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,

Bryan's small bedroom looked exactly like a toy house.Oogway bought him another big racing track on which he could play toy racing.Each time, he would put a few cars there and start a competition.The three of us had fun together for hours.At 10 p.m., Bryan refused to go to bed. In the end, per my repeated persuasion, he fell asleep after hearing seven stories from me.As soon as Bryan fell asleep, I walked out of the room. Before I could go downstairs, I heard Emily's voice.I stood quietly at the corner of the stairs.There was only a little lamp in the living room.The light was dim.With Oogway sitting on a single person sofa in the living room, Emily stood on the side and talked about her affairs non stop.Women all got sinking feelings. Standing there, I suddenly realized that the relationship between Oogway and Emily suddenly changed. But what was the reason for this change?I didn't know.If it got down to the fact that Emily's past had aroused Oogway's interest, I surely

In the next few days, Marie and I officially began to discuss setting up a studio.And we would start with creating a logo for our studio.In terms of the studio's logo, both Marie and I had the same idea. We made a pattern of a butterfly and worked out several designs.We quickly finalized a plan.Marie then told me she got an office with cheap rent. After going there to have a check, she found it suitable and agreed to rent it.After she showed me where the office was, I was stunned.It turned out that the office Marie had found was actually the one that Dave had once given to me.Seeing this, I subconsciously refused, "We can't set up our studio here.""Why?" Marie was a little surprised, asking, "Come in first. Do you know how convenient the conditions here are? There is good public transport. And the layout is suitable. Most importantly, the rent here is very cheap!""Then do you know why its rent is so cheap? And who rented it out to you?"As far as I knew, the owner of this hou

I was in Oogway's arms for a while before raising my head and saying, "I'm going to wake Bryan up.""You don't have to do that." Oogway grabbed me, "Leave Bryan to the maids. We will only be there for a few hours. And we will come back at noon."I turned my head and glanced at Emily.At this time, hearing Oogway's words, she, who had a fake smile on her face, said with great enthusiasm, "Master, Madam, rest assured that you can leave Young Master to me. Having been taking care of my younger brother since my childhood, I surely won't let him encounter any accidents.""Alright."Oogway answered.He seemed to be very at ease with her.I hesitated for a moment. Knowing that Oogway indeed didn't intend to take Bryan with us, I could only say, "Okay."However, Emily made me pretty ill at ease.After telling Bryan that Oogway and I had to go out for a few hours, I went downstairs and found Janice and Lacy in the kitchen.I said to them, "Oogway and I have to go out this morning and we will o

The fact that Oogway officially announced the relationship between him and me on such an important day left me no room to go back on my words.Because now everyone knew it.After the press conference was over, both Annabel and Joshua came over and greeted me respectfully, "Mrs. Mitaka."I felt depressed in my heart. But I couldn't say anything.Walking to me after finishing everything at the press conference, Oogway seemed to sense that I was somewhat unhappy. So he raised his hand and patted me on the shoulder, asking, "What's wrong? Aren't you happy? Don't you like the surprise I prepared for you?""No, I'm very happy." I chuckled.Oogway looked at me with a gentle look in his eyes. Staring at me, he curled up the corner of his mouth slightly, reaching out, and held my hand. Pressing his thin lips against my ear, he said, "I know. You are looking forward to the day when everyone in the world knows that you are Mrs. Mitaka. But I know that you are expecting another man surnamed Mita

Hearing Oogway's words, Bryan blinked his eyes and asked on the side, "What is a one night stand?"Thinking that one night stand was a word with multiple meanings, I knew that we couldn't enlighten Bryan about it with a few sentences within a short period."Okay." I agreed and looked at the things inside the bag, only to see two sets of suits for Bryan.I took the clothes out and said to Bryan, "Bryan, today, Mom and Mr. Mitaka will take you to see a lot of people. Well, speaking of these people, they may say some strange words. It doesn't matter if you don't like them. We only have to see them today. After today, we may never see them again."I knew that I shouldn't have said so to Bryan, a four and a half year old child. But I was going to take him with me to the Mitaka family house tonight. And this made me uneasy.Hearing that I said so to Bryan, Oogway squatted down, pulled Bryan's hand, and said in a gentle tone, "Don't be afraid. If there is anything, you can turn to me for hel

