Brother Trumpet’s POV:“We have to be prepared. It’s best if you find employees familiar with the E-commerce delivery procedure.”I could also tell that she was not familiar with the e-commerce industry. So, I gently reminded her.“Okay! Okay!”I smiled again and stood up. “That’s it then. See you next Saturday. However, it’s best if you can come to Green City a day in advance and familiarize yourself with the process.”She nodded, “Okay.”“Goodbye!” I extended my right hand politely.She shook my hand again. “Goodbye. I hope this will be a successful collaboration.”I didn’t see anything else and left the private room.We parted and went on our ways.When my secretary and assistant realized that I had signed a contract with Anya, they were all astonished.“Boss, you have not even gotten a clear understanding of the Walter Group, and you are already signing a contract with them.”“That’s right. Those who want to collaborate with us have been waiting for half a year. It may not be good
Evan’s POV:I let out a slight sigh and took the lunch box. I ate a few mouthfuls mindlessly.I had not eaten anything since yesterday and I was indeed hungry.I finally start eating.Suddenly I heard the sound of heels pacing along the corridor.Mia and Frank for rushing over.“We rushed over when we heard that something happened to Mrs Carter.”“How is Mrs. Carter? Is she awake?”Tina looked sad and worried. “Mom, Grandma is still in the ICU. She is not out of danger yet.”Upon hearing that, Mia released an exasperated sigh and muttered, “Goodness, what a disaster. The poor old man is so fragile, how can she handle all this stress? Now What? This is a major catastrophe! What on earth we should do? I have been saying all along, that Anya is walking curse. Anyone who gets entangled with her is bound to be unlucky.” She continued to complain.I was already overwhelmed with turmoil. Mia’s words only added fuel to my frustration, pushing me closer to my breaking point.“If there is nothi
Tina’s POV:At the staircase, when I heard Evan calling Anya, my face contorted with anger.Anya had nearly driven Grace to her grave, yet Evan not only harbored no anger towards her but also showed concern.I took a deep breath, my eyes widened and my fingers clenched into a tight fist.“Anya you damn bitch! You have really outdone yourself. You managed to make Evan forgive you! Evan, I will never let you be with Anya.” I thought to myself.Evan was still on the phone.I pretended everything was normal and quickly returned to the ward, obediently waiting outside.Evan’s POV:After wrapping up my call, I coincidentally found myself face-to-face with the doctor who had come to check up.“Hey, Doc, how is my grandma doing today?” I asked with concern.“The accumulation of brain fluid in her isn’t too serve. Judging by her progress, she would wake up with an week.” The doctor replied.A sense of relief washed over me. “Really? Please make sure to take good care of her, Doc!”“Don’t worry
Tina's POV:My heart pounded and with trembling hands, I instinctively yanked out the ventilator plug.Grace, deep and slumber, suddenly struggled to breathe and woke up in distress, her face contorted in pain.Startled by Grace's awakening, I panicked and accidentally knocked over a water glass on the table.She gasped for breaths, her struggle evident."Grace..." I was terrified momentarily frozen, unsure of what to do next.This was my first attempt to deliberate murder, and my nerves were on the edge.She weekly raised her hand, groping aimlessly in the air, only for it to fall back down heavily a minute later."Grace... Grace..." My fear escalated, causing a tingling sensation on my scalp as I called out in a panicked, frenzy.As a critically ill patient, Grace's life slipped away within three minutes, her breathing ceasing.Summoning my courage, I checked Grace's breathing and found none."Oh, Grace... Grace..." I finally grasped the gravity of the situation and cried out in sho
