The CEO's Switched Bride Chapter 48
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

My vision was blurred and my ears were buzzing.I heard Thomas scold me exasperatedly, "We gave birth to you and raised you yet you stealing from us. How dare you call her that?""Reed!" Lita pretended to come over to hold me and said to Thomas, "Dad, Reed is someone with a criminal record. It's not easy for her to find a job. She won't be wanted by any company so she surely did so out of desperation."I sneered and pushed Lita away, "Stop pretending, okay?""Reed.""Look! You speak up for her yet she doesn't even take your kindness to heart. She's such an ungrateful thing!"Helen pulled Lita to her side."Yeah. You...""It's enough!"When Thomas raised his hand, intending to hit me again, Judith, who was sitting on the side, finally spoke up.She waved to me and said kindly, "Come on. Reed, sit here.""Mom, you can't be deceived by her anymore!"Seeing that they had been putting on a show with great effort for so long and yet Judith didn't change her attitude towards me, Thomas was s

After I got home, I tried to turn on the laptop, only to find that it seemed to be broken. Helplessly, I put off the power.The next day, I received a call from Judith, urging me to move into the new apartment.I didn't have many things. I tidied up my usual clothes, my laptop and tablet then I opened the house property certificate. Reading the address on it, my jaw instantly dropped, Unit No.1.If one was asked for the residential quarter of the City with the best location as well as the most expensive, it had to be Unit No.1.This residential quarter was surrounded by water on all sides and its property management was of first class.If it weren't for my name on the house property certificate, I would have thought Judith had given me the wrong one.I took a taxi to the entrance of the residential quarter, a security guard eyed me and drove me away very rudely, "Go away. Promotion is not allowed here."I hurried to explain, "I'm a new owner. I'm moving in today.""An owner? What is t

There were a total of three apartments on this floor. Based on the layout of the door, it could be seen that the room opposite mine and my room should be small sized apartments. While Oogway's apartment was a big one.After he went in, I didn't stay at the door any longer.As soon as I entered the apartment, I was attracted by the big floor to ceiling windows in front of me. There was a sea view outside making the scenery pretty.I packed up my things and decided to get my laptop repaired.As soon as I walked out of the door, my cell phone rang.Dave was calling.Because there were servants in the villa, as soon as I left, they surely would have informed Dave."Where are you?"After I picked the call, Dave's cold voice came over the phone.I didn't want to find an excuse so I told him what Judith had said, "Grandma already knows that we are in a deadlock. She said that, although the Defiant Family is not as good as the Mitaka Family, I don't have to live under your roof.""Where else

I looked at Dave, wondering what he was up to.I thought he would leave after the meal. I obediently did the cooking and called out to him to come have a seat.After Dave sat down, he patted the chair next to him and said, "Sit here."I hesitated for a moment before sitting by his side.At this time, all what I wanted was to satisfy him so he would leave.I sat on the side and watched Dave have his meal.He finished one bowl of rice, then a second bowl as he asked me to help him get a third bowl, I asked him kindly, "Do you eat so much for dinner now?"Dave did not respond.I didn't ask any more as I could only fill another bowl of rice for him.After dinner, he said he wanted to deal with his work using my tablet. I dared not refuse him. After giving the tablet to him, I went to the bedroom alone with my cell phone and sent a text message to Kim.I told her all about Dave's abnormality today.Kim only replied with one sentence, "He is h*rny or he misses you."I replied, "No way!"Ki

I stole a glance at him, whose upper body was naked. As the cold moonlight shone on his muscular muscles, he looked firm and tempting...There was an inexplicable desire surging in my heart and I quickly closed my eyes.I felt that Dave had placed me on a bed again and hugged me from behind. As he rubbed against my cheeks with his wet and soft hair, it tickled me.I was anxious he would do something to me but then I felt his thin lips close to my ear and he said in a very light voice, "Reed Defiant, I seem to have fallen for you."His simple words stunned me.What does that mean? Does he like me?But how could it be...It's probably as Kim said. Men will tend to cherish a woman only after they lose her.This kind of cherish is not the feeling of love but a sense of defeat after he lost control of his things.I had been thinking randomly for a long time and in the end, I fell asleep amid Dave's faintly discernible breath...The next morning when I woke up, Dave and I were still in th

On the third day after the death of Joshua, as soon as I arrived at the entrance of the company, I saw a group of people gathered in front of the office building, from which came a baby's crying.I squeezed in and saw a woman with three children. Her eldest daughter was kneeling on the ground and the two babies who were still in their cradles were put on the ground, crying miserably.Behind them, there was a white banner printed with black words, which read "Haick Design, you owe me my husband's life!"I knew who these people were at once!"Everyone, do me a favor! Haick Design is a merciless company. They asked my husband to work day and night nonstop to expedite their project. In the end, he was exhausted and died suddenly at the construction site! It wasn't until his body was almost decaying that he was found!""He's the breadwinner of my family. I stay at home raising three children alone. I don't go out to work. He's dead. What should I do now?"Joshua's wife cried and made a fus

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

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