The engagement banquet was held in one of the hotels of the Mitaka Family.After we arrived, I saw a lot of luxury cars parked at the entrance.Oogway was an unexpected rising force to the people in the Mitaka Family and the City. Moreover, the pharmaceutical industry was an indispensable industry. As human beings' life span was getting longer and longer, naturally, we relied more and more on medicine.Admittedly, the ones mastering high end pharmaceutical technology had mastered the way to make money.From a long term perspective, the pharmaceutical industry surely wouldn't be less promising than the industries like the smartphone industry.Nobody was stupid. So a lot of people attended Oogway's engagement party for the links and building of mutual grounds.As we walked inside, every guest said in our ears, "Congratulations! Congratulations!"But I could notice that almost everyone stared at Bryan without exception.Even though we walked past them, they kept looking in Bryan's direct

My heart pounded against my ribs as I took a shaky breath, trying to steady my emotions. But as I turned to face the guests, my family, my friends, and most of all, the man standing just a few steps away, my voice trembled with overwhelming emotion."This isn’t just Kim’s wedding," I finally said, my voice thick with unshed tears. "It’s mine too."Gasps filled the air, followed by a stunned silence. Then, all at once, the crowd erupted into excitement.I heard my mother’s joyful sob, saw Kelvin blinking in surprise before his face broke into a smile. Kim squeezed my hand, winking, and Desmond chuckled beside her. But my eyes weren’t on them.They were on Dave.He stood motionless for a moment, his eyes locked on mine. Then, with the help of his crutches, he began to walk toward me, determination in every step.When he finally reached my side, he lifted a hand to my face, his thumb brushing against my cheek.“You’re crying,” he murmured, his voice thick with emotion.I laughed shakily,

Dave surely wouldn't say no to Desmond.Seeing that Dave had personally agreed, Desmond couldn't be more joyful.Hearing Desmond's words, Dave lowered his eyes slightly. Falling silent for a moment, he didn't promise Desmond immediately.I knew what he was hesitant about.In his current situation, it was difficult for him to stand on stage. He might need a crutch.As I was about to refuse on behalf of him, Dave spoke first, "Okay, no problem.""Then I'm leaving. I won't bother you two anymore!"Hearing that Dave had agreed, Desmond left.After Desmond left, I said with some concern, "Desmond is one of us. If you are in a difficult position, tell him directly.""I know." Dave looked up at the rehabilitation equipment on the side and said, "But we agreed on this a long time ago. I can't let him down."It made sense. Desmond had always been by Dave's side.They two should have agreed on this early.Dinner was a quiet affair, but in the best way possible. The kind where words weren’t alw

Dave and I lived in the town for a while.When we lived together, Dave would make love to me against my will with the excuse that it would be conducive to the recovery of his legs.Frequently, we didn't go to bed until the middle of the night. I was so exhausted that I didn't even know when he had gone to rehabilitation in the morning.One and a half months later, Dave's legs had recovered to a great extent. He could walk for a short distance without a crutch.On the last day of the rehabilitation training, the doctor told us in the rehabilitation room that Dave could return to the City, saying that he could finish the rest of the rehabilitation training at home.Hearing this, Dave bought flight tickets on the same day.We went back and packed up our things before setting off.The next night, Dave and I landed at the airport.After going back home, Dave and I didn't get Bryan back to our side for the time being. Dave had been quite busy because of his work.He worked overtime after m

Teresa walked gracefully and looked at us, asking, "What happened?"She looked as if she was watching a good show. From this, I knew that she surely had been eavesdropping inside for a while and that she surely had known what had happened by this time.Having been in contact with Teresa for a long time, these people were naturally close to her.Hearing her question, everyone told her what had happened.Teresa looked at me with an unconcealable smile on her face, saying to me, "People in this town are clean and simple. How can you act the same way as you did in the City? You are a discredit here.""He gave me the key." I defended myself.Teresa surely wasn't convinced as well, saying, "Even if you are lying, you have to make up convincing lies. Everyone knows that you and I are both kept outside here. He probably doesn't even know that you are here. How would he give you the key?"As Teresa spoke, she had a smug look in her eyes.Sure enough, after she finished her words, the ones arou

