He suddenly started his car again, made a huge drift. He turned around and drove to the dock.

When Carson’s car stopped at the dock, he instantly opened the door and got out.

Deep down in his heart, he wanted to look for her, but there was only a dim light left above the dock, a truck that had its shutters left open, and a ship swaying gently in the wind and waves.

He stood there like a lonely island. He did not know why he suddenly felt scared.

He had not been here since that day. On that day, he found that something seemed to have changed in his heart and something was about to break out. He had not dared to face it.

He thought for a long time. He decided to come to see her today, but he did not see her. Where had she gone?

Would she disappear from his world again? Just like she did the last time?

"Everly!"

He called her name, but the only response he got was his own echoes over and over again.

There seemed to be no one here.

His lips were pursed into a straight line, and t

    It was until Everly choked and coughed out a mouthful of water.She looked at him in a daze and then proceeded to faint."Don't sleep now. I'll take you to the hospital."He picked her up and returned to his car. He turned the heat up to the maximum and took off her wet coat. He then started the car and rushed to the nearest hospital.Carson drove his car at its highest speed. The roars of the car engine could be heard on the road, and everything around it turned into drags of light and shadow as it zoomed past the place.He looked at her lying motionlessly on the passenger seat. His grip on the steering wheel increasingly tightened. No one noticed that a woman walked out of the dark corners of the dock after Carson left.The woman was wearing high heels and an exquisite fur coat. She stared at the shadows of Carson's car that was driving far away, and her delicate eyes were full of malice."Miss Lisa, it's not my fault. After sending everyone away, I set that woman up on the

    The Butler immediately rang the bell. When he helped Carson to the other side of the room, he found that Carson's clothes were still damp!In the past week, Carson had been like a working machine, overworking himself to the point of breaking every day. He jumped into the water on such a cold day. Several hours had passed since he saved Miss Everly. Carson had been waiting for Everly in his wet clothes on such a cold day!He had not collapsed until he was sure that Everly was fine and the arrangements for her follow-up were made and completed!"Sir..."The butler looked at Carson, whose face was flushed from the fever that he was in, and then looked at the woman lying unconscious on the hospital bed. He sighed helplessly.…When Everly finally woke up, the white ceiling came into view. The evening light shone through the curtains. The whole room was dyed an orange tint, making it hard to tell whether the scene before her was the reality or just a dream.Was she not drowning previ

    It was quiet in the room. The maid looked at her and cautiously said, "Miss Everly, would you like to go to see Sir?"Everly had not answered. She just sat there unmoving, like a sculpture."Miss Everly?"The maid's voice came again."You go out first." Everly finally said in a hoarse voice.The maid wanted to say something, but she saw how indifferent Everly was acting. She nodded and said, "I'm just outside. Miss Everly, just call me if you need anything."After the maid left, Everly was the only person left in the room.She looked down at her tightly clenched fists and slowly loosened them. Blood seeped through her fingers and continuously dripped down the sheets.The wound on her palm caused by the rope was already scabbed, but now the scabs cracked again and blood was flowing out of them.She looked at them and recalled the scene when she fell into the river again and again.It was not an illusion.He saved her…Her hands trembled slightly, and a tear fell on her palm.

    "Ding dong! Ding dong!"Everly looked over subconsciously when the doorbell rang. The maid had already gone to open the door to greet the guests. Footsteps and laughing voices were heard in the next moment. "Oh my, Oliver looks much better now! How terrific!""That's right, it's been such a long treatment, and Oliver's body is slowly getting better. The doctor said to keep this up, and he will be no different from an ordinary child when he gets older.""Oliver is great!""Sigh… Oliver should have continued staying there for his treatment on such a chilly day outside. However, I heard that Carson was very sick, so I asked the doctor and brought Oliver here.""Come on in quickly! It's warm inside, don't want Oliver to catch a cold!"The door opened again. Everly watched as the servant brought in a child who was fully wrapped with thick clothing. Such a little human, he seemed to be only about three years old, looking amusingly spherical with so many layers of warm clothes on him.

    The boy seemed to be living in his own world. He had not looked at anyone and just stood there obediently with a calm face.Everly looked at the child, her eyes were extremely red. Her hand that was clenching the clothes on her stomach shook violently.She had never allowed anyone to see her belly because there was a long, hideous scar on it…She once had a child.A child with Carson.If that child were still alive, he would be three years old now."Oliver, how old are you this year?" Lisa asked softly as she patted the child's little hand."Four years old," the child answered calmly."Good boy," Lisa said, and her smile grew even wider. She looked at Everly and continued asking the child, "Oliver, who is Carson Baxter?""Daddy," the child answered calmly."Crack!"As if something had just broken. It seemed that Everly's heart was torn in half in an instant. The pain was so severe that she involuntarily took a half step back. A tear dripped down and landed on the back of her

    On her first day in prison, Everly already knew that she was pregnant. It was Carson’s child. She thought he would come and get her out. Even if it were for the sake of the child, she would then have a chance to find evidence to clear her name.However, what came was a group of vicious women…"Now that you are pregnant, you thought Mr. Baxter would come and take you back? How naive! He knew about your pregnancy, yet he still left you here!""Mr. Baxter said only Miss Layla was worthy of giving him a baby. The one in your belly is a wild breed! He will never acknowledge it!"They punched and kicked her. Everly kept yelling out Carson’s name. The more she yelled, the harder they beat her."Stop screaming, fool! Are you still waiting for him to pick you up? Don't even think about it. You killed his beloved woman. How could he forgive you?!""Just rot in here with us!

