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
Tina’s POV:After the call ended, I couldn’t help but cry uncontrollably.However, no matter how sad I was, I didn’t dare to ask any further.Now, as long as I can marry Evan, I am willing to turn a blind eye to everything else.That’s why, even though I know that Evan was with Anya last night, I didn’t dare to cause trouble for him.I knew that even if Evan was willing to marry me, it was only out of sympathy, not because he loved me!”However, after crying for a few seconds I suddenly sneered.‘So what if there is no love?’‘As long as I became a Mrs. Carter, I would be able to change my social status completely. Even if I and I got divorced, I would be able to get a large sum of money from him.’“Anya, this time I will never let you steal Evan! No matter what. I will marry into the Carter family and become Mrs Carter!”Anya’s POV:The next day, I woke up around 5:00.I had to fly to Malta today, and the flight would take 11 hours. So, I need to prepare my luggage in advance.“Ora,
Evan’s POV:“Mr. Carter…”I made a shushing gesture, signaling Rose not to wake Anya up.She nodded, looking frightened.Then, I pointed at the flight attendant behind me and gestured for her to follow the flight attendant to go to the first-class cabin in front!She looked at sleeping Anya uneasily as if she wanted to say something.However, in the end, she didn’t say anything and just stood up quietly and followed the flight attendant into the first-class cabin.After she left, I carefully sat in Rose’s seat.Then, I gently, put her hand on my shoulder.As I looked at her sleeping face, my lips curled up into a mocking smile.‘Little thing, don’t even think about getting rid of me.’ I thought.‘The pry, I had my eyes would never escape my grasp.Even though I agreed to marry Tina, I didn’t promise her that I would not find another woman outside.In case I would find another woman, it was better to find someone familiar than a stranger.What’s more, I didn’t buy the whole moral thing
Jenny’s POV:The family began to take turns calling Zachary.Unfortunately, we still couldn’t get through to him.At this point, four to five hours had passed since the first call.Mom's eyebrows kept twitching and she had a bad feeling, “Will something happen to Zachary?”Dad frowned and said angrily, “What could happen to him? Who knows where he went to play again? This rascal is becoming more and more useless.”“Forget about him. Let’s eat first!”“Impossible. No matter how ridiculous Zachary is, today is a special day. He couldn’t possibly be not coming back today!”“We have been unable to get through him. Something must have happened! Let’s quickly send someone to look for him!”When Dad heard this, his frown deepened.Zachary liked to spend time drinking and merry-making and preferred to come and go alone. Therefore, he did not like to bring bodyguards.I also started to get anxious, “Something might have happened to Zachary. Just now he said that he would be home in half an hou
Zachary’s POV:I quickly walked to the car and hurriedly opened the door.It was not until I got into the car that my pounding heart felt a little better.“Hurry up and go home…”Buzz!After I started the car, I got out of the parking lot as if I was fleeing.This hotel was about 25 miles away from the Garcia residence.Without traffic, I could reach home in less than an hour.The Garcia family was also wealthy. Wealthy families paid more attention to privacy and safety. Their residences were usually very remote. Many of them were mansions halfway up the mountain, far away from the city.I was driving home.It was halfway through the journey. After a few more turns of tree-paved roads, I was able to see the top of the mountain where the Garcia residence was located.“Beep! Beep! Beep!”When I made a turn, my phone suddenly rang.“How annoying…” I thought that my sister was urging me to go home again, so I picked up the phone and answered it.“I already said I will be home soon. Stop c
Jenny’s POV:Today was Christmas Eve.Almost everyone returns home to spend the New Year with their families.The Garcia family was naturally no exception.As soon as I walked into the house, Mom stood up with the blame on her face. “Jenny, you are finally back. I called you so many times, but you didn’t answer. What are you busy with?”“I am back now. Merry Christmas Daddy and Mommy!” I hugged my mom happily.Dad stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. He pushed up his round-frame glasses and said unhappily, “What time is it? Why isn’t your brother home yet?”“That’s right! What’s going on with Zachary recently? He doesn’t come back more and more.”“He is also listless and distracted every time he comes back. This brat is getting more and more outrageous.”When I heard this, I secretly curled my lips in disdain.I know that my brother and Tina were dating.Now that his little girlfriend was gone, he must be sad.“Hurry up and call your brother. Tell him to come back quickly.”
