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

On the fifth day...When we went to the office in the morning, we found that she had placed Joshua's body at the entrance of the office building! It was unknown what kind of method she had used.Before that, Haick and I had already bought a shroud for Joshua and asked an undertaker to take care of the body.At this moment, the corpse was lying at the door. Anyone who took a look at it would be frightened.I looked at it from afar. When Joshua's wife saw me, she pounced on me as if she had gone mad and scolded, "Reed Defiant, it's you. It's you who took advantage of my husband and made him feel that he owed the company. That's why he worked hard and died!"There were a lot of onlookers around but none of them dared to approach us.As Joshua's wife rushed up to me, everyone watched on."Regarding this matter and the project, they have nothing to do with me." I explained it to her but she just wouldn't listen to me. She pulled me and burst into tears. She cried and between sobs, asked

An hour later, I arrived at the repairs and paid for the fix and maintenance.I turned on the laptop there and then and searched for the photos that Nicki had sent to me. Soon, I found them moreover, the date was still in place.To prevent me from losing them, I bought a U disk and backed up the photos.I transferred the photos to my cell phone after and sent them to Lita.In less than a minute, I received a call from Lita!"Why do you have those photos?" As soon as the call connected, Lita's enraged voice come over.It was obvious she understood why I had sent them to her.As I packed up my laptop and walked out, I took the cell phone and said to her, "If you don't want anyone to find out, don't go on with it.""No one will believe you anyway!" Although Lita said this, I could hear how shakey her voice was. After all, she was plagiarizing.Looking at the great weather, I slowly said, "Is that so? Nicki's works have very obvious personal characteristics in them. Based on the compariso

After I got home, I looked at the empty room and realized Dave hadn't been over the past few days.I suddenly wondered if he had known this kind of thing would happen. He had only come to see me for fear that I would do something harmful to Lita. He was just monitoring my movements."Are you in a bad mood?"While I was standing in the living room in a daze, I suddenly heard Oogway's voice.I turned my head and saw him standing not far behind me. I couldn't help but feel nervous, "How did you get in?" Oogway smiled and said, "It's you who had forgotten to close the door. I thought someone had broken in so I came in to have a look."Only then did I notice that the door behind him was open.I apologized to him, "Sorry. I didn't pay attention to it just now.""It's okay. As a girl, you should be careful while living on your own. Come to me if you need anything." Oogway said then he took out a business card and placed it on the shoe cabinet, "This is my business card. You can call me any

Lita didn't seem to be irritated by my words. She sat back in the office chair and said, "So what? It will only last for a while. It's just a matter of time before you will be kicked out of the Mitaka Family."Her words sounded positive and affirmative.I didn't come to chat with her randomly so I got down to the point, "Did you kill Joshua?"Lita had her coffee cup in her hand intending to take a sip. When she heard this, she paused for a second.The smart look in her eyes became an innocent one. Looking at me, she blinked and said, "Reed, what are you talking about? How can I kill someone? Take your words back."The more she behaved like this, the more I believed that Joshua's death had something to do with her!Thinking of Joshua's three children, I questioned her, "Do you know Joshua is the backbone of his family? With his dead, what should his wife and three children do?""What should they do?" Lita put down her coffee and looked out of the window, "We are living in a society wh

I went to Judith's home. I didn't know why I felt more relaxed here than elsewhere, as if I belonged here.Or, only in here, I can really let go of things.I was preoccupied with the matters concerning Judith's death.I called Marie and told her all the ins and outs of this matter. I wanted to see if her husband Jerrold can check whether there was any report about this.After that, I searched for the list of associate directors of the Hospital.I had also come in contact with grandma's attending doctor at that time, so I should have some impression.There were four associate directors in the hospital. I scanned them roughly and soon focused on a photo of an associate director named Matt Parma!'That's him!' I told myself!"My grandmother's attending physician was this man."I looked at the doctor's resume from the Internet again. He was the youngest among all the associate directors. In comparison to other associate directors, he should be the most inexperienced.How could he be an a

We walked to my house. I took the elevator to go up, and Dave followed.When I reached the upper floor, I did not look at my door first, but at Oogway's.Oogway and I started from being neighbors. Then I thought perhaps everything was not just a coincidence.It was planned by him.I walked out of the elevator and opened the door with the key. Then I went in and found the Property Ownership Certificate.There was a black cloth bag put together with the Property Ownership Certificate, which stored the pink necklace that Dave had given me.I hesitated for a moment, and then put it into my bag.This necklace was so expensive. Maybe I could help Dave by selling it.When I went out, Dave was waiting at the door. He looked at me with a solemn face. "Have you made up your mind? If you don't want to sell it, I can...""Let's go." I interrupted him. "I don't want to live next door with him anymore."'He' meant Oogway.Dave didn't say anything else.He accompanied me to the Real Estate Bureau wi

It took about half an hour for Comfort to come out.As soon as she opened the door and saw me standing there, she was scared to take a step back and barely stood still. Then she looked at me and said with impatience, "What are you doing? Why don't you sleep in the middle of the night!?""Tell me clearly what you just said. What was wrong with grandma's tube?"'Today, if I don't figure this out, how can I sleep! That was what I thought.As I spoke, I switched on the lights in the corridor.The orange light shone on Comfort's face.The woman's face was still pale because of the shock. She said impatiently, "I don't know. You need to ask your father.""I'm asking you!" I threatened her. "I still have the video of you that year. Listen, anyway, you know what's my situation now. I don't want to be alive anymore. I'm not afraid to announce it in public and have a life and death struggle with you!"In fact, I was not sure if the video of Comfort I took was still there.But I still needed to

