The CEO's Switched Bride Chapter 210
I know that besides intending to see Dave, I was worried about him.I pondered on it over and over again and said to Oogway, "Mr. Oogway, I am quite worried about Dave. Before I left, his behavior seemed a little abnormal. I am worried he will do something extreme.""Hearing you say so, I also feel his attitude at the birthday banquet wasn't normal either." Oogway nodded slightly. "I will help him. Don't worry."That afternoon, Oogway took me to the market to make purchases.I felt so great. People here didn't look at me with peculiar looks in their eyes.When we were about to leave the market, we saw an old lady sitting at the entrance with a few kinds of vegetables in front of her."How much is it?"By the time I saw the coriander, Oogway had walked up to the old woman and asked about the price.The old lady glanced at Oogway and stretched out five fingers.This price was much higher than those of other vegetables.This price couldn't be compared with that in the domestic supermarke

It wasn't until a few days later that I knew the reason Oogway has chosen to come here. There had been a serious fire in this town. Many people got injured in the fire so they went out with gauze and masks on their faces, which everyone wasn't surprised about.What's more, the doctors in town were very good at dealing with injuries after the burning.After I settled down, I went to a hospital in town. The doctor made further treatment to my face. Because of the previous treatment, the wound on my face had basically healed but I hadn't restore my face. The left and right sides of my face were uneven.I didn't need to wear a cover. With a mask only, I went out.According to the doctor, if I wanted to recover my face further, I could only do skin grafting.Skin grafting was a long process. If I wanted to do it here, I would have to stay for at least half a year.In the blink of an eye, the day before Oogway will return back home came.That day, I accompanied him to buy groceries as usu

Dave looked at me as if he had gone crazy. He pressed me on the back of the car seat. His face was very close to me as he said, "If I tell you that it's exactly because of this that I'm so overwhelmingly jealous, will you believe me?"I was stunned.Dave held me in his arms and wanted to take off my mask.Although I was used to facing Oogway, I still didn't have the courage to face Dave.I tried my best to protect my mask. Dave looked at me and sneered, "Why? You dare face him like this. Why don't you dare face me now? Are you that unwilling to trust me?""I..."Yes. I was fine with it if Oogway saw my face but I couldn't let Dave see my face. I didn't want him to see my face. I didn't want him to dislike me."Take it off.""No."I shook my head desperately. No. That was the one thing I couldn't do."Three."He began to count down and I knew what it meant.I begged him, "No, can't you just give up seeing my face?""Two.""Please.""One!"As he finished his words, he took off my ma

Dave looked at me and seemed to realize my unwillingness. He hesitated for a moment and took me into his arms, "Never mind. Forget him. I won't let you see him again in the future."His words made my heart beat faster.What did he mean by saying so?I raised my head to look at Dave, "Are you going to...""No, he is my uncle. How could I do such a thing?"As soon as he finished his words, the car also stopped.I turned my head and saw that the departure hall of the airport was next to the car. Judging from the appearance, it was the same airport which I had seen when I had arrived earlier.Dave gave the mask back to me, "Let's go. I'll take you to buy a flight ticket."With Dave by my side, I got a first class flight ticket.We boarded the plane not long after. Inside, two people were already seated in the seats next to ours. Among them, a woman was wearing a large pair of sunglasses that covered half of her face. Even so, I still felt she looked a little familiar.When I looked at h

"Lita asked me to invite you over. In fact, I had finished filming there at that time. She said it was a good time and introduced me to film another movie where I would play the leading female role. At her request, I left one of my assistants in place to meet you..."So far, she hasn't mentioned Dave yet."I didn't know what had happened after that. It wasn't until the trial began in court that Mr..." Jane glanced at Dave, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Mr. Mitaka contacted me, saying he would introduce top resources abroad to me and asked me to deny..."Speaking of this, Jane suddenly choked.She stared straight at Dave as her face turned pale. "Mr. Mitaka, I, I'm getting off the plane.""Mom!""Madam, the young master just played in the amusement section for children outside for a while."When Jane was about to head out, an old woman entered the first class with a little boy in her arms.I looked over and found that the boy was about a year old and his little face was fair as we

Dave looked at me, "I wasn't sure either at first but when I first met her, I mentioned the incident and Lita immediately told me all the details. Moreover, she was quite specific about the detail of her kneeling and kowtowing. My family members went to the hospital later so no one else knew about it except her and me."I was stunned.Dave was right. No one knew about that except for him and I.How did Lita know?I looked at Dave, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Then why do you believe it is her? Haven't you ever thought that the one who saved you is actually me and that regarding this matter, actually, it was I who had told Lita about this...""Is it you?"When Dave said these words, I could clearly see a light flashing in his eyes.It seemed to be the best answer he had been looking forward to.I looked at him and asked, "If it were me, What were you going to do?""If it were you, I would marry you. I've done so many wrongs and I took someone else as you by mistake. I'll compensa

