The CEO's Switched Bride Chapter 175
While she was thinking about how to apologize, Troy Benjamin spoke up, "In fact, she's right. I'm not Troy Benjamin."As Trish heard his words, her eyes lit up. Troy Benjamin added, "My real name is Kelvin Drake. If you study European Architecture, you should know my last name."After he said that, Trish's face changed.Drake?Is there such a surname?I indeed haven't heard of it. However, Trish nodded dully, "I know. I know.""Well, since we have mentioned this today, I will elaborate on it." Kelvin sat in his own position.He sat there and looked at us below, saying, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Kelvin Drake and I'm the 79th successor of European Architecture ."As soon as he said that, all the people present burst into an uproar.It wasn't because Trish's design was bad. It was because she had pretended to be an expert in the presence of an authentic expert.Trish quickly said, "Mr. Kelvin, I'm sorry. I was wrong. I'm indeed not good at design. I'll work harder next time."

I turned around and saw Dave standing on the corridor in casual clothes.Dee was standing next to him.My head was dizzy so I couldn't see their expressions clearly.I was standing on the edge of the swimming pool with Kelvin's help. He didn't let go of me until he dragged me to the lounge chair.Kelvin stood beside me then I heard the sound of Dave coming over.He walked over and said, "Get me a bath towel.""No need. I, I'm alright." I quickly got up and said to Kelvin, "Mr. Kelvin, thank you."Kelvin was about to walk away. He stared at me for two seconds before saying, "No need."At this time, Dee had taken out a bath towel from Kelvin's room and said to Kelvin, "Mr. Kelvin, I'll use this towel first. I'll ask the maids to bring you a new set right away."Kelvin waved his hand and walked into his room.Dave took the bath towel over and placed it on me.He reached out his hand to touch my forehead and then my face. After that, he bent down and directly picked me up in his arms."Yo

I watched him walk out. I picked up the boxer briefs he didn't have time to wear and pushed him out of my room as soon as he opened the door. Then I threw his pants out, after that, I closed the door.I shouted behind the door, "Get out! You can get out now!"Dave didn't come back that night. I felt like I was a joke.I was ridiculous and pathetic.During the late night, I was famished so I went to the Mart.As soon as I entered the mart, I saw Kelvin.Thinking of what had happened during the day, I was a little embarrassed. I went up to him and said, "Mentor Kelvin, thank you for earlier."He looked at me, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Others call me Senior or Master. Ordinary people call me Mr. Kelvin but why did you call me Mentor Kelvin? I haven't taught you anything yet."His words stunned me in an instant.I, who knew he was powerful, just called him so casually. I didn't expect him to be so serious about it.It was said that Kelvin had a weird temper so I quickly said, "I'm

Lita looked at me awkwardly, "You... Don't joke with me.""I'm not joking. Isn't that what your plan was? It's a pity you had to arranged such a big scene of drugging me. It turned out to be Dave who detoxified me. Hehe!"I was guessing the drug had something to do with Lita. I was trying to provoke her and make her admit it.Lita looked at me and squeezed her dress hard. After a while, she said, "Reed, you misunderstood. I don't know what you're talking about.""You don't know? Then forget it." I stared at Lita who was sitting on the sofa and said faintly, "That sofa is one of the places Dave and I made love. As you lie on it, didn't you smell anything strange?"As soon as I finished speaking, Lita stood up quickly, "Reed Defiant! You..." She couldn't help but look at me as if she were a timid sheep, "Even if you've slept with him several more times, so what? As long as I want to, I can hold him firmly in my hands at all times."Lita's words indicated she had admitted she was preten

I was a little confused by his words.Could it be that Kelvin was intending to...?He wanted to acknowledge me as his disciple?No matter how boldly I thought, I dared not think so but what he had said just now seemed to indicate he did have such an intention.When I was wondering whether I should ask him or not, I heard the sounds of footsteps behind me. Then I heard Dee call out from behind me, "Mr. Kelvin."I looked back and saw Dee walking towards us from not far away.Not far behind him was Dave.From such a distance, I could even see the displeasure on his face even with a hint of anger.Beside me, Kelvin chuckled and said, "Well, he is coming."Dee came over, looked at me and asked with some embarrassment, "Miss Defiant, why are you here?""I'm here to see Mentor Kelvin off." I said politely.At this time, Dave had already walked to my side. He glanced at me coldly with his dark eyes and asked the same question, "Why are you here?"I gave him the same answer."It is the duty o

The atmosphere was a little awkward. I asked, "Ms. Teresa, are you buying the apartment for investment?""Investment? No, I have a..." Teresa paused and seemed to think about it for a moment before saying, "I have a cousin who has been abroad for a long time. In recent years, he has plans of returning home from abroad. Fearing that he won't have a suitable place to live when he comes back, I wanted to get him a place."Fearing that her cousin wouldn't find a suitable place, she wanted to find him one.Her tone sounded so casual that it didn't seem like she was talking about an apartment that would cost her tens of thousands of dollars.Even so, it was her business. What I had to do was to get more than 10 million dollars in my pocket.We soon arrived at my apartment.Teresa saw the leather suitcase in the corner and asked, "Miss Defiant, are you moving out?""No! I'll move out in a few days."At first, I thought Teresa would mind that I was still living here. Unexpectedly, she said,

