last update Last Updated: 2024-10-17 00:31:58

The moment I entered the private room, I saw two familiar faces sitting inside. One was in charge of the construction of this project and the other was Director Cooper of the design institute.

After we all sat down, there was a vacant seat..

I was sure that the seat was for the investor.

Crack.

As soon as I sat down and put my bag aside, the door to the private room opened again.

A waiter came over first, made a gesture, and said to the person outside, "Mr. Mitaka, this way please."

Mr. Mitaka?

As soon as I heard him, my brain was in a buzz!

The next second, I saw Dave walking into the private box slowly from outside.

He was dressed in a set of stiff suits of matte gray color and his hair seemed shorter than it had been a few years ago.

His facial features remained the same however, his skin seemed slightly darker.

Originally, I thought I was strong enough but as soon as I saw him, I felt my heart seemed to have been torn apart by an invisible hand.

    "Old woman, are you blind?" The girl rolled her eyes at me.The boy next to her hugged her and kissed her cheek, saying, "Don't bother with her. Seeing her dress like this, it surely has been a long time since she made love with a man.""Haha, I think so as well. Nobody nowadays will dress like this. Does she think that she is shooting a TV drama?"The girl laughed happily.I picked up my bag and walked over, intending to reason with them and get them to apologize to me. However, a tall figure flashed past me first.Dave walked straight to the front of the young couple and commanded, "Apologize to her."The young couple didn't seem to expect a man to appear. They looked at Dave with disdain on their faces.The boy said, "Who are you? Are you trying to act as a hero to save a beauty? Saving this old woman?"The boy's words sounded so harsh to me.I'm only 30 years this year. How come I am an old woman?Dave didn't answer his question instead, he repeated, "Apologize to her."The boy ey

    Dave looked straight at me with complicated emotions in his eyes, "Talk to me with the voice you asked me to watch out just now.""Isn't my voice just now the same as my current one?"I smiled awkwardly, feeling quite regretful in my heart.Unexpectedly, Dave even remembered my former voice."No." He frowned, "Say 'Watch out'.""Watch out."I said as I disguised my voice."No, not like that." The disappointment in Dave's eyes couldn't be more obvious.I couldn't help but persuade him, "Mr. Mitaka, I accidentally spoke in that voice because of my emotion just now. Is there any problem?"Dave seemed to have been convinced.He stopped grabbing my chin with his fingers, shook his head, and said thoughtfully, "Nothing. It's just that your voice just now sounds like someone I know."I fell silent and didn't reply.I know whose voice my voice just now sounded like the best.I said while holding my bag in my hands, "Mr. Mitaka, then I'll go back first. You should go back and rest early."Aft

    "I'm sorry, Mr. Mitaka, what does this mean?" Although I was uneasy in my heart, I pretended to be puzzled, saying, "Could it be that you intend to arrange for me to live in your house?""Do you want to live in my house?"By the time Dave spoke, he had taken my luggage out of the car.He had a complex expression on his face.I hurried over and took my leather suitcase over, "I'm sorry, Mr. Mitaka. I will stay in a hotel."As I said that, I pulled my suitcase and walked out.To pretend that I was unfamiliar with the place, I deliberately headed in the opposite direction of the exit of the residential quarter.Dave looked at me from behind but didn't call me back.I didn't look back. I just walked forward with no hesitation. Knowing that it was a wrong road, I had no intention of turning back.Finally, the sound of Daves leather shoes came from behind.He came over, grabbed the bar rod of my suitcase, and said in a low voice, "You're going in the opposite direction. It's not an exit.""

