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.

    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

    At this time, Judith was sleeping so my first reaction was to walk out of the ward with my cell phone.The corridor was in a mess and the voices of doctors and nurses were mingled together."What's going on?""I don't know. When I checked the room, she wasn't there. I didn't pay attention to it at first but the security guard said there was a patient on the roof just now and I saw it was the patient in bed No. 3!"The nurse, who was speaking, sounded like she was crying.If something bad happens to Lita, she surely would be implicated.Several doctors went upstairs with the nurse.At this time, Thomas and Helen weren't here and Judith was resting. In other words, there was only one person related to Lita in the whole Hospital, that was, me.I followed the doctors and nurses and got into the elevator.At the top floor....It was April now and the weather was cold at this time. After I went up, I saw Lita, who was dressed in a thin hospital gown, standing on the edge of the rooftop.The

    It was like a thunderbolt out of a clear sky!Lita, I, and all the doctors, nurses as well as security guards around were all shocked.Lita stood on the rooftop and burst into tears."Yes, I've seen you. I can die in peace now and go accompany my child."She was just about to spread her hands when a woman's voice came from behind me, "Don't do it Lita! Lita!"I recognized the voice at once. It was Helen.I turned around and saw Helen, Thomas, and a few policemen.Helen looked at Dave and rushed over. She clenched her fists wanting to hit him, only to be stopped by several bodyguards.She, who was unwilling to give up, shouted at Dave, "Dave, you are so cruel!"Dave stood there as Helen shouted hysterically, "Lita did everything for you. She gave everything for you and now that her child is gone and she has been tarnished, you turn your back on her. Moreover, everyone knows about it! Never should you expect that I will let you get away with it easily!"Dave remained silent.He looked a

    "The building is so high. If she falls, she surely will die!" Hearing my words, Helen couldn't be angrier."Hehe. Then she will have to jump down before we can know the answer."I indeed wasn't worried that Lita would fall.As I was bickering with Helen, I heard Dave's voice ringing above my head. He asked me, "What do you want me to do, Reed?"His voice wasn't loud but I, who was beside him, and Helen, both heard his words."How come you ask her? On what grounds can you ask her opinion about something related to my daughter's life? She surely wants Lita to die. She was the one who did all these things to Lita!" Helen said hysterically."I've already said it. It had nothing to do with me." I looked in the direction of Lita and said, "Why don't you ask her about the men chasing her a few days ago?"As I was speaking, Dave grabbed my hands more and more tightly. He asked again, "What do you want me to do? Reed, as long as you say it, I will agree."Every word Dave had said was firm and

    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
