I looked at him and told him everything about my pregnancy, before I was imprisoned and the fact that my baby was aborted.In the end, I added, "I went to the hospital for a check up not long ago. According to the doctor, my uterus was damaged and I won't be pregnant again for the rest of my life."I lied to him, saying that I could never get pregnant. After all, Haick was so good that I didn't deserve him.I knew men wanted to have children of their own. So, Haick surely would mind this.At this time, I saw the hesitation in Haick's eyes.What I had least expected was for him to hug me suddenly, "Reed, it turns out that you have suffered so much in prison. I'm sorry. It's my fault that I could't help you with the lawsuit. Please forgive me. I'm so sorry.. And I promise to protect you this time around."I was stunned in his arms."Haick, I said I can't have a baby.""If you can't, let it be. I don't mind."Haick's behavior was completely beyond my expectation.I broke free from his em
I struggled desperately but I couldn't move at all.When I heard the sound indicating that his belt fell to the ground along with his pants, I thought that I would have no way out today....Crack! A crisp sound of unlocking came from the door.It was a very low and crisp sound but in my ears, it sounded like a saviour!Bernard seemed to be stunned as well. He slowed down and said unhappily, "Didn't I f**king tell you all to leave? No one should come in here!"I took this chance, moved my head away from the water and shouted, "Help! Cough! Cough! Help!"I heard the door open. Although I couldn't see who it was, I could feel Bernard's hand which was holding my hands, was shaking. Then I heard his flattering voice, "Mr. Mitaka, why, why are you here at this time?"'Mr. Mitaka.'Based on this name, I could only think of one person in mind."Let go of her." I heard the order coming from behind.Bernard immediately let go of me.After that, he ordered again, "Get out!""Yes, yes." Bernard
When the manager heard that I was such a person, he immediately said, "Mr. Mitaka, I am contacting the staff of Haick Design now. We will call off the project partnership as soon as possible."Haick Design was Haick's company."No!" I stepped forward and stood in front of the manager.Although I hated it and I wasn't willing to, I still said, "I will resign! I will resign! Are you satisfied?"I knew what Dave wanted. Dave wants to see my life ruined with no way out. I couldn't let Haick be put in a difficult position because of me.Dave looked at her and didn't say anything.I stood there, made a call to Haick, and said helplessly, "Mr. Grimm, I resign." After that, I hung up the phone before Haick could ask me anything.I put my cell phone into my pocket and bowed to Dave, "Mr. Mitaka, I've already resigned from Haick Design. Now, I have nothing to do with this company as well as this project. There's no need to vent your hatred for me on others."After that, I turned back and left.
That night, Haick asked me to stay for another night.The next day, I was full of energy so I follwed Haick to the company.As soon as we got into the lobby, the receptionist ran over, "Mr. Grimm, Mr. Mitaka arrived early..."I turned my head and happened to see Dave in a dark suit through the glass wall of the reception room. He got up from the couch and walked straight towards us.When he saw me standing side by side with Haick, his black eyes were full of contempt. He slightly opened his thin lips and said, "Reed Defiant, although you have been re educated in prison for a year and half, you haven't got rid of your bad habit of being cheap for the sake of money."As soon as he finished his words, his statements made the colleagues around me lament instantly."Don't talk nonsense!" I panicked. Moreover, I didn't understand why a person like Dave Mitaka would condescend to come to a small company like ours.While I was at a loss, I felt my shoulders warm. Then, I heard Haick say, "I
Along the way, I scolded Dave as viciously as I could but he seemed indifferent.When the car stopped again, Dave lowered the window and looked out of the window, saying"Look! Where are we?"I turned my head and looked out the window. It took me quite a while to realize where we were. In an instant, my face paled.It was unknown when the car had arrived at an orphanage. However, the orphanage was different from what I remembered. I use to spent most of my time here with the kids when I was in college.This was my bonding place. I knew what it felt like to be unwanted. My family treated me like trash so I usually came here to find peace and comfort.If it weren't for the sign written at the gate, I wouldn't have believed that the building in front of me was the orphanage where I had been visiting.At this time, Dave had already gotten out of the car and said to me, "Let's go in and have a look."When I followed him into the orphanage, the old dean had already come out to welcome him
At dinner, Jamin urged us over and over again, saying we should bear him a fat grandson as soon as we could.I agreed with a faint smile but I knew it would never happen.After we came out of the Mitaka Family house, I was just about to get in the car when I noticed that the tassel of the small cloak was hooked onto the covered button of Dave's belt.I wore a low cut evening dress. I hadn't taken off the cloak over at dinner but, the tassel was hooked on Dave's belt. We sat in the car and I knew if I leaned over to untie it, I would have to make an ambiguous posture. Helplessly, I had no choice but to take off my cloak. After all, I couldn't ask Dave to take off his belt."Lemme take this off." I said as I tried to untie the tassel.Although I said so, it seemed that the more anxious I was, the tighter the tassel got entangled.The cloak was very expensive and I didn't dare to cut the tassel off. While I was sweating all over my head, I saw Dave press on the belt with his big palm.
