The CEO's Switched Bride Chapter 259
Grabbing my wrist with one hand, Dave said quite angrily, "Didn't I tell you a long time ago that you should stay away from him and that he isn't as simple as he seems? There are so many men in this world. Why do you insist on pestering the men of the Mitaka Family? Is it because you don't have many admirers? And except for the men of the Mitaka Family, you can't find any other men who are rich, yeah? If yes, let me introduce some to you!""What are you talking about?" I was stunned. For a moment, I couldn't figure out what Dave meant by saying all that."What did I say?" Dave looked at me coldly, "You are a vain woman. Aren't you after money? Let me tell you, Oogway is poor. Even if he is rich, I can immediately make him go bankrupt. I advise you to seduce another man. Perhaps.."Pah!Before Dave could finish his words, I raised my hand and hit him on the face!I slapped him really hard. When I redrew my hand, my hand had become numb and I didn't feel anything. Looking at him, I sne

While laughing, I turned around and walked out of Oogway's room.I didn't know what happened next.I spent the entire day in my room.By nightfall, the sunset shone into my room.It was a beautiful scene.Fortunately, I brought a notebook and solid watercolor pigment with me.I found an empty lounge chair on the beach, sat on it, and began to draw.As I mixed orange and yellow watercolor pigments together and painted the sunset glow on the paper, a tall figure blocked the light in front of my eyes.Without having to look up, I knew who it was.I said as I drew, "Mr. Mitaka, you'll get married tomorrow. How come you are still following me around? If Miss Teresa sees this, she will misunderstand you.""Come with me." He said directly.I didn't move. "Mr. Mitaka, the reason why I came to your wedding is to give you your wedding present. If you don't like me being here, I'll give it to you in advance and leave the island tonight.""Okay." To my surprise, Dave directly agreed. He paused a

That night, I packed up my things and told Oogway I was leaving the island.Oogway immediately said, "Then I'll go with you. I accompanied you here. If you want to leave, I'll go with you.""No need. I'll leave on my own."Hearing my words, Oogway was quite reluctant. I persuaded him for a while and he was finally convinced.As the old saying goes, everyone will belong somewhere in the end.On this island where it rarely rained, unexpectedly, it rained heavily that night.Dave stood in a small room by the dock with me.The rain kept falling from the sky.A sailor ran in from outside, "Mr. Mitaka, I think it will rain for hours. It may be dangerous if we sail out by force...""Then don't." Dave looked at me.The sky was too dark. I couldn't see the expression on his face.He stretched out his hand and wanted to put his palm behind me. I took a step forward, took out my cell phone, and said to Dave, "Mr. Mitaka, it's midnight. In a sense, you are Miss Teresa's husband starting from tod

Because it was a western style wedding, there were only a few rows of chairs on the scene.The elders and important relatives of both family were sitting in front. Oogway and I stood at the back.I felt bored. Then there was a stir in the crowd.I followed the direction of the voice and saw Dave dressed in a black suit. Beside him was Teresa who was dressed in white.The two of them stood side by side.Teresa's wedding gown was beautiful.It was as white as snow, with beautiful lace on her shoulders and sleeves and a long trailing tail behind it.Everyone on the spot rushed up and surrounded them.Only I stood where I was still and I even wanted to escape.I always thought that I could handle it but when I saw them standing together, I knew I couldn't accept it.The band began to play a piece of beautiful piano music.Under the guidance of the staff, the new couple walked towards the stage.I stood in a corner and looked at them.Teresa held Dave's wrist and at that moment, a strange

"Oogway." When Oogway was about to accompany me leave, I heard Jamie's voice from behind.Oogway and I looked back together."Bro." Oogway was quite respectful to Jamie.Jamie patted him on the shoulder, "Oogway, I've been busy with the wedding these past days. I haven't had a good chat with you. Come to my place in the evening so we can have a good chat.""I plan to leave the island with Reed. Would you be coming back home or you'll still be travelling? How about staying in the City for a while?"Oogway rejected Jamie.It made me feel a little embarrassed. I said awkwardly, "No need. I can go back by myself. It's been long since you and uncle met each other.""Well, this little girl is sensible." Jamie said with a smile, "However, don't hurry to leave the island. Have fun here for a few more days. Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"Jamie and Briana's attitudes towards me were completely different.He seemed to treat me as Oogway's female companion so his attitude to me was quite g

Bleak looked at me and said calmly, "I just want to ask you, if Lita was standing next to you now, what will you do?"I realized something and pretended to be calm. "I have nothing to do with her and I don't want to see her.""Miss Defiant, it's not good for you to lie." After saying that, Bleak said in the direction of a room in the cabin, "Bring her here."As soon as he finished his words, the door was opened.I looked over and saw a strong man coming out with a woman who had been tied up.The woman's hair was disheveled and her face was unkempt. Her clothes were even in tatters and her mouth was covered with adhesive tape. Even so, I recognized her at a glance.Lita?Lita looked quite horrible now. Her hair was black and the length of her hair looked almost the same as that of mine.Although her face was yellow, there were dark circles around the rim of her eyes, indicating that when she had been caught, she had make up on her face.Her pants were gone. Her blouse was shabby. Most

Bleak smiled with satisfaction and said to Lita, "Get it started."Lita looked at me with a reluctant look on her face.Both of us knew quite well that if Lita wanted to live, she had to rely on me to save her.If she revealed what she had done to me now, I surely wouldn't save her..Seeing that Lita didn't speak, Bleak frowned slightly and said, "Should I suck out all the water you just drank from your stomach?"Hearing Bleak's words, Lita was so scared that she trembled. "I am on it!" She, who was originally standing, fell onto the ground as she started to recall what she had done in the past, "I...""You'd better tell me everything. After all, I've investigated what you did in the past clearly. If you leave anything out, you'll bear the consequences."Bleak spoke gloomily.His tone didn't sound tough. Even so, it sent chill down others' spines.Staring at Bleak, Lita held back what she was supposed to say and reorganized her thoughts. Only after a long time did she speak, "On the

As I was pounding on the door desperately, someone opened the small sized window on the door from outside.Something was thrown in from outside!I avoided the item subconsciously and turned around to look at it, only to find that it was the fruit knife in Bleak's hand just now.Then, Bleak's voice rang from outside, "Don't blame me for being ruthless. If someone has to be blamed, blame yourselves for being useless. You failed to affect Dave. However, while dealing with abandoned bargaining chips like you, I won't be that cold hearted.""Let me out!"I didn't have time to listen to his nonsense."Don't be anxious, Beauty Reed."Bleak said with a smile, "There are three lifeboats attached to this yacht. My men and I will drive two of them away, leaving only the roughest one behind. There are two oars on it.""And then?"I quickly picked up the fruit knife from the ground.At this time, the temperature inside the cabin was a little high."I deflated the remaining lifeboat.

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,
