Anya’s POV:
This time, I would never compromise again.
Flora also pleaded for mercy. “Mommy, Daddy has already apologized to you. Can you forgive him? Mommy, I bag you. Please forgive, Daddy.”
I was still unmoved.
Evan had used our child as leverage, manipulating me with money and resorting to unethical tactics to control me.
I had had enough.
If I took a step back now, I would lose myself again which would lead the internal damnation.
The Doctor came over to change the dressing again. The prescription was ready. “Mr. Carter, the patient has lost too much blood and will be staying in the hospital for two days.”
“Okay.”
“Anya, do you want some water?”
I didn’t answer.
“Drink some water.” Evan eagerly poured a glass of water.
Lillian could not stand it anymore. “Mr. Carter, you didn’t sleep last night. Let me take care
Evan’s POV:I was furious. I pressed her down in bed.I love conquering her in bed.However, this time, Anya didn’t resist. She was like a soulless doll.“Anya, I am now your creditor. I ordered you to speak to me. Don’t force me to break the contract, and don’t fight me head-on.”Anya closed her eyes. She didn’t resist or struggle.I could not bear to torture her and felt dejected.“Alright! You won. Do whatever you want! Anya, let me tell you one more time. Don’t think that I won’t be able to live if I leave you! Even without you, I am still me, underlying and unafraid.”I declared, my voice filled with growing aggression.In the final burst of anger, I forcefully slammed the door behind me and stormed off.Since she was ignoring me, I would let her be.In any case, I had to work to do. In the past, when I was happy, I would bury myself in work.
Anya’s POV:The servant prepared breakfast as usual. I woke up early in the morning and called the children for breakfast.Although I didn’t have to do everything myself, I still wanted to take care of the children as much as I could as a mother.“Jason, Jerry, hurry up and come over for breakfast.”The two little guys dawdled over, “Mommy, did you change the dressing on your arm?”“Yes, yes. I have already changed it.”“Oh!”As we were talking, Evan strode down the stairs.As usual, he was wearing a suit and looked noble and elegant. However, his face was dark as ice and exuded a murderous aura.When he passed by the dining room, the two little guys greeted him in unison, “Good morning, Daddy!”“Morning!” Evan replied.Without even looking at me, he passed through the dining room and walked out.Similarly, I didn’t give him a second glance. I treated him like an air.The two little guys looked at each other and exchanged glances. “Mommy, can you make spaghetti for us this afternoon?”
Anya’s POV:Around 3:30 PM, Jason and Jerry return from the school.My arm injury might not have healed completely, but it was still reliably easy to make spaghetti.Since the children wanted to eat, I would certainly do it.“Mommy, we are back.”“Are you hungry? I will make you spaghetti?”Jason shook his head, “I am not hungry yet. Mommy, can you cook later?”“Yeah, sure!”“Then we will go practice riding now.”When I heard this, I frowned, “Jason, your arm hasn’t fully healed yet. The splint is still on. How can you ride a horse again?”“What if you fall again? Stay away from the hoarse for the time being?”“It’s okay. My arm is much better. It doesn’t hurt anymore.”“No! Be a good boy. Go finish your homework.”“Okay!”Jason replied upset and turned to return to his room.“Jerry, you are not allowed to ride during this period either. You have to stay with your brother.”“Mommy, my arm is fine. Why can’t I ride a horse?”I squatted down and looked at my son calmly. “When Jason sees
Anya’s POV:Therefore, after I said it once, the children remember it.“After the sauce is ready, cook the noodles. After the noodles are cooked, fish them out and mix the sauce on them.”“Oh, it looks like it’s quite simple.”“Yes, make sure to control the heat properly. Don’t let the tomatoes burn.” I advised as I demonstrated by cooking process to my son.“Let me try.” Jerry volunteered.I patiently instructed my son guiding him through the basics. Before long Jerry gaps the fundamentals.Time passed quickly. It was already 10:00 p.m.I went back to my room to sleep.For the past few days, Evan didn’t sleep in the bedroom. I felt relaxed and I slept earlier.Jason’s POV:Around 10:30 a beam of light showed from outside the courtyard.Jerry got up. “Jason Daddy’s back!”“Really?”“Yeah! I heard Daddy’s car.”“It's time to make spaghetti.”“Yes, yes.”The two of us made our way to the kitchen, tiptoeing quietly. Fortunately, the Carter household was quite spacious, and Daddy rarely v
Anya’s POV:“Congratulations, Mrs. Carter, you are pregnant and expecting to have more than one.” The gynecologist said as she handed the report to me.‘Pregnant?’ I was stunned for a moment before I took the report from her. I subconsciously touched my belly as I still couldn’t believe life was lying here. Had I heard right? I was really pregnant?’“Mrs. Carter, however, you must be careful. Our examination indicates that your uterine wall is fragile, and you are expecting more than one child, which is very dangerous for your life.” The doctor said to me seriously as she could see the shock in my eyes.“I understood,” I said as take the reports and prescription from her.I walked out of the hospital in a daze, as I didn’t know how what to do. I am conflicted about whether I should tell Evan about my pregnancy or not.Even though Evan and I had been married for two years, our marriage was nothing more than a marriage between two families. And if for not the incident three years ago, I
