Anya’s POV:It was already 10:00 a.m.I was still by Jerry's side, looking after him.I had also been running around the entire day and was extremely nervous.Seeing that Jerry has recovered. I couldn’t help but lie on the bed and fall asleep.In a daze, I felt someone putting a piece of clothing on my shoulder.I was shocked and quickly opened my eyes.I turned around and saw Evan.At this moment, he was holding a suit and putting it on me.I suddenly set up straight. “Evan, why are you back again?”He chuckled. “You still owe me a bowl of noodles. So why can’t I be back?”I frowned in frustration. “This is a hospital. I can’t make noodles for you.”“When are you going to make it for me?”“When my son recovers. I will make it for you when I have time.”He chuckled. “Alright, I’ll wait for you!”“There is nothing here. You can go back now”Hearing that, he raised his eyebrows and smiled. “No, I want to accompany you here!”“No, I don’t need your company. Its already so late. Hurry up
Anya’s POV:“Jerry cant be left alone look after him.”Emily nodded solemnly. “Miss Walter, don’t worry. I will take good care of him!”“Then, I will take my leave first!”“Goodbye, Miss Walter!”I didn’t say anything else, took my bag, and left in a hurry.Evan also followed behind me.Arriving at the parking lot, I reached for the key in my pocket, only to realize that my car was still in the studio.Evan was the one who sent me and Jerry to the hospital.I frowned and resentfully put the car keys back into my bag.I was about to hail a taxi when a car stopped beside me.“Get in!”Evan rolled down the window and looked at me casually.I was stunned.Even though I didn’t want to get into his car, I knew that he could go crazy again if I rejected him.Helpless, I obediently got into the first passenger seat.However, I didn’t say a word and remained cold and indifferent along the way.From time to time, I could feel Evan's gaze looking at me.The entire journey was silent.About twent
Evan’s POV:I smiled and didn’t want to bother with this little guy anymore.“Don’t think that you can treat me lightly because I’m young. I grow up very quickly.” He said.Hearing that the smile on my face deepened. I looked at the little guy with interest and felt strange.This little fellow was filled with hostility towards me. However, I felt that he was inexplicably adorable. Even though I was threatened, I didn’t feel angry at all.“I’m talking to you. Do you hear me?”I snorted and asked, “Are you really Kester’s son?”“Hmph!” He arrogantly tilted his head to the side. “Why should I tell you?”“Because you don’t look like your father at all.”Hearing that he became a little angry and said, “Mr. Helsen is not my father, and I’m not his son.”Hearing his words, my heart sank, and I subconsciously put my legs down.“Then, where is your father?”“Why must I tell you?”Hearing his words, I got choked.This little guy had the same temper as Anya and didn’t take me seriously.However,
Anya’s POV:The two started scolding each other in the dining room.I listened to it from the kitchen and frowned.‘They were indeed father and son. Their scolding tone sounded the same too.’“In the end, I couldn’t stand it anymore and walked out of the kitchen with a dark expression.“Jason, who taught you to be so rude? Who said you could talk to others like this?”“Mommy…” After being reprimanded, he lowered his head.Evan seemed to be very angry. His face had transferred into an intense shade of anger.A child called him with an air of authority. His words pierced through Evan’s pride. Most importantly, he lost.”“Evan, I’m impressed. You can even agree with the child.”“I…”He looked at me with his eyes widened. His anger was so overwhelming that it made him speechless.“The noodles are ready.”“I’m not going to eat anymore. I’m full of anger.”“Forget it then.”My patience had worn thin. My desire to coax him dissipated like a wisp of smoke. I quickly placed the cooked dumpling
Paul’s POV:After Tina drunk, she called me to pick her up from the bar.I brought her back to my home. My eyes were filled with heartache, and I could not wait to hug her.“Tina, why are you so drunk?”She stank of alcohol and said dejectedly, “I wanted to drink so I drank.”“But you can’t drunk so much!”She smiled foolishly and hooked his arm around his neck. “Paul, tell me, Am I annoying?”“No, you are not. Why do you ask?”“Then, why doesn’t, he love me?”I was stunned and quickly knew who she was referring to. “Tina, you are drunk!”“I’m not drunk. Paul, if you only Evan love me as much as you do…”Hearing that I felt even more sorrowful.Even though the two of us dating had four years, I still couldn’t appear as her boyfriend.“Tina, you are drunk and spouting nonsense!”“I’m not drunk. Why doesn’t he love me?”I looked at her angrily. “He doesn’t love you, but I do. Marry me.”Hearing that she smiled coldly. “Marry you? Haha, can you afford to support me? You don’t even have a
