Anya’s POV:
Around one in the afternoon, I hurried back to the X city.
Miranda had already packed the luggage for me.
The next day, I arrived early to meet up with Kester in V city.
They had it at V city airport.
“Kester, have you booked the flight tickets?”
“Yes, I have.” He sat in a wheelchair with a smile. Besides him were four bodyguards and two nurse workers.
I also brought Tatiana, and the group of people met with each other at the airport.
He stretched out his arm to me. “Oh, Anya, I miss you so much.”
I hugged him intimately, “Me too!”
He hugged me tightly and kissed me on the forehead. We looked at each other, smiled, and could not take our gentle eyes off one another.
“What time is the flight?”
“Ten o’clock!”
“It is nine o’clock now. Let’s take a seat and wait.”
“O
Anya’s POV:Seeing this, I frowned and took a deep breath.Although Princess Martha was dressed like a commander, I could still recognize her at a glance. After all, Princess Martha had just visited X city two months ago. The media reported the event and made a big story of it.Moreover, Princess Martha and Evan were wearing his and her clothes. It was obvious that they were a couple.It seemed that the pretty girl Flora was talking about was Princess Martha.“Even you had better take care of your friend. Bye.” I said and pushed the wheelchair to leave.I didn’t want to be entangled with Evan and sincerely wished him a new love.“Anya stop right there. I am, not done yet!” Seeing that I was about to leave, Evan pushed Princess Martha away.He took a step forward and grabbed my arm tightly.“Ouch.” I screamed out and was almost dragged to the ground.“Evan, we h
Coral POV:I came out of the office and was in a cold sweater.Mark asked curiously again, “What is Mr. Carter mad about this time?”“Well, he might be having an issue with Miss Walter again?”“Didn’t, he didn’t break up with Miss Walter?”I sighed with a frown, “Yeah! But who knows what Mr. Carter is thinking?”“I heard that Mr. Carter and Princess Martha are secretly dating. Mr. Carter has won the Princess’ heart. Why is he still so obsessed with Miss Walter?”I curled my lips and said, “That’s tough love! The more he loves her, the more eager he will blame her!”Mark looked grim. “So what we do now?”“Mr. Carter gave an order and wanted the Walter Group to go bankrupt within a year.”“Fuck! That’s mean.”“I agree. What kind of grudge does Mr. Carter have against
Anya’s POV:Rose called me right after I hung up with Daisy.I had no choice but to answer the call again. “Hello, Rose.”An urgent voice comes from the other end of this phone. “Miss Walter, there is a problem with the tax at the factory of M city. We have got a huge amount of back tax has to pay.”When I heard this, I was stunned. I had been telling the finance department to pay taxes on time. How could I evade taxation?“Didn’t the finance department always pay the tax on time?”Rose sighed. “The finance minister Mr. Smith has already run away. We can’t find him now. He is not answering his phone or replying to his message. He’s completely out of contact.“What?” I felt a chill in my heart.“The. Company’s book value is shot over for $1.4 million and Mr. Smith has embezzled over $2 million from the company. Michael has already called the police. The police are investigating.”Hearing this, I was shocked and could not be more pissed off.“Okay, I will see. I will return as soon as p
Anya's POV:I know that they wanted to evict her from the Walter Group.At this point, I couldn’t pretend to be polite anymore. I sneered and said, “I am more anxious than anyone else about this matter with the company. I also hope our company can grow and prosper more than anyone else! Now is the time to solve the problem, not the time to blame each other! At the very least, the financial growth of the Walter Group last year increased by 5%! To make a compromise, even if I am not qualified for the position of chairman, I will automatically withdraw from the Walter Group after three years. You can still benefit from the betting agreement, so your loss will covered. Don’t worry! You guys will certainly make profit. I don’t understand what’s there to worry about. When I make money, all of you will benefit from it. Even if I lose money, I will lose myself and you won’t be involved. I am under much more pressure than you guys.”This was the first time I was so angry during the conference.
