2024-04-28 18:44:54Dave was staring at his bride from the corner of his eyes, he was glad that he'll be getting married to the most beautiful lady in town.
"Do you, Lita Defiant, take Dave Mitaka to be your husband?" The priest asked in a loud voice.Reed didn't answer, her heart was beating so fast and she was sweating profusely.Her mother has strictly warned her not to take her veil off until she gets to Dave's home.She was already imagining what Dave will do when he finds out the truth, what will happen to her when he finds out he was married to her, the ugly one and not her beautiful sister.Dave frowned deeply, his bride was taking so much time to answer and it was getting on his nerves, he was a man with little patience.The priest cleared his throat loudly, then he repeated his question."Do you, Lita Defiant, take Dave Mitaka to be your husband?"Dave nudged her arm, bringing her back to reality."I I do." Reed stuttered.A small smile appeared on Dave's lips."Do you, Dave Mitaka, take Lita Defiant to be your wife?.""I do." Dave said hastily."Do you vow to be with each other for the rest of your lives, for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish each other, until death do you both part?""I do." Dave answered."I do." Reed answered.The priest smiled."I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may now kiss the bride." The priest said, and the congregation began cheering and clapping so loud"You may kiss the bride." The word kept on ringing in Reed's ears as she slowly turned to face Dave."Oh no, I can't let this happen, Dave must not see my face, not yet." She panicked.Dave's face was void of any emotions, one couldn't tell what was going on in his mind.He slowly took the hem of Reed's veil and was about to lift her veil up when Reed held his hand, stopping him from lifting her veil any further.Dave furrowed his brow in confusion, isn't she supposed to let him lift her veil, why is she stopping him."P please." Reed stuttered."What's wrong with you?" Dave said softly.His voice was deep and calm, but you could still note the authority his voice carries."The new bride must be so shy." Someone yelled from the crowd."Is that why you're preventing me from lifting your veil? Because you're shy?" Dave asked.Reed nodded.He sighed, then he let go of her veil.Dave then bent to whisper something in her ear. "You can stop me from lifting your veil now, but you won't be able to stop me from claiming you when the time comes." He said, then he stood straight.Reed's heart skipped a beat, she couldn't tell what he meant by those words.She wasn't in the right frame of mind at the moment, she was wishing she could turn back the hands of time, she wouldn't have helped Lita in the first place.Her mother and father didn't even come to the wedding, but she must have guessed Dave didn't care.Maybe he didn't notice, because he didn't ask her anything about them, or even if he had noticed, maybe he didn't just want to ask, after all, he must be thinking he's got what he wanted, so there's no need to bother himself about asking for her parents.Sadly, he got what he wanted, but not who he wanted..........................Reed paced around the room, she was still in her wedding dress, and she hadn't taken off her veil either.She wasn't at rest, she knew Dave would be there at any moment, and she dreads what he'll do to her.The door opened, and she flinched, she turned to see Dave, who stood at the door, staring at her quizzically.He must be wondering why she's still in her wedding dress.Dave came in, then he closed the door, he made sure to lock it.He took slow strides towards her, and Reed moved back in fear."What's this, are you afraid of me now?" He asked as he slowly approached her."Weren't you the one who was flirting with me the last time we met, you even let me romance your body.""What!!" Reed yelled, surprising Dave.She stopped moving backwards, and Dave rushed to stand in front of her."Don't act like you don't remember."The last time he met Lita, they had both done some things, he had asked to make love to her, and she consented.He wasn't surprised when he saw she wasn't a virgin.He was a bit pained by that fact, but he didn't seem to mind, after all, he'll be getting married to her, and he'll be the only man she ever sees.But he was surprised she didn't let him kiss her at the altar, and he was still surprised to see that she's still in her wedding dress.He was expecting her to have showered and be ready for him."Why are you still in your wedding dress?" He questioned with a frown.Reed toyed with her fingers nervously.Dave sighed when she didn't answer, he swiftly grabbed her veil and made a pull for it, but Reed immediately grabbed his hand."What is wrong again? You've got to stop doing this, don't forget, we made love the last time we saw each other, stop acting like this will be the first time you'll be seeing me."Reed couldn't believe her ears. Lita claims to be madly in love with Michael, but why did she sleep with Dave if she was in love with Michael?"I'm taking off this veil like it or not." Dave said, and before Reed could do or say anything else, he pulled off her veil, exposing her face.