Judith's home looked the same as before, and the furniture wasn't changed, which made me gratified.After entering, Comfort said, "You can stay. I'll come back tomorrow morning. I'll go first.""Don't you want to stay here?" I looked at Comfort in surprise."I, I have a place, I don't live here!" Comfort's face was full of panic, as if she was afraid that I would ask more.At that moment, my mind suddenly became clear. I walked over and grabbed Comfort's hand, "No! If you want the exchange for my apartment, you must stay here with me for the night!""I won't stay!" Comfort shook off my hand with all her might!Her eyes were filled with fear!It was as though she resisted being here!What was she afraid of?Even though I didn't have a clear head on this day, my mind was unusually clear at this very moment.I pulled her and said, "No, then I won't do the exchange."Hearing this, Comfort immediately hesitated and begged, "I, I want to go back and take care of my husband...""You can ask

My heart went from anger, to panic, to numbness.In the end, I didn't even know when this farce would end.I didn't know how many tears I had shed.However, when I came to myself, the people around me seemed to have dispersed, as if the police had come to stop them.In the end, I was left alone.I felt like I was deprived of all my feelings.I couldn't feel sadness, anger or grief.I stood up. I was pointed at by passerbys when I made my way back, finally, I arrived at the No.1 on foot.Along the way, I was in a daze.I didn't quite remember what happened.I went home, took a shower, changed my clothes, and sat down on the sofa.My brain was in a mess.I completely seemed to have entered a state where I couldn't help denying myself.As I sat there, all I thought about was... all these things happened because of me.Because of me, the studio was destroyed.Because of me, all the orders had been cancelled.Because of me, my mother's life was exposed to the public.Because of me, Dave's

At nine o'clock the next morning, I found Harry's number on my phone. He was my attorney in the case of Helen.In fact, as long as the details of the trial and evidence would go public, things on the Internet would be refuted.I called Harry, and made an appointment at ten o'clock in the morning in a cafe near their Law Firm building with him.After hanging up the phone, I went out.Dave was very busy recently, so I did not disturb him. I took a taxi and went to the place that I had appointed with Harry.After arriving at the entrance, I paid the taxi fee and went upstairs to wait for him.Since it was in the morning, the cafe was almost empty. So I chose a corner, ordered a cup of coffee, and sat down calmly.It was only 9:30 a.m.I sat there, thinking over and over again about how to speak to Harry later.If Harry would refuse me or hesitate later, I would have to say something to move him.I practiced countless versions in my mind.At 10 a.m. I saw Harry opening the coffee shop's d

At this time, Marie's phone rang, after listening on for a while, she turned around and went out with a dignified look on her face.I followed Marie out and heard her. "Ms. Sarah, please listen to my explanation. This is an unwarranted rumor. Our designers are not such kind of people. Excuse me, Mrs. Sarah..."She didn't go on meaning the other party hung up.Marie put the phone in her pocket and turned around with disappointment.She looked at me and immediately squeezed out a smile. "The last project has been cancelled, too. It's good. We can rest for a while."Her words made me even sadder.All of this was because of me."I'm sorry. Originally, I thought it was only my own affair, but this also affected the people around me.I went back and Scarlett said, "Alina, why don't you also hold a press conference like Teresa?""No." Marie said behind, "Do you think the Michaelson family opened the press conference at random? They have already distributed questions to the journalists, and

I hadn't used my mobile phone for the past few days. I seemed to be used to it. Although I had my mobile phone, I didn't have time to check out the news.What did they find again?I tried my best to suppress the fear in my heart and clicked open the news with trembling hands.Looking at the news, it was just as I thought.Someone went to visit Helen, who seemed to have gone crazy, and said I killed Lita on the yatch.The man recorded a video stealthily. On the video, Helen only showed half of her face as she said with tears, "In order to let her let Lita off, we gave her all our property. But Reed was too hard hearted, she still didn't agree. She watched Lita being burnt to death in the end!"All the foul mouthed comments about me spread on the Internet.Netizens were crazyly searching, and they found out Lita's disappearance, Dave and Teresa's wedding, and I who should already be dead.This time, every line was actually very easy to piece together to form a complete clue!Because o

The four of us went silent at the same time.Upon seeing this, Desmond had no choice but to stand up. "You can continue. I'll go in and get some drinks."Although he had left, we did not continue either. I was bored for a while so I planned to go to the stern to see what they had gained from fishing.I took a few steps to the stern and saw that only Jerrold and Dave sat there.I was afraid of scaring away the fish, so I kept quiet.Before I got close, I heard Jerrold say, "He has spent a lot of money on this issue. If there is no higher bargaining chip, it will be very difficult to suppress this issue.""What's the price?""At least this." Jerrold said and raised his hand. I thought it was five million, and then I heard him said, "Fifty million."Hearing this number, I was astonished to breathless.Originally, I thought it was already expensive, but I did not expect Jerrold to say, "And now you know the things in which people are most interested are not only the private life of stars
