Mr. Paul POV:As I looked at the reports in my hand, I couldn’t help but get shocked.Anya is the vice president of JK Technologies… How can this be possible?“I was vice-president of JK technologies in charge of domestic operations. Here are the financial statement for the last three years. I think you all must have heard that JK’s profit in this region have increased in last few years.”As I was lost deep in my thoughts, Anya’s voice pulled my thoughts back to reality.Hearing her words, everyone in the meeting room had the same expression, shock!After all, JK Technologies was too well-known in the whole world to ignore any information about it. And to be the vice-president of JK technologies at such a young age, luck was required, but it was not gonna happen without abilities.“Wait, a minute! You can’t be the famous Miss Walter of JK Technologies, can you?” I could not help but ask in shock.Anya smiled confidently at me and replied, “Yes, that’s me.”As soon as she finished spea
Anya’s POV:I had never spent a penny of my father’s money ever since I was a kid, nor felt any father in love from him. What’s more, I only returned to X city at the age of 12 after my mother died.“Anya, did I hear it right? You are going to kick me, your father, out?”I looked at him coldly. “I am not kicking you out. It’s that you are not fit to be in the Walter Group anymore!”Nowadays, the Walter Group is crammed with Mia’s all kinds of relatives. These people all came here to slack off. The Walter Group would go down sooner or later if I didn’t get rid of them.“Good, very good! What a dutiful daughter! What a misfortune for my family! I have raised you for nothing. How could I have given birth to… to such an ungrateful person like you!” My father said as he pounded the desk angrily.“Dad, for so many years, you have never really raised me. I have never spent a penny of your money. So please don’t say that you raised me or anything like that ever again.” I said coldly.My words
Anya’s POV:Looking at my two little angels, the anger I felt before all flew away.“Mommy is still in the meeting. You need to go home. After the meeting, I will go back with you, okay?” I said, smiling at them.Jerry stuck his hands into his pockets, his face was extremely serious. “Mommy, Jason and I are worried that you might be bullied. We are going to stay here and protect you!” he said.Hearing this, I couldn’t help smiling. “My dear, boys, thank you. But Mommy needs to finish the meeting first and you will distract Mommy by staying here!”“Well… sure! You go to the meeting first Mommy, and we will wait for you here. I will take care of Jason and not make any trouble!” Jerry said.“Yeah, we are not going anywhere, Mommy!” Jason also nodded.Seeing them, I couldn’t feel warm in my heart. They are about the same age, but both of them have different personalities. Jerry is unusually intelligent. On the other hand, Jason is harp-witted and very good at observing people.“No one bul
Anya’s POV:As I looked at Evan's calm face, I wanted to slap him hard in the face!As I was cursing Evan in my heart, my father’s impatience voice fell into my ear.“Anya, if you sign in, I will let you be the chairman. However, I must warn you that I don’t think you can fulfil that promise. By then, you will lose everything and bring more shame to the whole Walter family. Then that time comes. I will cut off from you as well. Of course, if you give up the shares right now, you will still my beloved daughter. And as your father, I will certainly treat you well!”It would not need to be genius to know what he was implying.He was threatening me, that if I was determined to replace him, then he would cut off the father-daughter relationship between us.Suddenly, I felt a chill rising in my heart for no reason!First, it was the obstruction from my ex-husband, and now my father started morally blackmailing me as well.This is certainly a tough moment!“Fine. I will sign it.However, I ha
Mia’s POV:After getting rid of the security guards, I chased after Anya. However, as soon as I came out, I was surrounded by the reporters at once.“Mrs, Walter, can you tell us what has happened?” one of the reporters asked.Seeing the reporters, I took a deep breath as I didn’t want to ruin my fair lady image in front of the public. Then I said, “What happened is that we, Walter have raised an ungrateful girl who has turned her back on us today! She has no mercy even for her father!”“Mrs. Walter, what do you think of Anya’s relationship with Mr. Helsen?”“Rumors has it that Anya’s bought into Shining Star Media. Is it true?”“It’s her private business. You should ask her.” I said with a dark face as I was not in the mood for an interview. “Stealing men from other women and taking away properties from others. That kind of thing happens a lot. However, you need to see through all these. The Helsen family is a very respectable one. Will they allow a woman like that, to marry their fa
Anya’s POV:At the seven-star hotel.After leaving the Walter Group, I returned to the hotel, feeling exhausted.I had booked a suite here and had already paid for months. I also hired three nannies to look after the children.It was not that I could not afford a house. However, at that moment, the convenience of the hotel was more important to me!“Mommy, you are back?”As soon as I opened the door, the two little fellows ran toward me.“Yeah, Mommy is back!” I bent down to stroke my son’s head first then changed my slippers.“And Ora, how is she?”“Ora has just woken up!”“Okay, Mommy is going to check on her first, alright?”Then, I changed my clothes, washed my face and hands, disinfected myself, and went to my daughter’s room.“Ora, Mommy’s home!”“Mommy!”The little girl was lying on her bed. As soon as she saw me, a bright smile appeared on her skinny face.Ora had been hurt by a congenital heart defect and hemolytic anemia ever since she was born. The hemamebas in her body wer