The veil fell from Dave's hand when he saw Reed's face. "W.. who are you?" He asked in shock as he moved back a bit. Reed bit the bottom of her lips nervously. She raised her head to look at Dave, and he looked like he'd just seen a ghost, or rather, he'd just seen the most ugliest looking person ever. "I asked you a question, who are you?" He barked, causing Reed to let out a fearful yelp. "Where is Lita? Why are you here instead of her?" "I... I'm her elder sister." Reed stuttered. "What?" Dave said in shock. Reed wasn't surprised that he didn't know her, after all, her parents never allowed her to meet him whenever he comes by. They believe if he sees her, it'll bring them bad luck, so whenever Dave comes to see Lita, Reed was asked to stay in her room and not come out. "S s sister?" "Lita has no sister, who the fuck are you?" "I told you, I'm her elder sister, Reed Defiant." "This is crazy, I can't believe this." "Where's Lita? Why are you here instead of her?" Dave

Dave grabbed Reed by the waist and pulled her closer to him. Reed let out a fearful yelp, as she struggled to free herself from his hold. "You're not even that beautiful." Dave said, ruining his fingertips down her face. "But that doesn't mean I won't have your body." "And don't even think of struggling, you should only do as you're told, otherwise, you'll regret it, I swear you'll regret it." He said manically. "P.. please." Reed begged, but he pushed her on the bed and got on top of her. She tried pushing Dave off but he slapped her again."Didn't I say you shouldn't dare to struggle." Dave said darkly. "Don't make me order for you to be flogged." He threatened. The thought of getting beaten scared Reed, she had no choice but to give in, all she could do was cry silently. Dave got off her, then he pulled her up. "Strip." He ordered. *W... what?" Reed panicked. "If I have to repeat myself, it'll be with a slap." He barked. Reed's hand went to her back, she was trying to op

The next day, Reed woke up from the pain, feeling like the lower part of her body had been ripped apart. She couldn't believe what had happened last night.On her wedding night, Dave had treated her as if she was his enemy and took her virginity. What Dave had done had ruined all her previous fantasies.The bed side beside her was already cold. A drop of scarlet blood on the snow white sheet looked particularly irritating.Reed got up and went to the bathroom to take a bath despite her pain. After freshening up, she looked around Dave's room for a new bed sheet and changed the sheets.She then proceeded to walk out of the room heading downstairs.Standing at the entrance of the stairs on the second floor, Reed saw Dave, sitting behind the dining table with a file in his hands as well as having breakfast.The golden sunshine in the morning shone on his side through the half opened window, making him look warm and holy.Over the past years he had been visiting the Defiant family home, R

Reed squatted in the cormer and said nothing. Because of the pain, her spine was hurting and she was afraid her dad would hit her again which might end up with her breaking her spine.Dave glanced at Reed. To her surprise, a bit of complex emotions flashed through Dave's black eyes.After a long while, he said. "Let's talk about it later."After, the Defiant couple, Lita and Dave sat in the living room.When Mr. Defiant saw Reed, he scolded, "Go upstairs right now.! I'll hit you again if I find you here in the next minute!"Reed saw Lita sitting next to Dave while holding his arm intimately. The two of them held each other's hand with their fingers intertwined.This was how a couple should look like....Enduring the pain, Reed looked at the stairs in front of her which seemed like a tall ladder in the air.Every step she took, the pain from being hit earlier made her sweat. However compared to the physical pain, the psychological one was more painful.Althought she had no idea how thin

It seemed that Lita and her mother didn't expect Reed to wake up. Although the lamp light was dim, Reed could tell that the looks on their faces were not good.Lita's mother put on a fake smile and asked, "Reed, how is your injury? Do you need to go to the hospital?"If it were in the past, Reed would have been moved. But now she was indifferent.Seeing her indifferent expression, Lita, who certainly knew that Reed had heard all their conversation, interrupted her mother directly. "Mom, you don't have to act anymore. Judging from her tone, she, the wild dog, knows what's going on."'A wild dog.'Hearing Lita call her a wild dog so smoothly, she knew that they must have nicknamed her like that earlier on.'A wild dog?' Reed endured the pain, walked to the empty sofa, and sat down. Then she deliberately said, "Even so, I am a wild dog who has 4% shares."Sure enough, as soon as she said that, Lita's mother understood what she meant. She scolded, "Reed, this family has been raising you