Anya’s POV:When I arrived, I saw Evan and Tina sobbing.Seeing them in tears, I couldn’t help but feel alarmed. “What’s going on?”When Evan laid an eye on me, his gaze turned wild like a furious beast. They were crimson and fierce as if he wanted to tear me apart right there and then.“My grandmother is dead. Are you satisfied now?”This news struck me like a thunderbolt! The flowers I had, slipped from my grasp and fell to the ground.Tina’s voice was choked as she scolded angrily, “It was you who killed her. It was because of you that she got so angry that she had to be hospitalized. Now that she has gone, how dare you show up? You murderer! Didn’t you kill her? Are you happy now?”“This… this can’t be!” I gasped in disbelief. Evan had informed me over the phone that Grace’s health had been gradually improving. How could suddenly pass away?“Evan, is that true?” I looked at Evan in disbelief.His expression changed, and he couldn’t help but clench his fists. “Fuck off! Fuck off! I
Evan’s POV:A week passed.Grandma’s funeral has been over.“Mr. Carter, are we still going to fight for the custody of the children?”“Of course, I will honor Grandma’s wishes and fight tooth and nail for custody of the children, no matter the cost!”The lawyer nodded, “Understood!”My face turned grim as I icily declared, “Listen carefully, I want full custody of the children. Not a single one will be left in her possession!”“Understood!”Before long, the day of the court hearing has arrived.I had enlisted a team of top-notch international lawyers.This time, I would show no mercy toward Anya.Children are Anya’s greatest love, and they mean everything to her!I intended to snatch all the children away from her, aiming to shatter Anya emotionally.On the day of the court hearing, I strode into the courtroom, dressed in a black suit and cold expression.Anya followed closely behind, her demeanor solemn.As expected, she lost the lawsuit, and it was a complete loss.I was granted fu
Anya’s POV:After hearing Mr. Bryce’s analysis, my vision darkened. I struggled to maintain my composure.“Miss Walter, peace be careful! Above all, take care of your well-being.”I took a moment to regain my composure as my eyes could not see things.This defeat was devastating to me.I remained immersed in profound sorrow. Not far away, a swarm of reporters had been waiting for me. When I emerged from the courthouse, they pounced on me like a hungry wolf.“Miss Walter! We heard that custody was awarded to Mr. Carter. Will you continue with the appeal?”“Miss Walter, if the appeal is denied, will you still fight for custody?”The reporters clamored, shoving their microphones toward me. Each one regarded me with their predatory eyes as if I were a succulent prey.“I beg you, please stop focusing on me and let me be.” I lost control in front of the cameras, completely breaking down emotionally.I couldn’t bear being exploited as a mere speculator by these reporters and I didn’t want to
Tina’s POV:Although Sharane Bay Villa was an upscale residence, it lacked the prestige of the mansion! Living here made me feel superior.He replied coldly, “The children will be living here in the future. It’s better if you stay away from them.”I forced a fake smile. “No need! I will live with the children to nurture our relationship. I like them, you know!”“There is no need for you to be bound with the children.” He said, coldly and left without looking back.After Evan left, my face fell, and I stomped my feet resentfully.Evan’s attitude toward me was growing colder by the day. I feared that I wouldn’t find much happiness in the future.Still, even if I wasn’t happy, being married to Evan was enough.Without delay, I ordered someone to help me pack my belongings. Moving to Sharane Bay Villa was not bad. There will be a still penalty for opportunities to deal with those kids in the future.I had just finished packing when my phone rang.It was Mom.“Hey, Tina!” Mom sounded excit
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
Author’s POV:The next day, servants and nurses finally woke up feeling exceptionally dizzy.Alan patted her head groggily and couldn’t help but complain, “Gosh, the wine was way too strong. Did everyone fall asleep?”The nurses and servants were responsible for Anya and usually took it in shifts at night. However, all four of them had fallen asleep last night.Alan subconsciously looked at the bed, only to find that Anya was already gone.Immediately, she panicked and shook her colleagues awake. “Where is Miss Anya?”“Oh my God! Madam is gone!”“Stop sleeping! Wake up! Something big has happened. Madam is missing.”The other three also got up in a daze.Looking at the empty bed, their heart skipped a beat. Instantly, they no longer felt sleepy.“What happened to Miss Anya?”“Miss Anya is missing! Hurry up and look for her!”
