"Mr. Mitaka, I'm Alina Jetson."I said word by word.I warned myself in my heart repeatedly that I couldn't make a compromise.I surely couldn't compromise.I used to be in between Lita and Dave in such a ridiculous way.Now, I didn't want to be ridiculous again.Dave didn't understand the meaning of my words. He held me in his arms and said to me, "It doesn't matter who you are. I know you are Reed Defiant, which is enough."Am I Reed Defiant?Dave Mitaka, you are so wrong.I'm no longer my oldself anymore.However, I didn't reveal my true thoughts as I was being held in his arms. The gap between my strength and that of his and what had once happened made me realize that...If he wanted to make love with me, there was no way I could resist.So, I simply lay there. "Mr. Mitaka, if you want to take advantage of a helpless me, do as you wish. After all, I can't resist. However, after that, I will go to the police and report you for rape."Dave had been seducing me however, hearing my w
Looking at the homepage of my cell phone in my hand, I felt a faint uneasiness in my heart.I had fallen asleep at noon the day before. Now, I was so hungry that my stomach was growling.I went out and bought breakfast at a nearby pancake stall. After finishing breakfast, I drank a cup of coffee.As I was about to work, Dave came back.What surprised me was that instead of wearing a suit today, he wore a pair of dark colored jeans paired with a white shirt.He didn't even trim his hair.Showing up like this, he was completely different from what he used to be.He looked much more approachable.Dave looked at me and slightly curled up his lips, "I'm back."Hearing his words, I felt a little sour in my heart.Dave used to say so to me when he returned home. Hearing him say so once again, I felt as if I had traveled back in time.I opened my mouth slightly but didn't respond to him in the end. Instead, I continued to look at the screen and continue my work.Seeing that I didn't respond,
The atmosphere in the car became much more gloomy.Seeing that the situation had came to such an extent, I said decisively, "Mr. Mitaka, what exactly do you want to do? What is the point of you pestering me like this?"Holding the steering wheel with his lean and powerful hands, Dave looked ahead and didn't answer.It wasn't until the car parked next to a restaurant that he looked at me and said, "Since I found out that you are Reed Defiant, no one can change my mind. It doesn't have anything to do with who you are."After that, he got out of the car, walked to my side quickly, and opened the door to the passenger seat.I hesitated for a moment and got out of the car in the end.It happened that a taxi drove over.I stopped the taxi and directly got in.Dave didn't stop me from doing instead, he stood on the side and looked at me but I couldn't see his expression clearly.I went back to the studio.Not long after I arrived, Oogway came knocking.Holding a large lunch box in his hands,
Bang!There was a loud sound.In an instant, it was smashed into pieces.Dave finally stopped hitting Oogway. He turned to look at me, stunned."Dave Mitaka, what on earth are you trying to do?" In the end, Dave was willing to hear me out. I continued, "I'm not Reed Defiant! How many more times do I have to emphasize this? Something is wrong with your brain, right? You can live in the past however, why do you have to connect me to someone irrelevant in your past?!""I... ""I don't want to hear any other words from you! Yes, I conceived the child after Oogway and I both got drunk and had a one night stand. Even so, each life has the right to live in the world. What does the fact that I gave birth to him have anything to do with you?""Besides, you keep saying that you will love me. How self righteous are you? What kind of charm does a man like you have? You are self conceited, childish, and self righteous! I'd only be crazy to fall in love with you."Disregarding what Dave had said,
When Oogway was clearing up the broken pieces on the ground, I looked in the direction of the black coffee cup and thought for a moment, planning to put it on a cabinet on the side.If Dave comes here in the future, then...Oh, yes. He said that he wouldn't come here again."This is Dave's cup, right? I'll give it to him when I have time."Oogway came over, took the cup over from my hand, and put it back in the box where the cup had been placed.He could always read my mind.It wasn't until I saw the swelling on his face that I realized Dave had beaten him up just now. I walked over to him and touched his face, asking with concern, "Does it hurt? I'll help you relieve your pain with ice."The refrigerator in the studio had an ice maker in it.Fetching some ice out of the refrigerator, I put some ice in Oogway's handkerchief he brought with him and relieved his pain with cold compresses.With Oogway sitting on the couch, I sat on the side and carefully helped him relieved his pain wit
Looking at Oogway's back, I felt somewhat disturbed in my heart.If I decided to be with Oogway, at this age, I would inevitably be intimate with Oogway.Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little confused in my heart.A week later, I was almost done with the landscape design. After communicating with Patrick, I could get the indoor design started.Speaking of indoor design, I was only in charge of a small part of it.It would take me two weeks to finish it.That afternoon, as soon as I came out of the Institute of Architecture Design, I saw Oogway standing at the entrance.Standing against the sun, he, who wore a white shirt, looked handsome and warm.When we had breakfast, I told him I would come here in the afternoon. I didn't expect that he would come here to wait for me.Walking up to him quickly, I asked, "How come you are waiting for me here?""Yes." Oogway took the documents over from my hand and asked me gently, "Do you have time tonight?""What's the matter?"In the
After I put the dress on and came out, I looked at myself in the mirror.Well, the pearl of this dress looked quite eye catching.If I hadn't seen the supreme Pearl, I probably would have thought that this dress wasn't bad. However, I had seen it, thinking that whether it was in terms of color or smoothness, the pearl on the dress in my hand had been greatly overshadowed.However, to stop Oogway from spending big, I pretended to like the dress very much, saying to the lady, "I will take this set."Oogway stood next to me without saying anything.After I changed my clothes and came out, I was going to hand the dress to the lady and ask her to pack it up, only to hear her say, "I am done packing it up. Your boyfriend has paid the bill."As she spoke, she handed the packed dress over to me.I looked down.The one lying inside was the dress of the limited edition."No need. I will get the ordinary one."I refused. After all, I knew that pearl could make a piece of clothing more valuable b
Seeing this, Jamin nodded repeatedly and said, "Alina, my Oogway is introverted. Even so, once he decides that he loves someone, he won't change his mind. He surely won't let you down. So, you shouldn't let him down either.""Father, it is a matter between us. Please don't put pressure on her."Oogway spoke up for me.His consideration did move me.Hearing his words, Jamin could only nod his head, "I trust your judgment. This Alina is a good girl at first sight. I... I will be waiting for the day when you guys bear a strong and fat grandson for me. I will be excited if it could be as soon as possible."Oogway and I looked at each other, then realized that although Dave had told Jamin about the relationship between Oogway and me…He didn't mention Bryan to Jamin at all.Even so, neither Oogway nor me said anything more.After a while, Oogway's sister, Anita Mitaka, arrived.It was the first time I had seen Anita.She, who was short haired, came in wearing a suit and high heels. Althoug
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
