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

I was a little hesitant however, knowing I hadn't found a lawyer yet, I knew if it was Oogway who introduced a lawyer to me, they probably would give me a discount so I said shamelessly, "Yes, I haven't gotten one yet."Oogway called me in. Only then did I know that this lawyer was Harry Necton, an ace lawyer of Nommy Law Firm.After entering the office, I told Harry the situation and he nodded."No problem. I can take this case.""Then regarding the lawyer's fee..." I didn't expect Harry to agree but then again I was afraid he would charge a high price.Before Harry could respond, Oogway said first, "I give you so much money every year and I never turn to you at all some times. This case is on the hospital.""You don't have to." I said first.Harry glanced at Oogway and hesitated for a moment then said, "It's the first time I've seen you make a request for a woman. For the sake of you being an old bachelor, I'll count it as your case this time."I wanted to oppose however, Oogway an

Standing at the side, Haick watched me disregard his drawing and opened a new interface to work on.He smiled bitterly, "You! You indeed haven't changed at all. I saved the previous version of your drawing for you.""Thank you." Following his words, I found the previous version of my drawing.If he hadn't saved the previous version of my drawing, I would have drawn a new one or give up the design competition. Never would I have taken part in the contest with the drawing designed by him. Comparing his modified version with mine, I felt there was indeed a lot of gap between his and mine.Staring at what I had drawn, I smiled bitterly, "I'd better delete it and figure out a new one."Haick shook his head and sat next to me, "Come on. Let me tell you where your problem lies."That night, Haick gave me a lot of guidance.Although I didn't have time to modify the drawing, I recorded his instructions one by one.It wasn't until he finished talking that I remembered to ask, "Why are you here

Soon, we arrived at the floor where Jessica's ward lay. When we went over, a nurse happened to come out of it. Upon seeing us, she greeted Oogway respectfully, "Dean Oogway.""Yes." Oogway nodded and asked, "How's Miss Jessica?"After Jessica was transferred here, Oogway completed the registration for her under the name of Jessica Drake.As for this, I didn't raise any objections about it. Because in my opinion, the Newman Family no longer regarded her as a family member.The nurse replied, "The patient has fallen asleep. I measured her temperature just now. It's normal. This afternoon, we examined her, only to find that she is seriously malnourished. She suffers from a low degree cataract in her eyes. More heinously, there are parasites inside her body. Besides..."Standing there, the nurse told us about the situation of Jessica roughly.Hearing the ins and outs, Kelvin looked serious on the side.Oogway asked, "Can we go in and have a look at her?""Yes. But she has fallen asleep. H

Kelvin spoke loudly over the phone.Moreover, it was pretty quiet inside the car. Oogway seemed to hear his words and glanced at me out of the corner of his eyes, "Is Mr. Kelvin coming over?"I nodded.Oogway immediately said, "Then I'll arrange a room for him on the top floor of the rehabilitation center.""Well, sorry to trouble you."I was grateful for Oogway's attentiveness.As we were about to arrive home. I suddenly remembered something and said to Oogway, "Can you take me somewhere?""Yes, I can." Oogway nodded.I got an address online and sent it to him.Oogway immediately turned the car around and drove there with me.As he turned the car around, he raised his hand and looked at me with some displeasure, saying, "In the future, wherever you want to go, just tell me directly. You don't have to ask my opinion first. I will always be available for you."I nodded. Only after that did I tell him where I was going.It was a light and textile market selling cloth and hand made craf

I went up and supported Jessica readily. Fearing that she wouldn't accept it, I said, "Aunt, can I bathe you? By the way... I can bathe your baby too.""It sounds good!" Jessica accepted it happily.All the nurses looked at me with strange looks.Ignoring the looks, I stepped forward and helped Jessica take a bath.The rehabilitation center of the Way Hospital was in a good condition. There was a Jacuzzi. After I finished pouring the water into the bath, I let Jessica sit inside.I cleaned up the doll first. Seeing that, Jessica became quite obedient.I bathed her with scented soap first and then rubbed her with a bath towel little by little.It had been a long time since Jessica took a bath, making her body covered with a layer of shell like and hard skin. Seeing so, I asked Oogway to fetch me some white vinegar. After that, I bathed her bits by bits.Sensing that the water turned cold, I scooped the cold water out with a basin and added hot water in.Because it had been years sinc

