"Tell me, Haick is a very important person in my life." I deliberately said, "Otherwise, he wouldn't have called me before he died..."After a moment of silence, the police officer said, "Here's the thing. We didn't find any signs of braking on the scene of the accident."The police didn't say anything further.The phone was hung up. I stood at the door of the company, feeling a little confused.What did he mean? It wasn't an accident?"If that was the case, then was someone behind this?Could it be that there was some conflict between him and someone else in the business that caused the counterpart to intend to kill him?I knew it was useless for me to think randomly.I had to leave it to the police to investigate further.Two days later, I would leave for the finals and I didn't know how long I would be away plus I hadn't seen Judith for a long time.Now that I had time, I took a taxi and went to the Hospital.Judith, who was still in a coma was lying still in the ICU. I looked at

Thomas looked at Lita with impatience on his face, "If it were in the past, it would be fine. Now you should know more or less as to what's going on at home."Comfort mocked on the side, "That's right. How about you just let Dave pay for the expense? Anyway, such a little amount of money is just a drop in the ocean for him."At the mention of Dave, Lita looked embarrassed, "I... I'll tell him about it. But I don't think it's a good idea. After all, it's our family's business."Comfort responded, "That's right. Forget it. Let him invest the money in Defiant Group. Now Defiant Group is the place where the money is needed. We don't need to owe him a favor because of such a trivial matter."When I heard Comfort's words, I was burning with anger in my heart.Such a trivial matter?Judith's life seems to be a trivial matter to her..."I'll think of a way to get the money. I won't let you turn off Judith's support machine."All three of them looked at me with different expressions.Comfort i

Comfort didn't speak for a long time but I could hear her breathing coming from over the phone.I knew she was angry.About 30 seconds later, she said, "Tell me, what do you want?""I...""I don't have money." As soon as I opened my mouth, I was interrupted by her. "You should know the situation of Defiant Group. My brother and I are both in debt.""So you are all looking forward to Grandmother's death so you can use the inheritance to pay off the debt?"I seemed to understand why they were all looking forward to Judith's death."... No, no!" Comfort hurriedly explained, "She's your grandmother but she is my mother. I don't want her to die either but she's brain dead. We can't do anything about that."As she spoke, her voice seemed to indicate she was crying. As for whether she was crying for real or not...I had no idea."Oh..." I said meaningfully, "Don't worry. I'm not asking for money.""That's good."Comfort let out a long sigh of relief.I thought for a moment and said, "I'll pu

I took my suitcase and went to get a boarding pass then I went though security check.After I got on the plane, I found out that the whole first class cabin was reserved by Dave.The bodyguards sat apart and Dave and the young man sat together.When I walked to the economy class, I heard people around talking about Dave's identity.It made sense, usually, he would take his private plane.Seven people, including me had gotten to the final and we were lined up in the same row.I sat by the window, sitting next to a woman who seemed to be much older than me.She was wearing a plain long dress with no makeup and her straight hair was tied up. She was reading a book related to internal designing.Out of politeness, I introduced myself, "Hello, my name is Reed Defiant.""Hello, Marie Drew."She greeted me during the interval of reading."Marie Drew? You are Marie."She was Marie Drew, the Marie Drew!I was surprised and delighted to see her as she was known in the designing field as a renow

I didn't go back to my room, instead I wandered around.I had to admit, the resort was well facilitated. There was a swimming pool, a small sized golf course, and a circus arena. However, since there was no audience, the circus arena was closed.I looked around and glanced at my watch. Seeing that it was past 10 p,m., I headed back to my room.As I was walking back, the weather suddenly changed and it began raining. The sky which was filled with stars a few minutes ago was now cloudy. In a blink of an eye, it was raining cats and dogs.I rushed back inside.Just as I was about to rush to the door of my room, I collided with someone who had rushed out of the corner. Her head hit right at my elbow which I had covered my head with."Ah!"She fell to the ground."I'm sorry." I apologized as I took a closer look at her. It turned out to be Marie. I called out, "Marie."Marie raised her head and saw me. She, who didn't say anything, wanted to leave.I grabbed her hand and said, "It's rai

As I layed on the bed, the scene where Dave stood in front of my door with an umbrella lingered on my mind.He was afraid I will be angry if Marie left. His anxious expression popped up in my mind constantly. It was as if he indeed cared about me.It was unknown how long I had been thinking about it when I fell asleep.When I woke up, I felt dizzy and a little hoarse in my throat. I was feeling uncomfortable.My first reaction was that I had fever. I wanted to drink some water but when I reached out for the cup by the bedside, I failed.Bang! The cup fell to the ground, startling me.I felt sore all over and everything seemed to have turned blank. It was impossible to get up. I struggled for a while and then gave in to the darkness.In a daze, I felt a piercing cold sensation on my forehead. I frowned. The next second, I felt a pair of warm lips sticking to my mouth. Then, warm water was poured into my mouth…"Ahem!""Ahem!""Ahem!""Ahem!"I coughed hard and slightly opened my heav

Marie was a tender woman. She had long black hair, making her a little old fashioned. Such a woman would always look self restraint and she would not easily reveal her feelings but at this moment, Marie was looking at Dave. As a woman, I understood the glow in her eyes instantly...She was looking at Dave so she didn't notice me looking at her but Dave noticed that I was looking at Marie.He turned around and saw Marie was still there so he said, "You should go back first. Thank you for your help just now.""Ah..." Marie came to her senses, "No need."After that, she turned around and left.I noticed that when she spoke just now, her face was slightly red.Dave didn't notice any of these. He was fully concentrated on me.He then turned around and continued to feed me the porridge.I stretched out my hand from the quilt and said, "I'll do it by myself.""No, I'll do it."Dave's attitude was surprisingly tough at this moment."..I'm hungry. I can drink it faster if I do it by myself."

Marie stood at the door as I rushed into the room at lightning speed.I picked up my cell phone, glanced at Dave who was still sitting at the dining table with a pale look on his face, then ssaid, "Mr. Mitaka, Marie and I will go out first. Please help me close the door when you leave."After that, I pulled Marie away.After walking for a while, we sat down beside a small pavilion at the side.The pavilion was supported with a few pieces of wood and a white gauze curtain was hung around it. As we sat inside, the breeze blew gently, making the gauze curtain sway along with the wind.Marie asked, "Mr. Mitaka is so good to you. Why are you running from him?""I don't deserve it."I lowered my head."I think you don't know how to cherish the blessings endowed on you." Marie squinted at me with some envy in her eyes, "In the past, our colleagues often talked about how handsome Mr. Mitaka was, how rich he was, and how happy the woman marrying him would be. At that time, I didn't think that

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
