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
Early the next morning...After Dave left for work, I got up and went to the mall and found a wig shop. After searching for over an hour, I finally found a wig whose color and length were almost the same as those of Lita's hair. However, its length was a little longer than that of her long hair.I took it to a barbershop and asked the barber to style the wig based on Lita's hairstyle. Then, I made a temporary hairstyle.Originally, I wanted to ask Kim to do makeup for me but unfortunately, she was not at home.She introduced me to one of her colleagues, who was quite good at make overs.She made a makeup for me based on Lita's.Admittedly, after the makeup was done and I put on my wig and compared my look with Lita's, I found that my temperament was indeed similar to Lita's.I simply looked like an angelic b*tch.There was still one hour to go before the agreed dinner time. Dave came home to pick me up. I had the wig off at this time but not the make up. When he saw me, there was a p
I looked at Dave and bit my lips so hard. I knew very well if I didn't agree with him, there was no way I could defeat him.Even if I turned to someone else for help, the people around me would get involved. In the end, I compromised.I looked at him and said, "Okay, I've figured out what I will ask from you in return.""Go ahead." Dave said."I'm going to work in Haick Design and you will promise not to target it again."I wanted to keep Haick's company."Okay. I promise you." Dave nodded.I wasn’t rest assured, "Mr. Mitaka, I hope you can keep your promise and not act like you did last time. You promised but still secretly plotted against Haick Design."Dave looked at me with a gloomy face, "I didn't break my promise. I didn't do anything to Haick Design.""Mr. Mitaka, as for the truth, you know it the best."Now, I could no longer trust Dave but I had to believe him................The next day, I went back to Haick Design.Haick welcomed me enthusiastically but the others didn't
I returned the money to Kim.She asked while eating, "What are you going to do? Are you going to let Lita off so easily?""I need to think about this again."Of course, I wouldn't let Lita Defiant off the hook that easily but I feared Dave.I feared he would indeed do something to the orphanage or Kim in a fit of anger.After that day, Dave, whose self esteem probably had been hurt by me, hadn't shown up in front of me for two consecutive months.The weather turned cold. I was in poor health. Because of what I had suffered in prison, I had become sensitive to cold. No matter the number of clothes I wore, my hands and feet were still cold.I didn't go out. I wrapped myself in a quilt and watched TV at home."A branch company of the Mitaka Group held a press conference with Lita's Studio, which just joined Mitaka Group, in recent days. At the conference, the design sketches of the new products in the next spring produced by Lita's Studio has been exhibited..."Hearing the Mitaka Gro
The sound of a car being powered off came from downstairs then, I heard Lita and Helen's voice.I am doomed!I hurried out of the room and hurried downstairs, intending to go out. As soon as I opened the door, I saw Lita and Helen standing at the door.The two of them were stunned when they saw me. Lita immediately came to her senses and took off my wig, "Reed Defiant, what are you doing here?"Helen was puzzled to see him there.The servant came out hurriedly. When she saw me, and the wig in Lita's hand, she was stunned.Helen scolded the servant directly, "Can't you even tell who the Miss is?""Sorry, I, I didn't pay attention."The servant was so scared that she apologized.The way I saw it, this servant was here to replace June.Out of kindness, I said, "She can't tell Lita and I apart and it's not her fault."As soon as I spoke, Helen paid attention to me. She pointed to me and questioned, "Tell me, what are you doing here? Did you come to steal something?"She asked while tryi
Pigs might fly. Katy came to meet me!When I saw her, I didn't think much and turned to leave. Katy saw me and rushed out, "Alina, I'm here for you."Her voice was loud, and several colleagues looked over. However, I had no intention of entering the meeting room. Standing at the door, I looked at her with a little vigilance and sked, "Mrs. Katy, I don't think I have anything to do with you. What can I do for you?"Looking at my attitude, Katy was not angry at all. She said with a smile, "Come in. I have something to tell you.""Let's talk about it here. After all, we haven't gotten on well before. What if you hit yourself and blame it on me?" I said.There was CCTV in the conference room but I said so on purpose.In fact, I am not afraid that Katy will hit me. I am afraid that I can't help hitting her.Hearing this, Katy was a little embarrassed."No, no, come in, I'll only talk with you." She seemed to be afraid that I wouldn't go in, so she added, "Do I have to beg you."Beg me?
