The knife, which wasn't with any scabbard, had its blade directly exposed outside.

Lita dared not touch it so she could only grab my hand.

"What am I doing?" Lita had a ferocious smile on her face, "Of course, I want to live on! Don't you not understand? After we are outside this cabin, only one of us can live!"

"We have a suitcase."

"This thing won't float at all!" Lita tried to grab the knife with her hands by catching me and wrestling my hand over.

She wanted to snatch the knife away from me.

She hadn't had a good meal these days so she didn't have any strength. Even so, I had to put down my suitcase and confront her.

As Lita looked at me, her eyes turned red. She said, "Reed Defiant, your face has been ruined. You, who have a cheap life, had better die here alone. Let me live. In that case, I'll keep your favor in my mind in the future and burn some spiritual money for you on this exact day every year."

"In your dreams!"

I figured out that everything that Lita had done just now wa

    As soon as I arrived inside the deck, I saw Oogway sitting inside.Seeing me, he was obviously stunned for a moment. He quickly stood up and looked at the gradually sinking yacht outside the window, asking, "Is that the yacht you boarded?""Yes!" I looked at him. Feeling a little confused, I asked, "Why did you come over?"Could it be that Bleak had informed him of this? Or is he related to Bleak in any way?Before Lita revealed to me that the one who had orchestrated the kidnapping incident was Teresa Michaelson, I guessed it would be Oogway.Now that he appeared here again. I couldn't help but wonder whether it was too much of a coincidence?Oogway frowned, "Not long after you left, I told my eldest brother that I was worried about you so I left the island too. According to the sailors, a yacht was burning. Feeling worried about you, I intended to call the police to come and then leave..."Speaking of this, Oogway suddenly took me into his arms and murmured, "Fortunately, I am here

    I looked over and found that the disabled man got two empty sleeves, showing that he seemed to be with no hands.Every time when Kelvin wanted to pull him up, he would be in a stalemate with Kelvin."Mr. Kelvin." I rushed over to Kelvin, "What are you doing?"When Kelvin saw me, he immediately showed a surprised look, "Oh, it's you. You show up in time. Please help me pull him up. I have to expose him today."I was embarrassed in an instant.When the ones around saw that I knew Kelvin, they all persuaded me, "Oh, take him away quickly.""I agree. How can someone disabled prove his disability?""Exactly! I'm going to call the police."Hearing someone say he would call the police, I suddenly figured out an idea. I took out my cell phone, and said to Kelvin, "Mr. Kelvin, don't be angry. I will call the police. After the police arrive, they will have many ways to deal with him.""You're right." Hearing my words, Kelvin immediately stopped dragging the beggar, sat down, and took the bag ne

    Kelvin seemed to have seen through my hesitation. He smiled and said, "Many people want to be my disciple. You, who have nothing extraordinary and is mediocrely talented, I am devoted to taking you as my disciple. You are curious about it, right?"I was stunned.Admittedly, instead of beating around the bush with me, Kelvin spoke directly and harshly.After he finished his words, I nodded and laughed awkwardly at the same time.I didn't know what to say for a moment.Instead of enlightening me first, Kelvin pointed to the cup in front of him and said, "Serve me some tea first. Then I'll tell you."Looking at the tea, I got up first, picked up the tea, and knelt. Then I said respectfully, "Master, please have some tea."Kelvin took the tea over, drank it, and said with satisfaction, "Alright, alright. From now on, you're Kelvin Drake's disciple. You can call me Master or Kelvin.""I'll call you Master."It would be the better term.After Kelvin agreed, he looked at me and said, "You ga

    After Kelvin and I came out of the teahouse that day, he left first.The weather in this town was warmer than that of the City.The teahouse wasn't far from the place where I lived so I walked back alone. As I passed by a cafe, I saw the news on TV."Dave Mitaka, the President of Mitaka Group and Teresa Michaelson from the Michaelson family got married on a private island. They will return home today."Hearing the name of Dave, I couldn't help but stop and look inside the coffee shop. On the screen of a big TV in the hall, the scene where Dave and Teresa got off a plane was displayed.Dave, dressed in a suit was holding Teresa's hand tightly. As the two of them stood together, they looked like a perfect match.I couldn't help but take a few steps forward and walk into the cafe."Wow! They surely are the legendary perfect match, right?"In the cafe, four girls were sitting at a table next to the entrance. One of them spoke first.Another girl said, "What? You haven't read the Facebook

    Oogway stood up and walked to me, "Are you afraid of causing me trouble? No. I don't think there's any trouble. And, I am the one who proposed your fake death. I returned and found out that the police, the Mitaka Family, and Defiant Family all seemed to think you were the corpse on the yacht.""It's not like that. I think you are right. I have to become a better me..."I told Oogway everything, including my meeting Kelvin and the fact that I would learn from him.After hearing me out, Oogway looked even more serious. "No, take me to him or I'll be worried.""Well...""Otherwise, I won't agree. Nowadays, a lot of people are pretending to be masters."It struck me that he was worried about my safety.If it were someone else, I might have minded that he had intervened in my matters too much. However, hearing Oogway say so, I agreed.That night, I asked Kelvin out to have dinner together.Oogway and Kelvin sat across each other.Although the gap between their ages was 20 years, unexpected

