As Lita was in tears, she looked like a weeping beauty.I had known early that Lita wouldn't admit it.She had worked so hard for so long just to make Dave think highly of her. In that case, how could she let him change his perception of her and think badly of her so easily? But I didn't care about this anymore. I looked at Dave beside me and asked him, "Mr. Mitaka, I wonder if you did mean what you said previously?"I was just making a bet by asking him such a question.It was not a bet on his feelings for me but a bet on his possessive desire for me.Dave looked at me with hesitation.Although I had told him what Lita had said and what she had done just now, it was obvious that he wasn't completely convinced.When Lita saw Dave's hesitation, she immediately became alert and asked, "What did he say to you?""Guess it by yourself..."I looked at Lita, curled up the corner of my mouth slightly and with my expression deliberately showing mystery."What did you tell her?"Lita raised he
In the next few days, I had been living in Dave's apartment in Unit No.1.Although Dave asked me to sleep with him every night, he didn't have sex with me.When Dave went to work, maids would usually be around. If I didn't call them, they wouldn't come out so I took the opportunity to search inside his place but I didn't find any trace indicating Lita had visited.Could it be that although I had seen Lita show up in this residential quarter several times, she hadn't come to Dave's house?But then who did she visit here?After making sure she hadn't come to Dave's place, I decided to go out the next day to find a new work related to my field.That morning, I got up and waited for Dave to go out. However, Dave sat at home after breakfast. It seemed he didn't want to leave at all."Aren't you going to work?" I sat at the dining table across from him and asked.Dave elegantly touched the corner of his mouth with a tissue and looked at me. Unexpectedly, with a gentle expression on his face
This island wasn't a really big one. Its area was almost two times that of the whole residential quarter of Unit No.1.The restaurant on the island was next to the beach.When Dave and I were sitting for dinner, I noticed the sun setting little by little and finally, disappeared above the sea.Such a scene was pretty.After dinner, Dave took me to his room so I could change into the clothes he had prepared for me in advance.I flipped through the clothes and found that the clothes he had prepared were either bikinis or semi coated sunlight proof clothing..."These clothes...""I..."Carrying a bikini top in my hand, intending to question Dave, he hugged me from behind.He gently kissed my hair and said in an ambiguous tone, "Besides the ones guarding the island, I am the only one here. Feel free to wear it. Only I will see you."Although I didn't want to wear a bikini, I surely couldn't get used to the weather on the island with my current outfit.I could only choose a bikini which wa
I opened my eyes and looked at the big house, thinking of what Blue had said over the phone.Dave was a businessman.These capitalists were always keen on profit.He once promised he wouldn't do anything to Haick Design but he had gone back on his words.Why do I feel that what Blue said has nothing to do with him?What's more, Blue said Haick's mother had got a sum of money from the Mitaka Group...I was restless and the temperature in the house was low so I changed my clothes and sat in the garden downstairs.When I was staring at the sereny in a daze, I saw Oogway passing by from a distance. He was walking to his apartment.Just as I was hesitating whether to say hello to him or not, he turned his head and happened to see me.At first, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes but soon it was replaced by a smile.He came up to greet me and asked, "Why are you here?""I have nothing to do, so I came out to enjoy the senery."I was lying.Oogway seemed to see through me at a glance.
Kim's house was as messy as usual.I went straight to the kitchen to make her something first. However, as soon as I opened the refrigerator, a foul smell came out and water dripped out too.I tilted my head and glimpsed at the plug next to the refrigerator. The poor plug was lying quietly on the ground.I couldn't help complaining, "Are you sure you want to cook with the ingredients in your refrigerator?"Kim came over and saw the messy scene in the refrigerator. She patted her forehead and said, "I forgot to plug the refrigerator in the socket.""I'll clean up the refrigerator for you.""No need. no need. Let's go out to eat. I'll hire someone from the housekeeping company to clean it up tomorrow."Kim pulled me out as I got a cloth and was about to clean up the dirty water on the ground.She brought me to a spicy hot pot store near her house. The owner was an old lady.Since it was early spring, the weather was very cold so there wasn't any guest at all.As soon as Kim entered the