"How about this?" Comfort looked at Thomas and said, "Transfer Mom to a hospital at Second Best Level where the price of ICU won't be so high. Then we can hire her a guardian with higher pay."Hehe.They already made a good plan.I would pay for the hospitalization fee and they would pay for the care fees.The monthly pay of a caretaker was only two days' cost of the hospitalization expenses but I had no choice. I didn't want Judith to be stripped off the breathing machine so early.Thomas agreed with Comfort's idea.The two of them immediately made a phone call and transferred Judith to a Second Best Level Hospital.With expenses of ICU and others counting together, it would cost about 5 thousand dollars a day if Judith was transferred there.Compared with the expenses of the first Hospital, the expenses there were much more affordable.The next day, they transferred Judith.I went to check on the situation of the new hospital and found that the conditions indeed couldn't be on par w

After the coffee we had ordered was served, Thomas said, "Reed, your grandmother was transferred to a Second Best Level Hospital. She will only cost you more than a few thousand dollars a month. You surely have a lot of money left in your pocket after you sold the apartment, don't you?"I immediately understood why he had come to me humbly.He was lusting for my money."Enough!" I pushed the coffee in front of me and took out a banknote of 100 dollars from my bag. I placed it on the table and added, "I will reserve the rest of the money for Grandma's hospitalization fees. I won't lend it to anyone. I won't even touch it."After that, I got up and left.Thomas chased after me to the door, "Reed, I'm not asking you for help. I'm borrowing the money from you. My company is in need of capital recently..."I refused firmly, "I'm sorry, I can't help you.""Reed.""Mr. Thomas, you'd better call me Reed Defiant. You cut off your relationship with me. Have you forgotten about it?"As soon as a

My heart pounded against my ribs as I took a shaky breath, trying to steady my emotions. But as I turned to face the guests, my family, my friends, and most of all, the man standing just a few steps away, my voice trembled with overwhelming emotion."This isn’t just Kim’s wedding," I finally said, my voice thick with unshed tears. "It’s mine too."Gasps filled the air, followed by a stunned silence. Then, all at once, the crowd erupted into excitement.I heard my mother’s joyful sob, saw Kelvin blinking in surprise before his face broke into a smile. Kim squeezed my hand, winking, and Desmond chuckled beside her. But my eyes weren’t on them.They were on Dave.He stood motionless for a moment, his eyes locked on mine. Then, with the help of his crutches, he began to walk toward me, determination in every step.When he finally reached my side, he lifted a hand to my face, his thumb brushing against my cheek.“You’re crying,” he murmured, his voice thick with emotion.I laughed shakily,

Dave surely wouldn't say no to Desmond.Seeing that Dave had personally agreed, Desmond couldn't be more joyful.Hearing Desmond's words, Dave lowered his eyes slightly. Falling silent for a moment, he didn't promise Desmond immediately.I knew what he was hesitant about.In his current situation, it was difficult for him to stand on stage. He might need a crutch.As I was about to refuse on behalf of him, Dave spoke first, "Okay, no problem.""Then I'm leaving. I won't bother you two anymore!"Hearing that Dave had agreed, Desmond left.After Desmond left, I said with some concern, "Desmond is one of us. If you are in a difficult position, tell him directly.""I know." Dave looked up at the rehabilitation equipment on the side and said, "But we agreed on this a long time ago. I can't let him down."It made sense. Desmond had always been by Dave's side.They two should have agreed on this early.Dinner was a quiet affair, but in the best way possible. The kind where words weren’t alw

Dave and I lived in the town for a while.When we lived together, Dave would make love to me against my will with the excuse that it would be conducive to the recovery of his legs.Frequently, we didn't go to bed until the middle of the night. I was so exhausted that I didn't even know when he had gone to rehabilitation in the morning.One and a half months later, Dave's legs had recovered to a great extent. He could walk for a short distance without a crutch.On the last day of the rehabilitation training, the doctor told us in the rehabilitation room that Dave could return to the City, saying that he could finish the rest of the rehabilitation training at home.Hearing this, Dave bought flight tickets on the same day.We went back and packed up our things before setting off.The next night, Dave and I landed at the airport.After going back home, Dave and I didn't get Bryan back to our side for the time being. Dave had been quite busy because of his work.He worked overtime after m

