"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.

I turned around, intending to leave.Ding!Ding! DingAs soon as I took a step forward, the cell phone in my pocket rang. As expected, it was Bleak's call.I hesitated for a moment and picked it up."Hello, Miss Defiant, did you see that? How do you feel?" Bleak's frivolous voice floated out from the cell phone.I frowned slightly and said, "Mr. Bleak, if you intend to make me give up on Dave, then I'll tell you that I have given up on him. You don't have to exert so many efforts."To be honest, I was somewhat confused about why Bleak was doing this. If he wanted to use me to irritate Dave, then he was doomed to fail.Could it be that he wanted me to give up on Dave? If yes, what was his purpose?"Well, Miss Defiant, why are you angry? See, I just let you see who Dave truly is. He abandoned you last night and today, he directly turns to his childhood sweetheart. Who does he take you for? You probably are nothing to him."Bleak said with a smile in his voice..."Well, I know. Thank yo

"Miss Defiant?"When I looked up at them unexpectedly, Teresa saw me.She called out to me.Dave looked at me as well and moved slightly. He looked so terribly indifferent, as if he were a little angry.For a moment, I was at a loss.The two of them walked up to me and Teresa asked me naturally, "Miss Defiant, are you here to watch a movie as well?""Yeah..." I raised the movie ticket in embarrassment and forced a smile, "I'm bored and I'm not at work so I came here to watch a movie...""Oh." Teresa stared at the movie ticket in my hands, "Miss Defiant, this is a cartoon film. I didn't expect you to be so childlike.""For the ones engaged in design, we have to understand everything a little." I explained.Hearing my words, Teresa said with a smile, "Miss Defiant, have you ever seen this movie named Our Love? We are booking the entire hall for it. You can come watch this movie with us.""I booked the entire hall for you."Dave, who was on the side, snapped before I could speak.His wor

After trying to control my emotions in success, I managed to say, "Congratulations!""Miss Defiant, I know you are sad. I'm sorry." Teresa took out a piece of paper and handed it to me, "I have known Dave for so many years. In fact, we are more like family members but our family asked us to unite through marriage. We can't go against them.""Well, I know, it doesn't matter.""I'm sorry." Teresa looked at me apologetically.I clutched the invitation card tightly in my hand but I didn't even have the courage to open it. I couldn't help but ask, "Miss Teresa, despite your relationship with Dave, don't you mind if I exist?""Me?" Teresa paused for a moment and smiled. "It's a lie if I say that I don't mind, after all, I surely will mind that my husband has another woman in his heart.""Don't worry, he doesn't have me in his heart." I said sourly."How could it be? You've been together for so long. You are surely in his heart." Teresa lowered her eyes and took a sip of coffee in front of

I woke up in an instant and looked at the caller ID on my cell phone to confirm that it was him. Then I said, "Da... Dave.""Well, don't you have something to say to me? Go ahead."Dave's voice was faint and a little cold.I didn't know how he was feeling now.Was he agitated? Or was he happy?However, all of these were no longer important to me.I gripped the cell phone tightly and said firmly, "Let's meet for the last time." Dave was silent over the phone.After a while...I finally heard his hoarse voice, "Okay. Come to my office at 10 a.m. tomorrow.""Your office?"After all, his office was a place for getting business done. It turned out that in Dave's eyes, it was an official business for him to meet me.I could hardly accept such a reality. Even so, what could I do?I agreed, "Okay, I'll be there on time tomorrow."The next morning, Kim went out, I got up to put on makeup.I probably spent the longest time ever doing makeup this time. I covered the scars on my face tightly an

I pinched my nails into my flesh and tried to hold myself back for a while before walking to his table, "Dave Mitaka, tell me now that you're telling the truth, if any word from you is false, you will die a terrible death!"All in all, I was unwilling to accept reality."Well, I swear." Dave looked up and at me calmly, "If I tell a lie, I'll be struck by lightning and die a terrible death.""Dave Mitaka, Dave Mitaka, why are you so cruel? Is lying to me something so interesting to you?" Tears finally fell down uncontrollably. I looked at him and said, "What's more frightening is that you are a good actor. You deceived me with ease and fooled me around. I trusted you so much that I was willing to be sincere to you!"In the past, I always felt that I didn't like to cry but at this very moment, I realized that when I got bullied in my childhood, I would only suffer physical pain. Right now, my heart ached and I was truly in pain!!My tears fell on the documents one by one in front of Da

Hanging up the phone, I sat up from the bed and my unorganized lower body reminded me that what had happened was indeed real.I saw a set of new clothes on the sofa.Dave was always like this. Every time, he would prepare everything for me.It probably would be the last time.I changed my clothes and went out, only to find Dave hadn't left. Standing in front of a big French window, he was smoking a cigarette.I lowered my head, only to find cigarette butts had been scattered around his feet.There seemed to be more than 20 cigarette butts in total.Could it be that he had been standing here and smoking all this time?I looked at his sharp side profile, which seemed to have been carved by a knife and there seemed to be strong sadness in his deep eyes.As the lights of the opposite building which were on shone through the glass, a layer of light seemed to be lining his body.He looked so beautiful.Dave was good looking. In my eyes, no other man in the world probably could be better loo

My words infuriated Kim. She reached out for her coat directly and said, "Did he say that? F*ck, I'm going to kill him!""Don't!" I pulled Kim's arm and said, "Forget it. Let bygones be bygones. I need to start anew again. If I continue to be entangled with him, I can never make a comeback."I needed a new life.I needed to start a life without Dave."..Well, yes, you have to live well! Only then will he regret it so much!"Except for saying so, Kim probably didn't know how to comfort me.I went back to my room and looked at the watercolor papers piled up in the corner.I took out one piece and stuck it to the drawing board. I took out the watercolor pigment and began to draw.It wasn't until I started drawing that I found the way Dave had smoked in front of the window was deeply ingraved in my mind.As for every ray of light and every color back then...I remembered them quite clearly.As long as I started drawing, I could draw smoothly with no deliberation.After I finished drawing.

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,
