I took the gift upstairs.

To be honest, this was the first time I'll be seeing Kim after my face had been disfigured.

Knock!

Knock!

Knock!

I knocked on the door a few times.

The door opened in less than three seconds. The woman inside opened her arms and hugged me, saying, "Oh, I haven't seen you for a long time. I missed you so much."

She looked down at the two gifts in my hands and said with a smile, "I said you didn't need to prepare gifts for me but you are still so considerate."

As she spoke, she took the two gifts over first, looked up at me with a mask on, and said, "Oh, how come you are so fully armed at my home? Sure enough, you look more and more like a rich lady."

As Kim was talking to herself, she reached out to take off my mask with one hand and before I could realize what had happened....

Kim, who originally had a joyful expression on her face, suddenly stopped smiling.

A second later, she became surprised, asking, "What's wrong with your face?"

"It's a long story."

This started out as a good story but it just seems like it’s going in circles. Same scenario…Reed gets humiliated and abused over and over. Dave and her family continue to mistreat her. There is never any justice for her. When does it end?

    "Aren't you with Dave? You told me a fairy tale whose plots seemed to only happen in a novel. Judging from the current situation, could it be that the whole story was made up by you?"Kim was hot tempered. Her words stabbed right into my heart.I suddenly realized I seemed to have been played around by Dave again.In such a short time, he had won me over easily. Could it be that it was because of this that he didn't cherish me?Thinking of what he said last night, I even began to doubt whether he had ever thought of marrying me.It was Kim's birthday today and I couldn't make her sad. I suppressed the sadness in my heart and said to Kim, "No, it's alright. He often contacts Teresa. It's just an ordinary meeting between them. He informed me in advance."As I said this, I took Kim's hand and wanted to walk into the cafe.Kim shook off my hand, "Reed, how come you are brainless when it comes to Dave?""No, give me your cell phone. I want to call him.""Forget it."I didn't want to call

    Kim stood up and said in an imposing manner, "I want to talk to him!"With a bitter look on his face, Desmond said, "Miss Kim, to tell you the truth, most of the ones around me can be offended at will. Only two people are exceptions. One is my father and the other is Dave.""Forget it." I didn't want to put Desmond in a difficult position either. "I will solve this problem by myself.""F**k off! If you can solve it by yourself, you would have solved it already."Kim looked at me as if she was so disappointed in me.Desmond spoke up for Dave, "Dave surely has his own reasons for doing things. Although he treated Lita well before, he treats you differently, which I can see. There surely is a reason for him to do so.""Haha." Kim looked at him and rolled her eyes at him exaggeratingly, "What if his childhood sweetheart took off her clothes, he did something good to help her solve her physiological need, right?""Well.." As soon as Desmond heard Kim's words, unexpectedly, he didn't say an

    Could it be that Kim was right? Could it be that he and Teresa had made love fiercely, which is why he is exhausted?No way.I remembered every time Dave tormented me, it was I who would be exhausted and he was always energetic.By the time I went upstairs, Dave had entered the bathroom.His suit was still on the sofa.I unconsciously picked it up and smelt it.Except for the faint smell of tobacco, there was no other scents."What's wrong? Are you checking my suit?"As I held the suit in my hands and smelled it, Dave came out of the bathroom.I threw the suit aside in a panic, looked up and saw him leaning against the door of the bathroom looking at me.The lights in the bedroom were off and he stood against the light. I couldn't see his expression clearly."No, I..."Thinking of the fact that I saw Teresa being with him during the day, I felt turbulent in my heart and didn't know what to say.Should I ask him directly?Dave came over, put his hand around my waist, and gently press