Teresa walked gracefully and looked at us, asking, "What happened?"She looked as if she was watching a good show. From this, I knew that she surely had been eavesdropping inside for a while and that she surely had known what had happened by this time.Having been in contact with Teresa for a long time, these people were naturally close to her.Hearing her question, everyone told her what had happened.Teresa looked at me with an unconcealable smile on her face, saying to me, "People in this town are clean and simple. How can you act the same way as you did in the City? You are a discredit here.""He gave me the key." I defended myself.Teresa surely wasn't convinced as well, saying, "Even if you are lying, you have to make up convincing lies. Everyone knows that you and I are both kept outside here. He probably doesn't even know that you are here. How would he give you the key?"As Teresa spoke, she had a smug look in her eyes.Sure enough, after she finished her words, the ones arou

Picking up my cutlery and taking a bit of rice, I said, "I'm leaving tonight. I'll come see you every night in the future.""Why?"Hearing this, Dave was a little puzzled.I chuckled, "I won't tell you! Anyway, don't let others know that I've been here."I didn't tell him why. However, Dave was so smart. Seeing my expression, he immediately said, "You want to keep her in the dark, right?"I nodded.Since Teresa had put in so much effort to put on a show, I naturally wouldn't let her act in vain.He nodded.However, when I left, I didn't climb over the wall again. Dave found someone and gave me a key to the back door locked all year round.I left through the backdoor.The next morning, I went to the hospital as usual.Teresa wore a blue and white dress with knee length today.Sitting on the opposite side of the road, she stared at the hospital door in a daze.When I went over, Teresa looked up at me and said with a hint of disdain, "I thought you were gone.""No, I didn't."There was a

A long time seemed to have passed since we made love. However, Dave was quite familiar with my body. Hooking my arms around his neck, I looked at him and said, "I want you."I rarely said so.At this moment, I knew that by seeing what I did and hearing my words, Dave could be infinitely confident.Raising his head, Dave hadunconcealable excitement in his eyes.Reaching out and pushing aside the strands of hair on my cheeks, he said, "You have me.""You have me."After he said so, the ambiguous and warm atmosphere permeated the room.By the time I opened my eyes again, day...Someone outside knocked on the door. A nurse seemed to be calling Dave to do the rehabilitation training.I looked at Dave sleeping soundly beside me with my face slightly blushed. Last night, we had been making love for a long time. Dave seemed to have inexhaustible strength. One or two hours had passed only since we went to bed.Dave, like me, heard what the nurse had said outside. Without opening his eyes, he

After I entered the room, it was dark inside with the curtains drawn. I couldn't see anything.Wondering where Dave was, I was sure that he surely had fallen asleep.I reached out to fudge around, trying to figure out the situation inside the room.All of a sudden, I ended up touching a soft and sturdy body.I was shocked.Then, I heard Dave say, "Leave quickly. Or I'll call a bodyguard."His voice was cold and emotionless.I couldn't help but shudder.I suspected that the bodyguard had betrayed me.As I was about to say something, I heard him say, "You surely know the situation of Michaelson Group well. With a phone call from me, Michaelson Group will close down tomorrow. At that time, you may not even afford to return to the City."It turned out that he mistook me as Teresa.Sensing that he was standing, I wondered whether Dave's legs had been healed."You... ""It's me."As Dave was about to speak again, I reached out and hugged him directly.While hugging him, I touched something

Kim picked up the call and spoke in surprise over the phone, "You are making an international call.""I have something to tell you." Looking at the desktop wallpaper on my computer screen, I thought for a moment before saying, "Yesterday, I learned that Teresa and Dave might have a son and that he should be about the same age as Bryan.""What?"I could strongly sense Kim's surprise over the phone so I moved the cell phone a little further away from me.Kim continued, "That's impossible. What the hell is this? Didn't he ever tell you about this?"Holding the cell phone, I shook my head, "No, I knew it yesterday. And now I'm in a mess.""Well, regarding this..." Kim said over the phone, "In my opinion, you should ask Dave about this by yourself. After all, Teresa is good at disguising herself. You don't even know whether she is telling the truth or not. Nobody knows that she, who is a high ranking socialite in the City before, is a shrew in private, right? You'd better confirm with Dave

I looked left and right.The wall guarding the hospital was made up of ordinary brick. It was only more than two meters high. In fact, the wall couldn't be of any deterring effect at all.After thinking for a moment, I said to the bodyguard, "Since you won't let me in, I'll go. Please don't tell Dave that I've come here, okay?"The bodyguard didn't know that I probably would make other moves.If he knew, I wouldn't have any chances at all.Looking at me, he hesitated for a moment and nodded.Fearing that he promised me nominally, I put my palms together devoutly and pleaded, "Please don't tell him.""Well, I won't."The bodyguard promised once again.Only after that was I rest assured.Seeing that I came out, Teresa stood at the door and looked sarcastic, "I originally thought you would be greatly respected. It turned out that you were kept outside as well."Looking at Teresa, I wasn't angry, asking, "Miss Teresa, you are a socialite in the City. I remember when we first met, you talk
