The CEO's Switched Bride Chapter 118
After that day, my life went on as usual.I was assigned with a project related to a small sized western restaurant.The western restaurant was located in the bustling area downtown. On the first day, I went there to have an inspection.After I came out of the restaurant, I was pondering on where and what to have lunch when I looked up and saw a familiar figure.Dave!We hadn't seen each other for weeks.He looked glorious as usual in his gem blue shirt and casual pants with a woman by his side.The two of them were walking towards the jewelry shop next door.That store was specialized in selling diamonds, mainly diamond rings for weddings.Although I only saw the woman's back view, I was very sure that was not Lita.The woman's hair was black and shiny and Lita's hair was permed all year around. Moreover, I thought of the date when Lita had said she was pregnant last time. If there was no accident, Lita surely had been pregnant for three months and she surely couldn't wear high hee

The woman seemed to understand something. She smiled and said, "Do you want to talk with each other? I'll excuse myself first."As she spoke, she was about to walk to the side.Dave didn't move but I got nervous and quickly stopped her, "No, no! Mr. Mitaka is the boss of our company. What can I say to him?"The woman stopped and looked at me then she looked at Dave and asked, "Are you sure?""Yes!" I nodded desperately, "Goodbye, Mr. Mitaka!"After that, I ran away in a flash.It wasn't until I turned the corner of the shop that I stopped and looked back, only to see Dave and the woman standing beside their car talking.After, they got into the car.At this time, I realized my heart was pounding and at the same time, I felt I was sour and uncomfortable in my heart.However, I had observed the woman closely just now.She, who was different from Lita, was dressed decently and acted gracefully. At first glance, it was obvious she was a lady from a rich family.Only such a woman was worth

After I was sure Lita stood firmly, I loosened my grip and said without looking back, "Are you done with your acting? Cameras are all around here. How come you want to put on a show, acting like I pushed you and causing a miscarriage?""I didn't."Lita stood there with tears in her eyes, looking in the direction behind me.I asked, "How could there be so many coincidences in the world? As soon as Mr. Mitaka showed up, I pushed you. Are you a fool? Or do you take Mr. Mitaka as a fool?""I didn't..."By this time, tears had been welling up in Lita's eyes as if they would fall in the next second.I didn't bother with her as I said, "Take your time to complain to Mr. Mitaka, telling him I quarreled with you, intending to push you and make you lose your baby. I don't care."At this time, I didn't want to explain further.I was so tired.I got home in the evening and wanted to rest when I received a phone call from Lydia.She said she wanted to redesign somewhere in the hall.The Engineerin

I closed the door and went back to sleep.However, lying on the bed, I couldn't help but think of the fact that Lita had been chased by several bodyguards a few days ago.I wondered whether her kidnapping was done by the bodyguards as well.The next day, as soon as I left the company, several policemen came over.They took out their police ID and said, "Reed Defiant, we are from the police headquarters and have a few questions for you."The colleagues around who came out with me, all looked at me.I guessed right away that they came to me for Lita's case so I said calmly, "Go ahead." The police didn't tell me whether Lita had been found or not and what on earth was going on with Lita's issue. They just asked where I had been the night before.I answered honestly, "A client asked me to make some changes to a project so I went to their side."The policeman asked again, "Can someone testify for you?"I said with confidence, "Of course! The client came to pick me up at home in person." B

Before I could finish cooking my meal, my cell phone rang. It was a call from a strange number. My first reaction was that the call should be from a client so I picked it up without deliberation.Unexpectedly, the moment I picked up, Helen's hysterical voice came from over the phone, "Reed Defiant! You're going to die a terrible death! You don't have any conscience at all. Why harm Lita like this? I'm going to kill you!"I listened to her words for a while without any expression on my face and hung up without allowing her finish, then, I blacklisted the number.I had already blacklisted Helen and Thomas' phone number so their calls couldn't come in at all.Now, to scold me, Helen used a new number.It seemed what had happened to Lita was serious this time.Even so, in my opinion, it had nothing to do with me.The next morning, I arrived at the company. As soon as I entered the office, I saw several colleagues of mine converge and chatting. When they saw me coming in, they stopped a

Could it be that Comfort was the one who had ruined Lita?She did so to change Judith's will or something?I wanted to listen to her conversation but she hung up and entered the ward.I also came out of the corner and walked into the ward. Before I could arrive at the door, I heard Comfort crying and saying, "Mom, you have to get better."She was indeed good at acting.Although the door was open, I still knocked on it gently.Comfort turned her head. Seeing that it was me, she suddenly shouted as if she had gone crazy, "How dare you!"As she said this, she stood up and rushed to me.Before I could dodge her, I heard Judith's weak voice coming from behind her, "Comfort, come back."When Comfort came over, I happened to see Judith.Lying on the bed, Judith had a yellow and sallow look on her face, looking very weak.She seemed to have lost a lot of weight and she got injections on the back of her hand.After hearing Judith's words, Comfort stopped but her face was full of anger as she