Anya’s POV:My face darkened. I subconsciously held my belly. A hint of hatred appeared in my eyes.“You should say that he is the lucky one!”“Yes, that’s right. You and Mr. Carter are the luckiest people on this earth!”I pursed my lips. I was not interested in feigning civility with these people.Without waiting for the birthday party to end, I said to Evan, “I am tired. I am going back to my room to rest!”“Alright, I will send you back to your room!”“There is no need. You can stay and entertain the guests. I will get servants to send me back to my room!”“That works too!”Then the servant pushed me away.I could only say that I was extremely disappointed in Evan. At the same time, I hated him for being violent and selfish.In the face of absolute power, I could not take revenge on him. But now I suddenly thought of a w
Anya’s POV:Because I had triplets, it was an especially difficult pregnancy for me. I almost lost my life twice.When I was seven months into the pregnancy, some complications happened and I had no choice but to undergo or C-section.When Evan heard this, a hint of heartache appeared on his face. He said gently, “I am sorry. I couldn’t take care of you and the children back then.”“I will make sure to support you for this pregnancy!”When I heard this, my pupils contracted, and I looked elsewhere.At that time, I felt too lonely, so I decided to give birth.Now I already have three children. I wouldn’t give him another child.If I were able to leave successfully, I would go to the hospital to get an abortion.Since Evan wanted this child so much, I would not let him have his way. I also wanted him to have a taste of heartache.“Mommy, is so great!”“That’s right! You must be filial to your mother when you grow up. Don’t make her angry, understand?”“Yes, we understand!”Evan immediat
Anya’s POV:Although the City hospital was good, the Avery Women’s Hospital is a high-end maternity and children's Care Hospital. It specializes in taking care of pregnant women and infants.All the rich wives and celebrities in X city like to give birth there.“Oh, okay. I listen to you.” I said perfunctorily.I would go along with whatever Evan said now. Evan could do whatever he wanted.I had already made up my mind that I would not give birth to this child.And I most certainly would not get together with Evan.I had already secretly called Michael in the meantime, and asked him to deal with the factory in M city.At the same time, I called Brother Trumpet and said that I wanted to quit the media group.Now, I would take advantage of the time to raise as much cash as I could. The more the better.When my calf was healed, I would find a suitable time to leave Evan.“Why aren't you saying anything? Why are you acting strangely recently?”“Not at all!”Evan’s POV:I frowned. I still
Mark’s POV:I bought a few security guards and went straight to Miss Linken’s office.With a dark expression, I told Miss Linken about Evan’s decision.When Miss Linken heard this, she thought she had heard wrongly and was shocked. “What? Mr. Carter froze my shares and dividends? What’s going on?”I pulled a long face and said sternly, “Miss Linken, you violated the company’s rules. The company is now conducting a full investigation.”When Miss Linken heard this, she was even more enraged. “Are you kidding me? I am a director of the company.”“Your shares had been acquired by the company. You are no longer a shareholder of the Carter Group.”Miss Linken’s POV:I was completely dumbfounded when I heard this.I felt like a lightning bolt out of the blue. I was thunderstruck. It took a long time before I returned to my senses for a long time.“Are you kidding me? I have worked for the Carter Group for more than 30 years. I have been conscientious and willing to do anything.”“You are wro
Evan’s POV:I had returned to the midst of Miss Linken’s speech.I had left my proposal on the conference table.When he returned to retrieve it, I heard Miss Linken’s sarcastic remarks.This time, I was completely furious.When Miss Linken saw me, she also looked embarrassed. “Mr. Carter, why are you back again?”My eyes darkened. I ignored Miss Linken and took out a proposal lying on the conference table, leaving.In the past, I had always been polite to her because she was the older and senior member of the company. However, some people took advantage of their seniority and gossiped about me behind my back.More importantly, Miss Linken dared to criticize Anya.Miss Linken’s POV:After Evan left, Mr. Smith was somber, “I told you not to say much, but you don’t listen. Now you are in trouble.”My nostrils flared, and I adjusted my glasses. A trace of disdain appeared on my well-mannered face. “I am telling the truth. Anya might not be pregnant with Mr. Carter’s child. She is allowed
Jenny’s POV:Evan waved his hand to stop his bodyguard from approaching.“What do you want? I will give you five minutes. Tell me now.”My eyes turned red as tears flowed uncontrollably, “Evan, I will ask even one last time. Are you not going to give me a chance?”Evan frowned, “Jenny, I have told you many times that we are not compatible. Even if you ask me a hundred times, I will give the same answer!”“Evan, I don’t understand what is so good about Anya? A bitch like her has cheated on you so many times. Don’t you mind at all? Don’t feel disgusted. I look down upon you. I truly despise you…”Before I could finish, Evan’s expression suddenly changed. He said coldly, “Miss Garcia, this is my last warning. You can scold me however you want, but if you dare to slander Anya again, I won’t be courteous to you anymore.”I was so angry that my heart was about to explode. “Evan, did I say something wrong? You didn’t mind at all about Kester and her? You don’t mind that she is fooling around
Jenny’s POV:Ten minutes later, Jimmy entered the office with Marlowe.Marlowe walked in and looked at the mess on the ground. He teased, “What, who provoked Miss Gracia?”I rolled my eyes coldly and growled, “What brings the prestigious President Yanice here today?”A sly look appeared in Marlowe’s eyes as he said in a glib tone. “Miss Garcia, long time no see. I miss you.”I snorted, “If you have something to say, just say it.” I rolled my eyes arrogantly and impatiently.Marlowe might be one of the wealthy second generation, but he was not popular in the elite circle of the rich second generation.After all, Marlowe had been imprisoned for nine years. Moreover, his reputation was not good. The elite circle of affluent second generation was not very willing to associate with him.“Look at what you are saying, Miss Garcia. You are so distant…”