    After putting me down, he took the umbrella in my hand and returned to the driver's seat. Squinting at me, he asked, "It's raining. Why did you walk in the direction of the mountain?""No, I was heading to the subway station." I explained.Hearing my words, Dave frowned slightly and said, "Why didn't I get to know you have a terrible sense of direction before? You walked in the opposite direction."His words were like a bomb.I couldn't help but be nervous as I quickly said, "Mr. Mitaka, it was just yesterday that you got to know me."Squinting at me out of the corner of his eyes, Dave focused on driving saying nothing further.The car drove all the way to Unit. 1. I couldn't be more familiar with this place.Watching the car enter the residential quarter, I asked quickly, "Mr. Mitaka, where are we going?"Dave said nothing.Feeling terrified, I grabbed the handle of the car door and said nervously, "Mr. Mitaka, if you're planning to take me to your house, I'm going to jump out the c

    Oogway looked at Dave, who was pulling me, and finally showed an indignant expression, "Dave, I know that Alina is similar to her. This is one of the reasons why I paid attention to her but I hope you can understand that five years ago...""Shut up!" Dave immediately interrupted Oogway's words and looked at him gloomily, "Uncle Oogway, it's time for you to leave.""Let go of Alina. I need to treat her injury.""Alina?" Dave looked at Oogway and sneered, "Uncle Oogway, you'd better mind your own business. I will deal with her injury.""Mr. Mitaka."I turned around and broke free from Dave's restraint then I stood a meter away from him.Dave looked at me and frowned slightly.Seeing that he wanted to say something, I snapped, "I found it strange before. As the President of Mitaka Group, you can get any woman you want however, you took care of me, an insignificant designer well. I have been wondering whether I am so charismatic to make you pay special attention to me, Mr. Mitaka." I pau

    Oogway's room was as clean as it used to be many years ago.I took a shower quickly and got changed.Wiping my hair, I walked out of the bathroom.Oogway was sitting in the hall with a book in hand. Seeing me, he put down the book and walked quickly to me. Helping me to the sofa, he said in a warm tone, "Let me help you check your injury then I'll go buy the medicine."Oogway was down on his knees in front of me, holding my left foot with both hands, he gently twisted it."Hiss..." Feeling much pain, I couldn't help but take a deep breath.Oogway immediately lessened his strength and said with a slight frown, "You didn't hurt your bones. Even so, I'd better go out and buy a spray. Wait for me here."He spoke as he got up and walked out.As he was about to go out, he reminded me, "Don't move randomly.""Okay." I nodded.After Oogway went out, I didn't move. Sitting on the sofa obediently, I looked around.His home was as it used to be, looking minimalistic. There was nothing else but

    To my surprise, as soon as I was between them, both of them stopped fighting. They were afraid of hurting me.I stood on Oogway's side and looked at Dave with great vigilance.Oogway came forward, "Dave Mitaka, do you know what you are doing?"Oogway had always called Dave by his first name. It was the first time I had seen Oogway call Dave by his full name.Without looking at Oogway, Dave kept staring at me and curled up the corner of his mouth, revealing a smile, "Uncle Oogway, you have been hiding my woman by your side for five years. How come you ask me what I am doing?""She's not Reed Defiant! Reed Defiant is dead!" Oogway looked at the clothes on my body and said, "Her clothes are soaked wet and there aren't any clothes for women in my place, so I got her to try Reed's clothes."Hearing his words, Dave had a mocking smile on his face, "Uncle Oogway, do you think I'm a fool?""If you don't believe me, there is nothing I can do about that." Oogway said. He then helped me to the

    Standing in front of my office desk, I asked Dave, "Mr. Mitaka, what can I do for you?"Dave looked around and looked up at me, "Do you work on your design here?"He had no emotion on his face like he used to. When he spoke, it was formally.Feeling slightly relieved in my heart, I nodded. "Yes."He nodded, stood up, and put his hands in his pockets, saying, "I have prepared a temporary studio for you. It's a two story studio. You can live upstairs and work downstairs. You can live there while working on this project.""There's no need, Mr. Mitaka." I subconsciously rejected him.Dave walked two steps outside. Hearing that I refused him, he wasn't surprised at all. He paused and said, "This club is quite important to me. You, the designer, are the most important step and the guarantee of the entire project's success. For the sake of this project, you deserve to be treated like this.""Mr. Mitaka, I can work on my design here...""Ok. Then I will kick these people out so you can enjoy

