I sat back on the bed and kept a distance from Dave, "I was kidnapped by Lita yesterday.""Kidnapped?" Dave frowned slightly when he heard me. He reached for his phone as if he was planning on asking someone to investigate."Wait a minute." I quickly stopped him and said in a pleading tone, "Let me finish my words first."I told him Lita had kidnapped me yesterday and she had asked a few foreign men to rape me, one of whom had AIDS.It was probably because of my vanity that I didn't tell him she had poured acid for my face.I just said my face was injured.The more I said, the more uglier Dave's expression was. He clenched his hands tightly with the blue veins popping out more obviously.After I finished my words, I added, "When I woke, my lower part..., I didn't feel anything like I had been raped. I dare not take risks and I should take the anti exposure drug however...""However...?"Dave got up and walked towards me step by step.He wanted to tell me with his behavior that he di
Dave bent over to kiss my neck and pressed his forehead against my mask...Hiss..."It hurts!"I took a deep breath.Dave was so scared that he got up immediately, "What's wrong?""My face is in pain." I held my face with my hands with an aggrieved look on my face.I was telling the truth.Dave seemed to have realized something and looked at me with a serious look on his face, "What on earth is going on?"I was silent. I didn't have the courage to tell Dave my face probably had been ruined.If he knew, I wondered what would happen.I didn't even know what was under the bandage myself.Just as I was hesitant, Dave's cell phone rang. He took out his cell phone, glanced at it then he walked out.About five minutes later, he came back but this time, behind him was a man.The man was tall but thin.As soon as he came in, he looked around, "Where is the laptop? Let me have a look at it."I was stunned for a moment.The man wanted to take my laptop without even introducing himself.Dave in
Dave walked to me, held me in his arms, and wiped the tears on my cheeks with his hand, "Don't cry. It's not the end yet. Don't worry. My people are looking into it.""But, what if, what if...""There's no what if. You'll be fine and so will our child."Dave patted my back.I knew he was comforting me.When I was choked with sobs, Dave's cell phone rang again. He answered and listened on with the look on his face getting gloomier and gloomier.After Dave hung up, I controlled my emotions and asked, "What's wrong?"Dave looked at me and frowned. After a moment of silence, he shook his head, "Nothing."No, something is wrong. Dave surely was a poker faced person when he was at work but at this time, he couldn't even control his emotions. It meant it was a serious one.I reached out my hands and placed it around Dave's waist, pressed my face against his lower abdomen and said, "Tell me the truth. What happened?"Dave was silent for a while. "The police found the bodies of those foreign m
Although I didn't see the video clearly just now, I realized something..."It is not me in the video just now. It's Lita Defiant!"Although the person in the video had the same hairstyle and hair color as me, it was Lita Defiant!I suddenly remembered Lita was wearing a wig at that time. When I took off her wig, she was wearing a hair net."I know you can't accept it but I can tell you and her apart." Dave's tone was firm and decisive.I was anxious as I said, "Can't I even tell myself apart from her?"Dave looked at me and seemed to realize that his tone wasn't good. He took a deep breath and lowered his voice, "I know you can't accept it but I don't mind. We have long days ahead in the future. You are Mrs. Mitaka and we will have children in the future. No matter how many children you want to deliver, we will have as many as you want, okay?"After he said that, he wanted to hold my hands."No. Don't!" I quickly withdrew my hands, jumped out of bed, and tried my best to explain to h
Griffin looked at us with surprsie. He seemed to understand. He sighed and said, "Well, since you have made up your mind, I won't bother with this matter anymore but regarding this illness, you need to have a check up every two weeks for two consecutive months. If you are negative, it is likely you didn't get infected."Two months? That's a tough process.When I was full of agitation, Dave suddenly stood still, looked at Griffin, and asked, "What is the probability of the spread of this disease?"Isn't it 100%?I always thought it was 100%."Well..." Griffin lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, "Generally speaking, the probability of a man passing it onto a female is higher than that of a female passing it onto a male."It was probably because I was sure I hadn't been raped by the foreign men that I didn't think the probability was high.Dave nodded.Griffin looked at my face, "Where are you going? How about you let them tend to the wound on her face now so it'll be more conven
By the time I woke up, it was bright as day.I sensed the fragrance of laundry detergent emitting from my patient gown...Could it be that my clothes had been washed?I was a little confused. As I was about to get up, I felt dizzy. For a moment, I felt something rolling in my stomach...It is a symptom of pregnancy or something?I had suffered retching when I had been pregnant last time but the situation this time seemed to be different from that last time.When I was thinking about it, I heard the servant outside talking, "Sir, are you all right?"Is there something wrong with Dave?I pushed the door open, put up with my discomfort, and followed the voice to the study. I saw Dave sitting at his desk and working in front of his computer.It was unknown whether it was probably because of the glow of the computer but Dave's face looked particularly pale and he looked haggard.When he saw me, he immediately stood up and said, "You are awake.."Looking at him, I inexplicably felt a litt
Dave asked the servant to help me get three more pills. I pretended to drink them down but the pills were pressed under my tongue.With the excuse of not feeling well, I went back to the room. The first thing I did was to go to the toilet to spit out the pills and flush them off.I stood in front of the mirror and looked at ugly me wearing the mask. I thought of Dave.Does he love me?He probably loves me a little but he doesn't trust me. He killed my child..Sob!Sob!..................In the following week, Dave worked from home. We took the medicine together once every 12 hours.The first time I was given the medicine, I was in a deep sleep for the whole day and since I took the anti exposure drugs for real the previous time twice, I sleep for two days with little wakes. That was why I had felt uncomfortable after I had gotten up that day but after that, I didn't take the medicine so I didn't feel uncomfortable anymore.In contrast to me, Dave was taking the medicine seriously
Griffin came in and asked, "Are you done using my cell phone?"My heart trembled then I said, "I'll be done with it in a minute."As I spoke, I texted Oogway, "Don't reply to my text." then I quickly deleted all the texts before returning the cell phone to Griffin.Seeing me like this, Griffin teased, "What's wrong with you? Were you texting your lover?"I immediately became nervous and shook my head, "No."Griffin put away his cell phone and chuckled, "It's just a joke. Don't mind me. I think Dave is indeed a good man. You surely know this better than I do.""Well." I said dully.Was Dave a good man for me?He probably was but it was a pity that I, who had gone through so much, didn't want him anymore.When everything was done, I went out.Dave was waiting for me at the entrance. His face was pale. When he stood up, he trembled slightly. Looking at him, Griffin frowned slightly. "The anti exposure drugs have different effects on everyone. Some suffer great side effects while others
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
