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

    "Are you crazy? We are in your office!" I screamed out but Dave did not care about it at all. He pressed his thin lips against my ears and said, "This is my territory and my people are sensible."I had been pressed down on the office desk by Dave so he could have his way at his free will.After being satisfied, Dave got up and tidied up his clothes. I lay on the desk, staring at the ceiling in a daze.I was the only loser in this triangle relationship.Knock. Knock, Knock.A string of soft sounds rang from the direction of the door.I got up in fright and turned my back to the door, fearing that the person at the door would push the door open and come in. After all, my clothes had been torn by Dave.Dave roughly tidied up his clothes and went to the door. He then brought in a few bags and handed them to me.I took a look inside and saw a set of cloth as well as a box of skin care product inside.He asked me to take a bath in the lounge inside the office.I walked into his lounge.

    As I looked at my favorite dishes on the table, my eyes turned red.I muttered to myself in my heart, 'Don't forget what he did to you in prison. Don't forget your child who died and don't forget that he turned a blind eye to Lita's evil deeds...'I seemed to be paralyzing myself and making myself more and more determined to go on pretending. Otherwise, the defense line I had been setting up with efforts would break down overnight.I didn't eat anything and left Mitaka Group by myself.When I came out, many employees were still enjoying their food. When they saw me, they were whispering to each other.It seemed that they had seen Dave go out just now.I couldn't care what they thought. I quickly left Mitaka Group and instead of going home, I went to an internet cafe.I printed out my resume and began job hunting.I sent my resume to different design companies one by one. By the time I was done, it was almost evening.I was so hungry that I didn't have any strength to cook at home so

    About an hour later, Dave finally finished his shower. He dried his body, wrapped himself in a bath towel, and went out.After he left, I quickly took off my clothes which had been soaked wet and began to take my bath.It was not until I finished taking my shower that I noticed a very important problem.It was me who had barged into the bathroom and I didn't bring anything to get changed or my bathrobe in.The only bath towel was now on Dave's body.I wanted to go out but I was afraid Dave would be at the door.Helplessly, I could only call out Dave's name. There was no response so I figured he should be in the hall.When I let down my guard and opened the door, intending to step out, I saw Dave sitting on the bed, still wrapped in the towel.Although he was covered with a bath towel, I could cleaarly see his lower member erected.As I was about to retreat to the bathroom, Dave stepped forward, held me in his arms, and pressed me on the bed.My first reaction was to struggle. However

    His words sounded cruel.His words sounded resolute."Look! You love Lita so deeply that you don't even stick to your principles yet you are entangling with me here. How come you aren't torturing me? All you do is be nice and sweet!"I raised my head and stared into Dave's black eyes, "As a woman, I just want a husband who loves me but if my husband is you, my dream will never come true...""Reed Defiant...""Mr. Mitaka, let me remind you for the last time. Lita Defiant is the culprit who killed Joshua. Joshua is just a worker and you can make up to Joshua's wife easily with money she can't earn in her lifetime. Even so, you can never change the fact that the three children have lost their father."After saying my piece, I turned to the guest bedroom.Dave Mitaka...Dave Mitaka disappointed me so much.After that day, although Dave occasionally came over, I treated him as if he were a stranger and so did he.We didn't speak to each other............................After dropping my

    It was unknown how long I had been sleeping when I heard my cell phone ring. I picked it up vaguely and placed it next to my ear."Hey, do you know Haick Grimm?"Over the phone came the voice of a young man with a local dialect.These words made me sober in an instant, "Yes!"Then I looked at the phone screen and noticed the caller ID was Haick.The one over the phone explained the situation to me. Haick was drunk and the young man couldn't access his cell phone since it was locked. He called the emergency contact saved on the phone and he reached me.Haick had my number saved as his emergency contact...Thinking back to Haick's haggard look when I saw him earlier, I suddenly became nervous.I promised to go there right away.After I hung up, I looked at the time and saw it was 1:20 a.m.I put on a coat and headed outside.I stood at the entrance of the residential quarter. At this time, there weren't any taxis on the street and I couldn't even book a car online successfully.While

