Anya’s POV:The two of them were furious and looked like they were at the edge of fighting each other.Seeing this, my heart sank.“Stop arguing! Calm down. You both…”“Beep!”At this moment, Evan’s phone rang.Since I was standing close to him, I saw that it was a call from Butler, Josh.Josh has always been a stood guy and wouldn’t call him easily unless it was an emergency.Evan frowned and answered the call.The Butler’s urgent voice comes from the other end of the line. “Hello, Mr. Carter, your grandmother is in hospital. Please come over quickly!”“What happened to Grandma?”“She had a sudden cerebral infraction. Come as fast as you can!”“Okay, I will be right there!”After hanging up, Evan hurriedly left.After he left Kester sighed with relief. “Anya, are you alright?”“I’m fine.”“What exactly is Evan trying to do?”I sighed, not knowing what to say.“My head is mess right now. I want to be alone for a while!”“Alright, go back to your room and have a rest!”“Kester, you can
Evan’s POV:After Grandma woke up I accompanied her in the ward.Around ten o’clock, the door of the ward pushed open. I looked in the direction of the door and saw Tina and Mia walking in.“Evan, how is Mrs. Carter?”Seeing these two coming just like that, I frowned. “Why are you here?”Mia walked towards the bed and placed the food basket by the head of the bed. “I just called the Butler and he said that Mrs. Carter is sick, which really scared our entire family! After we heard the news, we immediately come here in a hurry!”“Mrs. Carter how are you?”Mia greeted Grandma with concern and acted like she was her in-law without even an ounce of awkwardness even though I had just run away from the engagement banquet.However, as long as we didn’t announce the annulment of the engagement in public, in the eyes of the outsider we are already engaged.“Grandma had just woken up, and she can’t be agitated. You two should leave now!”“Oh, then, Mrs. Carter have a good rest and get well soon!
Anya’s POV:“Anya, what’s the matter?” he asked.“Speak!” His voice comes from the other end of the line.I pondered briefly and said, “Um, I have already asked Jason and Jerry about the shooting. Jason is unwilling to go, but Jerry is willing to go!”“Oh, that’s great!” Kester said.I still asked for worriedly. “I want to ask again. The shooting won’t take too long, right? Don’t let it interfere with his studies.”“It won’t,” he said. “One day is enough!”“Alright, then!” I replied, “When will be the shoot?”“Next Saturday!” he answered.“Alright”“I will drive to pick him up next Sunday then.” He said, with a smile.“Okay! If there is nothing else, I will hung up first.” I said.“Okay!” Kester said.Usually, I hang up, but today is the first time I didn’t hang up the phone.Then, their flirting and bantering voice came from the other end of the line.Hearing that, I suddenly felt an indescribable emotion.I know there were always women around him, and he was a playboy.Therefore, no
Tina’s POV:After being kept pestering by him frantically, I became worried.“It doesn’t matter if he loves me or not. I love him and that’s enough. Paul if you really love me, stop harassing me! You can’t give me what I want!” I said.He seemed to be in a state of deep despair as he begged me with dissatisfaction. “Tina marriage is a lifetime of happiness. Don’t joke about your own happiness.”However, without waiting for him to finish talking, I interrupted me impatiently. “My happiness is marrying Evan. And I love him too. I’m just fooling around with you. How dare you push your luck and want me to marry you!”“I…”“Don’t call me again if you dare to rule my happiness. I won't forgive you for the rest of your lifeAs soon as I finished speaking, I ended the call.After the call, I felt distressed and decided to go out for a while. However, as soon as I opened the door, I saw my mother eavesdropping outside my room.Seeing this, I became even more angry.“Mom, why are you standing o
After being hospitalized for more than a week, Grandma’s condition had stabilized.And today she is going to be discharged from the hospital.“Grandma, be careful!” I said.Even though there were four healthcare workers and two family doctors taking care of Grandma, I didn’t feel at ease. So, I helped her onto the wheelchair.Because of the stroke, Grandma’s speech was a little slurred. “It’s okay. Don’t be nervous!” she said.“I will send you home, Grandma!”“All right,” she replied. “Evan you have been in the hospital for so many days. Work is more important. You should go to the office tomorrow.” She added.“Grandma, I will take care of you for a few more days. Nothing is more important than your health. I will go to the office after you recover completely!” I said.Shaking her head, she said, “I am fine. There are so many people looking after me. You can’t neglect the work in the office!”“Alright then,” I said, “I’ll go to the office tomorrow.”Grandma paused and sighed. Then she
Anya’s POV:“The Beta Group and the Wind Group approached us,” I said, “I can’t just push away business that comes looking to our door, can I?”His lips curled up into a sinister smile, as he looked at me with a gloomy expression.“What do you think you are doing now? Trying to undermine me and my business?”As he spoke, he menacingly walked a few steps closer to me. His tall and burly figure shrouded me in a shadow.Seeing this my heart skipped a beat and I involuntarily took two steps backward. “I don’t know that The Beta group and Wind group plan to sign contract with the Carter Group.” She said“Humph, you don’t know huh?” He said, laughing coldly.I took another step backward and said, “Alright, so if, what if I know? Partnerships means you can cooperate with wherever you want. You cant monopolize the market…”“Anya you have the guts!” He said. “You dumb woman. Do you know the consequences of your action? The consequences of your action will only disrupt the market! Other compani
Evan’s POV:After leaving the Walter Group, I got in the car, ready to go back to the Carter Group.In the car, I lit my cigarette, completely expressionless.To be honest, the losses of these two deals by the Carter Group were not a matter of concern.Instead, the fact that she had disrupted the market was a matter of concern.Once news of this matter spread, it was bound to trigger a bigger butterfly effect.Therefore, I decided to take action to stop it in time. I could not tolerate such a market-disrupting behavior.However, when I recall the scene earlier, I felt a little regretful.‘I should not have treated her so cruelly!’ I thought.Unfortunately, this damn woman also had a stubborn tamper. From beginning to end, she refused to give in.I would have been kinder to her if she begged me.“Mr. Carter, how do you plan to resolve the issue with the Beta Group and the Wind Group?”I thought for a moment and raised my eyebrows slightly. Then I sneered and said, “Since this Wind grou
Tina’s POV:After he left, I stomped my feet helplessly, as tears filled in my eyes.“Get in the car, Miss Walter!” The driver said.“I don’t need you to send me!” I shouted at the driver.After saying that, I ran out of the car park angrily.My heart is filled with disappointment and resentment. I didn’t expect him to ask the driver to send me back.I had waited for him the whole afternoon!I didn’t expect him to care so much about my feelings.Feeling angry, I call Paul again.Whenever I felt mistreated by Evan, I always wanted to call Paul to seek comfort from him.Paul was very excited when he received my call and immediately rode his motorcycle over to pick me up.Anya’s POV:At 10:00 p.m., I finished my work.It was already past ten in the evening, and most of the company’s employees had left, leaving only a few programmers working overtime on their coding.My eyes are getting sore. I turned off the computer and prepared to go home.After being tortured by Evan for nearly an hou
