The manager asked the lady what was going on.The lady said there was so many customers in the shop just now, when she turned back, she found that the bracelet was gone. She was so scared that she cried as she searched the shop and couldn't find it.Although the lady didn't say that it was me who took it, the fact that the bracelet was found in my bag had explained everything. I still explained to her, "I didn't take this. I don't know how it ended up in my bag."The manager glanced at me and said disdainfully, "Explain it to the police!"It was not until now that I really panicked!'I'm going to see Dave's grandfather with him today. If I get involved with the police because of this matter and get delayed, it is unknown how Dave's grandfather will think of me!' I thought, really scared.The manager asked the security guard to take me to the office on the first floor of the mall and then waited for the police to arrive.I struggled and didn't want to go with them.Lita stood aside an
The next morning, I took the morning off and went to the police station where I was charged with stealing.The answer they gave me was that it was a misunderstanding and that the case was closed so the monitor was not checked.I refused to deal with it this way. My reputation was at stake.With my repeated request as well as the involvement of Dave yesterday, the police dared not neglect me. An officer then headed to the mall with me.We found the manager and requested for the surveillance video from yesterday. The manager immediately agreed only for us to find out that the monitor was broken!The manager then said in an exaggerating tone, "Oh, why is the monitor broken? Get someone to repair it immediately."At that moment, I understood that Lita might have known I would come back to check the surveillance video.Of course, the monitor couldn't be repaired. The so called repairer failed to get it back on after a long 'fix'.I didn't want to give up. After the police left, I went to
This time, I took this matter seriously. I began reading my period calendar and found that it had been more than a month since my last period. Moreover, I didn't take any measures when he made love to me on the wedding night.All of a sudden, a bad feeling arose in my heart.I asked Kim to go to the hospital with me and registered for the Department of Gynecology.When the result came out, my worse fear came to pass. I was pregnant for over 5 weeks."How could this be..." I looked at the result in front of me, feeling extremely complicated.Kim was different. She patted me on the shoulder and laughed, "Good job. Reed, it's said that a man's mood will be different if there is a child."'Never will I love you in my life.'As I stared at the result on the test sheet, Dave's words were reverberating in my ears, making me extremely complicated and sour.I didn't know what to do."Lita Defiant, what a small world."While I was lost in thoughts, Kim who was beside me called out the name of
I didn't know how long I had been sleeping. It wasn't until someone patted me on the shoulder that I woke up and said subconsciously, "I'm sorry, I'm getting to work now.""Puff." As soon as I finished speaking, I heard a man's chuckle next to my ear. When I turned around, I found that someone was standing behind me and he looked a little familiar...Staring blankly at him for a few seconds, I called out, "Haick?" I rubbed my sleepy eyes as I recognized him.He was Haick Grimm, a senior of mine at the same academy when I was in college. He was a well known genius among us. The lecturers spoke about his deeds every day. He was also the person I admired the most when I was in college.It was also him who had introduced me to do the internship here.I got up and asked happily, "What are you doing here?""I want to ask you the same question. Why are you here?" Haick raised his hand and helped me sort out the messy hair on my cheek, smiling gently and beautifully.I was a little embarrasse
Today, I had an appointment with my client at 5 o'clock. At about 4:30 pm, I packed my documents and headed for the entrance.As soon as I came out of the company's door, I saw Haick waving at me in a white sports car. I ran over and he said first, "You are going to see your client, right? Let's go. It happens that I am going the same way. I'll see you off."I knew that he was lying to me but I still got into his car.After getting in the car, I complained to him. "You are the general manager. Why didn't you tell me earlier?""What's the point of telling you?" Haick drove off while adding with a smile at the corner of his mouth, "No matter who I am, you are always my junior sister."His words sounded warm without any sense of distance.Soon, we arrived at the residential quarter where I had agreed to meet my client. I thanked him and got off the car. After watching the car leave, I entered the residential quarter in front of me.The project in my hand was related to the decoration o
After Dave left, I rested on the ground for a long time. Then I sent a message to apologize to Haick before heading upstairs.After I went upstairs, Kim was busy packing up her luggage. She said she was leaving to be trained abroad and would be away for a while.She patted my little belly and teased, "When I come back, you will have become a big bellied woman."I smiled bitterly.I secretly decided that I would leave the City when my belly became somewhat bigger................After Kim left, I hadn't seen Haick for a whole week. I was not sure whether he was angry or not.That week, due to working overtime and serious morning sickness, I was so weak that I had to go to the hospital to have a nutritious injection.After I finished a series of examinations, I went back to the doctors office.As soon as I entered the office, I heard a pregnant woman asking the doctor, "Doctor, how is my child?""My suggestion is that you should take a good rest." The doctor replied.I stood behind and
My reaction probably was beyond his imagination. Dave looked at me inquiringly for a long time and said, "Let's wait until the baby is born."We were both silent all the way.Dave wanted to send me back to his villa but I told the driver to send me back to Kim's address instead.Seeing that the car was about to arrive at Kim's house, I touched my flat belly and couldn't help asking, "Dave, what if I'm pregnant as well?""Abort it!" Dave answered without hesitation. In the end, he added in a cold tone, "You took the medicine last time. Never should you intend to have an illegitimate child to entertain my grandpa."I curled up the corner of my lips and said with a sad smile, "The contraceptive pills won't always be 100% successful."My statement seemed to make Dave nervous. He looked at my belly and asked, "Are you pregnant?""Take a guess." I looked at him with a calm face as I didn't reveal the answer to him.Dave looked at me and did not answer but there wasn't any joy on his face.
