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
The door to Oogway's apartment was half open.I pushed the door open and went in directly.Oogway sat on the sofa with a medicine kit and drugs on the tea table."Well, you are...""I am organizing the medicine kit." As Oogway spoke, he took out a bottle of ointment from the medicine kit, patted the sofa next to him, and said, "Come on. Sit here.""Okay."I did as he said obediently.Based on what Dave had said, the way I thought it, there was a 90% probability that I would marry Oogway. In that case, instead of resisting, I'd better accept it so Oogway probably wouldn't hurt Bryan.Oogway removed my slippers and checked my ankles respectively, saying, "It seems you are fine.""Yes." I nodded, "You're too concerned about me."Raising his head, he looked at me, "I will always put your business as top priority. No matter how petty it is, I will prioritize it."His words made me nervous.I looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Oogway, do you... do you love me?"Oogway was st
Soon, we arrived at the floor where Jessica's ward lay. When we went over, a nurse happened to come out of it. Upon seeing us, she greeted Oogway respectfully, "Dean Oogway.""Yes." Oogway nodded and asked, "How's Miss Jessica?"After Jessica was transferred here, Oogway completed the registration for her under the name of Jessica Drake.As for this, I didn't raise any objections about it. Because in my opinion, the Newman Family no longer regarded her as a family member.The nurse replied, "The patient has fallen asleep. I measured her temperature just now. It's normal. This afternoon, we examined her, only to find that she is seriously malnourished. She suffers from a low degree cataract in her eyes. More heinously, there are parasites inside her body. Besides..."Standing there, the nurse told us about the situation of Jessica roughly.Hearing the ins and outs, Kelvin looked serious on the side.Oogway asked, "Can we go in and have a look at her?""Yes. But she has fallen asleep. H
Kelvin spoke loudly over the phone.Moreover, it was pretty quiet inside the car. Oogway seemed to hear his words and glanced at me out of the corner of his eyes, "Is Mr. Kelvin coming over?"I nodded.Oogway immediately said, "Then I'll arrange a room for him on the top floor of the rehabilitation center.""Well, sorry to trouble you."I was grateful for Oogway's attentiveness.As we were about to arrive home. I suddenly remembered something and said to Oogway, "Can you take me somewhere?""Yes, I can." Oogway nodded.I got an address online and sent it to him.Oogway immediately turned the car around and drove there with me.As he turned the car around, he raised his hand and looked at me with some displeasure, saying, "In the future, wherever you want to go, just tell me directly. You don't have to ask my opinion first. I will always be available for you."I nodded. Only after that did I tell him where I was going.It was a light and textile market selling cloth and hand made craf
I went up and supported Jessica readily. Fearing that she wouldn't accept it, I said, "Aunt, can I bathe you? By the way... I can bathe your baby too.""It sounds good!" Jessica accepted it happily.All the nurses looked at me with strange looks.Ignoring the looks, I stepped forward and helped Jessica take a bath.The rehabilitation center of the Way Hospital was in a good condition. There was a Jacuzzi. After I finished pouring the water into the bath, I let Jessica sit inside.I cleaned up the doll first. Seeing that, Jessica became quite obedient.I bathed her with scented soap first and then rubbed her with a bath towel little by little.It had been a long time since Jessica took a bath, making her body covered with a layer of shell like and hard skin. Seeing so, I asked Oogway to fetch me some white vinegar. After that, I bathed her bits by bits.Sensing that the water turned cold, I scooped the cold water out with a basin and added hot water in.Because it had been years sinc
I stood still and said to her, "We won't do that. We... we'll transfer you and your child to a better place. She... She..." I hesitated for a moment and said, "She is all grown up. And she will have to go to school soon. It's not good for her to be here. She has to go to a better place where there are teachers to impart her knowledge, which is good for her."Upon hearing this, Jessica stared at me with her pair of clear and bright eyes as if she had understood my words and suddenly became as obedient as a child, saying, "Really? Is it true that someone will teach her?""Yes, it is true. The teacher is great and experienced. Any child who follows him can learn a lot and become smart." I tried to persuade her.Jessica nodded desperately, "Okay, okay. That will be so great." She looked at the doll in her arm, "Reed, did you hear that? You can learn soon.""Yes, yes." I echoed. And my tears kept falling.Oogway patted me on the shoulder and said, "Come on, let's go transfer her to another