Anya’s POV:“You are the one who came to me, not the other way around. If you don’t believe me, you might as well return.”“Miss Garcia, I am asking you for your help sincerely. If you continue with this attitude, we really can’t continue this conversation.” I stood up and pretended to leave.Seeing this, Jenny panicked and suddenly stood up, “Anya, what do you want?”I shrugged slightly, “I said that as long as you can get Evan out, I will certainly leave X city. I will keep my word. I can write you a guarantee.”“Hah, what’s the use of that?”I sneered, “Of course. It had a legal effect. As long as I leave X city, with your outstanding looks and family background, Evan will certainly fall in love with you over time.”Jenny’s POV:When I heard this, my eyes darkened. I also agreed with Anya’s words.As long as Anya left X city forever, then my chances with Evan were considerable.“Alright, I will believe you this once. Then write to me a guarantee. If you go back on your word at that
Jenny’s POV:I was stunned.I had looked for Anya and Evan before, but they all rejected me.Now that Anya had taken the initiative to look for me again, I was surprised.“Why? Have you thought it through? Are you willing to sacrifice yourself for him?”Anya took a deep breath. “Yes, if you have a way to get Evan out, I am willing to accept your suggestion to leave X city and never come back.”I rolled my eyes when I heard that.“Are you serious? You are not going to tease me again, are you?”“Why would I? I am very sincere!”“Alright then come to City Cafe!”“Will do.”Then I hung up the phone.Anya’s POV:After hanging up, I said, “Sam Drive to the City cafe!”“Alright!”City Cafe is X city’s most upscale coffee shop.At the same time, Jenny owned the place. It should be very safe to meet here.Thirty minutes later, Sam drove the car and arrived at City Coffee.“Where are you? I am already at the door.”“Then come in.”“Sam take the kids home first, then pick me up.”“Okay.”I got o
Anya’s POV:When I heard this, I felt a punch in my heart again.“Daddy will be out soon. Be good when Daddy isn’t around. Don’t be naughty, and don’t make Mommy angry.”“Yes, we will.”“Give the phone to Mommy. Let Daddy and Mommy a few words.”Anya took the phone. Her eyes were still a little red. “Don’t worry. The children have been good!”At this moment, I want to smash the glass window and hug the four of them.“Anya, I am worried about your safety. If anything happens to you, I can’t accept.”Anya pondered for a few seconds, “After the New Year. I will send the children overseas.”“What about you?”“Of course, I had to stay here!”When I heard this, my eyes turned even redder.I suddenly regretted it.I felt that I should never have given Anya the position o
Evan’s POV:(There was a shooting on Eastern Avenue, seriously injuring three people.)(The target of the gunshot is suspected to be the Carter Group’s new president.)I was special. Therefore, I lived in a separate cell that was even occupied with that television.After watching the news early in the morning, I was so shocked that my scalp went numb. I felt as if the blood in my body flowed backward.Bang! Bang! Bang!I patted the prison door.A guard walked over, “What’s the matter, Mr. Carter?”“I need to make a phone call.”“No, you are still in custody…”My eyes widened and I shouted, “I have to make a phone call now. Or you have to bear the consequences.”Seeing that I was agitated, the guard didn’t dare to act on his own. He quickly went to ask his superior.My request was approved by the higher-ups.I finall
Anya’s POV:My eyes were filled with vigilance. I completely ignored Liam’s expression.I would not react so dramatically if Liam just come to visit on any other day. But today, I had just been shot by the criminals, and Liam had come to the door.It was not hard to connect the two things.In particular, if something happened to me and my child, Liam would undoubtedly be the biggest beneficiary.“Mr. Miller, it’s getting late. I think it’s time for you to leave. I won’t keep you for dinner.” My heart was in turmoil as I directly ordered Liam to leave.When Liam heard this, he was even angrier.“Hmph!” He snorted and walked away.After he left the house, Jason and Jerry looked at me in confusion. “Mommy, why are you so angry towards Grand Uncle?”Usually, I was very gentle, and exceedingly polite when I faced the elders.But today, I am almost like a bulldog. I was not gentle at all.“Jason, Jerry, in the future when Mommy is not by your side, you can’t accept anything from anyone.” As
Tatiana’s POV:Although I had not been shot, I had been stabbed in the abdomen during the fight with the criminal.I was now in the ambulance, rushing to the hospital for treatment.“What about Coral and Kody? How are they doing?”I took a deep breath. “The police have arrived. The criminals have already escaped. Kody and Coral have been sent to the hospital.”Anya’s voice paused, “What about you? How are you?”“I am in an ambulance heading to the hospital!”When she heard this, she became even more worried, “I understand. I will rush to the hospital now!”I took another deep breath. “Miss Walter, don’t show your face for the time being. I am afraid the criminals will make a comeback. Gael has already rushed to the hospital with his men. If you want to stay safe, don’t show yourself so easily.”“Alright! I understand!” She had on the phone.Anya’s POV:I was still uneasy and wanted to go to the hospital to check on the three of them immediately.Who was the vicious person who wanted m