    My heart pounded against my ribs as I took a shaky breath, trying to steady my emotions. But as I turned to face the guests, my family, my friends, and most of all, the man standing just a few steps away, my voice trembled with overwhelming emotion."This isn’t just Kim’s wedding," I finally said, my voice thick with unshed tears. "It’s mine too."Gasps filled the air, followed by a stunned silence. Then, all at once, the crowd erupted into excitement.I heard my mother’s joyful sob, saw Kelvin blinking in surprise before his face broke into a smile. Kim squeezed my hand, winking, and Desmond chuckled beside her. But my eyes weren’t on them.They were on Dave.He stood motionless for a moment, his eyes locked on mine. Then, with the help of his crutches, he began to walk toward me, determination in every step.When he finally reached my side, he lifted a hand to my face, his thumb brushing against my cheek.“You’re crying,” he murmured, his voice thick with emotion.I laughed shakily,

    Dave surely wouldn't say no to Desmond.Seeing that Dave had personally agreed, Desmond couldn't be more joyful.Hearing Desmond's words, Dave lowered his eyes slightly. Falling silent for a moment, he didn't promise Desmond immediately.I knew what he was hesitant about.In his current situation, it was difficult for him to stand on stage. He might need a crutch.As I was about to refuse on behalf of him, Dave spoke first, "Okay, no problem.""Then I'm leaving. I won't bother you two anymore!"Hearing that Dave had agreed, Desmond left.After Desmond left, I said with some concern, "Desmond is one of us. If you are in a difficult position, tell him directly.""I know." Dave looked up at the rehabilitation equipment on the side and said, "But we agreed on this a long time ago. I can't let him down."It made sense. Desmond had always been by Dave's side.They two should have agreed on this early.Dinner was a quiet affair, but in the best way possible. The kind where words weren’t alw

    Dave and I lived in the town for a while.When we lived together, Dave would make love to me against my will with the excuse that it would be conducive to the recovery of his legs.Frequently, we didn't go to bed until the middle of the night. I was so exhausted that I didn't even know when he had gone to rehabilitation in the morning.One and a half months later, Dave's legs had recovered to a great extent. He could walk for a short distance without a crutch.On the last day of the rehabilitation training, the doctor told us in the rehabilitation room that Dave could return to the City, saying that he could finish the rest of the rehabilitation training at home.Hearing this, Dave bought flight tickets on the same day.We went back and packed up our things before setting off.The next night, Dave and I landed at the airport.After going back home, Dave and I didn't get Bryan back to our side for the time being. Dave had been quite busy because of his work.He worked overtime after m

    Teresa walked gracefully and looked at us, asking, "What happened?"She looked as if she was watching a good show. From this, I knew that she surely had been eavesdropping inside for a while and that she surely had known what had happened by this time.Having been in contact with Teresa for a long time, these people were naturally close to her.Hearing her question, everyone told her what had happened.Teresa looked at me with an unconcealable smile on her face, saying to me, "People in this town are clean and simple. How can you act the same way as you did in the City? You are a discredit here.""He gave me the key." I defended myself.Teresa surely wasn't convinced as well, saying, "Even if you are lying, you have to make up convincing lies. Everyone knows that you and I are both kept outside here. He probably doesn't even know that you are here. How would he give you the key?"As Teresa spoke, she had a smug look in her eyes.Sure enough, after she finished her words, the ones arou