Anya’s POV:Buzz… buzz…As I was sleeping, my phone suddenly rang.I picked up my phone on the bedside table. It was Kester!“Jester? What are you calling me for this hour?”On the other end, the line Kester’s worried voice replied, “Anya, have you seen the news?”“What news?” I rubbed my eyes, confused.“Check on your cellphone and read the entertainment news!”Hearing that my heart skipped a beat as I had a very bad feeling about this.I still remember how badly I had been roasted six years ago. Back then, I was still that innocent girl, and even thought about jumping off the roof to end my life. I prayed that it would not happen to me ever again.I shivered and unlocked my phone. And in an instant, more than five notifications popped up. And they were all about me.“After hooking up with her brother-in-law and getting kicked out, Anya Walter has moved to her next victim!”“The former lady of X city fell out with her family for inheritance. Her father was kicked out of the board, an
Evan’s POV:I left for my office early in the morning. I wanted to take care of my business affairs first before going back to my game with Anya.When I entered the meeting room, all the executives of the group were already sitting tightly with grim expressions on their faces.“Good morning, Mr, Cater.”As soon as I entered, they all greeted me.“Let’s get started!” I said as I stopped at the end of the long conference table and sat down.My secretary turned on the projector in a hurry and then served me a hot cup of coffee.One after another, the executives also turned on their laptops, ready to take notes!“We will focus on three aspects today, and…”I said as I opened my laptop, but my voice broke the next second.As soon as I opened the laptop, a picture popped out.Moreover, my laptop was connected to the projector so everyone in the room was now looking at a naked picture of a man on the big screen!‘What the hell!’All executives exchanged shocked glances and some of them were,
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:“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
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: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
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
Evan’s POV:In the office, I sat on the leather chair. My face was terrifyingly ominous, but at the same time, it was ashen white.I had just undergone surgery yesterday. Although it was not a particularly major surgery, the scalpel was still used. It was very damaging to my overall well-being.Beep! Beep! Beep!Just then my phone rang. It was from Flora.“Hello, Baby!”On the video call interface, Flora leaned close to the screen. Her big eyes filled with worry, “Daddy, where are you now?”“What’s wrong baby?” My expression softened and revealed a trace of warmth.No matter how awful my mood was, as soon as I saw my daughter’s adorable face, all the awfulness instantly diminished considerably.“Daddy, did you not listen to the doctor? Did you secretly leave the hospital?” Flora looked with her big eyes. Her tiny face revealed a sensible manner that was incongruous with her young age.My eyes darted around. I didn’t want my daughter to worry and feel disappointed. “Er… No.”“Dad is ly
Anya’s POV:Around the evening, my phone rang.Beep! Beep! Beep!I looked at it and saw that it was called from Evan.“Kester, I have to take this call.”“Go ahead.”“Hello?” I walked to the bathroom and answered the call.Evan’s sullen voice comes out of the other end of the line. “Anya, where are you now?”I frowned and asked in a low voice. “What's the matter? Is there something urgent?”Evan said, “I want to see you.”“I am not free now. Let’s do it another day.”“No! Come at once. If you don’t, I will make you regret it.”Other than threatening me, Evan had no better way to get me to come to see him.“Evan, can you stop acting like this? If you continue to act like this, we can’t even remain friends anymore.”With that, I ended up the call.I couldn’t tolerate his foul habit of coercing me every time.I had already decided to marry Kester. No matter how difficult the road ahead was, I was duty-bound not to turn back.Evan’s POV:“Clatter!”After Anya ended the phone call, I slamm
Kester’s POV:I might be a playboy, but I was not a ruthless, cold-hearted man.Although I had no love for Ellen, I had been with her for so long after all. I couldn’t possibly give her a single cent.“I will give you ten million as a compensation. Go and abort the child immediately.”She was stunned and cried even harder, “Mr. Helsen, I don’t want money. Can you let me give birth to the child? I swear, I won’t disturb your marriage.”“Don’t say anymore. I’ll take you to the hospital now and get rid of the child. Ellen, you’re still very young. Then there are still many opportunities to meet better men. Don’t let a child ruin your whole life.” I rejected Ellen’s request firmly.“Alright, since you don’t want this child, I will abort it. Transfer the money!”I frowned deeply. “No, I want to go to the hospital with you.”“What if I abort the child and you don’t give me the money?”“Am I that kind of person? Don’t worry. The moment you get on the gynecological chair, I will transfer the
Kester’s POV:I had to settle the matter with Ellen as soon as possible. It had not been easy for me and Anya to get to where we are today. I couldn’t afford to let anything go wrong again.The next day, Ellen arrived at my home early in the morning.In the past, she often comes here to spend the night. So, she was very familiar with this place.I had just woken up when the servant, Zena, came in to report to me. “Mr. Helsen, Miss Ellen is here.”Hearing that I couldn’t help but frown. I had told her yesterday I would meet up with her, but I didn’t ask her to come to my house.To my dismay, she comes to my house.“Take her to the living room.”“Sure.”I hurriedly put on my clothes and went downstairs.In the living room, Ellen was still dressed provocatively and looked alluring as usual.She was wearing a spaghetti-strap dress and high heels. She h
