Hearing Oogway's words, Dave could no longer sit still.Oogway seemed to have known that Dave was a responsible boss.He looked up at Dave, "What's wrong?""Tell me, what's the condition? I can accept any condition except for the one asking for her." Dave spoke directly.However, Oogway said, "I only want her and you can take everything.""Impossible." Dave refused."Then I'm sorry." After Oogway finished his words, he stood up and let go of the hard drive in his hands...The black hard drive automatically dropped down."No!"I shouted in my mind and rushed straight over to catch the hard drive in my hands.With my body falling directly, I pressed my back against the fish tank and I fell to the side.I felt my spine in pain.I lay on the tea table in pain and dared not move. However, at this time, all the bodyguards rushed over and wanted to snatch the portable hard drive away from me.I clung onto it tightly. I wanted to give it to Dave.As soon as I reached out, the bodyguards block
"Alina."Oogway called out to me from behind.Hearing him, I shivered.I wanted to stand by Dave's side strongly but I knew I couldn't. I knew that if I dared to follow Dave, Oogway would dare to kill Dave.I've thought about it. Instead of expecting to be with Dave, I only hoped that he could live well in this world.Finally, I bent down, picked up the hard drive, and stuffed it into Dave's hands. Looking at him, I tried to look as cold as possible and said, "Mr. Mitaka, take it. I am your uncle's fiancee now. Next time you see me, remember to call me aunt."After saying that, I was about to leave but Dave grabbed my hand tightly.I looked at him, "Let go, Mr. Mitaka. Your company will be closed down soon. The way I see it, if any woman was asked to choose between you two, the answer would be self evident."I looked pretty indifferent however, my heart was bleeding. Every word I said was like a knife. Instead of stabbing Dave, they stabbed right into my heart.They stabbed me one af
Pulling my hand, Oogway asked me, "What is it?"Bleak looked at Oogway mysteriously and smiled, "Mr. Oogway, are you that interested in a matter between friends?"Hearing this, Oogway immediately looked gloomy.I wanted to know the answer to my confusion. Since I couldn't leave, I hesitated for a moment before pressing my lips against Oogway's ear and whispering, "I checked Haick's cell phone, only to find that Bleak had contacted him before he died. I want to know why."Looking at me, Oogway seemed to be a little surprised that I would tell him about this. After a while, he nodded, "Go with him."Bleak was a little surprised.When I went with him, he asked me, "What did you say to Oogway? How come he was willing to let you come with me?""I told him the truth."I had a little bit of understanding about Oogway. He seemed to be someone without any sense of securities so what he wanted to know was the truth. If I wanted to stay safely by his side, I had to tell him everything.Instead
Bleak smiled, took out his cell phone and clicked open a few pictures. Then he handed the cell phone to me and said, "These are the original pictures. Take your time to look at them. Tell me your thoughts after you are done."I started to look at the pictures and I couldn't be more familiar with Haick's style.Whether it was the effect diagrams or the arrow diagrams, they were all made by Haick. Moreover, the layout of the lowbrow room was slowly infiltrated in the blueprint.The more I looked at the pictures, the paler I looked.I couldn't believe that Haick would do such a thing."It's not the first time for him, your great and capable Haick, to do this. I've checked it. He did this for others at college. It's just that he seemed to be incompetent at that time and didn't do it very well," Bleak said."You're lying!""Am I? I got plenty of evidence to prove myself. What's your email address? I will email them to you."After Bleak said that, I dared not give him my mailbox.I was afra
Oogway parked the car in the garage next to the villa and took me to the door of the house.The lights in the room were on.The door was equipped with a fingerprint lock. Placing his finger on the fingerprint lock, Oogway pressed it once.Beep! With a sound, he pushed the door open.Three servants came over and respectfully said to us, "Master, Madam, good evening."Seeing this, I was shocked.One of the servants took out slippers from the shoe cabinet, kneeled on the ground, and carefully put the slippers on the ground for us, saying, "Please change your shoes."Seeing her doing so, I felt extremely uncomfortable, "Get up. You don't have to kneel in the future. And I will take my slippers by myself.""No, no. How can I let you do such a thing, Madam?"Kneeling on the ground, the maid dared not get up or raise her head.Her voice sounded timid, indicating that she seemed to be quite scared.Beside me, Oogway said, "Get up. All retreat first.""Yes."Hearing his words, the three maid
It wasn't until my hair was completely dry that he put down the hairdryer and said seriously, "You can go to bed now.""Thank you..."I wanted to thank him subconsciously but something came to my mind upon I finished my words.It was too late for me to shut up.Oogway directly turned me over and pressed me on the pillow, looking down at me with a bit of ambiguous warmth in his bright eyes."Could it be that..."I felt nervous. Seeing his handsome face getting closer and closer to me, I became more and more nervous.He sprayed his hot breath on my face.I closed my eyes nervously.A kiss with a bit of heat and humidness fell on my forehead.When I was waiting for more kisses from him, I heard him say, "Do you want me to continue kissing you?"I quickly opened my eyes and stared at Oogway.I saw that he had straightened his back up.Seeing me open my eyes, he sat aside, put the blanket on me properly, and got into the blanket as well. Wrapping his arms around my waist, he held me in hi
Staying by Oogway's side for three days, I have been smiling like a doll.Over the past three days, news of how Oogway and I were affectionate to each other had been covered numerous times by the media.Oogway was the perfect example of a good man.He was rich and yet not promiscuous but I knew his intentions very well.Without saying anything, he cleverly took advantage of public opinion and other things to pressure me to stay by his side.On the fourth day, the small scale auction which the Design Award held for Marie and I finally began.The relationship between Oogway and I had been crazily reposted on the Internet, attracting more people to attend this auction.After Marie and I arrived at the auction venue, we found that many reporters were already there.Marie and I followed the staff to the lounge.In the lounge, I saw Mullen Maddox, the Vice President of Design Home Furnishing which was the main holder of the Design Award. Moreover, I met their Chief Designer, Jovana Hyatt.L
The next day, Mr. Newman did not come, but he sent Johan to drive me and Marie to the holiday village.In the car, I pretended to ask Johan casually, "Mr. Johan, Mr. Newman and you said that I looked like someone. Who could that be"From Oogway, I had learned that Mr. Newman's full name was James Newman."You look like an aunt of mine." Said Johan, who was driving.His words caused a twinge in my heart.I had told Marie about my mother, so she knew my family background.Marie glanced at me when she heard that.I asked hurriedly, "Your aunt?""Yes, but I haven't seen her for a long time. I met her when I was a kid." Johan replied naturally.When I asked him this question, he didn't suspect anything."Oh... So your aunt is married?" I continued to ask."No, she was mentally ill in my impression, and she received treatment for some time before she passed away." said Johan.Mentally ill?For some reason, when I heard his words, my heart was filled with bitterness.This kind of feeling was
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