Anya’s POV:As I opened my eyes, a strong smell of disinfectant rushed into my nose. After looking around, I realized that I was in the hospital.Suddenly, what happened in the morning rushed into my mind and I touched my belly. “My child… My child. Is he safe?’As I was thinking, a doctor came into the ward for the examination. Seeing him, I quickly looked at him and asked, “Doctor, how is my child? Is he safe?’Hearing my question doctor looked at him and replied, “We have saved your child for now, however… I will suggest you give up one child. Your condition was originally not very good and after this accident, it became even more complicated. If you insist on keeping all the children, it may risk your life…”At that moment, the door of the ward opened, and a man walked into the ward. The man was wearing a black suit and gold-rimmed glasses. He was also holding a briefcase in his hand.However, I had never seen him before…It seemed that he had seen the confused look in my eyes and
Anya’s POV:As I looked at their excited expression, I couldn’t help but sneered. ‘It was no wonder people say that money can do anything! It might be my first time seeing the member of the Walter family so excited after seeing me…’ I scoffed inwardly.The reason I came back this time was all because of my grandfather. In the Walter family, he was the only person who was nice to me and loved me. And since he had left the Walter Group in my hands, I don’t want to disappoint him. After all, it was my grandfather’s whole life work.And I didn’t want to get ruined in the hands of those useless people.“What’s there to be surprised about it? How can someone like her not show up at a time like this? She is such a greedy person and it’s a lot of money! How can she let it go?”Suddenly a sarcastic voice fell into my ears.I pulled back my thoughts and turned my head to look in the direction of the voice. Then, I saw, Harry, Mia’s son looking at me angrily.Harry had never treated me as his el
Mia’s POV:“Mom, it’s all your fault! If it weren’t for your stupid plan that year, that bitch Anya never able to get a chance to become Mrs. Carter!” Tara complained while stomping her feet in anger. “It’s been so long since Evan divorced that bitch, but he never mentions marrying me at once… and now when Anya is back… what I am going to do?”Hearing Tara's words, I could not help but grit my teeth grumpily. Whenever I thought about what happened six years ago, I couldn’t help but regret it. That was the only decision that I regret most in the world.At that time all I wanted to do was to kick Anya out of the house, so, I made a well-designed plan because I wanted Anya to bring dishonor to the family so that the old man kicked her out of the family, and she would lose her right of inheritance.But I had never expected that my plan would be backfired, and Anya slept with Evan. What was even more frustrating was that not only did that old man kick Anya out of the house but arranged for

Evan’s POV:I took a deep breath and said timidly, “Alright, alright, alright. I will die, alright?”While she was losing her mind, I jumped onto the table and rolled to the opposite of Anya like a cop.Then, I grabbed her arm firmly and snatched the broken wine bottle from her hand.“Let go of me! Evan, I am going to kill you!”I twisted her hand and hugged her tightly, “Alright, alright. I will let you kill me. Your hand is bleeding now. We are going to the hospital now.”“Can you kill me after your hand is bandaged?”“Let go of me, I will kill you right now.” Anya resisted with all her might.“Are you feeling better?”“Let’s go to the hospital!”Saying, that I forcefully carried her up.Anya’s arm was dripping with blood. Under the dim light. It was especially terrifying.I was terrified. I carrie
Evan’s POV:Having received a slap, Anya looked at me coldly,After hitting Anya, I felt my palm slightly numb. I was instantly sober.I couldn’t believe that I hit Anya again.The atmosphere instantly dropped to the freezing point. The girls huddled in a corner in fear.Half a minute later, Anya took a deep breath. Her anger reached it’s boiling point. With all her strength, she unleashed a powerful slap across my face. The sound was re-vibrating in the room.“Slap!” I also got a heavy slap.I was stunned for a moment. I looked at Anya in disbelief. My eyes almost spitting fire.Seeing this, everyone covered their mouths.After all, it was big news that I was slapped in public by my ex-wife.My bad temper was famous throughout the city. I had always been the one who hit others, and no one had ever dared to hit me back.My anger boiled within me, fueling my desire for revenge.
Evan’s POV:I was also a little tipsy. I subconsciously looked at my watch. “It’s already past ten. I should go home.”I didn’t want to drink with Jenny.I know she liked me. I didn’t want to give her any chance to flirt.“Evan, I have just arrived. Why are you leaving?” She looked disappointed.“That’s right! Jenny just arrived. If you leave, it will be too disappointing. You can’t leave. You promised to stay up all night tonight!”The siblings try to persuade me not to go back.Anya’s POV:I couldn’t get through to Evan so I called Coral.Coral quickly picked up the call. “Hello, Miss Walter.”“Coral, is Evan still in the company?”“Mr. Carter has already gotten off work and left the company a long ago.”“Then, where did he go? Did he go out to socialize?”&ldqu
Anya’s POV:My heart tightened and I quickly touched my daughter’s body.It was also very hot as well.The laboratory report from Flora showed that her platelets ratio was very low. The doctors said that she might have a leukemia attack and that having a fever would make her immunity even weaker.“Flora, I will take you to the hospital now,” I said as I wanted to pick my daughter up.“Rumble!”Crack!It began to rain heavily outside, and muffled thunder rumbled. Lighting tore through the night sky, one after another, and strong light showed into the house.“Mommy, I am scared.” Flora was most afraid of thunder. Every time there was a thunder, she would tremble in fear.“Don’t be afraid! Mommy is here!”“Mommy, where is Daddy? I miss Daddy.”Most daughters would feel safe with their father by their side. Flora was no exception. She