Bryan had been treated for a week.The fever had also subsided, and his vitals had also stabilized.These days, it's Janice who delivered food to me and Bryan.Today, Janice sent food again. There were vegetables, ribs, fish soup, and rice.Bryan's appetite recovered well, and he ate a big bowl of food in a short time.After the meal, I found that the weather outside was good, so I wanted to check with the doctor to see if I could take Bryan out for a walk.The doctor checked Bryan and agreed.Janice went to the backyard of the hospital with me.There was a small garden in the backyard, surrounded by many benches. Other patients were sitting on benches, basking in the sun."Miss Jetson."When I was walking with Bryan, someone called me from behind.I looked back and saw that it was Eunice."Miss Eunice?"I was a little surprised, so I quickly let Janice take care of Bryan and walked over to Eunice.Eunice wore a cloth hat. I could see at a glance that there seemed to be no hair under
Desmond's face turned pale. "No, that was before I met you, I really haven't messed with anyone since I met you, I swear...""Really? I've seen several of them. Next time, if you want to deceive me, make drafts first."Kim's face was full of mockery.I could see Desmond was sweating. Не showed a pleasing smile on his face, put his palms together and winked at me.I knew that he was asking me to help.I tugged at Kim's arm and said, "Alright, a prodigal who returns is more precious than gold. Forgive him for the mistakes he made before.""That's right! They are previous mistakes!" Hearing my words, Desmond immediately cast a grateful look at me.He also put on an expression of gratitude.Kim couldn't stand it. She looked at Desmond and said, "I forgive you because my Reed said to. If you dare to do it again, I'll break your leg!""Which one?""Both!""I don't dare, I won't!"They left joking.I watched them get into the elevator. I felt half of my worries had been put to rest.The othe
I looked at Oogway and didn't know how to answer for a while.He turned to look at the ward and said, "I'm no longer young. I can distinguish what I am obsessed with."Although he didn't look at me, I could tell from his expression that he was serious.Which made me sure that what he had clung to was really not like what I thought.I also followed his gaze and looked into the ward.In the ward, Bryan was looking at us.When he found that I was looking at him, he forced a smile and waved at me.I waved back.When I thought of Bryan being fine soon, my heart, which had been hanging, gradually relieved.Oogway must have seen our interaction, so he let out a chuckle.When I turned my head to look at him, he happened to look at me as well.He leaned forward slightly and asked seriously, "Do you know why Dave agreed to marry the Defiant Family?"I was a little confused by him for mentioning this.Oogway saw through my doubts and continued, "Because I found Lita and told her about what happe
Oogway looked at me, and his eyes were cold.For the sake of Bryan, I couldn't care so much. I took the man's arm and said in a friendly tone, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. I won't go to the bar again. Please forgive me."Oogway looked at me saying nothing.I didn't know what he meant.I stared at him quietly and didn't know what to do next.What else does he want me to do?My mind wandered, but I was already fully prepared for anything that could happen.After a while, Oogway put the ring in his pocket, stood up and said, "Let's go.""OK!"I thought he had forgiven me, so I hurried to follow him.We sat in his car together.The smell of alcohol lingered in his car.I was a little embarrassed but I didn't say anything.Oogway started the car and drove out of the community.The car drove for a while before I noticed that it didn't seem to be heading toward the City Hall, so I got nervous again and looked at Oogway, "Where are we going?""To pick up Bryan."He kept his eyes on the road as
Oogway picked me up and carried me into the car. I looked at him as he started the engine. I grabbed his arm and said, "I don't want to go home.""You don't?" He raised his eyebrows slightly."If I go back like this, they will be worried. Please help me... Call Kelvin and tell him I'll not go home today."I was so drunk. They will be worried about me if I went back. After all, I would not drink for no reason.Oogway nodded. I sat in the passenger seat and listened to him call Kelvin.When he hung up, he handed me the phone and started the car, "Is it okay to go to our home?"Our home?Oh, I know where it is.I nodded.I was going to be his wife anyway. That place was going to be our home in the future.I wouldn't be able to escape the reality.After a while, I fell asleep dazedly. However, maybe it was because I was in Oogway' car, I didn't sleep too deep.Not knowing how long had passed, I felt the car had stopped and he carried me.It was pitch black in front of me. I opened my e
In the evening, even the most prosperous place in the City was quiet. Around the high office buildings, there were only a few lights that were still on.I drove to the gate of Mitaka Group.I got out of the car and went to the entrance.The entrance had been closed. I wanted to go in, but a security guard came over and said, "It's closed."I looked up at the large building, except for the security room lights being on, the whole building was all dark.It seemed that Towering High was very kind to the employees, and there was not even a person working overtime.I didn't know what I wanted to do here. I hesitated for a moment, turned around and left.Back in the car, I continued driving.Finally, I found a lively place.On both sides of the road, rows of luxury cars were parked. At the entrance, the young men and women dressed in various kinds of clothes were chatting at the door, and some people were vomiting in the tree pits.Liquor.I wanted to drink.Perhaps if I was drunk, I would
Oogway put his arm around my waist and said to Teresa, "Miss Teresa, you are also a famous lady in this City. Whether in terms of social status or background, you are better than my Alina. But men love her, not you. Don't you think it's shameful? What are you still arguing for?"He made Teresa's face turn pale in a few words.She stared at Oogway and said with a fake smile, "Well, well, what's wrong with you? Do you believe she loves you and is willing to marry you just because she says? Tell you what, Oogway, she and Dave love each other no matter where they are!""Since you know it, what are you clinging to?"Oogway asked her.Teresa looked at Oogway and sneered. "Then what are you clinging to? We are all clinging to the same thing. Why do you ask me?"Hearing what Teresa said, Oogway's face was still calm.He drew back his hand, propped both elbows on the table, looked at Teresa and said slowly, "How do you know that we are clinging to the same thing?"Teresa suddenly became speech
Eunice lowered her head and kept silent, as if she was thinking.I didn't say anything more. I took the cup of fruit tea in front of me and took a sip.It was sour and sweet.When I put down the teacup, Eunice said, "Though I want to help you, it's just that his heart is no longer with me. He probably doesn't care about whether I live or die.""It's not like that." I looked at Eunice and said firmly, "Oogway has you in his heart, but he doesn't realize it, or... he is deceiving himself. What he needs is a process to know his heart."Eunice slightly nodded. "But that doesn't mean that he will give in to me.""I know." I smiled bitterly. "I'm sorry. In fact, I have already told him about your illness. I hope he can see his heart clearly. I have no choice."Eunice looked at me without saying a word.There was only silence.I said again, "I'm sorry." Eunice finally looked up at me and smiled. "If he let you go because of me and come back to me, then I am willing to be used by you."Euni
