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
"What's wrong?" Oogway naturally reached out and grabbed my hand.I hesitated for a moment and shook my head in the end, "I'm fine."If I told Oogway the truth on such an occasion, I surely would put myself in a difficult position.When I looked up at Dave again, I saw that he had curled up his rose colored lips into a shallow smile.Seeing that Dave was here, Jamin was much happier. He waved his hand and said, "Come on, come on. Since everyone is here, let's get the dishes served."Oogway pulled my hand.The two of us sat side by side.Before the meal started, Dave proposed first, "Uncle Oogway brought back his girlfriend home for the first time. It's such a good day. I happen to have two bottles of wine that have been stored for 30 years in the cellar. Why don't we open them?""Okay, get them over here quickly!" Hearing this, Jamin was clearly delighted.Dave took out a key from his pocket and handed it to the servant. The servant turned around and left.I wasn't good at drinking,
As soon as I arrived at the washroom on the first floor, the maid suddenly blocked the door and said to me, "I'm sorry, Miss Jetson. The washroom on the first floor is blocked. If you want to use one, please use the one on the second floor.""The second floor?""Yes, it is right on the left."The maid said to me."Oh, okay."I nodded my head in a daze and looked at the stairs in front of me.Grabbing the armrest with both hands, I groped for the staircases with my feet and stepped on them.I went upstairs this way.It took me about two to three minutes to climb up the stairs.Finally, I arrived upstairs. The rooms on both sides were identical.Thinking of what the maid had said, I turned to the left.But every door to the room on the left looked almost the same...I reached out for the innermost room and turned the doorknob, only to find that the door opened unexpectedly.Taking a look at the room vaguely, it seemed to be a bathroom.I stumbled over and found that it was indeed a bath
I knew that Jason surely knew where he should have put the Lego piece. It was just that he used this method to make Bryan think on his own.The two of them were having a good time at this time. When I entered the room, neither Jason nor Bryan noticed me.Within a day, the two of them got along with each other so well. Only then did I feel that Jason was quite reliable.I changed my shoes and walked inside.Jason quickly stood up and said, "Sister Alina, let me prepare dinner for you.""No, let me do it." I looked at my watch and found that it was past six p.m. Then I said, "Go back to school now.""Okay." Jason nodded his head.Cleaning up the Lego pieces on the ground, Jason promised Bryan that he would piece the Lego with him tomorrow and left.After I finished cooking and asked Bryan to have dinner, Bryan stared at me and said, "Mom, can you pay brother Jason more so that he can accompany me longer?"I was stunned. And I immediately wondered whether Jason had asked Bryan to say s
A week later, Jason came to my house for the first time on a Monday.I got up at 7 a.m, changed my clothes, and went downstairs, planning to cook. Ding!Ding! My cell phone rang.It was a text from Jason, which read, "Sister Alina, I'm at the door of your house. If you are up, please open the door for me."I opened the door quickly.I saw Jason standing at the door in a light blue T shirt. Rolling up the sleeves to his shoulders, he revealed his skinny and yet muscular arms. With a pair of sports shorts on his lower body, a pair of sneakers, and white socks on.The morning sunlight shone on his face and shone into his eyes, making him outgoing and bright."Why did you come so early?" I was a little surprised.Jason said seriously, "Sister Scarlett told me that you are quite busy, asking me to come here to make breakfast early. After I arrived here, fearing that you hadn't woken up, I waited at the door for a while. After hearing that there was movement inside, I sent the text."For
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. Look
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