    We drove for nearly half an hour before we arrived at the Fika store near Kim's house. As soon as I went over, I saw Kim who in a red coat. She was dressed beautifully and her makeup was decent.Most of the pedestrians coming and going were all looking at her."Kim!" I ran to her and asked nervously, "What's going on?"Kim didn't look at me first.. She looked at the car behind me. After a moment of silence, she said, "I met a man on a flight before. He shamelessly asked for my phone number. I refused. He got my phone number and found my address. I was almost raped by him.""Oh my god! Did you call the police?""Not yet! He blocked me at the door of my house. I am scared to death!"I looked at her and felt that she didn't seem to be afraid at all...Before I could say anything, Kim pulled my arm and said, "Well, it's getting cold outside. Hurry up and get into the car.""Alright."At this moment, I seemed to have realized what Kim was trying to do.When Kim and I were heading in the

    Desmond walked us all the way downstairs of Kim's house and said cheekily, "Oh, Won't you invite me to have a cup of coffee upstairs?""Drink coffee in the middle of the night at my ends? Aren't you afraid of dying suddenly in your sleep?"Kim rolled her eyes at him without any intention of asking him upstairs.However, Desmond wasn't angry at all. He said, "Oh, you care about me?""Care about you? Haha, I just don't want you to come upstairs." Kim went straight to the point.Desmond wasn't taking that, "Didn't you say someone was blocking you in the corridor? What if he's still in the corridor? I'll accompany you up so I can complete my mission perfectly."All in all, Desmond wanted to know where on earth Kim was staying."Haha, I see. You are planning to become the next one to harass me, right?""How is that possible? I've always been the one to be harassed by others!""That's because others take a fancy to your money. Except for being rich, you don't have any charm."The, two of th

    The waiter asked, "What kind of soup would you want?""Double..." Desmond said."All spicy flavor." Kim said.Desmond looked at Kim and said, "Let's order Double... I can't eat spicy food.""No, it's my birthday. It's up to me." Kim didn't seem to have any intention of changing her mind.Helplessly, Desmond had no choice but to agree.Although Desmond looked like a playboy, he and Kim had a lot of common topics after they sat together. I sat next to them as if I were a third wheel.I didn't speak all, I was doing was eating.A bottle of champagne was quickly emptied. Originally, Desmond wanted to order beer but Kim directly refused and ordered several bottles of hard alcohol.I wasn't good at drinking however, Kim seemed to have drunk to her heart's content.Desmond proposed to go to a bar and Kim agreed immediately!I tried my best to persuade her but she wouldn't listen. She insisted on pulling me there along with her.We went to the bar.Desmond, who was quite generous, ordered m

    Dave looked at me and then at Bleak. Suddenly, his face became gloomy.He came straight up to me and asked impatiently, "Why are you here?""I...""Alright. Go back! I'll find someone to see you off."As I was about to explain, Dave interrupted me.As he spoke, he took out his cell phone from his pocket and said, "Send Reed away."Seeing this scene, Bleak smiled. "Mr. Mitaka, you are indeed so cruel. When she was a beauty, you hugged her in your arms. Now, she has disfigured her face and you kick her off immediately.""No, it's not like that." Dave immediately denied it, "She shouldn't have come to a place like this."As Dave spoke, his expression was cold and indifferent. His attitude even reminded me of the days when I married him on behalf of Lita back then.How come he changed his attitude so quickly?At this time, Dave's driver came up and said he was going to see me off.I wanted to maintain my dignity which was the only thing I had so I said decisively, "Mr. Mitaka, I don't nee

    "Ah""Oh, my! Don't! Baby!""Who is your baby?"Desmond and Kim's voices could be heard inside the room. Of course, I heard the sound of smashing things as well.I pressed the doorbell and in half a second, the door opened.I walked into the room. It was Desmond who opened the door for me. He was wearing trousers and a shirt. The buttons of his shirt were buttoned in the wrong way and his shirt was covered with lipstick marks..."Please come in." When Desmond saw it was me, he quickly made way for me.When I entered the room, I saw Kim on the bed wrapped in a quilt. Her clothes on the ground. Among the clothes, a dark red sweater was torn in pieces. The other clothes were in a mess as well...The messy table and sheets showed how fiercely they had made love last night."I'll go... wait in the bathroom." Desmond looked around. Without any intention to go out, he could only go to the bathroom.Without waiting for Kim to reply, Desmond ran to the bathroom.I handed the clothes to Kim.

    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,