Picking up my cutlery and taking a bit of rice, I said, "I'm leaving tonight. I'll come see you every night in the future.""Why?"Hearing this, Dave was a little puzzled.I chuckled, "I won't tell you! Anyway, don't let others know that I've been here."I didn't tell him why. However, Dave was so smart. Seeing my expression, he immediately said, "You want to keep her in the dark, right?"I nodded.Since Teresa had put in so much effort to put on a show, I naturally wouldn't let her act in vain.He nodded.However, when I left, I didn't climb over the wall again. Dave found someone and gave me a key to the back door locked all year round.I left through the backdoor.The next morning, I went to the hospital as usual.Teresa wore a blue and white dress with knee length today.Sitting on the opposite side of the road, she stared at the hospital door in a daze.When I went over, Teresa looked up at me and said with a hint of disdain, "I thought you were gone.""No, I didn't."There was a

A long time seemed to have passed since we made love. However, Dave was quite familiar with my body. Hooking my arms around his neck, I looked at him and said, "I want you."I rarely said so.At this moment, I knew that by seeing what I did and hearing my words, Dave could be infinitely confident.Raising his head, Dave hadunconcealable excitement in his eyes.Reaching out and pushing aside the strands of hair on my cheeks, he said, "You have me.""You have me."After he said so, the ambiguous and warm atmosphere permeated the room.By the time I opened my eyes again, day...Someone outside knocked on the door. A nurse seemed to be calling Dave to do the rehabilitation training.I looked at Dave sleeping soundly beside me with my face slightly blushed. Last night, we had been making love for a long time. Dave seemed to have inexhaustible strength. One or two hours had passed only since we went to bed.Dave, like me, heard what the nurse had said outside. Without opening his eyes, he

After I entered the room, it was dark inside with the curtains drawn. I couldn't see anything.Wondering where Dave was, I was sure that he surely had fallen asleep.I reached out to fudge around, trying to figure out the situation inside the room.All of a sudden, I ended up touching a soft and sturdy body.I was shocked.Then, I heard Dave say, "Leave quickly. Or I'll call a bodyguard."His voice was cold and emotionless.I couldn't help but shudder.I suspected that the bodyguard had betrayed me.As I was about to say something, I heard him say, "You surely know the situation of Michaelson Group well. With a phone call from me, Michaelson Group will close down tomorrow. At that time, you may not even afford to return to the City."It turned out that he mistook me as Teresa.Sensing that he was standing, I wondered whether Dave's legs had been healed."You... ""It's me."As Dave was about to speak again, I reached out and hugged him directly.While hugging him, I touched something

Kim picked up the call and spoke in surprise over the phone, "You are making an international call.""I have something to tell you." Looking at the desktop wallpaper on my computer screen, I thought for a moment before saying, "Yesterday, I learned that Teresa and Dave might have a son and that he should be about the same age as Bryan.""What?"I could strongly sense Kim's surprise over the phone so I moved the cell phone a little further away from me.Kim continued, "That's impossible. What the hell is this? Didn't he ever tell you about this?"Holding the cell phone, I shook my head, "No, I knew it yesterday. And now I'm in a mess.""Well, regarding this..." Kim said over the phone, "In my opinion, you should ask Dave about this by yourself. After all, Teresa is good at disguising herself. You don't even know whether she is telling the truth or not. Nobody knows that she, who is a high ranking socialite in the City before, is a shrew in private, right? You'd better confirm with Dave
The CEO's Switched Bride Chapter 541
I looked left and right.The wall guarding the hospital was made up of ordinary brick. It was only more than two meters high. In fact, the wall couldn't be of any deterring effect at all.After thinking for a moment, I said to the bodyguard, "Since you won't let me in, I'll go. Please don't tell Dave that I've come here, okay?"The bodyguard didn't know that I probably would make other moves.If he knew, I wouldn't have any chances at all.Looking at me, he hesitated for a moment and nodded.Fearing that he promised me nominally, I put my palms together devoutly and pleaded, "Please don't tell him.""Well, I won't."The bodyguard promised once again.Only after that was I rest assured.Seeing that I came out, Teresa stood at the door and looked sarcastic, "I originally thought you would be greatly respected. It turned out that you were kept outside as well."Looking at Teresa, I wasn't angry, asking, "Miss Teresa, you are a socialite in the City. I remember when we first met, you talk