Author’s POV:Thinking that it was Paul, she pushed the man away in a daze. “No, I am sleepy.”“The chink is waking up!”Lucas whispered, “Get me an eye mask!”Then, he unbuttoned his pants and lay on top of her.Tina was sleeping soundly when she suddenly felt a weight on her body.She muttered impatiently, “Argh, I already said no. Stop touching me. It hurts!”When Lucas heard this he became even more excited.The other four men also grew excited and could not help but touch her.It was unusual to see such a stunning woman in the slums. However, to the local tyrants, this was a common occurrence.None of the girls dared to call the police, let alone resist. Therefore, these people were getting more and more arrogant.However, they did not know Tina’s identity. They only thought that she was a hostess from the city. After all, she came to the slums to sleep with a poor guy like Paul. Who would have thought that she was a wealthy young lady?Tina’s POV:In a daze, I felt that somethin
Evan's Pov:“Mr. Carter answered me! Didn’t Tina look for you yesterday? I called her and asked. She said that she is with you. So, I am relieved. Otherwise, I will make her go home early. How did this happen?”Mia cried until she was out of breath.I lowered my head in frustration and didn’t say a word.Coral quickly comforted Mia and handed her a few tissues. “Mrs. Walter, don’t be sad.”Mia took the tissue and wiped her snot. She cried her heart out.“How could I not be sad when something like this happened to my daughter? Fate is too cruel. Why is fate so cruel to Tina? What sins have our family committed to deserve this? Unlucky things happen to one after another!”“This is a hospital. Please keep your voice down. There are patients undergoing surgery!” The head nurse came over and said.Hearing this, Mia went from wailing to crying in a low voice.Almost 40 minutes later, the door of the ward opened the doctor and nurses walked out one after another.“Doctor, how is the patient?
Anya’s POV:As soon as I came out of Dad’s ward, tears flowed down my cheeks.I didn’t want this to happen to Tina either, but I could not understand why I was being blamed.‘Forget it. Think whatever they want.’I was disappointed and tired. I had a clear conscience and would not apologize to anyone.I returned to Jerry’s ward, regained my composure, and began to organize our things.I didn’t want to see this group of people again. I would feel crushed just being near them.So, I decide to transfer Jerry to another hospital.Jerry was still running a high fever, and his face was red.“Mommy…”“Baby, you are awake! Are you still feeling unwell?” I come to the head of the bed and gently touch his head.“Mommy, don’t worry. I am much better now.”Hearing that I felt a little choked up. I helped him change into clothes. “Be good. Jerry, let’s go. We’re leaving.”“Mommy, didn’t the doctor tell me to stay for few more days? I still feel a little unwell. I don’t want to go to school.” He po
Anya’s POV:My heart sank when I overheard the two men gossiping away.“Excuse me, sir, may I borrow your cell phone?”The two vagrants looked at me casually while looking at the phone, “No way! My phone is running out of battery. I have to charge it at the convenience store soon. Moreover, what kind of person doesn’t have a phone nowadays? Why did you ask to borrow mine?”I feared Evan would trace my cell phone location. Therefore, I left it behind.I would have the register with my real ID if I were to apply for a new SIM card.“Sir, I will buy you a cell phone instead.” I took a wallet from my canvas bag and retrieved $200.“I pay for your phone. You can use the money to buy new one.” I said and handed the money to the homeless man.Homeless man’s POV:I looked surprised and became speechless. I looked at the woman skeptically.It was strange that she offered $200 to buy this old phone. She could have bought a brand new one with that amount. I was puzzled.Moreover, someone who cas
Anya’s POV:I became even more aimless after leaving X City West.The weather changed gradually, and dark clouds gathered. The wind blew strongly, cleaning the streets of pedestrians.The storm was apparently about to descend.I felt the chill and tightened my jacket.I had to find another place to stay quickly.Although I had money, I would have to register with my identity card to stay in a better hotel. The same regulation applies in ordinary home stays.It was challenging to find another homestay without an identity card.I subconsciously stopped in my tracks when an overpass passed me.Many unemployed people and vagrants gathered under the overpass. Land in the X city was scarce, and every inch was worth its weight in gold. Many could not afford the tiniest house and resorted to living under the overpass.I looked around.Many homeless people had set up mosquito nets to make independent tents. I would probably have to do the same under the overpass if I did not want to register w
Evan’s POV:Half an hour later, I arrived at the Home stay in the suburbs.I was with an entourage of bodyguards and servants.“Where is she?” I asked anxiously.The Lady boss of the homestead was shocked to see many burly men in suits appearing at her door. She stammered, “She has already left. Look, is this her?”She quickly pulled out the surveillance footage.The public living room was occupied with surveillance.I took a look and became excited. “Yes, yes, that’s her!”In this surveillance video, Anya held a bowl of medicine and was about to drink it.At the same time, my heart sank. “What was she drinking? What was it?”“Oh, she said she had a cold, and it’s cold medicine. “The Lady boss replied.“She left this behind.” The Lady boss quickly brought over Anya’s medicine.“Mark, go and check immediately. What’s in this medicine?” I instructed.Mark looked closer and replied worriedly, “Mr. Carter, the formula is abortion medicine.”Boom!I staggered and almost lost my balance. My
