Mia’s POV:As I exited the ward, I broke out in a wide smile.“Oh, thank goodness. Mr. Carter is finally marrying Tina!”“As soon as they got married, I will make sure I rub it in Mrs. White, Mrs. Patel, and others faces!”Frank frowned and said, “Look at you! Tina almost died. How could you still be in the mood to show off?”“Well, the process was frightening, but we get a happy ending. I didn’t expect her to have some of my old tricks up her sleeve. She sure pulled a cruel trick!”Just then, Harry and David also rushed to the hospital.“Mom, Dad how is Tina?”The duo prepared to push the door and enter the ward as they spoke, however, I quickly stopped them.“Don’t go in there. Tina is inside having a talk with Mr. Carter. Don’t go in and disturb them!”“Oh!”“I have a great news for you. Tina is finally getting married!”Harry looked surprised. “Really?” he asked.“Of course!”He slapped his thigh in excitement and exclaimed, “That’s great!”“Mom, Dad, I want a sports car!”Hearing
Paul’s POV:As I ran to the nurse’s station, I asked anxiously, “Which word is in Miss Tina Walter?”I was worried sick when I heard what happened to Tina.So, disregarding the danger of being discovered, I rushed to the hospital just to visit her.“Oh, I’m a friend of Miss Walter. I come special to visit her because I heard she had an accident.”“Miss Walter is in ward number 7.”“Alright, thank you!”With that, I went to a mad dash for ward number 7.However, when I got to the ward, I saw Mia and her husband there, so I dared not to intrude.So, I just wait outside. About more than an hour later, Mia and Frank finally left the ward.Mia had gone to the restroom, while Frank had gone to get food for Tina and Mia.I took advantage of this moment and spread into the ward.“Tina!”I had missed Tina to the core.Some time ago, she told me that she was getting married and would like to end our relationship.That night, I was mad as hell to take Tina into my arms, objecting to her wishes.
Evan’s POV:After resting for ten days, the wound on her wrist more or less healed up.On the day she was getting discharged, I went to the hospital to pick her up. Mia and Frank were also there.“Oh, Evan, now that Tina has been discharged from the hospital, what is your plan for marriage?” Mia asked.With a barely manageable smile, I answered, “We planned to go pick the wedding gown in a few days, but only after Tina’s body had completely recovered. After that, we will pick an auspicious date to get engaged.”Hearing that Mia’s mouth twitched slightly.I could tell from Mia’s expression that she was not satisfied with my answer.“Okay, then. You two call the shots. As your elders, we will only offer our advice when needed. Let’s hop in.”After the driver opened the car door, Mia got in the car first followed by Frank and Tina.I was the last to slide into the car.As the car headed for the Walter residence, my heart became heavier and more entangled as I thought of my feelings towar
Tina’s POV:“Paul, I’m really getting married. Let’s not contact each other again. Here are there are $40,000 in this card. Treat it as my compensation for you. Don’t come bothering me again.”Paul took off a cup of a cigarette and blew it towards my face. “I don’t want money, Tina. I only want you.’As I was getting dressed, I said peevishly, “You already know it, Paul. I’m getting married into the Carter family, and you simply can’t give me the happiness I desire. If you really love me, don’t stand in my way and take my happiness away from me.”He leaped up and embraced me again. “I will never stand in your way, Tina. I won’t even stop you from marrying into the Carter family. I only hope that we can continue our relationship. Even if you are married, you can always call me up…”“No way! You only get me killed.” I spurned his wishes outright.“But, Tina…”Before anything could happen, I had already finished tidying up at myself and scurried up out of the Lily Bar.Unlike the Walter
Rose’s POV:“What’s there to be fear about being engaged? It's common for men to cheat!”“Exactly! Engagement is not a big deal. Even if you are married, you can still get a divorce.”“There is a saying, that when there is a will, there is a way!”“Let’s go and say hello to Mr. Carter!”“I wouldn’t dare to. I am not that confident!”“I will go if you don’t!”“I’ll go to!”Then a few beauties, each grabbing a glass in their hands, walked towards Mr. Carter in groups.When the other two saw that, they also hastened to carry glass and went over.Indeed, for someone with Mr. Carter’s status, plenty of women were willing to become his lover.Ever since Mr. Cater had entered the venue, he didn’t say anything. He went straight to the corner and sat down.As he sat down, a few bodyguards immediately stood on the side, forming a half-moon shape.“Mr. Carter, Hello. I am…”“Mr. Carter doesn’t drink. Thank you.”As soon as the women tried to approach him, his two bodyguards immediately stopped t
Evan’s POV:As I saw Steven forcing Anya to drink, even after she was drunk, my face darkened.I had been enduring it all the time. After all, I am about to get engaged to Tina.Hence, I didn’t want to get involved in gossip.But now, I couldn’t stand it any longer and walked towards them.“Steven, I can’t drink anymore…”“Anya, are you drunk?”Steven asked in an ambiguous voice.Then, he slowly leaned closer to her, held her hand, and let Anya’s head rest on his shoulder!Everyone else was busy socializing, so no one came forward to ask anything.“Anya…” Steven gently held her hand.But before he could do anything, I lifted him by grabbing the back of his collar.Seemingly shocked, he subconsciously turned around.However, as soon as he turned around, I punched him in the face with a heavy force.“Ah…”Steven groaned and fell on the sofa. Soon, blood spurted out of his nose.Anya’s POV:Shocked by the sudden commotion, everyone also stopped what they were doing and went forward to wa
Anya’s POV:Because of the water, I finally regained consciousness. However, since my body was still weak, I just struggled helplessly.“Ugh! Let go of me!”I almost felt like I was drowning, and I started crying unconsciously.“Anya, look at yourself now. How dare you cry!”The gown on my body was already torn off my Evan.After a while, he threw a large towel over me and wrapped it around my body. Then, he carried me out of the bathtub.“Anya, you are so cheap! When did you become an escort? Do you climb into man’s beds to talk to business? Since you want to sleep with other men, you might as well sleep with me?”Saying that he threw me on the bed.“Ah!”Even though the bed was very soft, I was still dizzy from the fall.Evan loosened his tie, and his eyes were filled with lust and anger.“No…” I cried.However, ignoring my protest, Evan pounced over me like a wolf and pressed me under his body, as if he was haunting me!”“Urgh…” Before I could react, my breathing had already been b
Anya’s POV:“I am okay, thank you!” I politely declined.Then, enduring the pain in my abdomen and entire body I hurried out of the villa.Twenty minutes later, Rose drove over to pick me up.I opened the car door and got into the front passenger seat. Then, I asked anxiously, “Rose, where is Steven?”“Steven and his team had already returned to Malta! Before they left, Steven was very angry. He said that he wanted to terminate the cooperation with the Walter group.”As I heard this, I held my forehead. ‘That bastard Evan really gave me a headache.’ I cursed inwardly.“Give me the phone.”‘Here you go.” Rose handed the phone to me.I hurriedly dial the number.“Beep! Beep! Beep!”However, the busy tone came from the other end of the line! It was obvious that Steven had turned off his phone.‘Miss Walter Steven is probably on the plane and can’t answer the phone. Why don’t you call later?”I sighed in frustration and leaned against the seat helplessly.“Miss Walter should I send you to
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,
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
