Dave was being really considerate when we had sex. Most of the time, he let me enjoy myself a few times before doing his work.Compared to a few years ago, he seemed to take more care of my feelings.I continue to read the book in my arms. I didn't raise my head until the doorbell rang.Dave stood up and went to open the door.Who was that?I stood up right away.When the door opened, I saw Desmond Gaddy standing outside.There were several lunch boxes and some vegetables in his hand.Dave let him in. As soon as Desmond came in, he began to complain, "I am really tired because of you, Dave. If others let me do this, I will definitely teach them a lesson!"After finishing his speech, he saw me.With a fake smile on his face, he said three words, "Hello, Mrs. Mitaka."Desmond's expression made me feel confused since he was acting weirdly.I saw that there were a lot of fresh vegetables, eggs, and meat in his hand.I took the initiative to say, "I'll make lunch for you.""Okay." Dave no
"Alina!" Dave's voice rang out.I looked up and wanted to look at him.Perhaps because the sunlight on snow was too glaring, my eyes couldn't help but shed tears when I looked up at him. I couldn't see anything clearly."Da.." I opened my mouth slightly without finishing his name.Dave rushed over and hugged me.Seeing the wound on my foot, he said sadly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."He repeated three times.I opened my eyes, wanting to see him, but no matter how hard I tried, my eyes were in pain and tears fell down. I couldn't see anything clearly.It's so strange.I closed my eyes and said to him, "I, there is something wrong with my eyes. They hurt.""What?" Dave was stunned."My, my eyes hurt. Something entered my eyes." I continued.I was not sure. Maybe it was the strong wind on the mountain that blew something into my eyes, which made me feel uncomfortable.Dave immediately said, "Close your eyes first, let's get inside." I closed my eyes. As soon as we entered the hou
"Now is the most dangerous time for Dave. This time, the stock price of Mitaka Group has fallen sharply. Oogway has already bought a lot of shares, and his shares are almost the same as my Dave's. But the remaining shareholders are Grandpa Mitaka's men, so they are not selling their shares, but they all asked Dave to give up his position of CEO. Dave said he needed three days."I didn't fully understand his speech however, I understood part of it."After three days, then what?" I looked at Dave."I have been negotiating with a technical team from Country Z. If they join my project, we will be able to mass produce our products this year at the fastest speed. However, they needed three days to give me an answer." Dave said.I roughly understood that this team should be the last bargaining chip for Dave to keep his position of CEO."So, why don't you go back?" I looked at Dave, feeling extremely sad."No." Dave shook his head. "The treatment for your foot can't be delayed and we have to
Dave was sending an email. It was in French.When he saw me, he reached out and pulled my hand. "I'll go to sleep after sending this email."I looked at the clock on the wall. It was already two o'clock, midnight. Because I wanted Dave to rest, I simply sat next to him and said, "Then I'll wait for you."When I finished, I felt that, as the boss of Mitaka Group, Dave must have a lot of things to do. I was being too wilful.I thought for a moment and stood up again."Forget it, you can just do your work. I'll sleep first. Don't be too late."Just as I was about to leave, Dave suddenly got up and held my waist. He directly let me sit on his lap then he kissed me on the neck. "I hide no secrets from you. You can look at my works as you like." He said, kissing me on the neck with his thin lips, "And, a beauty like you will improve my efficiency."As he spoke, his two arms circled around me and landed on the keyboard to edit the email.I took a rough look. He was writing the email to th
I pressed on the progress bar. As Oogway had said, there was a former half video that lasted more than one minute.I dragged the progress bar to the forefront. And I saw Bryan, who was still asleep. However, at this time, the camera moved to where Bryan's arm was then a thin syringe appeared. The syringe had been inserted into his blood vessel, with a drip injected in the syringe into Bryan's blood vessel.Bryan trembled viciously.The latter half of the video showed Oogway holding a knife which I had watched."What is that?" I looked at Oogway nervously."Come to my side. And never would you leave me. Then I promise you Bryan will be fine." Oogway looked at me with the look in his eyes as gentle as ever.However, at this moment, I found the gentle look in his eyes extremely terrifying.Only then did I realize that Oogway was the real devil!He was a backstabber who was good at disguising himself and harmed others cruelly without any warning.As I was somewhat hesitant, Oogway said,
