"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
When Haick was in the hospital, I went to accompany him and however late it was, Dave would always wait for me at the entrance of the hospital.It had been half a month since I went to work in the cafe shop when I bumped into Blue again after going back.This time, she looked better.I took the initiative to talk to her. It was probably because Haick's company was in a good condition that she was in a good mood. She wasn't b*tchy to me anymore but when we were chatting, I found out something unacceptable to me.Blue told me Haick Design was now a subordinate company of Mitaka Group. Dave hired a professional manager to take care of Haick Design.As for Haick, he was now only the Director of the Design Department.It was somewhat difficult for me to accept this fact.I often saw Dave in recent days and I occasionally contacted Haick but neither of them told me about this.It should be Dave who had forced Haick to keep it from me.Although I was angry, I still had to continue my work.
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