    The snow continued to fall. The door of Carson's room in the Baxter Residence was pushed open, and in came Lisa and Oliver.Carson had already sat up against the bed."Brother Carson, I brought Oliver to see you," Lisa said with a smile. "Oliver, go see your father," she uttered to Oliver as she patted his shoulder.Oliver walked towards the bed with small steps and looked up at Carson."Daddy!" Oliver shouted in an excited voice, finally showing some child-like traits.It was a rare sight for Carson to show gentleness in his eyes. He reached out and touched Oliver's head and then carried him to his bed. "Is it cold?" Carson asked Oliver as he held his hand. Oliver shook his head. "It's not cold," he replied.Carson picked up a toy from the bedside table next to him and handed it to Oliver. He took the toy but did not play with it. He raised his head and stared at Carson with his dark eyes, "Dad!" he called out to him."Mmm," Carson responded.Oliver opened up his hands. "H

    Lisa ran up to Carson in tears and said, "Carson, my family would want to desecrate Everly's corpse even if she is dead! She is still alive and ran away by faking death in less than a year! She is out there running wild and free! Not only are my parents filled with hatred towards her, so am I!""Back then, I was the one who talked them out of taking revenge out of respect for you because you promised me that you would make it right by my family. Now, look at what is happening! Carson, are you really going to punish her? It seems to me that you are trying to protect her! Are you thinking of my sister and Oliver?"Lisa's cries and confrontation echoed through the room. Carson lifted his gaze slightly to look at her."Carson, I need an answer today as to how you plan on punishing Everly!" Lisa uttered viciously in tears, "Stop beating around the bush. I want you to do it now!"Carson scrawled and was about to say something when suddenly...Knock, knock, knock!Someone was knocking o

    Everly wondered, 'Why does he look so pitiful? Is he going to ask me to be with me as he did before?'Meanwhile, Carson moved his eyes from her to the sunset on the horizon and said, "It's late."She looked across at the sea and the sky. The glorious declining sun gilded the sky.The salty sea wind swept over them.They gazed at the sunset until the fish suddenly struggled and startled Everly.It had been quietly staying in her hand for a while. She had forgotten that she was holding the fish. Thus, she subconsciously let go of the fish and shook Carson's hands off.The fish flopped back into the water and waved its tail to flee away."Oh, no. The fish has escaped. Dad, hurry up and catch it!" Oliver yelled. He had been squatting on the side so as not to disturb his parents. Carson and Oliver then chased after the fish.Everly slowly got up and stood there. The father and the son in white T-shirts were surrounding the big puddle. Everly felt strange while watching them.She wa

    She was a little embarrassed. After all, they hadn't been so close to each other for a long time. She felt a bit uncomfortable.So, she found a random topic. "Oliver still hasn't come back?""Maybe he couldn't find the bucket," he said, his chest vibrating. Not knowing how to pick up the conversation, she just looked at him. "Put the fish down," he said again after about three seconds. "But it will slip away," she blurted out. He paused, nodded, and hummed.Actually, she could place it somewhere dry rather than in the water... Then it couldn't slip away...She found herself so stupid. But she couldn't take back her words...She wondered, bit the bullet, and awkwardly held the fish. Should she say anything to defuse the awkward situation?She thought for a moment and asked, "What's your plan? I mean your career.""I haven't laid it out yet," he replied frankly. "I've been working for too long, and it's time to take a break. In the past, I didn't have time to hang

    Everly immediately put the crab into the small bucket.At this time, the bucket was filled with many crabs. Oliver looked inside and wore a bright smile."Wow! We got a lot of crabs today! My bucket is almost full!" Oliver said and looked back. When he saw the bucket in his dad's hand, Oliver took it and dumped all the crabs inside his own bucket into it. He then pushed it to Everly and said, "Wow. Aunt Violet caught so many crabs today. You are awesome!"Everly froze. She looked at Oliver's smiling face and understood what he meant.Oliver wanted her to take all the credit for catching those crabs."Oliver...""Aunt Violet! Look over there. There are bubbles coming out of that small hole. Let's go over there. There must be something in there!" As he said, Oliver carried his bucket and a small shovel and trotted over in his slippers. He ran to the hole and exclaimed, "Aunt Violet, come on! It is a big fish!""Go ahead. He likes playing with you," Carson said to Everly when she w