    The situation of each car was different so the degree of injuries were also different.Some were injured lightly while others were injured badly. However, most were injured more lightly than the woman just now. Seeing this, Oogway, who was relieved, planned to go back to the car."Doctor, doctor!" One of the traffic police came up with a cell phone in his hands and said, "After the wounded woman was sent to the hospital, the doctors encountered some problems. Hearing that you were a surgeon, they wanted to consult you."Oogway picked up the call without hesitation.After communicating with the doctors on the phone for a long time, Oogway became anxious and said in the end, "Wait. I'll be there right away!"After handing back the phone, he looked at the ambulance in the distance and then said to the officer, "Please drive my car to the hospital. I will go to the hospital with the ambulance first.""Alright."The traffic officer agreed at once.After saying that, Oogway remembered that

    Not long after, a colleague of the traffic police handed me Haick's cell phone. However, it had run out of power.As we were about to leave, the dean and vice dean of the hospital both came to see Oogway off in person.Besides expressing their gratitude to Oogway, they were quite respectful to him.It wasn't until we got in the car that I said, "It turns out that you are a medical expert. I didn't know about that before.""No, I've rarely done an operation for the past two years. The reason why the operation today was successful is some luck." Oogway said lightly.I knew that there was no luck in it. I believed Oogway, who was so excellent at such a young age, surely was quite hard working.The outstanding ones were all working hard.By the time we arrived in the City, it was past 10 p.m.Oogway took me to a hotel and booked two rooms.The two rooms were next to each other.He sent me to the door of my room, saw me enter, and left.After I entered the room, the first thing I did was t

    I found that a few months ahead of the car accident, Haick posted, "I want to gamble on it this time. As long as I get the money, I can run a big company and be on the same level as her man. Then she probably will come back to me one day."Reading this post, I had a hunch. Whatever Haick mentioned is likely to have something to do with his death but what could it be? Bleak probably is the only one who knows the truth.These things made me quite upset.I wasn't in the mood to go to bed at all.I got changed and went out to get snacks.As soon as I arrived downstairs, I saw a row of luxury cars parked at the entrance of the hotel.Standing on the side, I saw a group of people in suits talking to each other. One of them wore a matte suit with his hair combed backward.The man, who was obviously a little haggard, stood there. As the surrounding ones were talking cheerfully, his face didn't even change.He slightly drooped the corner of his mouth as if everything around had nothing to do wi

    Not long after that day, a female superstar was revealed to have slept with different men, overshadowing all news related to me.In the end, my life went to as peaceful as it used to be.The studio gradually returned to normal. And the renovation of the former studio had almost been done. So we moved back.I transformed one of Judith's guest rooms into Bryan's room and got him back to my side.If Bryan went to the same kindergarten as he did before, it would be troublesome. So I intended to transfer him to another kindergarten.It just so happened that Marie found a kindergarten offering a semi boarding service for Aurelia. She could live there from Monday to Thursday. And Marie would pick her up and take her home on weekends.According to Marie, she had studied this kindergarten for a long time and found it quite reliable. So I sent Bryan there as well.Since Bryan wasn't home at ordinary times, I had a lot of free time.Apart from learning to drive, I focused on my work.Once I beca

    I followed him into the elevator specifically for the president. Dee stood in front of me. Through the mirror in the elevator door, I could see that he looked dignified.Walking out of the elevator, I saw that the whole top floor was the same as before.Dee took me to the door of Dave's office. Knocking twice on the door, he said, "Mr. Mitaka, she's here."Then he pushed the door open slightly and motioned me to go in.It seems that Dave had known I will come.I looked at the door and felt extremely nervous. Taking a deep breath, I pushed the door open and walked in.In the office, Dave sat in front of a large L shaped desk with a document in one hand and a folder in the other, correcting the document.I walked in. He paused what he was doing for a moment. Without raising his head, he asked, "What do you want to say?"If Dave's attitude to me was as normal as usual, I might indeed think that I had seen something wrong. However, judging from the current scene, I knew that I hadn't se

    Lying there, I rested for quite a while before sitting up.Looking at the dim living room around me, I saw a faint light shining through the window of the living room. Searching the living room carefully, I was sure Dave hadn't come back.Yeah, he didn't come back. Otherwise, seeing that I fell down, he surely would come to me.I thought of the kiss at noon.I, who had been pretending to be strong, could no longer disguise myself.I stood where I was and kept telling myself, "Aren't you going to be independent of him? Aren't you going to stop thinking about him?"After all, everything would only get worse and worse if we were together. It would be better if we weren't together.In that case, the ones I loved wouldn't get hurt.How nice it would be!I kept telling myself this.Yeah. Since I decided to break up with him, I would have to make things clear to him face to face, right?I was deceiving myself in my mind.Rubbing my waist, I took out my cell mobile phone from my pocket.