Lady Boss’ POV:I scoffed before changing the channel with a remote control.Unexpectedly, Evan Carter also had a press conference on another channel.I switched a few channels consecutively, all of which were news about Evan Carter looking for Anya Walter.Evan booked the prime time advertising for several TV stations for this purpose.“If any of you know the whereabouts of Anya Walter, please inform me. You will be rewarded handsomely.” Evan promised.“Oh my! Evan Carter is lofty indeed to look for a missing wife on Prime TV. A rich man always gets his way with money.” I looked at the young woman subconsciously as I commented sarcastically.Only then did I realize something unusual with the young woman before me.She wore a cap and sunglasses in an ordinary outfit.However, her temperament was different from the home stays other guests. She had exquisite facial features, and her skin was delicate and translucent.To be honest, she looked a lot like Anya Walter.My heart skipped a be
Anya’s POV:I returned to the small clinic to get the medicine at the agreed time.“Doctor, is the medicine ready?” I asked.The doctor nodded repeatedly, “Yes, yes, it is ready for collection.”“I concocted some medicine that’s less harmful to the body and has milder medical effects.”The doctor was alone in the small clinic. There were no nurses. He handed the medicine to me.I looked and saw a dozen black-brown medicinal bags in the plastic carrier. “How do you take it?”“It’s a traditional medicine ready for consumption. Take a packet every morning, noon, and night for three consecutive days. The fetus will turn into blood and discharge through your vagina.” The doctor instructed carefully.My brows knotted, and I vaguely felt my abdomen twitch, as if the fetus inside me sensed danger and protested silently.“Okay, how much is it?”“400 dollars.”I frowned again. Then I took out $400 from my wallet.The fee was indeed a little expensive.A reputable hospital would have cost less t
Author’s POV:Soon, the news of Anya Walter’s disappearance had spread like a wildfire.The media found out about Anya Walter’s disappearance through the mysterious informant.By the end of the day, the news has already been released online.“Evan Carter left dejected as his pregnant ex-wife escapes.”“You run, I chase… You can’t escape even if you have wings! Anya Walter deliberately disappears.”Evan Carter’s relationship with his ex-wife crumbles completely. Anya Walter was possibly abandoned.”As soon as the news was released, the Internet exploded again, and the entire city joined in to watch the show.“What’s going on between Mr. Carter and his ex-wife? Why is there so much news every other day? I hear so much about their melodramatic lives that I am tired of watching them.”“That’s right! We can’t have a moment o
Anya’s POV:I thought it over seriously for a night and decided to abort the child with pills.The hospital was not an option for me right now. Besides, there were laws against abortion.Soon, I put on a disguise and made my way to a private clinic.“Hello, what can I help you with?”“Do you have an abortion pill?”“No, no.” The doctor refused, repeatedly, sizing me up suspiciously.“Please help me, doctor! I need the abortion medicine. How much is it? Just tell me. I know you must have it here.” I took out $200 from my pocket.The small clinics certainly had abortion drugs and private abortion services.However, to avoid being investigated by the police, they never sold them openly.“Uh… You have to think about it carefully. Do you want the abortion medicine?”“Yes, please help me!” I was wearing a cap, a large mask, and s
Evan’s POV:My chest heaved violently as I digested Kester’s words. My face twisted in a murderous rage.Judging from Kester’s tone, he was probably telling the truth. Anya had not come to look for him. This made me even more worried.If she encountered bad people, the consequences would be more unimaginable.Soon, night fell.I returned home and rushed to the second floor.After looking at the safe, I was even more anxious.“Mr. Carter, we still haven’t found her…”The bodyguards had searched for an entire day, but they still couldn’t find Anya.They had no choice but to return and report their failure to me. “Mr. Carter, the bodyguard team faces constrains in our abilities. Perhaps, we should call the police instead.”When I heard this, the corner of my lips twitched. “Call the police? Is there something wrong with your worthless brains?”
Evan’s POV:Soon, all the nurses and bodyguards of the Carter family had joined to search for Anya.“Anya… Anya…” My eyes were bloodshot as I punched the bed frame.I knew Anya had not forgiven me.No wonder she had been behaving like a docile lamb. As it turned out, she had been planning her great escape the whole time.She deliberately pretended to reconcile with me, so I would let my guard down.No wonder she acted as though she had forgotten about the past. She was already making plans to flee.“I will give you two hours to find Anya. If you can’t find her, you'll get lost.”“Got it. Mr Carter!”Gael was calling again.I answered the call, feeling slightly frustrated, “What is it?”“Mr. Carter, bad news. I just checked the safe. Miss Anya’s document and passport are missing.”When I heard this. I felt wave
