At this time, I felt that the gentle smile on his face was a mask that indicated that he was hypnotic.

As for what was behind the mask...

I had no idea about it.

And it was because of this that I was struck with fright.

Eunice nodded faintly, "Yes, we've known each other for more than 20 years anyway. Although we weren't together in the end, I hope you'll be happy. I think Miss Jetson is a good person so I don't intend to break you up."

"Well, it's me who contacted Designer Eunice because I have some ideas about my wedding dress." I managed to put on a smile.

Hearing this, Oogway changed his mind.

He pulled the chair next to me and sat down, saying, "Oh, sorry, I was nervous. I'll wait for you."

Seeing him sitting there, unexpectedly, I couldn't say any word.

It was surprisingly quiet in the small private room.

Neither Eunice nor I said anything.

Finally, amid the depressing atmosphere, I gave in.

Curling up the corner of my mouth by force, I said to Oogway, "We have almost finished

    Kelvin sighed over the phone and said, "I know what you want to say. I just want to say that if someone starts from scratch and makes a great fortune, besides having a keen sense and a strong mind, he surely has other tricks.""You mean that...""You don't have to bother too much with the things going on in the business field. He might have been forced to do something because of the situation back then. As long as he treats you well, it's fine." Kelvin understood my concerns and added, "Okay, I'll help you take care of Bryan starting tomorrow. But if you don't get a prize in this competition, don't call me master in the future!""Yes! I'll definitely get an award!"I have been by Kelvin's side over the past few years.

    I took a lot of photos for Bryan.The commentator on the side enthusiastically told Bryan about which age these Dinosaurs had lived, what kind of characteristics they had, and so on.Initially, I wasn't interested in these things however, the commentator talked livelily.As I listened to him, I couldn't help but be fascinated by it.Staying by Bryan's side, I took pictures of him and accompanied him to listen to the commentator.It was already a bit late when we left home. By the time we were done with visiting the vast Dinosaur Museum, it had been dusk.I took a look around and found that Oogway was on the phone not far away.With Bryan pestering the commentator with questions, I went to call Oogway, saying that we were going to leave.When I got close to him, I noticed that he looked gloomy and cold. Looking at him, I couldn't help but feel a little nervous.As he heard the one on the phone talking, he didn't say anything, looking at the distance whole heartedly. It seemed that he d

    After calculating the days, I realized that I hadn't seen Dave for a long time.During this period, I originally thought I had gotten him out of my mind However, hearing that he was missing now, my heart was in a mess.I couldn't be at ease in the slightest.In spite of knowing that Oogway would be disappointed, I said, "I'm sorry. Feeling a little tired today, I want to go to bed already."I couldn't stop myself from thinking about Dave and it would be unfair to Oogway if I face him with Dave on my mind.I had to be alone for a while.Oogway, who always knew me so well, looked at me with an indifferent look in his eyes, raised his right index finger, and touched my cheek with it, smiling bitterly, "Are you worried about him?""I... ""I know you are worried about him. You want to go out, thinking you may be able to find him, right?"Oogway exposed all my thoughts.For a moment, I was like a thief being caught on the scene. Hanging my head, I couldn't say a word.I dared not look into

    When Marie and I participated in the design competition in the resort back then, she knew the relationship between Dave and I.I hesitated for a moment and couldn't help asking, "Then is there any update about him? For example, did Dave go abroad with his passport?"Marie shook her head and said, "No. It seems that it is because there is no news or channels that the Mitaka Family suspects that he has been kidnapped.""Kidnapping?" I was even more nervous.However, when it came to this matter, I indeed couldn't do anything about it."Based on my husband and his colleagues' speculation, because Mitaka Group encountered an accident before with their investments, the fire and the documents that disappeared, the stock price of Mitaka Group dropped. If the public knew Dave's situation, Mitaka Group would basically be doomed."Hearing Marie's words, I was extremely nervous.Dave was quite likely to have been schemed against and kidnapped.Ding!Ding!Ding!After hearing Marie's words, I look

    Looking at the blue sky and clouds outside the window, I said, "I eavesdropped on his conversation over the phone just now. It seems that everything happening to Mitaka Group is related to him, including the Al incident and Dave's disappearance...""What?" Marie was stunned, "How is that possible? Isn't he just the dean of Light Hospital?""No, he's also the dean of the biggest Hospital in the City. I don't know how much property he has in his name. Dave told me a long time ago that I should stay away from Oogway, saying he's not a simple person. But I didn't take his words seriously..." I paused and added, "Regarding the incident this time, Oogway is afraid that the engagement ceremony can't be held normally. So he snatched the AI documents and used it to threaten Dave."No way would I accept that the reason why everything happened was because of me."Well... How can it be? If that's the case, Oogway..." Marie paused for a moment before saying, "He is so unfathomable.""Unfathomable?

    Oogway's words deeply hurt my heart. However, I was very glad that Dave's wife was Teresa Michaelson.Fortunately, Teresa would help him. If it were me, I couldn't help him with anything.It wasn't until I got out of Oogway's car and watched him drive away that I no longer pretended to be at ease.I, who wasn't stupid, knew that even though Oogway had talked for a long time, he didn't point out the real issue.The real issue was that Dave was missing.Everything that Oogway had said had nothing to do with Dave's disappearance.What mattered now was that Dave was missing.The answer to where Dave had gone was the key to the whole issue.In front of me, a taxi pulled up on the roadside with a student getting out of it. Seeing that the taxi driver would drive away, I got into the taxi without deliberation.The driver asked, "Where are you going?"I was stunned.Yes, where am I going?I have been thinking about finding Dave just now. But where would Dave be? If the entire Mitaka Family f

    Dave's words stunned me.I didn't expect him to ask me that.After hesitating for a moment, I said, "I... I'm also worried about you."Hearing what I said, Dave slightly curled up the corner of his mouth and forced a smile, saying, "But, now, I am not worthy of your concern at all.""What on earth happened?"Only after I pulled him with my full strength did I succeed in pulling him up.Sitting on the ground, he looked at me. He used to have an indifferent and firm look in his eyes but now, his eyes looked blurred and he looked like a wandering man who had lost his soul.Seeing him like this, I suddenly felt extremely distressed for him.Dave looked up at me, got up, and took my hand, saying, "Come here."As he spoke, he pulled me to sit on the couch."What the hell is going on?"I followed him to the sofa and continued to ask.Looking at me with a slightly indifferent look in his eyes, he smiled bitterly and bowed his head, "Nothing.""You're lying!" I looked at him nervously.Without

    I looked at Dave nervously and asked with some guilt, "Does this mean that Oogway… Oogway Mitaka threatened Grandpa Jamin?"Originally, I was used to calling Oogway by his first name. In the middle of my words, I changed how I addressed him.Dave nodded slightly, "Sort of. After all, Uncle Oogway is just his illegitimate son who has been living outside for more than two decades. My grandfather only feels a little guilty about him. It's not like he has strong feelings for him.""Then I'd better go back. As long as I am engaged to him, he'll stop messing with the Mitaka Group, won't he?"As long as Oogway and I were engaged, he wouldn't harm the Mitaka Group. In that case, Dave would be in a better situation.Thinking about this, I stood up immediately. However, as soon as I stepped up, Dave pressed me back onto his lap. Looking at me with resentment in his eyes, he asked, "Are you really going to marry him?"Dave's words stunned me.Yes, I'll have to marry Oogway for real. If I was al

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.

    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

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.

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.

    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.

    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
