Jerry could have a pet.Jason carried Flora over since Flora could not walk herself.Flora got sick very often, so she was thin. Jason has no difficulties carrying her.Jason placed his sister on the sofa. Then he sat on my other side and said, “Mommy, I wa
Anya’s POV:I went up to take a look. Coral’s leg was still splinted. However, Kody’s injury was more severe. Kody lay on the bed and couldn’t get up on his own.Although I have not visited them at the hospital over the past few days, the Butler reported everything to me.Coral had no problem recovering. However, Kody has difficulties recovering as before. Even if Kody recovered, he could probably not drive again. What’s worse? There was the possibility that Kody would be disabled.Luckily, the insurance company compensated lot for Coral and Kody. The Carter Group also compensated a decent amount of money for Coral and Kody getting work injuries.The compensation for Kody and Coral was enough for them to live well for the rest of their lives if they did not squander the money. They would probably quit their jobs at the Carter Group when their injuries are healed.I comforted them gently. “Don’t worry