    Picking up my cutlery and taking a bit of rice, I said, "I'm leaving tonight. I'll come see you every night in the future.""Why?"Hearing this, Dave was a little puzzled.I chuckled, "I won't tell you! Anyway, don't let others know that I've been here."I didn't tell him why. However, Dave was so smart. Seeing my expression, he immediately said, "You want to keep her in the dark, right?"I nodded.Since Teresa had put in so much effort to put on a show, I naturally wouldn't let her act in vain.He nodded.However, when I left, I didn't climb over the wall again. Dave found someone and gave me a key to the back door locked all year round.I left through the backdoor.The next morning, I went to the hospital as usual.Teresa wore a blue and white dress with knee length today.Sitting on the opposite side of the road, she stared at the hospital door in a daze.When I went over, Teresa looked up at me and said with a hint of disdain, "I thought you were gone.""No, I didn't."There was a

    A long time seemed to have passed since we made love. However, Dave was quite familiar with my body. Hooking my arms around his neck, I looked at him and said, "I want you."I rarely said so.At this moment, I knew that by seeing what I did and hearing my words, Dave could be infinitely confident.Raising his head, Dave hadunconcealable excitement in his eyes.Reaching out and pushing aside the strands of hair on my cheeks, he said, "You have me.""You have me."After he said so, the ambiguous and warm atmosphere permeated the room.By the time I opened my eyes again, day...Someone outside knocked on the door. A nurse seemed to be calling Dave to do the rehabilitation training.I looked at Dave sleeping soundly beside me with my face slightly blushed. Last night, we had been making love for a long time. Dave seemed to have inexhaustible strength. One or two hours had passed only since we went to bed.Dave, like me, heard what the nurse had said outside. Without opening his eyes, he

    After I entered the room, it was dark inside with the curtains drawn. I couldn't see anything.Wondering where Dave was, I was sure that he surely had fallen asleep.I reached out to fudge around, trying to figure out the situation inside the room.All of a sudden, I ended up touching a soft and sturdy body.I was shocked.Then, I heard Dave say, "Leave quickly. Or I'll call a bodyguard."His voice was cold and emotionless.I couldn't help but shudder.I suspected that the bodyguard had betrayed me.As I was about to say something, I heard him say, "You surely know the situation of Michaelson Group well. With a phone call from me, Michaelson Group will close down tomorrow. At that time, you may not even afford to return to the City."It turned out that he mistook me as Teresa.Sensing that he was standing, I wondered whether Dave's legs had been healed."You... ""It's me."As Dave was about to speak again, I reached out and hugged him directly.While hugging him, I touched something

    Kim picked up the call and spoke in surprise over the phone, "You are making an international call.""I have something to tell you." Looking at the desktop wallpaper on my computer screen, I thought for a moment before saying, "Yesterday, I learned that Teresa and Dave might have a son and that he should be about the same age as Bryan.""What?"I could strongly sense Kim's surprise over the phone so I moved the cell phone a little further away from me.Kim continued, "That's impossible. What the hell is this? Didn't he ever tell you about this?"Holding the cell phone, I shook my head, "No, I knew it yesterday. And now I'm in a mess.""Well, regarding this..." Kim said over the phone, "In my opinion, you should ask Dave about this by yourself. After all, Teresa is good at disguising herself. You don't even know whether she is telling the truth or not. Nobody knows that she, who is a high ranking socialite in the City before, is a shrew in private, right? You'd better confirm with Dave

    I looked left and right.The wall guarding the hospital was made up of ordinary brick. It was only more than two meters high. In fact, the wall couldn't be of any deterring effect at all.After thinking for a moment, I said to the bodyguard, "Since you won't let me in, I'll go. Please don't tell Dave that I've come here, okay?"The bodyguard didn't know that I probably would make other moves.If he knew, I wouldn't have any chances at all.Looking at me, he hesitated for a moment and nodded.Fearing that he promised me nominally, I put my palms together devoutly and pleaded, "Please don't tell him.""Well, I won't."The bodyguard promised once again.Only after that was I rest assured.Seeing that I came out, Teresa stood at the door and looked sarcastic, "I originally thought you would be greatly respected. It turned out that you were kept outside as well."Looking at Teresa, I wasn't angry, asking, "Miss Teresa, you are a socialite in the City. I remember when we first met, you talk