Dave rolled his eyes at Desmond and said, "You are so nosy. Go and drive the car.""Yes, yes!" Although Desmond promised readily, he looked at Kim's back reluctantly.Desmond sent us home. At the residential quarters, Dave took me upstairs. Along the way, he kept a straight face.I was nervous as I wondered why he was angry.Was it because I misunderstood him this afternoon or because I didn't pick up his calls?I was even more worried about what would happen at home...When the door was opened, I looked inside feeling a little scared.I wondered if Dave would lock me up.Or...While I was randomly guessing, Dave stretched out his hand and pulled me into the house directly.I subconsciously apologized, "I'm sorry, I..."Before I could finish my words, Dave suddenly hugged me.He hugged me tightly.I was stunned as my body pressed against Dave's chest.At this moment, I could only hear the sound of his strong heartbeat.It wasn't until a few seconds later that I heard Dave's voice abo
Anger overwhelmed me in an instant."Shut up!" I was so angry that I clutched the plastic bag containing eggs in my hand and swung it directly. I smashed it on Helen's head.Bang!Because of my great strength, all the eggs got broken.Blended with the broken eggshell, both the egg white and the egg yolk flowed out of the gap of the plastic bag, pasting on Helen's hair and face.She was stunned. She then loosened her grip and I pulled my hair out of her hand and said coldly, "All of this is Lita's fault. She reaps what she has sown and it has nothing to do with me.""Get back, go with us, and apologize to Lita. Tell the media that Nicki's drawings were forged by you!"As soon as I took a step, Thomas held my hand.He was a man and his strength was none compared to mine."No way. The drawings aren't fake." I looked at Thomas and found him ridiculous, "Lita is your daughter. Don't you know her capability? She's so stupid. Don't you know what kind of works she can design?""Don't talk non
Helen wanted to stop us but Thomas stopped her. After all, even though they could offend me, they couldn't afford to offend Dave.Dave took me into the residential quarter and naturally wanted to walk in the direction of his house.I stood where I was and asked him, "Dave Mitaka, were you by Lita's side last night?""Yes. Yesterday, she..." When Dave said this, he paused for a moment. It seemed he was deliberating on something.Then he added, "She committed suicide. Fortunately, a passerby found her in time and saved her life.""If she commits suicide every night, would you accompany her every night?" I asked with a mocking smile then added, "Why won't you, she's your fiancée anyway."Knowing that I was angry, Dave didn't speak or respond. He just stretched out his hand wanting to hold me in his arms.I took a step back and dodged him, asking, "Dave Mitaka, how's our child's search going? Is it as she said?""I've sent someone to look into it. There's no evidence yet." Dave said.I di
At the mention of Teresa, Finn's attitude was different from Katy's. He seemed to have no idea about Teresa's heartlessness.He looked at me and said, "Reed, it was my fault. I shouldn't have flirted with Jessica because I was married. But, but I really couldn't control myself. During that ime, I really loved her, even now I..."Finn didn't go on, but his face was full of regret.I narrowed my eyes and looked at him. Then I sneered, Mr. Finn, do you have a dead brain? Or do you have a bad memory? A few months ago, you dropped a card and said you wanted to draw a line to keep your distant from us. Don't you remember?""You cheated my mother's feelings and took her to the City. She was a healthy person before, but she was driven crazy by your wife, who is a vixen. The Newman family didn't accept her, and I grew up in a family that didn't love me. How can you be so shameless to call me daughter?"Originally, my mood was very calm. Looking at Finn, I felt like I was watching his play. How
Pigs might fly. Katy came to meet me!When I saw her, I didn't think much and turned to leave. Katy saw me and rushed out, "Alina, I'm here for you."Her voice was loud, and several colleagues looked over. However, I had no intention of entering the meeting room. Standing at the door, I looked at her with a little vigilance and sked, "Mrs. Katy, I don't think I have anything to do with you. What can I do for you?"Looking at my attitude, Katy was not angry at all. She said with a smile, "Come in. I have something to tell you.""Let's talk about it here. After all, we haven't gotten on well before. What if you hit yourself and blame it on me?" I said.There was CCTV in the conference room but I said so on purpose.In fact, I am not afraid that Katy will hit me. I am afraid that I can't help hitting her.Hearing this, Katy was a little embarrassed."No, no, come in, I'll only talk with you." She seemed to be afraid that I wouldn't go in, so she added, "Do I have to beg you."Beg me?
