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
As soon as I finished my words, tears fell from my eyes for no reason.It was completely out of my control.It wasn't until I felt the heat and humidity on my cheeks that I realized I was crying.Dave looked at me. There seemed to be something brewing in his black eyes. He reached out and wiped away my tears bit by bit.For a long time, he didn't say anything.Sensing Judith's weakness, I knew I didn't have time to be unreasonable. I begged him, "Mr. Mitaka, I beg you to marry my sister." Fearing that he would refuse, I added, "Just now, you said you would agree with whatever I say."Hearing what I said, Dave gave a wry smile.He looked at me and remained silent for a moment before saying, "Yes, I said that so I will stick with my words."For some reason, I noticed Dave's eyes seemed to be a little moist.He looked at Lita and said, "I'll marry you.""Really?"Lita's eyes were full of joy.Dave walked over to Lita. She didn't resist.At this time, Judith was relieved. After the docto
I went to see Judith after getting off work every day.She was now back in her ward but she was on stand by for an operation because of her physical condition, her operation time was delayed for four days.On the day of her operation, I arrived at the hospital early.As soon as I entered the ward, Judith's eyes lit up when she saw me. She said happily, "Reed, you're here.""Well, Grandma, how do you feel today?"I looked around, only to see that no one else was in the ward except Stacy, who was sitting by Judith's bed and holding a bowl of porridge.Neither Thomas nor Comfort came.Judith took a sip of porridge and took a deep breath, "I am much better. The doctor has checked on me this morning.""Well, that's good." I nodded.I stayed with Judith for two hours without anyone coming to see her. A middle aged doctor in a white coat came in and introduced himself to Judith, "Hello, my name is Anthony Mars and I will be your surgeon today.""Hello, hello." Judith quickly greeted the do
After that, she began to cry at the door of the ward.The medical staff coming and going all looked at her.I, who was standing behind her suddenly felt a little angry.Comfort was just putting on a show. Seeing this, I walked to the elevator.When the door of the elevator opened, I saw two people standing inside.Lita and Dave.Originally, the two of them were standing side by side with each other but as soon as Lita saw me, she immediately held Dave's arm and leaned on him.She greeted me delicately and said, "Reed, good to see you."The two of them walked out.I didn't say anything. I bypassed them and stepped into the elevator.The elevator went down little by little but I felt a little pain in my heart.I had asked Dave on the rooftop to marry Lita and what I had said that day had been echoing in my ears. The look on Dave's face when he bowed his head and wiped my tears had also been lingering on my mind.If only he loved me...How great would that be?!When the door of the eleva
At the entrance of the hospital while waiting for a taxi, Dave appeared in front of me."Mr. Mitaka, is there anything else?" I looked up at him, trying to make my voice distant.Dave pulled me with one hand and took out a necklace from the pocket of his trousers with the other.He then stretched out his hand. I lowered my head and saw a pink diamond necklace in it. It was the birthday present he had gotten for me.My heart ached as I said, "Mr. Mitaka, you don't have to do this."Dave only said two words, "Take it." Then he stuffed the necklace into my hands roughly.It was the first time I was seeing the necklace during the day.The golden sunlight set against the pink diamond necklace making it dazzling. Under the golden sunlight, the necklace was shining brightly, especially the pink heart shaped diamond. It looked so perfect, making others lust for it.I looked at the necklace for a moment and tried returning it, "I'm sorry, Mr. Mitaka. It is too expensive and not suitable for m
I needed someone to bail me out but whom can I turn to?Kim?She just posted on her Facebook account earlier and she was in Ghana now.Who else can I turn to?Sitting in the guard room of the police station, I looked at the watch, which turned around little by little, on the wall outside.It was eleven o'clock in the evening.When I thought I would be detained like this, the police came over, "Reed Defiant, you got bailed. You can leave now.""Who is it?"I was so surprised. When I came to the door of the police station, I saw a man standing there in a light colored suit under the somewhat cool moonlight.When he saw me coming out, he waved to me.The sky was dark and I didn't recognize who it was but when I got closer, "Desmond Gaddy? Why are you here?"How is it him?"Why am I here? Do you think I would have loved to pick you up in the middle of the night?"Desmond's expression was similar to mine. He took out the key of his car, pointed at a high end sports car not far away, and
More than a week had passed and I hadn't even drafted my design work yet. Fortunately, Comfort had booked an escort room in the hospital so I stayed there with my laptop to work.After checking on Judith, I went back to work on my drawings. However, a day later, I received a summon letter from court, informing me the case of Judith's surgery had been pushed to court.When I saw the summon letter, I genuinely realized I was about to fight another 'battle' again.In desperation, I had to call Kim, asking if she knew any lawyer.Kim had a lot of connections. When I told her about this matter, she sent me the name of a law firm, a lawyer, and his phone number.It was just that she was abroad now and couldn't be with me.The law firm referred by Kim was called Nommy Law Firm. Although I had searched for this law firm on the internet before, I dared not call them at all.This time, it was Kim who introduced them to me. I hesitated for a moment and decided to try my luck.I took a leave from
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