Outside the door, Lita was making a big scene but I could care less about her.By the time I checked my phone, there were already a few text messages from Haick.'Reed, where are you? I'm worried about you.''Did I give you too much pressure recently? Tell me. I will adjust myself.''Remember to call me back when you see my messages.'There were three texts in a row from him.I knew that Haick cared about me sincerely but now, I was afraid that I would get him in trouble.Dave was right. It would only take a few minutes for him to destroy Haick's company, which he had worked so hard to set up.That night, I didn't reply to Haick's message.The next day, I went to Haick's company. I entered Haick's office and told him directly, "I quit."Haick frowned and eyed the set of expensive clothes on my body. After a long time, he asked, "Did Dave force you to?""No." I sat on the sofa with my red lips curling up, "It's just that I've figured it out. Being Mrs. Mitaka is better off. Why do I h
After about two months, we got another order for an independent clothing studio. The client was generous and none of us dared to neglect this order.The task was assigned to Blue who then asked me to be her assistant.I readily agreed.After we visited the studio for the first time, I instantly understood why the client was so generous.This studio was located in the central city where one inch of land equaled gold. If this place was furnished as a restaurant, a store, or even a cafe, the owner surely would make a lot of money. However, the client wanted to make it a clothing studio.Admittedly, the rich could do whatever they wanted.During the signing of the contract, it was a man named Evangel Nates, who made every inquiry requiring the design however, after we arrived at the studio, Evangel suddenly said he was helping his boss get this order done and his boss would tell us the specific plan and ideas later.After a while, a red Aston Martin car stopped at the entrance of the stud
By the time Kelvin, Jessica, and I arrived at the underground garage together, Marie had parked her car there. We got in the car, successfully bypassed the reporters from the exit of the underground garage, and stopped at the residential quarter where Kelvin had rented.Kelvin wasn't short of money. Although he didn't live here, he rented a large house with three bedrooms and one living room which was equipped with luxurious decoration and well equipped furniture.Jessica was very quiet along the way as if she knew what had happened. And it probably was because she knew that we were good to her that she was very cooperative.She did whatever we asked her to do.Wherever she went, she held the doll tightly in her arms.In the hospital, Jessica was always taken care of by nurses. Now she was at home, And Kelvin was a rough man. He could hardly take care of himself, let alone Jessica.I hesitated for a moment before saying, "I'll get Dave to arrange for a few servants we know to come ov
Holding the cell phone tremblingly a little, I said, "You... You are despicable!""Well, I admit it." Oogway said in a lazy voice, "I'll wait and see how you will deal with this farce."After that, he hung up the phone.Looking at the screen of my cell phone, I was in a mess.How could this be? I suddenly felt that I seemed to have been played hard by Oogway.Most ridiculously, I had sympathized with him.Marie sat aside and looked at me, asking with concern, "What happened? What did he say?""He said he would wait and see how I would deal with this farce," I said.As I repeated Oogway's words, it was as if I could imagine the expression on Oogway's face.He should look playful and mocking.He should find it quite interesting to have played me at his fingertips, right?Ding!Ding!Ding!My cell phone rang. Among the three people who knew my number, one of them would never call me. So only the other two would call me.I took a look at it and saw that the caller was Dave.I picked up t
Time passed by.At this time, the sound of a car suddenly came from the door. Then I heard the sound of someone opening the door with a key.All of a sudden, Oogway straightened up and stepped backward slightly.Looking at me, he raised his hand and gently touched the top of my head with his big and bony palms, saying lightly, "I'm sorry."Looking as gentle as usual, he curled up the corner of his mouth and put on a faint smile.After saying these words, he turned around and walked away.The door opened with Marie and Dave standing at the door.When the two of them saw Oogway, they immediately looked inside. Seeing that I stood there intact, they seemed to be relieved.Without saying anything, Oogway passed by the two of them and directly left.Soon, he disappeared into the night.Dave came in and glanced at the cell phone on the sofa. Walking up to me, he asked nervously, "Did he do anything to you?""No." I shook my head.Thinking of Oogway's words just now, I couldn't be more emoti
After confirming that he was still drunk, I felt a little glad in my heart. However, I was a little nervous as well, fearing that it would be a trap.As I was worried about what Oogway would do next, he suddenly sat up from the sofa with a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth, tilting his head, "See? After leaving me, you are living a good life. So, no one needs me.""It is not like this," I said subconsciously.However, I didn't know why Oogway would suddenly say this.Oogway had a completely blurred look in his eyes. He raised his head and looked up in my direction. It was unknown whether he was looking at me or not. Moving his lips slightly, he said, "Sure enough, no matter where I am, I'm redundant. No one will like me. Do you know? In fact, when I was young, my mother often scolded me.""She scolded me for being a good for nothing, saying that I didn't have the ability to make my father stay with us and that I couldn't do anything well. So I had been more conscientious than