Bryan had been treated for a week.The fever had also subsided, and his vitals had also stabilized.These days, it's Janice who delivered food to me and Bryan.Today, Janice sent food again. There were vegetables, ribs, fish soup, and rice.Bryan's appetite recovered well, and he ate a big bowl of food in a short time.After the meal, I found that the weather outside was good, so I wanted to check with the doctor to see if I could take Bryan out for a walk.The doctor checked Bryan and agreed.Janice went to the backyard of the hospital with me.There was a small garden in the backyard, surrounded by many benches. Other patients were sitting on benches, basking in the sun."Miss Jetson."When I was walking with Bryan, someone called me from behind.I looked back and saw that it was Eunice."Miss Eunice?"I was a little surprised, so I quickly let Janice take care of Bryan and walked over to Eunice.Eunice wore a cloth hat. I could see at a glance that there seemed to be no hair under
Desmond's face turned pale. "No, that was before I met you, I really haven't messed with anyone since I met you, I swear...""Really? I've seen several of them. Next time, if you want to deceive me, make drafts first."Kim's face was full of mockery.I could see Desmond was sweating. Не showed a pleasing smile on his face, put his palms together and winked at me.I knew that he was asking me to help.I tugged at Kim's arm and said, "Alright, a prodigal who returns is more precious than gold. Forgive him for the mistakes he made before.""That's right! They are previous mistakes!" Hearing my words, Desmond immediately cast a grateful look at me.He also put on an expression of gratitude.Kim couldn't stand it. She looked at Desmond and said, "I forgive you because my Reed said to. If you dare to do it again, I'll break your leg!""Which one?""Both!""I don't dare, I won't!"They left joking.I watched them get into the elevator. I felt half of my worries had been put to rest.The othe
I looked at Oogway and didn't know how to answer for a while.He turned to look at the ward and said, "I'm no longer young. I can distinguish what I am obsessed with."Although he didn't look at me, I could tell from his expression that he was serious.Which made me sure that what he had clung to was really not like what I thought.I also followed his gaze and looked into the ward.In the ward, Bryan was looking at us.When he found that I was looking at him, he forced a smile and waved at me.I waved back.When I thought of Bryan being fine soon, my heart, which had been hanging, gradually relieved.Oogway must have seen our interaction, so he let out a chuckle.When I turned my head to look at him, he happened to look at me as well.He leaned forward slightly and asked seriously, "Do you know why Dave agreed to marry the Defiant Family?"I was a little confused by him for mentioning this.Oogway saw through my doubts and continued, "Because I found Lita and told her about what happe
Oogway looked at me, and his eyes were cold.For the sake of Bryan, I couldn't care so much. I took the man's arm and said in a friendly tone, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. I won't go to the bar again. Please forgive me."Oogway looked at me saying nothing.I didn't know what he meant.I stared at him quietly and didn't know what to do next.What else does he want me to do?My mind wandered, but I was already fully prepared for anything that could happen.After a while, Oogway put the ring in his pocket, stood up and said, "Let's go.""OK!"I thought he had forgiven me, so I hurried to follow him.We sat in his car together.The smell of alcohol lingered in his car.I was a little embarrassed but I didn't say anything.Oogway started the car and drove out of the community.The car drove for a while before I noticed that it didn't seem to be heading toward the City Hall, so I got nervous again and looked at Oogway, "Where are we going?""To pick up Bryan."He kept his eyes on the road as
Oogway picked me up and carried me into the car. I looked at him as he started the engine. I grabbed his arm and said, "I don't want to go home.""You don't?" He raised his eyebrows slightly."If I go back like this, they will be worried. Please help me... Call Kelvin and tell him I'll not go home today."I was so drunk. They will be worried about me if I went back. After all, I would not drink for no reason.Oogway nodded. I sat in the passenger seat and listened to him call Kelvin.When he hung up, he handed me the phone and started the car, "Is it okay to go to our home?"Our home?Oh, I know where it is.I nodded.I was going to be his wife anyway. That place was going to be our home in the future.I wouldn't be able to escape the reality.After a while, I fell asleep dazedly. However, maybe it was because I was in Oogway' car, I didn't sleep too deep.Not knowing how long had passed, I felt the car had stopped and he carried me.It was pitch black in front of me. I opened my e
In the evening, even the most prosperous place in the City was quiet. Around the high office buildings, there were only a few lights that were still on.I drove to the gate of Mitaka Group.I got out of the car and went to the entrance.The entrance had been closed. I wanted to go in, but a security guard came over and said, "It's closed."I looked up at the large building, except for the security room lights being on, the whole building was all dark.It seemed that Towering High was very kind to the employees, and there was not even a person working overtime.I didn't know what I wanted to do here. I hesitated for a moment, turned around and left.Back in the car, I continued driving.Finally, I found a lively place.On both sides of the road, rows of luxury cars were parked. At the entrance, the young men and women dressed in various kinds of clothes were chatting at the door, and some people were vomiting in the tree pits.Liquor.I wanted to drink.Perhaps if I was drunk, I would
Oogway put his arm around my waist and said to Teresa, "Miss Teresa, you are also a famous lady in this City. Whether in terms of social status or background, you are better than my Alina. But men love her, not you. Don't you think it's shameful? What are you still arguing for?"He made Teresa's face turn pale in a few words.She stared at Oogway and said with a fake smile, "Well, well, what's wrong with you? Do you believe she loves you and is willing to marry you just because she says? Tell you what, Oogway, she and Dave love each other no matter where they are!""Since you know it, what are you clinging to?"Oogway asked her.Teresa looked at Oogway and sneered. "Then what are you clinging to? We are all clinging to the same thing. Why do you ask me?"Hearing what Teresa said, Oogway's face was still calm.He drew back his hand, propped both elbows on the table, looked at Teresa and said slowly, "How do you know that we are clinging to the same thing?"Teresa suddenly became speech
