We had a meal in a seafood restaurant. Although I was despised by Blue and Lita and also disgusted by Dave, I stayed close to Dave all night as if I were declaring sovereignty.When the dinner was about to end, I left with the excuse of urging the waiter to send us water.As soon as I came out, Lita followed me out.Lita quickly caught up with me, grabbed my wrist, and said with a grim smile, "Reed Defiant, you assume that you can be Mrs. Mitaka with ease?"I turned to look at her, "Hmm?"I had seen all kinds of evil people in prison and I just found her ridiculous looking like this."Don't assume that Dave likes you and intends to be with you in the future since he respects you. Let me tell you, you should stop day dreaming about it!"Lita deliberately lowered her voice.I looked at her and blinked as I said, "Lita Defiant, I hope you can understand that it's not me who wants to be Mrs. Mitaka. It's Dave who insists that I should be his wife. If you can let him divorce me, I will be

The police arrested the worker who had placed the high concentration into the building.I sat in the detention center and watched the worker pointing to me, saying it was I who had asked him to do this.He said with tears about how he came from the countryside and had three children, two of whom were twins freshly delivered by his wife. Besides, his wife got sick as soon as she gave birth to the babies and his parents were seriously ill. He had agreed to do it because he was possessed for a moment and needed the money.After hearing that, the policemen glanced at me.They looked at me as if they were looking at a heinous criminal.No. If I had done this, I would indeed be a heinous criminal.I saw the worker kneeling on the ground and begging the police to let him go, saying he was the breadwinner of his family. If he went to jail, his family would be doomed."I didn't!" Finally, I couldn't bear it anymore. I stood up and refuted,"I never asked you to do such a thing!"I didn't want t

As I raised my head and saw that Dave and Lita were not far away from where I was, I suddenly ran up and rushed to Dave as if I had gone crazy!Plop! Kneeling in front of him, I grabbed his trousers and pleaded, "Mr. Mitaka, I didn't hurt her. I didn't do anything. I beg you. Believe me this once. As long as you withdraw your complaint, I promise I won't be back to this City for the rest of my life. I'll leave and never look back. I promise I won't show up in front of the both of you again for the rest of my life!"I was not supposed to be that cowardly however the horrible memory of my previous days in prison as well as the fear made me fail to control myself.At this moment, my cowardice overwhelmed me!The police quickly caught up with me and wanted to pull me away.I still held Dave's legs tightly and begged him, "Mr. Mitaka, I promise. Please withdraw your complaint. Please! I beg you. I have lost a child in prison. I don't want to go to prison again. I beg you!"When I said thi

A man, who was dressed in a well fitting suit, stood there, looking so elegant and beautiful.It was Dave Mitaka.Originally, I thought he was standing outside but to my surprise, he reached out and pushed the door open!"Dave Mitaka!" I stared at the man in front of me as my eyes were filled with hatred. Then I clutched at his arms tightly, "Why did you bring me here?"The man looked at me and said nothing.It was probably due to the dark night that I couldn't see his expression clearly at all.I grabbed him and cried.I kept telling him that I didn't kill anyone. Nor did I harm Lita. I begged him to believe me and let me go.It was unknown how long had passed. The man suddenly reached out and hugged me.He touched my head and said, "I believe you. I will take you out of here right away.""Really?" I grabbed him and almost couldn't believe what I had heard.I was leaning in his arms. I did so probably because I felt so warm in his arms...I fell asleep unconsciously.By the time I wo

The air outside calmed me down.Dave lowered his head and looked at me under his feet. After a moment of hesitation, he suddenly bent down and picked me up!"Put me down!" Only then did I notice the car was parked at the door of his villa.He ignored my resistance and held me in his arms as he went inside.He carried me upstairs, all the way to the bedroom. After throwing me on the bed, he pressed himself down on me.He grabbed my neck tightly with one hand and looked down at me, "Mrs. Mitaka, where do you want to escape to?""I... Ahem."He was pinching my neck so hard. I wanted to say something but I coughed violently."Huh?" Dave raised his sword like brows slightly.Although he was expressionless, his cold eyes were dark as if a storm was brewing inside.With a lift of his hand, he tore my T shirt open!"No!"I knew what he was going to do and I didn't want to!I couldn't resist him!Knowing that fighting him was in vain, in the end, I had to lay still.I had to let Dave do whatev

