Through the monitoring system, we found that Jessica went out last midnight. She only wore a thin pajama and slippers. The camera showed that she walked to the road and then she was out of sight."Do you have any speculation about where your mother would go?" The police asked.Kelvin and I looked at each other, and soon realized that she probably went to find Finn!But she did not know where the Michealson family lived. If she went out rashly like this, how could she find Finn?The police helped me search for her, and I also contacted Dave.He used his connections to help me find Jessica.I didn't have any clues. I could only follow the last path that Jessica had been and went to the stores along the road one by one to ask if anyone had seen Jessica.However, it was midnight, so almost no shops opened at that time. Thus, no one had seen her!I was about to freak out.It had taken me a lot of effort to find my mother. I didn't want anything bad to happen to her!For a moment, I regre
The atmosphere in the living room cooled down as soon as I said that.Kelvin glanced at Finn angrily and then went upstairs first.When he left, before Finn could speak, Jessica said first, "Finn, I don't blame you for what happened."We all turned to look at her.After hearing what Jessica, said, Finn's face was full of shame. "Jessica, I'm sorry. About what happened that year, it was me that was not firm enough to protect our relationship. But you have to believe that I really loved you and I really wanted to marry you."A pack of lies.Jessica looked up at him and nodded. "I don't blame you. But since you have a family, just let the past be."I let out a sigh of relief when I heard her say so.When Finn heard her words, he became a little more relaxed. He took out a card from his pocket and put it on the table. "Jessica, I let you down. This is my compensation for what happened in the past. From now on, don't badger with me anymore. I am old now. I just want to keep my family stead
Janice had already cooked the meal. After Dave and I finished our meal, we sat together and played games in front of the TV.I really didn't have the talent for playing games, and I wasn't interested in it either. After playing for about two hours, I felt sleepy and bored. He also saw this, so he paused and said, "Leave the matter of playing games with our son to me in the future.""Great!"I nodded in agreement.He reached out his hand and held me directly onto his lap. He leaned over and said, "Now, baby, should you help me take a bath?""You haven't taken a bath?"I had lived in the Judith's home for a week."Does it mean that this week..."When I was lost in my imagination, Dave showed a helpless expression. "How could it be? It's just that without you, I feel that I can't wash myself clean."As he spoke, he controlled the wheelchair and wheeled me into the master bedroom.I was very skilled at helping Dave bathe now.It took about an hour to do it.I pushed him out of the bathro
It was Thursday. When I was still at work, I received a phone call from the kindergarten teacher. She told me that Bryan had a fever.I told Marie and then went to kindergarten in a hurry.After picking up Bryan, I took him to the children's hospital immediately.Generally, children would be sick in the fall and winter, now was the early summer, so there was not too many people in the children's hospital.I smoothly made a registration.When we arrived at the consulting room, the doctor took Bryan's temperature.It was 100.4 °F.Fortunately, it was not a high fever.The doctor ordered a blood test and I took Bryan for it. After the test, I took the results back to the doctor.The doctor took a look and said that it was viral influenza. He prescribed an anti virus cold medicine for me and let us go.For a child, 100.4 °F was indeed not a very high temperature.Bryan's spirit was not bad too, so I didn't take it seriously. I just sent him home, played with him for a while, ate dinner,
Kim picked up my call and breezed back home the next day.She arrived at Judith's house. As soon as she came in, she went upstairs and saw Bryan lying on bed, with his face blushing and his eyes slightly closed. She hugged him lovingly and said, "Gee, my godson, how come you've become like this?"Bryan heard Kim's voice, but he couldn't open his eyes. Instead, he opened his mouth slightly and called out, "Godmother.""Oh, my baby." Kim held Bryan's hand and touched his head. "You're so hot!""Yes." I said with sadness. "Now I really suspect that Oogway had injected a virus into Bryan. If that's true, since I can't find a solution, I can only ask him for help."Kim's expression turned serious when she heard what I said. She picked up her phone and called Desmond.Everything has its vanquisher. Like Kim and Desmond's relationship.It didn't take more than half an hour for Desmond to arrive after the call.After he went upstairs, I asked, "Can you get in touch with Dave? I know it's not
I was anxious. "Why me? I am over 30 years old. It is said that when a women is 30 years old, she'll no longer be charming. I am a woman who has given birth. Why are you into me like this? There are many young and beautiful girls outside. Why me?"He looked up at me and asked gently, "Have you asked Dave about this?"He shut me up with just one question.There was really no answer to love.But I still didn't want to give up. "I have a relationship with Dave. But you and me, our relationship is just nothing. We even met because of Dave.""Do you really think so?" He raised his eyebrows slightly."Wasn't it?"Oogway lowered his head. I couldn't see his expression clearly, but I heard him chuckle, "Of course not."What did that mean?Didn't we know each other because of the relationship between Dave and me?He continued, "When I went back to the Mitaka Family, I wanted Jamin to lose everything. I took Dave's company and robbed Jamie's share. When everything was within my reach, I gave it
I woke Bryan up, fed him the pill, and then took note of the time.After taking the medicine, Bryan went back to sleep..In the past few days, his fever was so high that he was weak.As soon as I came out, Kim grabbed me and asked, "Did Oogway ask for something?"By the side, Desmond also stared at me."What did he say? Tell us so that we can help you find a solution."Looking at the two medicines left in my hand, I sighed. "He asked me to marry him.""I knew he wouldn't give up!" Kim stamped her foot and said, "Is he out of his mind? Why does he love to steal from others?"I lowered my head.My heart was in a mess.At the side, Desmond suddenly slapped his thigh and grabbed the medicine from my hand. I was shocked. He held up the medicine and said, "Let's do a research on this. Figure out its composition, and then make the same medicine, Okay?""Great!" Kim was glad to hear that. "Let's do it. Why didn't I think of this!" I looked at them and sighed. "Oogway said that these medici
I pulled Kim and said, 'Forget it, let's go. We can't beat him."Oogway was such a deep minded person. If he was determined to do something, then everything we do would be in vain."Let's go! Let's go!" Kim was so irritated that she almost lost her mind.Desmond had no choice but to turned around and leave."Alina."As we were walking out, Oogway call out to me.I turned around.He still had a gentle smile on his face and asked, "If you are available, wait for me for a while. Mr. Galen and I are almost done here.""No."I refused right away.He was not angry, but his expression was a little serious. "I have something to talk to you about. I hope you can wait for me.""No way." Kim also refused.But after a moment's hesitation, I said, "Okay, I'll wait for you outside.""Okay." Oogway nodded.As soon as we closed the door, Kim started to get mad at me. "Why are you waiting for him?!""Forget it. I'll just wait. I'm not as wily as him. I can only hear what he's going to say."For Oogway
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