There was a photo of what she had worn that day, revealing her bloody crotch.In her posts, Emily complained about her miserable situation and accused Oogway.Word by word, she recalled all she had experienced in her posts, including why she had worked as a maid in Oogway's house, how Oogway had deceived her and taken away her virginity step by step, and how he had asked others to abort her child after she got pregnant.I read the posts roughly and realized that Emily was on her own and no one was behind her.Emily, who wasn't a good writer, complained, failing to convert her meaning articulately.Moreover, she didn't know that she should divert the public's attention and mislead them. Therefore, among the comments below her posts, although some were about scolding Oogway, the ones scolding both Oogway and her made up the most part.Most of the comments read as below."Mistress! You reaped what you sowed!""You are a mistress. In that case, before being beaten up to death, everything
The result of Bryan's body check would come out about an hour later. Callen looked through it once and told us with certainty, "All the indexes of this kid indicate that he is quite healthy for the time being."Hearing what she said, I was finally at ease in my heart.Callen paused as if she wanted to say something further. However, Dave suddenly stood up, saying, "That's good. We can leave now."Realizing that Callen had something to say, I continued to ask her, "Is there any other problem with him?"Callen seemed to get Dave's point, saying, "No. However, you'd better bring him here to do a body checkup every year. If I'm still here, I can do it for you for free."Knowing that Callen wouldn't say anything if I pursued my question, I had to give up.After that, we took Bryan to the Dinosaur Museum. Rushing through the huge Dinosaur skeletons, Bryan enjoyed himself so much. While Bryan was chatting with the commentator, I saw that Dave was reading texts on his cell phone and got cl
As I looked at Oogway, the scenes where he had been kind to Bryan kept flashing across my mind.In my opinion, no matter how perverted someone was, he shouldn't have done this.He shouldn't have gone so far as to do something to a child.Thinking of this, I shook my head and stepped back to Dave's side. Looking at Oogway, I said, "I bet on the remaining 50% probability. I bet that you didn't do anything to Bryan!"Hearing what I said, Oogway smiled in satisfaction and nodded. "Okay, you can go."Seeing him like this, I was frightened. Even so, I knew that I shouldn't lose my nerves and that I should stick to my choice.Bryan's smiling face kept flashing across my mind. What if something indeed happened to my cute child within a few years?Dave knew what I was thinking.He pulled my hand and whispered in my ear, "Don't be afraid. I promise you that nothing will happen to Bryan. Just follow me.""I... "I looked at Oogway. And I saw that the look in his eyes indicated that he was happy
Looking at me, Oogway said calmly, "You can bear a child for me, can't you?""I..." I hesitated for a moment, feeling messy in my heart.Dave, who had been standing on the side, stood up and pulled me, "Oogway, you can't force others to love you. Don't you know about this?"As Oogway and Dave both pulled me, the bodyguards beat Emily so hard that she looked to be in pain.Seeing the situation on my side, she looked ferocious and said to Oogway, "Master, Master, please don't beat me. It is your child in my belly. Don't you remember that you hugged me in your arms and told me that you loved me? Are those words all fake? I gave my virginity to you. Why..."Oogway looked at her and said lightly, "Oh, the one I love is Eunice."Hearing his brief words, I got his point immediately.Staring at Oogway, I said, "You love Eunice Stanton. Emily is a substitute for Eunice?"Oogway looked at me with surprise in his eyes. Soon, he became gentle, saying, "Don't think too much. It's you that I love."
Janice opened the door but there was only one person standing at the door.As for this person, I had met him during the day... Dave Mitaka.Upon seeing Dave, I was stunned.Why did he come here?Did Oogway call him just now? It's impossible. Nor does it make sense.At this time, everyone in the room looked towards the door, looking a little surprised.Only Janice looked quite calm.Before I could think of anything, Oogway spoke first, "Dave, why are you here?"His tone was about the same as usual.Seeing that it was Dave, Emily was startled. Soon, she looked somewhat unwilling.She looked at me with jealousy and hatred in her eyes.I thought that it should be the first time she had seen Dave in person.In terms of looks, Dave was better looking than Oogway. In addition, he was young with a fierce temperament and a strong aura. Standing at the door with a black coat, he had a profound look in his eyes.Girls of Emily's age favored the kind of bossy president like Dave Mitaka the mos