Not long after, the kid's parents came over and pulled them away but none of them apologized.I was furious. I rushed to the front of the kid's parents and looked at them, "Apologize! Your children called me names. Apologize!""Wow! The ugly aunt is coming!"One of the little boys screamed.The child's mother didn't scold him. She looked at me and sneered, "You came out like this and I'm not blaming you for scaring my child. How come you ask me to apologize?""I agree!"Another mother next to her echoed.The children also said, "Ugly woman! Ugly woman!"The way they addressed me made me sad. As I stood there, my palms were sweating. I was just one step away from running away in fright."See? Children never lie. It's not your fault to be this ugly but it's your fault for coming out like this and scaring others."I said angrily, "People like you do not deserve to be mothers at all!"If the kids were mine, I wouldn't have educated them into someone like this.The woman shouted, "Could

I went upstairs to my old apartment. I knocked on the door but after a long time, there was still no response.It made sense. According to Teresa's words previously, it made sense why there was no one home.I looked around and curled the note into a ball then I wrapped it carefully and stucked it on the doorknob.After, I turned around and left.At the entrance, I rushed over to a stopping taxi. The passenger inside seemed to be getting off.As I was about to get in the car, I found the one sitting inside was Oogway."Reed." As soon as Oogway got out of the car, he was surprised to see me.Thinking that I was waiting for Oogway, the driver drove off after Oogway got out of the car.Oogway asked, "Why are you here? Are you looking for me?""No." I waved my hand, hesitated for a moment, and told him the truth, "The apartment I use to live in was given to me by my grandmother. Before, I sold it to pay for her medical bills. I didn't expect her to die soon. I want to buy it back now but

The next day, with Oogway having something to do, I went to see Jessica alone.I arrived at the ward. Before I could enter, through the glass at the door, I saw that the outer room of the ward had changed.The outer room, which had been previously empty, now lay a desk.On the desk, there lay writing brushes, ink sticks, paper, and inkstones.At this time, holding a brush in his hands, Kelvin was drawing on a piece of paper.With the doll in her arms, Jessica watched him on the side carefully.After standing outside for a while, I pushed the door open and went in.As soon as the door was pushed open, both of them looked at me at the same time, especially Jessica, whom I hadn't seen for two days. Looking as skinny as ever, she looked much better.Seeing me, she grinned.It meant that she remembered me.Her eyes looked clear and bright. And she didn't look like a patient at all.I walked over and held the bag in my hands, "Aunt Jessica, see what I brought to you."Without saying anythi

Soon, we arrived at the floor where Jessica's ward lay. When we went over, a nurse happened to come out of it. Upon seeing us, she greeted Oogway respectfully, "Dean Oogway.""Yes." Oogway nodded and asked, "How's Miss Jessica?"After Jessica was transferred here, Oogway completed the registration for her under the name of Jessica Drake.As for this, I didn't raise any objections about it. Because in my opinion, the Newman Family no longer regarded her as a family member.The nurse replied, "The patient has fallen asleep. I measured her temperature just now. It's normal. This afternoon, we examined her, only to find that she is seriously malnourished. She suffers from a low degree cataract in her eyes. More heinously, there are parasites inside her body. Besides..."Standing there, the nurse told us about the situation of Jessica roughly.Hearing the ins and outs, Kelvin looked serious on the side.Oogway asked, "Can we go in and have a look at her?""Yes. But she has fallen asleep. H

Kelvin spoke loudly over the phone.Moreover, it was pretty quiet inside the car. Oogway seemed to hear his words and glanced at me out of the corner of his eyes, "Is Mr. Kelvin coming over?"I nodded.Oogway immediately said, "Then I'll arrange a room for him on the top floor of the rehabilitation center.""Well, sorry to trouble you."I was grateful for Oogway's attentiveness.As we were about to arrive home. I suddenly remembered something and said to Oogway, "Can you take me somewhere?""Yes, I can." Oogway nodded.I got an address online and sent it to him.Oogway immediately turned the car around and drove there with me.As he turned the car around, he raised his hand and looked at me with some displeasure, saying, "In the future, wherever you want to go, just tell me directly. You don't have to ask my opinion first. I will always be available for you."I nodded. Only after that did I tell him where I was going.It was a light and textile market selling cloth and hand made craf

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,