I found that Helen's values were distorted.In terms of being raped and being imprisoned, in my opinion, neither of them was a light punishment. However, for the sake of Judith, I didn't argue with Helen. I just continued to repeat my words, "This matter has nothing to do with me. You can just investigate it. Moreover, I have no interest in Dave anyway. I don't have any motive to harm her."I finished my words calmly.In my opinion, the Defiant family members were worse than strangers.What had happened to them couldn't affect my emotions at all.Thomas stood on the side, saying nothing.Helen cried. She went to sit on the sofa and said in tears, "It has to be you. Besides you, no one else would do so."Helen's words stunned me but it did make sense. If it wasn't me, who else could it be?But I was innocent so I said, "It's has nothing to do with me. Anyway, it's the police's job to find the culprit."Judith opened her mouth, "Don't speculate about anything randomly before Lita wake

Seeing that I didn't say anything, Dave continued, "If you want to be on your own in the future, the competition will be a very good opportunity for you to train yourself. And it will also be a shortcut for you to establish your own brand."Hearing Dave's words, I was even more confused about what he wanted to convey but it was undeniable that his words touched me.Before I could say anything, Dave added, "Troy Benjamin will be one of the judges."Originally, I wasn't tempted but when I heard this name, I looked at him in disbelief, "Who?""Troy Benjamin."Dave repeated the name again.Troy Benjamin could be said to be the most legendary one among the contemporary designers in the world. He was known as a genius. He was not only an interior designer but also an architectural designer.In terms of his works, others could see his creative and innovative thoughts in them. It was a dream for a lot of designers to see Troy Benjamin in person and hear him make comments on their works.It wa

My heart pounded against my ribs as I took a shaky breath, trying to steady my emotions. But as I turned to face the guests, my family, my friends, and most of all, the man standing just a few steps away, my voice trembled with overwhelming emotion."This isn’t just Kim’s wedding," I finally said, my voice thick with unshed tears. "It’s mine too."Gasps filled the air, followed by a stunned silence. Then, all at once, the crowd erupted into excitement.I heard my mother’s joyful sob, saw Kelvin blinking in surprise before his face broke into a smile. Kim squeezed my hand, winking, and Desmond chuckled beside her. But my eyes weren’t on them.They were on Dave.He stood motionless for a moment, his eyes locked on mine. Then, with the help of his crutches, he began to walk toward me, determination in every step.When he finally reached my side, he lifted a hand to my face, his thumb brushing against my cheek.“You’re crying,” he murmured, his voice thick with emotion.I laughed shakily,

Dave surely wouldn't say no to Desmond.Seeing that Dave had personally agreed, Desmond couldn't be more joyful.Hearing Desmond's words, Dave lowered his eyes slightly. Falling silent for a moment, he didn't promise Desmond immediately.I knew what he was hesitant about.In his current situation, it was difficult for him to stand on stage. He might need a crutch.As I was about to refuse on behalf of him, Dave spoke first, "Okay, no problem.""Then I'm leaving. I won't bother you two anymore!"Hearing that Dave had agreed, Desmond left.After Desmond left, I said with some concern, "Desmond is one of us. If you are in a difficult position, tell him directly.""I know." Dave looked up at the rehabilitation equipment on the side and said, "But we agreed on this a long time ago. I can't let him down."It made sense. Desmond had always been by Dave's side.They two should have agreed on this early.Dinner was a quiet affair, but in the best way possible. The kind where words weren’t alw

Dave and I lived in the town for a while.When we lived together, Dave would make love to me against my will with the excuse that it would be conducive to the recovery of his legs.Frequently, we didn't go to bed until the middle of the night. I was so exhausted that I didn't even know when he had gone to rehabilitation in the morning.One and a half months later, Dave's legs had recovered to a great extent. He could walk for a short distance without a crutch.On the last day of the rehabilitation training, the doctor told us in the rehabilitation room that Dave could return to the City, saying that he could finish the rest of the rehabilitation training at home.Hearing this, Dave bought flight tickets on the same day.We went back and packed up our things before setting off.The next night, Dave and I landed at the airport.After going back home, Dave and I didn't get Bryan back to our side for the time being. Dave had been quite busy because of his work.He worked overtime after m

