It was pay day today. Kim had already repeatedly told me early this morning that I should treat her to a meal after getting payed.

In order to not let her wait, I got off work a bit earlier than usual which rarely happened.

As soon as I walked out of the office building, a man in a suit came over and said politely, "Hello, Miss Defiant. I am Mr. Mitaka's driver. He asked me to pick you up."

It was closing time and people around me looked at me with strange eyes.

For a moment, I was in a trance, "Mr. Mitaka? Dave Mitaka? Why would he send someone to pick me up?"

The driver explained, "The Chairman wants to see you, that is, Mr. Dave's grandfather."

Thinking of the phone call from a month ago, I felt repulsion in my heart and also feared that Dave would insult me in front of his grandfather. However, I had no choice but to go.

Helplessly, I followed the driver into the car.

The driver took me to the DIOR Department Store first and gave me a Black Amex bank card, asking me to go in and b

    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 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

    I leaned on Oogway and played with my cell phone for a while before falling asleep.Located in the city center, Jamin's house was surrounded by residential communities. As soon as it was midnight, the sounds of firecrackers rang from all directions!I opened my eyes. Beside me, Oogway sat there with the same posture as he had before I went to bed.He looked at me. "You up?""Yes." I nodded and glanced at the watch on my cell phone, only to find that it had been midnight.Glamourous fireworks was on outside the window.Looking at Bryan sleeping soundly, I somewhat couldn't bear to wake him up.Oogway seemed to sense my hesitation and said with a smile, "Wake him up. It happens once a year. Otherwise, he will blame you."I nodded and patted Bryan's shoulder lightly. Putting my face close to his ear, I whispered, "Baby, get up, they've started setting off the firecrackers."Hearing my words, Bryan seemed to have been awakened by an alarm.He immediately opened his eyes and sat up from t

    Oogway wasn't in a hurry. He slowly opened his mouth, "In fact, speaking of the dealership of this drug, across the whole country, there is at least...""Well, she was slow witted. My parents took her girl away and abandoned her, stimulating her in an instant. Then she was more out of her mind and scratched my mother's face, making it covered with bruises! So my parents sent her to a mental hospital!"James couldn't hold it in any longer and blurted it out in an instant.It turns out that my mother had experienced these. Then who on earth is my irresponsible father? According to what Kelvin said, my mother was beautiful and smart. When she left European Architecture, she was a normal person. How come she went crazy after returning to the City?I asked, "Which mental hospital did they sent her to?"James waved his hand, "I sincerely don't know this. That's all I know. I've said everything that I can say. As for the others, I have no idea about them.""Okay." Oogway nodded, "I'll ask m