"Really?" Dave sneered, stretched out his hand, and grabbed my arm, "Uncle Oogway, don't forget that at this time, as for whether you can go out or not, it is up to me."As Dave held my arm with his somewhat warm palm...I looked up at him, feeling ill at ease in my heart. However, Dave had his eyes on Oogway.Although neither of them spoke, the atmosphere couldn't be any more tenser.Everyone in the whole office was weirdly silent.After a while, Oogway curled up the corner of his mouth, revealing a faint smile, he said, "Dave, you forgot something. Bryan is still with me."Upon hearing Oogway's words...I came to my senses completely.I raised my hand, shook off Dave's hand that was holding my arm, and said to him, "Mr. Mitaka, neither Oogway nor I will welcome you to our engagement ceremony so you don't have to show up there."By saying so, I made my position pretty clear."I have a way...""Mr. Mitaka, if you hand over these things to him, you will be a poor man. Why should I entr
With the door to Bryan's room unlocked, I pushed it open and saw Bryan lying on a little bed.He was sleeping soundly under a small blue quilt.I didn't trust Oogway. Walking over, I touched Bryan's forehead, put my fingers under his nostrils, and felt if there was any breath.After confirming that Bryan was still alive and that his temperature was normal, I was finally at ease in my heart.I left Bryan's room. After closing the door, I asked the maid, "What's your name?"Hearing my question, the maid seemed to be flattered and said with a smile, "Madam, my name is Emily Welch.""Oh, okay, Emily." I sized her up and down and asked, "How old are you?"She looked young.Emily immediately replied, "I'm 20 years this year.""20 years old? You are so young? Aren't you in college?" I was a little surprised.Hearing this, Emily was a little embarrassed, "Yes, my family is poor. And my parents bore a lot of children. I have two younger brothers. So, instead of going to college, I came out to
Putting the tableware for Bryan next to me, Emily stood aside.I patted the seat next to me and said, "Come on, Bryan, sit here.""Okay." Nodding his head, he obediently came over.After he sat down, I put some food in his bowl. At his age, he knew how to eat by himself.Back in Town, Kelvin taught Bryan that no talking over meal since his childhood. So most of the time over meal, he didn't speak much.It was also because Bryan didn't say anything that the atmosphere over the entire meal was exceptionally oppressive.Neither Oogway nor I said a word. And Bryan focused on his meal.For a moment, it was surprisingly quiet in the large house.Only the sounds of chopsticks knocking against the cutlery rang out at times.After half an hour, I finished my meal.Seeing that there were only a few dishes left in Bryan's bowl, I asked him, "Do you want extra?""Yes! I want to eat that!"Bryan pointed to the green broccoli.As I was about to pick up the cutlery and put broccoli in Bryan's bowl,
Looking at Bryan, I felt a heart wrenching pain. However, I didn't know how to comfort him.At this time, Jason on the side raised his hand to rub Bryan's hair and said, "Of course, your dad won't do that. Every father in the world loves his children the most. Of course, your dad surely won't abandon you.""Is it true?""It's true!" Jason nodded with certainty.He pushed the shopping cart away.Looking at the bottle of energy drink that Dave had put down, somehow, I picked it up and put it in the shopping cart.After we went back home that night, I cooked. And Jason accompanied Bryan to build Lego.Everything was as usual.Ding. Dong.Someone rang the doorbell.Jason went to open the door. I stood aside and felt a little puzzled. After all, no one would visit me.After Jason opened the door, I saw a look of surprise on his face.The next second, I saw Dave pushing him away and stepping into the room. Looking around, he saw me, went straight over, and grabbed my arm, saying, "Let's
The next day, Jason arrived with a leather suitcase.Bryan was so happy. It was also a Friday.Originally, Jason was about to leave at night. However, Bryan insisted on not letting him go. Whatever I said, he wouldn't listen to me.In the end, we couldn't persuade Bryan, so I had to let Jason stay overnight...That day seemed to be a turning point.Since that day, Jason had been living in my home. Occasionally, he would go back to school but most of the time, he lived here.I trusted him. Usually, I would leave a few hundred dollars at home and ask him to go out to the supermarket to buy things for me.What's more, after Jason stayed here on weekends, I could go to the driving school to learn to drive over the weekends, which benefited me and significantly shorten the duration of getting a driving license.Because I could go to the driving school on the weekends, I passed the vehicle driving license exam of subject three soon. After that, I made a reservation for subject four.To cel
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