Teresa walked gracefully and looked at us, asking, "What happened?"She looked as if she was watching a good show. From this, I knew that she surely had been eavesdropping inside for a while and that she surely had known what had happened by this time.Having been in contact with Teresa for a long time, these people were naturally close to her.Hearing her question, everyone told her what had happened.Teresa looked at me with an unconcealable smile on her face, saying to me, "People in this town are clean and simple. How can you act the same way as you did in the City? You are a discredit here.""He gave me the key." I defended myself.Teresa surely wasn't convinced as well, saying, "Even if you are lying, you have to make up convincing lies. Everyone knows that you and I are both kept outside here. He probably doesn't even know that you are here. How would he give you the key?"As Teresa spoke, she had a smug look in her eyes.Sure enough, after she finished her words, the ones arou

Picking up my cutlery and taking a bit of rice, I said, "I'm leaving tonight. I'll come see you every night in the future.""Why?"Hearing this, Dave was a little puzzled.I chuckled, "I won't tell you! Anyway, don't let others know that I've been here."I didn't tell him why. However, Dave was so smart. Seeing my expression, he immediately said, "You want to keep her in the dark, right?"I nodded.Since Teresa had put in so much effort to put on a show, I naturally wouldn't let her act in vain.He nodded.However, when I left, I didn't climb over the wall again. Dave found someone and gave me a key to the back door locked all year round.I left through the backdoor.The next morning, I went to the hospital as usual.Teresa wore a blue and white dress with knee length today.Sitting on the opposite side of the road, she stared at the hospital door in a daze.When I went over, Teresa looked up at me and said with a hint of disdain, "I thought you were gone.""No, I didn't."There was a

A long time seemed to have passed since we made love. However, Dave was quite familiar with my body. Hooking my arms around his neck, I looked at him and said, "I want you."I rarely said so.At this moment, I knew that by seeing what I did and hearing my words, Dave could be infinitely confident.Raising his head, Dave hadunconcealable excitement in his eyes.Reaching out and pushing aside the strands of hair on my cheeks, he said, "You have me.""You have me."After he said so, the ambiguous and warm atmosphere permeated the room.By the time I opened my eyes again, day...Someone outside knocked on the door. A nurse seemed to be calling Dave to do the rehabilitation training.I looked at Dave sleeping soundly beside me with my face slightly blushed. Last night, we had been making love for a long time. Dave seemed to have inexhaustible strength. One or two hours had passed only since we went to bed.Dave, like me, heard what the nurse had said outside. Without opening his eyes, he

After I entered the room, it was dark inside with the curtains drawn. I couldn't see anything.Wondering where Dave was, I was sure that he surely had fallen asleep.I reached out to fudge around, trying to figure out the situation inside the room.All of a sudden, I ended up touching a soft and sturdy body.I was shocked.Then, I heard Dave say, "Leave quickly. Or I'll call a bodyguard."His voice was cold and emotionless.I couldn't help but shudder.I suspected that the bodyguard had betrayed me.As I was about to say something, I heard him say, "You surely know the situation of Michaelson Group well. With a phone call from me, Michaelson Group will close down tomorrow. At that time, you may not even afford to return to the City."It turned out that he mistook me as Teresa.Sensing that he was standing, I wondered whether Dave's legs had been healed."You... ""It's me."As Dave was about to speak again, I reached out and hugged him directly.While hugging him, I touched something

Kim picked up the call and spoke in surprise over the phone, "You are making an international call.""I have something to tell you." Looking at the desktop wallpaper on my computer screen, I thought for a moment before saying, "Yesterday, I learned that Teresa and Dave might have a son and that he should be about the same age as Bryan.""What?"I could strongly sense Kim's surprise over the phone so I moved the cell phone a little further away from me.Kim continued, "That's impossible. What the hell is this? Didn't he ever tell you about this?"Holding the cell phone, I shook my head, "No, I knew it yesterday. And now I'm in a mess.""Well, regarding this..." Kim said over the phone, "In my opinion, you should ask Dave about this by yourself. After all, Teresa is good at disguising herself. You don't even know whether she is telling the truth or not. Nobody knows that she, who is a high ranking socialite in the City before, is a shrew in private, right? You'd better confirm with Dave

I looked left and right.The wall guarding the hospital was made up of ordinary brick. It was only more than two meters high. In fact, the wall couldn't be of any deterring effect at all.After thinking for a moment, I said to the bodyguard, "Since you won't let me in, I'll go. Please don't tell Dave that I've come here, okay?"The bodyguard didn't know that I probably would make other moves.If he knew, I wouldn't have any chances at all.Looking at me, he hesitated for a moment and nodded.Fearing that he promised me nominally, I put my palms together devoutly and pleaded, "Please don't tell him.""Well, I won't."The bodyguard promised once again.Only after that was I rest assured.Seeing that I came out, Teresa stood at the door and looked sarcastic, "I originally thought you would be greatly respected. It turned out that you were kept outside as well."Looking at Teresa, I wasn't angry, asking, "Miss Teresa, you are a socialite in the City. I remember when we first met, you talk