The next morning, I was awoken by the sound of a ringtone. It wasn't my cell phone but Dave's that was ringing.I didn't move then I heard Dave getting up to answer the phone.As soon as he picked up the call, Lita's voice came from the other end of the phone.Because the room was very quiet. I clearly heard her anxious voice, "Why did you let her out without telling me? What if she hurts me and our baby in the future again?""She won't."After saying that, Dave hung up the phone.I wondered what he meant by that.Half an hour later, I pretended to get up, only to realize that my clothes had been changed into pajamas.When I went downstairs, I saw that the servants had already prepared breakfast.When the servants saw me coming down, they greeted me respectfully, "Madam."Dave raised his hand, "You must be hungry. Come and have breakfast."I looked at him and was in a trance for a moment.Dave didn't have a cold look on his face anymore. Why did I feel he was being somewhat kind to m

I stared at the closed door blankly. For a moment, I thought I was hallucinating.Did he say that he was going to accompany me?I came to my senses. He was just afraid I would run away so he just wants to keep an eye on me.I chased after Dave and said to him who was now downstairs, "No need, Mr. Mitaka. I won't go anywhere. Don't worry."I emphasized the words 'Don't worry.' Then, I went back to the bedroom.That day, Dave stayed at home for the whole day and so did I but the two of us didn't say a word.Originally, I thought the day would pass by just like that but in the evening after dinner was served, as soon as I sat down, Dave's cell phone rang.He picked up and called out, "Grandpa." Then he got up and headed for the living room to continue his call.I looked over and noticed there was a gloomy look on his face.After a while, before I could dig into my food, Dave came over and said, "Get changed. We are going to Grandpa's house."I responded, "Why do I have to tag along?""B

I found Lita wasn't logical at all. There was no way to communicate with her at all.But Lita did not give up, "Am I the bad nut here? Do tell me then. Who paid the money for you? I want to see who will be so selfless and rich as to help others they don't know!""Although you are young, you have your mind in the gutter." As soon as Lita finished her words, a man's voice came from the garden.I turned around and saw a man walking out from behind the flower wall of the garden. He looked to be in his thirties and he was dressed in a light colored casual suit with his hair combed back neatly. His dark eyes looked a little sharp with the pair of rimless glasses he had on."Who are you?" When Lita saw him, she was obviously a little flustered. After all, the conversation between her and me just now couldn't be heard by anyone from the Mitaka Family."Third Young Master, here you are."As soon as Lita finished her words, the old housekeeper of the Mitaka Family ran over from a distance to m

I went to Judith's home. I didn't know why I felt more relaxed here than elsewhere, as if I belonged here.Or, only in here, I can really let go of things.I was preoccupied with the matters concerning Judith's death.I called Marie and told her all the ins and outs of this matter. I wanted to see if her husband Jerrold can check whether there was any report about this.After that, I searched for the list of associate directors of the Hospital.I had also come in contact with grandma's attending doctor at that time, so I should have some impression.There were four associate directors in the hospital. I scanned them roughly and soon focused on a photo of an associate director named Matt Parma!'That's him!' I told myself!"My grandmother's attending physician was this man."I looked at the doctor's resume from the Internet again. He was the youngest among all the associate directors. In comparison to other associate directors, he should be the most inexperienced.How could he be an a

We walked to my house. I took the elevator to go up, and Dave followed.When I reached the upper floor, I did not look at my door first, but at Oogway's.Oogway and I started from being neighbors. Then I thought perhaps everything was not just a coincidence.It was planned by him.I walked out of the elevator and opened the door with the key. Then I went in and found the Property Ownership Certificate.There was a black cloth bag put together with the Property Ownership Certificate, which stored the pink necklace that Dave had given me.I hesitated for a moment, and then put it into my bag.This necklace was so expensive. Maybe I could help Dave by selling it.When I went out, Dave was waiting at the door. He looked at me with a solemn face. "Have you made up your mind? If you don't want to sell it, I can...""Let's go." I interrupted him. "I don't want to live next door with him anymore."'He' meant Oogway.Dave didn't say anything else.He accompanied me to the Real Estate Bureau wi

It took about half an hour for Comfort to come out.As soon as she opened the door and saw me standing there, she was scared to take a step back and barely stood still. Then she looked at me and said with impatience, "What are you doing? Why don't you sleep in the middle of the night!?""Tell me clearly what you just said. What was wrong with grandma's tube?"'Today, if I don't figure this out, how can I sleep! That was what I thought.As I spoke, I switched on the lights in the corridor.The orange light shone on Comfort's face.The woman's face was still pale because of the shock. She said impatiently, "I don't know. You need to ask your father.""I'm asking you!" I threatened her. "I still have the video of you that year. Listen, anyway, you know what's my situation now. I don't want to be alive anymore. I'm not afraid to announce it in public and have a life and death struggle with you!"In fact, I was not sure if the video of Comfort I took was still there.But I still needed to