The nurse took us inside and said, "To be honest, before you, nobody visited the patients here. Generally speaking, the reason why people send patients here is that they have a guilty conscience. They are too embarrassed to kill them and yet find them a burden. So they send them here and pay for their stay here to keep their conscience at bay."The more the nurse said, the more upset I felt.It was quiet on the fifth floor as well.I saw that there was a small window on the door of each ward. With the window high up on the door, someone my height couldn't see what was inside.However, Oogway was taller. He looked around with a frown and a dignified look on his face.Seeing him look like this, I was worried."Bang!" When we were going, a sound rang all of a sudden.I was so frightened that I shrank backward and looked at the door where the noise came from, only to find a face attached tightly to the window on the door.The face was black, dirty, and skinny.The pair of eyes above were
Oogway and I arrived at the gate together.As expected, there was a security guard at the gate . We went over and saw the old security guard laying there in a thick military green overcoat, listening to music.The sound of the music was quite loud.It wasn't until we called him for a long while that he heard us.Looking at us in discontent, the old guard got up and opened the window of the gatehouse, leaving it ajar."Hello, we want to...""No visit is allowed during the New Year."As soon as I opened my mouth, the guard snapped. After that, he closed the window.He was afraid that we would harass him. Then he locked the window from inside.I became anxious all of a sudden.Oogway beside me wasn't in a hurry at all.He reached out, took out his wallet from his pocket, and took out a stack of pink banknotes before putting them in front of the window.The security guard's eyes lit up as soon as he saw the money. Instead of opening the window, he came out directly from the gatehouse, o
I glanced at it and found that there seemed to be an inkstone in the first box.But what was different was that the inkstone wasn't black but red.I was confused. However, as soon as the Master of the Newman Family saw this, his hands began to tremble. Placing his hand a few meters away from the inkstone, he seemed to intend to touch it but dared not do so.After a long while, he asked, "Is this for me?""Of course, it is a red silk inkstone I got by chance. I don't know about this kind of inkstones. It will be a waste if I keep it by my side."Oogway said casually.Although he spoke lightly, I could tell that this inkstone should be quite rare."Thank you, Mr. Oogway." When the Master spoke, he had been staring at the inkstone. It wasn't until a long time later that he gently caressed it with his hands.His expression showed that he loved it so much that he couldn't bear to let it go.After that, Oogway said to the maid, "Open this too."Hearing his words, the maid opened the secon
There was a cold and determined look in his eyes. Confirming that he wouldn't say it, I wouldn't force him further.Moreover, I knew well that I couldn't control what they were going to do.What I could do was to protect Bryan well in case he would get hurt.I nodded lightly, "Okay. Then I'll go and accompany Bryan."As soon as I intended to open the door, Dave directly pulled me from behind with force. I was caught off guard and fell backward.The next second, I directly sat in Dave's arms.My face turned red. And I said, "No." I struggled to get up. However, Dave restrained me firmly in his arms and placed his other hand on my waist. Holding my waist with both hands, he said to me, "Turn around.""No. I'm leaving.""You can't." Dave refused.I closed my eyes, thinking about Oogway's words and my own identity.Although I wanted to be closer to Dave, I couldn't do it with my identity.I was Oogway's fiancee. Regardless of the excuse, the identity, or the reason. I made up my mind,
It was night. Even so, I could clearly feel Oogway kept staring at me closely with his pair of profound eyes.Oogway patted me on the shoulder and left.After he left, Bryan, who had been following Dave, suddenly ran over, "Mom, let's set off fireworks together!""Ah... Okay." I nodded.At this moment, Jamin, who had been standing outside all this while, turned around and entered the room.In the blink of an eye, only the three of us were outside the house.We set off most of the fireworks. By the time it was 1 a.m., Bryan was so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyes. Thus, we stopped setting off the fireworks.The maid took the fireworks into the room.Holding Bryan in my arms, I said to Dave, "Then we will go back."After that, I turned around, intending to ask the driver to drive us back, only to be suddenly pulled by Dave. Then, I heard his magnetic voice, "Stay here tonight."My heart thumped."Being here without Oogway.. Won't that mean..."In fact, I didn't want to leave a