    "How do you know if they have contact in private?" The man asked as their car was waiting for a green light. The man's consecutive retorts annoyed Lisa. She looked in the rearview mirror at the man with chill eyes. "What do you mean? Are you trying to deliberately piss me off?" "No." The man replied. Then he paused for a few seconds and changed the subject. "So what are you going to do next?" 'Let Everly crash down to the hell!' During these days all their tactics were covert. They only took some subtle moves to test Carson, to see what was in Carson's mind. Now that Lisa had learned about it, then the next step she was up to was to put Everly through hell! "What's going on with Violet's studio now?" Lisa asked. "According to the information we got, it won't be long before Violet Studio and Baxter Group's collaboration on 'The Angel' is finished." The man replied. Before Lisa was about to respond, suddenly, her phone vibrated. Buzz--Lisa picked up her phone to check t

    Everly, Carson, and Oliver were playing on the beach. Meanwhile, Lisa came out of her villa to a car and talked to someone on the phone.She got into the passenger seat, smiled at the man in the driver's seat, and said, "I've just heard that the opposition faction of the Baxter Group changed their minds. They want to get Carson back."The man started the car without speaking. Lisa made up her face, smiled contentedly while looking into the mirror at her delicate figures, and continued, "I knew that the Baxter Group couldn't do well without Carson and that they would give in!"The car's tires squealed.The man suddenly braked."What are you doing?" Lisa growled at the man with a frown, hurriedly grabbing something to steady herself."Lisa, what the hell do you want?" the man said resignedly, "didn't you say that you just wanted to help your family out of trouble? I don't understand what you're thinking. Do you love Carson? Are you proud of him?""What's the problem with this?"

    While waving at her, Oliver murmured and walked in with Carson.Everly nodded with a smile. With the clothes in her hand, she got into the car and changed her clothes.The clothes were very simple, which were just a big white T-shirt and a pair of casual shorts. Looking at the clothes, she couldn't help wondering what Carson and Oliver would wear.She walked out, with her mind wandering. She saw Carson and Oliver not far away, both of whom were wearing a white vest and a pair of shorts to their knees. The color and style of their clothes were the same, except for the size.They two seemed to be talking about something, with buckets in their hands. Carson held a big bucket while Oliver held a small one. There was another bucket on the ground, obviously prepared for Everly.Noticing her coming, Oliver turned around and looked at her. "Aunt Violet!"Carson also looked up at her.Her heart was thumping faster inexplicably.‘He seems to be closer to me these days.’Maybe it was bec

    The shopkeeper felt embarrassed. He looked at Oliver and replied, "What? I couldn’t do that. Don’t talk nonsense."Oliver pouted and didn’t say anything. Carson patted his head and then looked at the shopkeeper.The shopkeeper already understood his meaning. So then he handed three sets of clothes to Everly and Carson, "You can rinse over there.""Thank you." Everly nodded, then they went there together.After lifting the curtain of the outdoor shower, Carson and Oliver both frowned slightly and looked at her at the same time.Everly was a little confused, so she asked, "What’s wrong?""You can change the clothes in the car." Carson opened his mouth.Oliver nodded and explained, "Right, Aunt Violet. This place has some leaks. It’s okay for me and dad, but it's not okay for you, and there’s no mud on you. It's just me falling into the mud puddle."Everly looked at him and then at Oliver, understanding what they meant.She nodded and pinched Oliver's face with a smile, "Okay,

    She immediately quickened her pace to rush over and snatched Oliver from Carson's hand."Hmm..."Before Oliver jumped into her arms and complained to her, Carson's cold voice sounded, "Stop. You're covered in mud."Oliver stopped immediately, looking down at himself, then he glared at Carson. Just a few seconds later, he sat down on a small rock and pointed to the big mud puddle beside him. "Aunt Violet, I just fell into it."Everly glanced in the direction that Oliver pointed to. There was indeed a mud puddle and a human shape was still there. Oliver's father just wiped his face. Otherwise, he could not be recognized.Looking at him sitting on that small rock and his aggrieved look, Everly thought he was so cute and couldn’t help laughing out loud, "Puff..."Hearing her laugh, Oliver turned his head. Everly immediately tried to hold back her laughter, but she failed."Ah! Aunt Violet, you laughed!” Oliver directly came down from the rock, sat in the mud, and childishly showed

    Yet the meeting room was quiet. No one spoke.If there had been a way to settle the matter, they would have dealt with it many days ago.And if they gave advice but failed in the end, they might have to take the blame."Why do you all keep silent? Didn't you have a lot of ideas at the very beginning?" the leader roared, slapping the table.However, no one answered.After a minute, someone trembled and said, "Then ... shall we find Carson and make him the president again?""What are you talking about?" The leader was even angrier.But another person said, "I think he's right. The share price is falling. We have less and less money. If it goes on like this, none of us can stand it. We'd better get Carson back... When he managed the company, the share price was rising.""You're looking down on yourself and flattering Carson!" the leader growled, "and the share price is falling.