Judith's home looked the same as before, and the furniture wasn't changed, which made me gratified.After entering, Comfort said, "You can stay. I'll come back tomorrow morning. I'll go first.""Don't you want to stay here?" I looked at Comfort in surprise."I, I have a place, I don't live here!" Comfort's face was full of panic, as if she was afraid that I would ask more.At that moment, my mind suddenly became clear. I walked over and grabbed Comfort's hand, "No! If you want the exchange for my apartment, you must stay here with me for the night!""I won't stay!" Comfort shook off my hand with all her might!Her eyes were filled with fear!It was as though she resisted being here!What was she afraid of?Even though I didn't have a clear head on this day, my mind was unusually clear at this very moment.I pulled her and said, "No, then I won't do the exchange."Hearing this, Comfort immediately hesitated and begged, "I, I want to go back and take care of my husband...""You can ask

My heart went from anger, to panic, to numbness.In the end, I didn't even know when this farce would end.I didn't know how many tears I had shed.However, when I came to myself, the people around me seemed to have dispersed, as if the police had come to stop them.In the end, I was left alone.I felt like I was deprived of all my feelings.I couldn't feel sadness, anger or grief.I stood up. I was pointed at by passerbys when I made my way back, finally, I arrived at the No.1 on foot.Along the way, I was in a daze.I didn't quite remember what happened.I went home, took a shower, changed my clothes, and sat down on the sofa.My brain was in a mess.I completely seemed to have entered a state where I couldn't help denying myself.As I sat there, all I thought about was... all these things happened because of me.Because of me, the studio was destroyed.Because of me, all the orders had been cancelled.Because of me, my mother's life was exposed to the public.Because of me, Dave's

At nine o'clock the next morning, I found Harry's number on my phone. He was my attorney in the case of Helen.In fact, as long as the details of the trial and evidence would go public, things on the Internet would be refuted.I called Harry, and made an appointment at ten o'clock in the morning in a cafe near their Law Firm building with him.After hanging up the phone, I went out.Dave was very busy recently, so I did not disturb him. I took a taxi and went to the place that I had appointed with Harry.After arriving at the entrance, I paid the taxi fee and went upstairs to wait for him.Since it was in the morning, the cafe was almost empty. So I chose a corner, ordered a cup of coffee, and sat down calmly.It was only 9:30 a.m.I sat there, thinking over and over again about how to speak to Harry later.If Harry would refuse me or hesitate later, I would have to say something to move him.I practiced countless versions in my mind.At 10 a.m. I saw Harry opening the coffee shop's d

At this time, Marie's phone rang, after listening on for a while, she turned around and went out with a dignified look on her face.I followed Marie out and heard her. "Ms. Sarah, please listen to my explanation. This is an unwarranted rumor. Our designers are not such kind of people. Excuse me, Mrs. Sarah..."She didn't go on meaning the other party hung up.Marie put the phone in her pocket and turned around with disappointment.She looked at me and immediately squeezed out a smile. "The last project has been cancelled, too. It's good. We can rest for a while."Her words made me even sadder.All of this was because of me."I'm sorry. Originally, I thought it was only my own affair, but this also affected the people around me.I went back and Scarlett said, "Alina, why don't you also hold a press conference like Teresa?""No." Marie said behind, "Do you think the Michaelson family opened the press conference at random? They have already distributed questions to the journalists, and

I hadn't used my mobile phone for the past few days. I seemed to be used to it. Although I had my mobile phone, I didn't have time to check out the news.What did they find again?I tried my best to suppress the fear in my heart and clicked open the news with trembling hands.Looking at the news, it was just as I thought.Someone went to visit Helen, who seemed to have gone crazy, and said I killed Lita on the yatch.The man recorded a video stealthily. On the video, Helen only showed half of her face as she said with tears, "In order to let her let Lita off, we gave her all our property. But Reed was too hard hearted, she still didn't agree. She watched Lita being burnt to death in the end!"All the foul mouthed comments about me spread on the Internet.Netizens were crazyly searching, and they found out Lita's disappearance, Dave and Teresa's wedding, and I who should already be dead.This time, every line was actually very easy to piece together to form a complete clue!Because o

The four of us went silent at the same time.Upon seeing this, Desmond had no choice but to stand up. "You can continue. I'll go in and get some drinks."Although he had left, we did not continue either. I was bored for a while so I planned to go to the stern to see what they had gained from fishing.I took a few steps to the stern and saw that only Jerrold and Dave sat there.I was afraid of scaring away the fish, so I kept quiet.Before I got close, I heard Jerrold say, "He has spent a lot of money on this issue. If there is no higher bargaining chip, it will be very difficult to suppress this issue.""What's the price?""At least this." Jerrold said and raised his hand. I thought it was five million, and then I heard him said, "Fifty million."Hearing this number, I was astonished to breathless.Originally, I thought it was already expensive, but I did not expect Jerrold to say, "And now you know the things in which people are most interested are not only the private life of stars