    I sat at the door of the operation room and waited.After a couple more hours, Haick was finally pushed out of the operating room and transferred to a ward. Fearing that he would feel abandoned when he woke up, I guarded him for the rest of the dawn.At 9 a.m. in the morning, Haick woke up.It was his cell phone that woke him up.As soon as his cell phone rang, Haick woke up as if he had gone crazy. I had no choice but to hold the phone for him."Mr. Hammond, you asked me to drink yesterday. I did as you said and I'm even lying in the hospital at the moment. You can't go back on your words!"I vaguely heard Mr. Hammond say he had said so because he was drunk and that it didn't count at all.I felt indignant for Haick!Haick begged him with all his might but in the end, Mr. Hammond hung up the phone without a care.Seeing Haick lying on the bed and looking at the ceiling in a daze, I tried to seem energetic. I went over and pinched his face, "Don't worry. I have a solution.""Reed, I

    Oogway and I had just met each other a few times. However rich he was, I surely couldn't take fifty million dollars from him for free.If I got the money from him, it was unknown what would happen next.However, Oogway didn't intend to take the check back. Moreover, he seemed to have seen through my mind as he said, "I don't have any ulterior motive. I won't let you do anything for me because of this. In my eyes, this money is petty. As your neighbor, I am just giving you a helping hand."Oogway added, "There's no interest. You can pay it back to me slowly."In fact, accepting Oogway's money would be the best solution after all, there was a deadline to repay a mortgage loan from the bank. If Haick couldn't repay, my apartment would be taken away and Judith surely would blame me.However, I believed if Haick got the money, he surely would make a greater comeback.I, who had been hesitant, made up my mind to accept Oogway's money...At that time, "Din!."A sound came from the elevator b

    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

    After hearing the name clearly, Oogway's eyes immediately showed some indifference. He folded his legs, put his hands on his knees, looked at me, and said in a very alienated voice, "So what?"I was not beaten back by his state. I continued, "Eunice got uterus cancer."When I said those words, Oogway frowned slightly.Then, I added another two words, "Stage 2."Oogway's expression obviously relaxed a little but he said only one word, "Oh."Seeing that he was relaxed, I hurriedly continued, "But when I saw her today, her assistant told me that she was not willing to be treated, because once treated she might not be able to conceive. She has always held the hope of getting pregnant.""That's her business."Unwilling to let it go, I continued, "Then have you ever thought about the fact that for an excellent woman like Miss Eunice, there must be a lot of men who wanted to be with her, even with her legs were disabled. But has been single all these years?""That's her business."Oogway sa

    Brianna snorted at my oath.But it didn't mean that she didn't believe what I said.She looked at me with a serious look."What are you going to do then? Are you really going to marry him?""I don't know." I shook my head and said, "But no matter what, I can't watch Bryan die.""I..."I looked at Brianna. "You are also a mother. You know how it feels. I can not give up Bryan."Hearing this, Brianna sighed heavily."Oogway, Oogway, to be honest, we have been on guard against him all the time, but we didn't expect that he took a shot at you."I looked at Brianna and said seriously, "Auntie, I really love Dave. I hope to be with him for the rest of my life. I believe he loves Bryan and me as well. But I may not be able to be with him in this lifetime. If you two hate me, I won't blame you.""Alas!" Brianna sighed again. "I know my child best. He really loves you deeply. If you marry Oogway, he will take you back by all means necessary.""I will be done with him." I clasped my hands toget

    Halfway through the dinner, I was tired. I went to the big sofa in the corner of the hall to rest. I stayed for a while and headed to the restroom.When I came out, a woman's scream came from the corridor!I was so frightened that I thought something happened, so I walked over quickly.I found that there was a baby hypertension room. When I was about to push the door and go in, a pleasant male voice came from inside."Don't you like this excitement?"It was Bleak.Anita.Actually I didn't have a habit of eavesdropping, but because the other side was them, I couldn't help but stand a little longer.I heard Anita say shyly, "But if you don't lock the door, in case others think there is no one inside, they will come in directly...""Then you should shout louder, and let them know that there are people inside." Bleak's voice was mixed with gasps.What they were doing speaks for itself.I was wondering what kind of deep grudge Bleak had with the Mitaka Family.Even a women like Anita, who