I stood still and said to her, "We won't do that. We... we'll transfer you and your child to a better place. She... She..." I hesitated for a moment and said, "She is all grown up. And she will have to go to school soon. It's not good for her to be here. She has to go to a better place where there are teachers to impart her knowledge, which is good for her."Upon hearing this, Jessica stared at me with her pair of clear and bright eyes as if she had understood my words and suddenly became as obedient as a child, saying, "Really? Is it true that someone will teach her?""Yes, it is true. The teacher is great and experienced. Any child who follows him can learn a lot and become smart." I tried to persuade her.Jessica nodded desperately, "Okay, okay. That will be so great." She looked at the doll in her arm, "Reed, did you hear that? You can learn soon.""Yes, yes." I echoed. And my tears kept falling.Oogway patted me on the shoulder and said, "Come on, let's go transfer her to another

The nurse took us inside and said, "To be honest, before you, nobody visited the patients here. Generally speaking, the reason why people send patients here is that they have a guilty conscience. They are too embarrassed to kill them and yet find them a burden. So they send them here and pay for their stay here to keep their conscience at bay."The more the nurse said, the more upset I felt.It was quiet on the fifth floor as well.I saw that there was a small window on the door of each ward. With the window high up on the door, someone my height couldn't see what was inside.However, Oogway was taller. He looked around with a frown and a dignified look on his face.Seeing him look like this, I was worried."Bang!" When we were going, a sound rang all of a sudden.I was so frightened that I shrank backward and looked at the door where the noise came from, only to find a face attached tightly to the window on the door.The face was black, dirty, and skinny.The pair of eyes above were

Oogway and I arrived at the gate together.As expected, there was a security guard at the gate . We went over and saw the old security guard laying there in a thick military green overcoat, listening to music.The sound of the music was quite loud.It wasn't until we called him for a long while that he heard us.Looking at us in discontent, the old guard got up and opened the window of the gatehouse, leaving it ajar."Hello, we want to...""No visit is allowed during the New Year."As soon as I opened my mouth, the guard snapped. After that, he closed the window.He was afraid that we would harass him. Then he locked the window from inside.I became anxious all of a sudden.Oogway beside me wasn't in a hurry at all.He reached out, took out his wallet from his pocket, and took out a stack of pink banknotes before putting them in front of the window.The security guard's eyes lit up as soon as he saw the money. Instead of opening the window, he came out directly from the gatehouse, o

I glanced at it and found that there seemed to be an inkstone in the first box.But what was different was that the inkstone wasn't black but red.I was confused. However, as soon as the Master of the Newman Family saw this, his hands began to tremble. Placing his hand a few meters away from the inkstone, he seemed to intend to touch it but dared not do so.After a long while, he asked, "Is this for me?""Of course, it is a red silk inkstone I got by chance. I don't know about this kind of inkstones. It will be a waste if I keep it by my side."Oogway said casually.Although he spoke lightly, I could tell that this inkstone should be quite rare."Thank you, Mr. Oogway." When the Master spoke, he had been staring at the inkstone. It wasn't until a long time later that he gently caressed it with his hands.His expression showed that he loved it so much that he couldn't bear to let it go.After that, Oogway said to the maid, "Open this too."Hearing his words, the maid opened the secon

There was a cold and determined look in his eyes. Confirming that he wouldn't say it, I wouldn't force him further.Moreover, I knew well that I couldn't control what they were going to do.What I could do was to protect Bryan well in case he would get hurt.I nodded lightly, "Okay. Then I'll go and accompany Bryan."As soon as I intended to open the door, Dave directly pulled me from behind with force. I was caught off guard and fell backward.The next second, I directly sat in Dave's arms.My face turned red. And I said, "No." I struggled to get up. However, Dave restrained me firmly in his arms and placed his other hand on my waist. Holding my waist with both hands, he said to me, "Turn around.""No. I'm leaving.""You can't." Dave refused.I closed my eyes, thinking about Oogway's words and my own identity.Although I wanted to be closer to Dave, I couldn't do it with my identity.I was Oogway's fiancee. Regardless of the excuse, the identity, or the reason. I made up my mind,

It was night. Even so, I could clearly feel Oogway kept staring at me closely with his pair of profound eyes.Oogway patted me on the shoulder and left.After he left, Bryan, who had been following Dave, suddenly ran over, "Mom, let's set off fireworks together!""Ah... Okay." I nodded.At this moment, Jamin, who had been standing outside all this while, turned around and entered the room.In the blink of an eye, only the three of us were outside the house.We set off most of the fireworks. By the time it was 1 a.m., Bryan was so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyes. Thus, we stopped setting off the fireworks.The maid took the fireworks into the room.Holding Bryan in my arms, I said to Dave, "Then we will go back."After that, I turned around, intending to ask the driver to drive us back, only to be suddenly pulled by Dave. Then, I heard his magnetic voice, "Stay here tonight."My heart thumped."Being here without Oogway.. Won't that mean..."In fact, I didn't want to leave a