Haick didn't say anything when he saw Dave that day but he understood something when he saw Dave and Lita today.He took the initiative to help me out, "I just came back to the City and I didn't bring many clothes with me. I didn't have any friends so, I had to ask my junior sister to help me choose some clothes."I looked at him gratefully."Oh," Lita replied meaningfully and acted like a spoiled child to Dave as she said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean that."Dave just said, "It's okay." But his face didn't look good.After the meal, I was going to leave with Haick. I didn't expect that Dave would suddenly stop me, "Your husband is here, are you going to leave with another man?"Both Lita and I were stunned by his words.She looked at Dave and shouted coyly, "Dave..."Dave ignored her and continued, "I'll ask the driver to send you back."His tone was not up for negotiation.I dared not refuse him.In the end, I had no choice but to take Dave's car alone and head back to the company.By
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
Eunice lowered her head and kept silent, as if she was thinking.I didn't say anything more. I took the cup of fruit tea in front of me and took a sip.It was sour and sweet.When I put down the teacup, Eunice said, "Though I want to help you, it's just that his heart is no longer with me. He probably doesn't care about whether I live or die.""It's not like that." I looked at Eunice and said firmly, "Oogway has you in his heart, but he doesn't realize it, or... he is deceiving himself. What he needs is a process to know his heart."Eunice slightly nodded. "But that doesn't mean that he will give in to me.""I know." I smiled bitterly. "I'm sorry. In fact, I have already told him about your illness. I hope he can see his heart clearly. I have no choice."Eunice looked at me without saying a word.There was only silence.I said again, "I'm sorry." Eunice finally looked up at me and smiled. "If he let you go because of me and come back to me, then I am willing to be used by you."Euni
After hearing the name clearly, Oogway's eyes immediately showed some indifference. He folded his legs, put his hands on his knees, looked at me, and said in a very alienated voice, "So what?"I was not beaten back by his state. I continued, "Eunice got uterus cancer."When I said those words, Oogway frowned slightly.Then, I added another two words, "Stage 2."Oogway's expression obviously relaxed a little but he said only one word, "Oh."Seeing that he was relaxed, I hurriedly continued, "But when I saw her today, her assistant told me that she was not willing to be treated, because once treated she might not be able to conceive. She has always held the hope of getting pregnant.""That's her business."Unwilling to let it go, I continued, "Then have you ever thought about the fact that for an excellent woman like Miss Eunice, there must be a lot of men who wanted to be with her, even with her legs were disabled. But has been single all these years?""That's her business."Oogway sa
Brianna snorted at my oath.But it didn't mean that she didn't believe what I said.She looked at me with a serious look."What are you going to do then? Are you really going to marry him?""I don't know." I shook my head and said, "But no matter what, I can't watch Bryan die.""I..."I looked at Brianna. "You are also a mother. You know how it feels. I can not give up Bryan."Hearing this, Brianna sighed heavily."Oogway, Oogway, to be honest, we have been on guard against him all the time, but we didn't expect that he took a shot at you."I looked at Brianna and said seriously, "Auntie, I really love Dave. I hope to be with him for the rest of my life. I believe he loves Bryan and me as well. But I may not be able to be with him in this lifetime. If you two hate me, I won't blame you.""Alas!" Brianna sighed again. "I know my child best. He really loves you deeply. If you marry Oogway, he will take you back by all means necessary.""I will be done with him." I clasped my hands toget
Halfway through the dinner, I was tired. I went to the big sofa in the corner of the hall to rest. I stayed for a while and headed to the restroom.When I came out, a woman's scream came from the corridor!I was so frightened that I thought something happened, so I walked over quickly.I found that there was a baby hypertension room. When I was about to push the door and go in, a pleasant male voice came from inside."Don't you like this excitement?"It was Bleak.Anita.Actually I didn't have a habit of eavesdropping, but because the other side was them, I couldn't help but stand a little longer.I heard Anita say shyly, "But if you don't lock the door, in case others think there is no one inside, they will come in directly...""Then you should shout louder, and let them know that there are people inside." Bleak's voice was mixed with gasps.What they were doing speaks for itself.I was wondering what kind of deep grudge Bleak had with the Mitaka Family.Even a women like Anita, who
