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.
"Reed Defiant." I walked around the room. When I came out, I saw Oogway standing at the entrance and holding a cell phone in hand. He said to me, "I've contacted a doctor for you. This expert happens to be in the City. I've made an appointment with him. You can be there any time in the next three days. You can also go there now.""Well, let's go to him now."After I experienced Dave's blow, all I wanted to do was to treat my face as soon as possible and start a new life.Oogway wasn't surprised by my choice at all. He nodded and said, "Ok, I'll go get my coat and start the car. I will wait for you in the underground garage. You can come down after you've tidied yourself up.""I'm alright." I was wearing a jacket so I locked the door and went downstairs with Oogway by elevator.On our way, Oogway said, "Dave is getting married. Do you know that?"This topic made me feel a sharp pain in my heart. I nodded my head slightly.Oogway glanced at me out of the corner of his eyes and seeme
A voice came out of the noisy video, "I paid for first class cabin to enjoy the best service. Why are you so arrogant? I just splashed a glass of water on you. You have to suffer it because of what I paid! Do you think it's easy to earn money?""I'm a flight attendant and a waiter but you spilled water on me, which violated my rights!""Rights? What rights does a waiter have? Look at how you are dressing. It's clear that you are a slut at a glance. You want to seduce my…. my husband.""Seduce your husband? Open your eyes wide and see what your husband looks like. Why would I seduce him?""You are seducing him!"Then they said a lot more words. Soon, the two of them wrestled with each other.I was so familiar with Kim. Although Kim's face was mosaiced in the video, I was pretty sure that the flight attendant in the video was her.I looked at Oogway and asked him, "Where did you get this video?""It's going viral online." Oogway said. "I think this voice sounds like your friend's. So I
Desmond followed behind us, "Kim, it's my fault. I am being sincere to you. I've told my family I have a girl who I truly love on my mind. As long as you agree, I'll marry you.""Hehe." Kim turned her head, "Marry me? What right do you have to marry me?""I've said that I'll be responsible for you." Desmond said quickly."You will be responsible for me?" Kim heard his words and laughed out loud directly as she pointed at the crotch of his pants, "I'm sorry. I think you're dirty."The look on Desmond's face couldn't be more uglier however, he was still chasing after Kim.Kim's car was parked downstairs. She pressed the key and opened the car door.When she opened the car door and intended to get in the car, Desmond rushed over and held the car door. Then he said with a serious look, "Kim, I'm being sincere. I can't change what happened that night but for what will happen in the future, as long as you give your order, I'll do as you say."I looked at Desmond.I felt that he seemed to be
I was pregnant and it will be the third child of Dave and I.I forced myself to finish the noodles.When I was about to sit down to have a rest, Oogway came and asked, "Can we set off now?""Okay." I forced myself to cheer up.Oogway drove the car out of the residential quarter. When we passed by a pharmacy store, I hesitated for a moment and shouted, "Can you stop the car? I'm going to buy some medicine."Oogway stopped the car and I went to the pharmacy to buy a pregnancy test.I secretly stuffed it into my bag.After we arrived at the airport and checked in all the luggage, Oogway and I strode between all kinds of tax free stores.At this time, goods of limited edition for Valentine's Day could be seen everywhere.Women couldn't resist its temptation.I looked around and thought of the deposit in my bank account. In the end, I only chose a kind of limited edition eye shadow.It was red.I didn't have much knowledge about eye shadows. I bought it to sort of challenge myself.When I
Amy came to my side, placed his makeup box on the tea table by the side, and took the things out as he said, "From now on, I'll help you do makeup every morning and night, and I'll help you remove them. But you can choose to remove them by yourself. It is quite simple. I'll give you a small shovel with which you can shovel away the wax on your skin."As Amy spoke, he took out a small stick that looked like it's used for sculpture and placed it aside."I'll remove my makeup by myself at night."As I spoke, I sat down on the sofa, waiting for Amy to help me do my makeup.To tell the truth, Amy was indeed good at doing makeup. No matter what Dave's purpose was, I was quite happy that he had called Amy here.Amy began to do my makeup. He adjusted the balance of my face with skin wax first. While adjusting my face, he said, "A barbecue party will be held on the beach tonight. You can rest assure that I will surely make you the most dazzling beauty.""Thank you but I don't need to be a beaut
Oogway smiled lightly, "I am not gifted for doing business. This is all I can do.""Mr. Mitaka, you are indeed so awesome."As Amy spoke, he had an intoxicated look on his face.He quickly put an end to my makeup and packed up his things. He walked to Oogway and said charmingly, "Mr. Oogway, I'll go back and get dressed. Let's meet on the beach tonight!"Oogway hesitated for a moment then he looked at my face. It was because Amy had done makeup for me that Oogway said awkwardly, "Well, see you tonight."As soon as Amy left, Oogway immediately sat on the lounge chair aside, frowned, and said, "Will he come to do makeup for you every day in the future?""Yes.""Why don't you call me after you're ready from tomorrow onwards? I won't be coming here." Oogway sighed, "I'm indeed not good at dealing with this kind of people.""Well, I'll contact you when I'm ready." I was sort of getting Oogway out of his predicaments.After we were done talking about Amy, Oogway looked at me again. He c
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,