Anya’s POV:The next day, come, I went to the company early in the morning.Today, I was going to discuss with the director about changing the company’s name.The executives and Mr. Paul and Mr White also arrived at the conference room.“Dear directors, after a night of careful consideration, I want to change the name of Walter Group’s Brain Industrial Co. Ltd. to Golden Rule Technology.”When everyone heard this, they looked at each other, thinking that they had heard wrongly. “Huh? Changed the company’s name?”“That’s not wide option, right? This name, Brain Industrial, was personally given by your grandfather. Moreover, the company has been business for half a century, and its reputation has already been established after decades of efforts. How can we dismantle or own brand?”Mr. White couldn’t sit still anymore and retorted anxiously, “That’s right! How can the company’s name be changed casually? The signboard of an old company can’t be changed hastily!”I paused for a few second
Anya’s POV:He foamed at my mouth, but he still didn’t stop scolding me aggressively.Seeing my father being cruel like this, I was heartbroken. “Is there an old man like you? Is there father like you? You didn’t even hesitate to push your daughter to the edge.”“Oh, you know that I am your father. You know, I am your father now. I won’t acknowledge you as a daughter. Didn’t you break up to relationship with me? I, Frank, do not have a daughter like you!”I took a deep breath. She was so angry that my heart was trembling. However, he was already so sick. If I provoked him again, he would probably die of anger.I took a deep breath to hide my tears. “Dad, leave the company quickly and stop fooling around!”“Why I shouldn’t? I am going to fight you to the death. You destroyed Tina. You caused my family to be separated. I won’t let you have an easy time. He scolded.Frank’s POV:Due to a cerebral infarction, I was now a hemiplegic. It was even more difficult for him to stand up on my fee
Anya's POV:Although I had announced in front of the media that I had cut ties with Frank, he was my father after all. I shouldn’t take thorough measures against him.After the trouble accused him, the Walter Group's reputation could not get any worse. A company name change was necessary.The Internet was filled with news about me angering her father to the point that he became paralyzed, driving her sister crazy, and sending her stepmother to prison.Because of such news, there was nothing I could clear my name.A ringing sound was heard.My phone rang again.“Hello, Rose, what’s up?”When I saw that it was a call from Rose, my heart was in my mouth again.On the other hand, Rose’s voice was a little grim. “Miss Walter, come to the M city immediately! $2 million was taken from the factory’s account. This money was set aside for the payment of taxes. Now the accountant has absconded with the money, it was troublesome with the taxes can’t be paid.”“I got it.”“Also, the renovations fr
Coral’s POV:At the Carter Group, I began to report on how they had attacked the Walter Group during this period of time.“Mr. Carter, the share price of the Walter Group has plummeted in the stock market.. If we attack them one more time, they will be completely dis-listed. Once they withdraw from the market, it won’t be long before they declare bankruptcy. Also, several important higher-ups of the Walter Group have been poached my the Carter Group. If these important executives leave the Walter Group, the situation will worsen for the Walter Group. The company won’t last long then.”He smiled, “Very good.”I continued to report. “Miss Waters factory in M city has almost made loss over $2 million. The accountant has already taken the money and gone out of the country. He probably won’t come back for the rest of his life.”After hearing this, he crossed his arms, and a sinister smile appeared in his eyes.At this rate, Miss Walter would go bankrupt in less than two years.“This isn’t
Tony’s POV:After hanging up the phone, the woman quickly discarded the phone in the trash can and hurriedly left.Sitting nearby, Tom and I looked at her with our mouths agape.I whispered, “Did you see that woman just now? She just tossed away her phone after spending $200 to make a call. This is just too extravagant.”My friend Tom nodded repeatedly, “With such lavish spending, she surely must have a lot of cash on her.”“Looks like our golden opportunity has arrived…”With these words, the two of us exchanged knowing looks.The greed on the edge of our courage, we decide to rob her.Observing she had left the overpass, we hastily got up and stealthily trailed her.Anya’s POV:I exited the overpass.It was already past ten in the morning. I presumed Evan would arrive shortly.“I can’t stay here. I need to leave now!”I was about to hail a taxi to escape from there.Unfortunately, this was a commercial district, and taxis were scarce.I tried to hail more than ten cars in a row, but
Evan’s POV:Boom!My heart almost stood still. I felt like I had suddenly fallen into an ice cave.I returned to my senses a moment later and said hoarsely, “I don’t believe you. You must be lying to me.”“Anya, you hate me, but the child is innocent. You must be lying to me, right?” I took a deep breath, unwilling to accept the fact.My parents passed away when I was young, and I had no siblings. My children were my only bloodline.I already had three children.However, when Jason, Jerry and Flora were born, I was not by their side. I didn’t experience the joy of being first time father then.I was fully prepared this time around and waited eagerly to welcome a new child into the family.Therefore, I could not accept the abortion.Anya paused momentarily before replying coldly, “I am telling the truth. The child has been aborted.”“I don’t have to lie to you. There is nothing else for you to expect!”Suddenly, there was utter silence on the other end of the phone.I could hear the so
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
