Third person’s POV:At this point, the entire banquet hall instantly fell silent.Although none of them could see the middle-aged woman’s face, they could tell for sure that Anya was drugged at the wedding banquet six years ago and was sent to Evan’s room on purpose.In other words, six years ago, Anya did not take the initiative to enter Evan’s room, and someone had deliberately planned this.Seeing this Mia was so frightened that her face turned pale.She was the one who ordered that person to drug Anya.Originally, she wanted to play a little trick.She wanted to set Anya up and make her a shameless person who tried to seduce her brother-in-law.She wanted to ruin Anya’s reputation and make her lose the right to inherit the Walter Group. However, she didn’t expect that she would mess it up.“Oh my god, this is…”“It turned out that we have misunderstood Miss Walter for all these years!”“That’s right! From the looks of it, Miss Walter has been set up by someone with ill intentions.
Mia’s POV:After we all returned home, Tina ran upstairs and locked the door.She had been crying all the way.Seeing this I became furious. “Look at your daughter. She failed again!”Frank frowned but didn’t say anything.Seeing the cowardly look on his face I was even more upset.“No matter what. I want you to hold a press conference immediately and announce that you are serving your father-daughter relationship with her. She destroyed Tina’s engagement banquet six years ago. Now, she is trying to ruin it again. Tina’s whole life is ruined by her.”He looked at me with a frown. “From the video, Anya was also set up six years ago. I don’t think she did it on purpose. Now, it seems that it’s better to find the person who set her up first.”“She might have made up the whole story. Six years ago, she might have planned it herself! No matter what, it was because of that the marriage between Mr. Carter and Tina was delayed again and again! This time if Tina’s marriage is ruined, I won’t l
Anya’s POV:Jerry stammered and looked at me carefully, “Mommy, we didn’t…”Seeing Jerry’s reaction, my heart skipped a bit. ‘It seemed that these two had really touched my computer!’“Mommy doesn’t like dishonest children. Tell me the truth!”The boys didn’t dare to hide it and said their childish voices. “We did use the computer!”Hearing that I felt a chill down my spine and looked at my two sons in disbelief. “So you really did the sabotage at Mr. Carter’s engagement banquet, didn’t you?”The boys looked at each other and did not dare to speak.“I’m asking you, did you do it?”“Yes, we did did it.”“Why did you do that?” My voice raised.Jerry was so scared that he started crying. “Mommy, don’t be mad at us!”Jason raised his little face and said, “Mommy, it's not Jerry’s fault. I did it. I am the only one who should be punished!”Hearing that I gasped and my eyes darkened. “Why did you do this?”Saying that I could not help but glare at Jason.I was furious and had never got so m
Anya’s POV:The two of them were furious and looked like they were at the edge of fighting each other.Seeing this, my heart sank.“Stop arguing! Calm down. You both…”“Beep!”At this moment, Evan’s phone rang.Since I was standing close to him, I saw that it was a call from Butler, Josh.Josh has always been a stood guy and wouldn’t call him easily unless it was an emergency.Evan frowned and answered the call.The Butler’s urgent voice comes from the other end of the line. “Hello, Mr. Carter, your grandmother is in hospital. Please come over quickly!”“What happened to Grandma?”“She had a sudden cerebral infraction. Come as fast as you can!”“Okay, I will be right there!”After hanging up, Evan hurriedly left.After he left Kester sighed with relief. “Anya, are you alright?”“I’m fine.”“What exactly is Evan trying to do?”I sighed, not knowing what to say.“My head is mess right now. I want to be alone for a while!”“Alright, go back to your room and have a rest!”“Kester, you can
Evan’s POV:After Grandma woke up I accompanied her in the ward.Around ten o’clock, the door of the ward pushed open. I looked in the direction of the door and saw Tina and Mia walking in.“Evan, how is Mrs. Carter?”Seeing these two coming just like that, I frowned. “Why are you here?”Mia walked towards the bed and placed the food basket by the head of the bed. “I just called the Butler and he said that Mrs. Carter is sick, which really scared our entire family! After we heard the news, we immediately come here in a hurry!”“Mrs. Carter how are you?”Mia greeted Grandma with concern and acted like she was her in-law without even an ounce of awkwardness even though I had just run away from the engagement banquet.However, as long as we didn’t announce the annulment of the engagement in public, in the eyes of the outsider we are already engaged.“Grandma had just woken up, and she can’t be agitated. You two should leave now!”“Oh, then, Mrs. Carter have a good rest and get well soon!
Anya’s POV:“Anya, what’s the matter?” he asked.“Speak!” His voice comes from the other end of the line.I pondered briefly and said, “Um, I have already asked Jason and Jerry about the shooting. Jason is unwilling to go, but Jerry is willing to go!”“Oh, that’s great!” Kester said.I still asked for worriedly. “I want to ask again. The shooting won’t take too long, right? Don’t let it interfere with his studies.”“It won’t,” he said. “One day is enough!”“Alright, then!” I replied, “When will be the shoot?”“Next Saturday!” he answered.“Alright”“I will drive to pick him up next Sunday then.” He said, with a smile.“Okay! If there is nothing else, I will hung up first.” I said.“Okay!” Kester said.Usually, I hang up, but today is the first time I didn’t hang up the phone.Then, their flirting and bantering voice came from the other end of the line.Hearing that, I suddenly felt an indescribable emotion.I know there were always women around him, and he was a playboy.Therefore, no
Tina’s POV:After being kept pestering by him frantically, I became worried.“It doesn’t matter if he loves me or not. I love him and that’s enough. Paul if you really love me, stop harassing me! You can’t give me what I want!” I said.He seemed to be in a state of deep despair as he begged me with dissatisfaction. “Tina marriage is a lifetime of happiness. Don’t joke about your own happiness.”However, without waiting for him to finish talking, I interrupted me impatiently. “My happiness is marrying Evan. And I love him too. I’m just fooling around with you. How dare you push your luck and want me to marry you!”“I…”“Don’t call me again if you dare to rule my happiness. I won't forgive you for the rest of your lifeAs soon as I finished speaking, I ended the call.After the call, I felt distressed and decided to go out for a while. However, as soon as I opened the door, I saw my mother eavesdropping outside my room.Seeing this, I became even more angry.“Mom, why are you standing o
After being hospitalized for more than a week, Grandma’s condition had stabilized.And today she is going to be discharged from the hospital.“Grandma, be careful!” I said.Even though there were four healthcare workers and two family doctors taking care of Grandma, I didn’t feel at ease. So, I helped her onto the wheelchair.Because of the stroke, Grandma’s speech was a little slurred. “It’s okay. Don’t be nervous!” she said.“I will send you home, Grandma!”“All right,” she replied. “Evan you have been in the hospital for so many days. Work is more important. You should go to the office tomorrow.” She added.“Grandma, I will take care of you for a few more days. Nothing is more important than your health. I will go to the office after you recover completely!” I said.Shaking her head, she said, “I am fine. There are so many people looking after me. You can’t neglect the work in the office!”“Alright then,” I said, “I’ll go to the office tomorrow.”Grandma paused and sighed. Then she
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