    Marie sighed, "Alina Jetson, oh, Alina Jetson. Sometimes I really don't know whether you are smart or stupid. Dave is so good to you. Why did you hide this from him?""I..." I turned around, "I don't want to make trouble for him. I think I can solve this independently. If I tell him, he will definitely help me. I am independent. And I can't always be protected by him, can I?""Are you making blind and disorderly conjectures?" Marie looked at me with a frown."Am I thinking randomly?"I didn't know what to say at the moment.Marie took my hand and said, "He may be having a meeting. Don't think too much. As Scarlett said, he's a president. How can he hang around you all day? Maybe he hasn't seen the press conference up till now."I knew that what Marie had said wouldn't happen.When I left, I remembered Dave's expression very clearly.He surely knew that I was going to do something that I kept from him.Scarlett shouted from the side, "Let's go have the meal quickly. I'm so hungry."Wit

    At this time, Harry looked at Matt on the side, "Vice Dean Parma, it's your turn."Matt stood there with a look of embarrassment on his face.Matt was dressed in a gray blue jacket, a pair of sweatpants, and a pair of sneakers, looking casual.It was as if someone had forcibly dragged him over here while he was doing his morning running.Hearing how Harry called Matt, all the reporters under the stage suddenly understood who Matt was. All of a sudden, they all aimed the cameras at him!Matt lowered his head, clenched his hands into fists. The conference room was not hot at all. But I could clearly see a layer of sweat on Matt's forehead."Vice Dean Parma?" Harry raised his voice, called out once again, and handed Matt the microphone he had used just now.This time, Matt finally moved. He raised his hand to take the microphone over and looked at the audience with a dull look. Then he opened his mouth as if he had made up his mind, "I'm Matt Parma. I testify that what Alina said just n

    When I no longer looked at the computer screen, I saw the reporters all looking at me with different looks in their eyes. It seemed that each of their looks was meaningful.Some seemed to be waiting to make fun of me. And others seemed to be waiting to mock me.This made me even more certain that I wouldn't have an easy time later.To prevent them from sensing my cowardice, I straightened up my back, trying to look calm as much as I could.Finally, it was 10 a.m.At this time, Matt hadn't yet appeared still.At this moment, Loraine walked to the platform in front of her. Sitting down, she said, "Thank you all for coming."After that, she introduced me to everyone and the purpose of the press conference today.I greeted everyone, "Hello, I am Alina Jetson as well as Reed Defiant."I didn't want to hide my identity anymore.At this time, the reporters under the stage all showed that they were all watching a good show.Judging from their expressions, they all seemed to be waiting for th

    At this time, the phone had been hung up, and my heart was pounding. I was afraid that he would know that I was going to hold a press conference privately tomorrow.I was afraid that he would blame me for hiding the contact with Matt from him.My feelings were extremely complicated. However, the man was at the door.I went downstairs and opened the door.Dave stood at the door, only wearing a thin suit coat. Under his slightly messy hair, his eyes were bloodshot, and there were dark circles under his eyes.He had food in his hand.He must have had a wearing journey. At first glance, it could be seen that he had hurried to come over as soon as he got off the plane.Looking at his appearance, my heart was filled with guilt, and I felt that I shouldn't have hidden it from him.At least, I should tell him.But now things had been proceeding, I didn't even have the courage to say it.Dave entered the room and put the food on the table. He reached out his hands and took me in his arms. Pu

    I suppressed the excitement in my heart, "What is it?"In fact, if only Matt told the story by himself, it would be not convincible as there was no evidence.Then it needed to be testified by someone else, or by some evidence which Matt had kept for himself.Matt was in a conflicting emotion which can be seen from his face. "In fact, I also recorded what happened at that time."Haha.Recording was really a good method.I was relieved hearing this. I put my hands on the table and seriously asked him, "Which do you think will be more disadvantageous to you? The exposure of having an affair with the director's wife or of doing something wrong for your child?"In fact, I felt that both of them were almost the same. However, the latter seemed to be slightly better than the former.Matt looked at me. Instead of answering, he asked reluctantly, "How many videos and recordings do you have? Where did these things come from?""I have four altogether." I thought for a moment and said, "I asked s

    Because it was at night without heavy traffic, Dave arrived soon.I followed Dave back to No.1, but I still didn't tell him about the videos after hesitating several times.However, I beat him around the bush and it turned out that Dave knew nothing about that.Then, who sent those files to me?Soon, I thought of another person, Oogway.I realized that meeting him this afternoon wasn't a coincidence.Since the previous incident, I realized that there were not so many coincidences in the world. All the coincidences might be set by others.I remembered what Oogway said before I got in the taxi?Was he really making up for his mistake?His deed has nothing to do with me, but I need these documents now.The next morning, Dave went to work.Before he went out, he told me that he needed to go abroad for a business trip, which would take about a week.Originally, I planned to go straight to meet Matt that day. However, after thinking for a while, I gave up.I took my laptop to Judith's house
