Anya’s POV:When Liam heard about it, he couldn’t endure it any longer. He retorted, “I know Miss Walter is capable. But Evan is in trouble now. As his wife, don’t you think that you should hire a good lawyer to clear his name and get him out of jail first? As for business affairs, you could decide after Evan returns.”In other words, they felt that I should spend my effort on rescuing Evan from jail instead.After all, a lot of women were in such a manner. Whenever their men were in trouble, the woman would be in a mess while crying and begging people for help.As for all these cunning people here, this is what they wanted to see on me.However, I was not a pushover. I would not be instigated by these cunning people. I knew that it would not be easy for Evan to clear his name in such a crime.Furthermore, even if he had to be sentenced and appealed, or have his sentence reduced to the minimum, it would be years before he could be released from jail.If I didn’t manage the company for
Coral knocked on the door before entering the office. I was still engrossed in my work.“Miss Walter, it is already two o’clock in the afternoon. Would you want me to order some food for you?”I lifted my head and looked at my watch upon hearing it. I didn’t expect the time to pass so fast. It was already two o’clock in the blink of an eye.“Well, I am not hungry now. Could you get me a cup of coffee instead?” I like to have a cup of coffee while working. It would help me give me a lift and stay focused.Coral’s expression changed drastically. He then replied with caution, “Miss Water, Mr. Carter has instructed us not to let you drink coffee.”I was speechless. I lifted my head and looked at Coral, stunned.“What else did he instruct you?”“Mr. Carter instructs us not to let you work over time. You have to leave the office, and you go home, rest by six o’clock in the evening.”“Anything else?”“He also instructed us to remind you to have a meal on your time….” Coral continued to say a
Zachary’s POV:Tina was in the same hospital too, but to another floor instead.After I left my sister’s ward, I went straight to Tina’s ward on another floor.Tina had been treated in the hospital for four days. Her external injuries were healed.“It’s over! It’s over! Do you know what the doctor said just now? He said that Jenny is coming around soon. She’s going to wake soon. If she comes around and tells my parents the truth, I will be doomed!” I was a little out of my wits. I was mumbling dejectedly on the chair.Tina rolled her gloomy eyes as she lay on the bed in the ward.Tina’s POV:Zachary was already in such a miserable state. If he had fallen, I would have no one to rely on anymore.Therefore, I could not let anything happen to him right now.After all, I had only suffered from external injuries. After being treated for so many days in the hospital, I was healed.In addition, I had suffered similar injuries once in the past. Since it didn’t cause much trauma to my psycholo
Zachary’s POV:I was frozen on the spot. I stood at the side in fear. I didn’t even dare to get closer to Jenny.As for Tina, she had already made herself scarce a long time ago.“The patient has just come around and cannot be too agitated. Please let her rest first!”“That’s right! That’s right! Doctor, please do your best to save my daughter. Please don’t let her suffer from any trauma in the future!”“Don’t worry, Mrs. Gracia, we will do our best.”****The next three consecutive days, Jenny had been recuperating in the hospital. She didn’t say a single word regarding what I and Tina had done to her.This put my mind at ease for the time being.On the fourth day, I couldn’t hold it any longer. I took the initiative to apologize to Jenny when my parents were not around.I hope that Jenny would forgive me.“I am sorry, Jenny.”Jenny’s POV:I sneered at Zachary with the a pair of sharp eyes. These few days I had heard about the news that Evan was being rested by the police.Of course,
Zachary’s POV:Even if I was willing to marry Tina, my parents would never agree to it for sure.Tina seemed to be exceptionally sensitive to the word crazy, as if it would trigger the time bomb inside her. “Who are you calling crazy?”“I say, who are you calling crazy?” Tina jumped off the bed and grabbed my tie ferociously. Her eyes were burning with rage.I gasped and said, “I am crazy. I am the one who’s crazy. Happy?”In today’s society, one could provoke anyone in the world, but never offend a crazy person.Tina let go of my tie and asked angrily, “When are you going to marry me?”“Tina, it is not the time yet. You have to let me discuss it with my parents first. Furthermore, marriage is such a big matter. I can’t make my own decision. However, rest assured that I will talk about it nicely with my parents.” I said to coax Tina and calm her down for the time being.“I warn you, Zachary, if you dare to abandon me, I will not let you off easily.”My gaze drifted again. I couldn’t h
Zachary’s POV:Soon, I carry Tina’s body to the trunk of my car. After that, I drove and left the villa.I had to get rid of the body and obliterate all traces as soon as possible.Along the way, I couldn’t help bursting into cold sweats. Whenever I came to think about the body in the trunk, I would tremble uncontrollably.The moment I reached a ring road, I saw a few police car parked in the middle of the road.All the cars queued up one after another.Upon seeing such a scene, I was extremely panicked that I burst into sweat again. Beads of cold sweat started to flow down my forehead. I almost abandoned my car and fled!“Stop the car!” The two police officers stopped my car.My heart was pumping like crazy now. I even had the earth to break through the checkpoint.However, I kept telling myself that I could not be nervous at such a critical time.“Checking on drunk driving!” One of the traffic police took out a breathalyzer and instructed me to blow into the mouthpiece.I calmed mys
Harry’s POV:Tina has already gone missing for one week.Even though I was my family's successor, Tina was my only next-of-kin. Of course, I was still concerned about her. Usually, I would call Tina every other day to show concern for her. However, it had been a week since I lost contact with her.I had a strong feeling that something bad had happened to Tina.If something were to happen to Tina, the first suspect would certainly be Anya, no doubt about it.“Who are you?” Anya asked as she frowned. She seemed could not recognize my voice all of a sudden.“I am Harry!”She was stunned. Then she said, “I don’t know what you are talking about.”I said furiously, “Stop pretending, Anya! Tin has been missing for days. Are you going to tell me that you don’t know anything about it?”“Tina is missing?” she was shocked.“Stop pretending! It must be you. I am not going to let you off easily if you dare to lay your finger on Tina!”Anya seemed to be angry as she yelled over the phone. “I have n
Anya’s POV:I blinked and was so touched that tears welded up in my eyes. I hugged Jason and Jerry tightly in my arms.“Mommy, don’t cry. We will protect you on Daddy’s behalf!”“Thank you. With your protection, I’m the happiest woman in the world.”“Where is Flora?”“Flora is painting. Christmas is coming. Flora says she wants to make a Christmas gift for Daddy.”“I’d like to see her.”I got up and went to Flora’s room.In the children’s room, Flora sat in a wheelchair with a small table in front of her.There were various brushes and drawings paper on it.“Floor, what are you doing?” I walked in and asked gently.She didn’t even raise her hair. She held her paintbrush and was drawing seriously. “Mommy, I draw another family photo.”“Is that so?” I walked over and took a look.Flora drew a picture of five cartoon characters.Two adults, two little boys, and a little girl are included. Needless to say, it was our family of five.Although the stokes were crooked, I could tell that Flor
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
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