The male voice sounded like the tune of a cello, which was low and pleasant.Reed who was drunk was picked up by the man. He tossed her onto his shoulders like a sack of patotoes and walked out of the bar whiles Reed was sccreaming to be put back down."Put me down!""Put me down!"The man threw her onto the passenger seat. For a moment, Reed who was drunk succumbed to her imaginary thoughts. Aiming at the thin lips in front of her, she kissed him immediately.Reed who didn't know how to kiss, kissed him in a stiff manner. Her lips were on his lips for only a second, when he pushed her away hurriedly. Then he said in a tone of extreme disgust, "You're so cheap and you don't even have a basic sense of shame."Reed looked at his black eyes with a lost look as she curled up her lips and smiled, "I am not cheap at all. You are my first man. But for her, you aren't."There was a gloomy look on Dave's face. He cupped her chin with his hand directly and asked word by word, "What did you sa

The ringtone continued playing. Seeing that Reed wasn't intending to answer the call, Kim said directly, "I'll pick it up for you."Seeing Kim proceed to answer, Reed hurriedly grabbed the phone from her and and answered. "Hello.""Where are you?" Dave's impatient voice came from over the phone.Reed looked at Kim and responded, "I'm at my friend's place.""Come home in an hour."After saying that, Dave hung up without giving her any chance to refute. His words were like an imperial edict. Although Kim kept telling her she shouldn't do as he said, Reed dared not do so.At Dave's Villa, Reed knocked on the door a minute before the deadline.Dave opened and looked at his watch, "Did you do it on purpose?""What?" Reed looked at him confused.Dave didn't respond to her and ushered her in.Inside, he pointed to a file bag on the tea table, and said, "Sign this.""What's this?" Reed asked as she walked over and took out the documents from the file. A credit card fell out as a result.There

It turned out that although Dave didn't believe what Reed had said, he was actually looking into Lita's past.Knowing this made Reed's mood a little better. She replied some what uninterested, "What does it have to do with me? After all, the Mitaka Family is a rich and powerful family. Is there any problem for them to investigate the soon to be wife of their heir?"The corridor was very dark and Reed couldn't see Lita's expression. Lita was silent for several seconds and Reed thought she had given up so she added, "If there's nothing else, I'll be heading inside now."However, just as she was about to walk away, Lita grabbed her arm and laughed strangely, "Reed Defiant, do you think you can take up my position in this way? I just want to tell you that you are simply daydreaming!"Then, she suddenly let go of Reed's arm and took two steps back as she shouted, "No, no! Help!"Then there was a loud noise in the dark corridor. The sound of someone rolling down the stairs resonated in t

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

I leaned on Oogway and played with my cell phone for a while before falling asleep.Located in the city center, Jamin's house was surrounded by residential communities. As soon as it was midnight, the sounds of firecrackers rang from all directions!I opened my eyes. Beside me, Oogway sat there with the same posture as he had before I went to bed.He looked at me. "You up?""Yes." I nodded and glanced at the watch on my cell phone, only to find that it had been midnight.Glamourous fireworks was on outside the window.Looking at Bryan sleeping soundly, I somewhat couldn't bear to wake him up.Oogway seemed to sense my hesitation and said with a smile, "Wake him up. It happens once a year. Otherwise, he will blame you."I nodded and patted Bryan's shoulder lightly. Putting my face close to his ear, I whispered, "Baby, get up, they've started setting off the firecrackers."Hearing my words, Bryan seemed to have been awakened by an alarm.He immediately opened his eyes and sat up from t

Oogway wasn't in a hurry. He slowly opened his mouth, "In fact, speaking of the dealership of this drug, across the whole country, there is at least...""Well, she was slow witted. My parents took her girl away and abandoned her, stimulating her in an instant. Then she was more out of her mind and scratched my mother's face, making it covered with bruises! So my parents sent her to a mental hospital!"James couldn't hold it in any longer and blurted it out in an instant.It turns out that my mother had experienced these. Then who on earth is my irresponsible father? According to what Kelvin said, my mother was beautiful and smart. When she left European Architecture, she was a normal person. How come she went crazy after returning to the City?I asked, "Which mental hospital did they sent her to?"James waved his hand, "I sincerely don't know this. That's all I know. I've said everything that I can say. As for the others, I have no idea about them.""Okay." Oogway nodded, "I'll ask m
