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.

    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.

    I got up and headed for the guest bedroom but Dave hugged me from behind, lowered his head, and asked, "Were you waiting for me to come back?"As soon as he got close to me, I smelled all the various fragrances mixed together and frowned.I couldn't help but sneeze.Dave quickly loosened his grip, took off his coat, and apologized, "I'm sorry."As soon as he loosened his grip, I continued to walk away. Dave grabbed my arm and asked, "Why are you still up at such a late time? Is there something wrong?"He knew me very well. After all, I had been trying my best to draw a clear line with him but I was up and waiting tonight.I turned around but before I could say anything, Dave added, "You want to ask about Haick's company. Is that it? I think you'd better ask him. I didn't intend to take over his company. He asked me to.""He asked you to and you agreed just like that? Mr. Mitaka, when did you become so kind?"I surely wouldn't be convinced by his words but the next second, Dave gave m

    "Haick, don't waste time on me. I will indeed divorce Dave but after the divorce, I probably won't get married."I lowered my eyes."Well, let's think about what to eat now."Haick changed the subject again.However, when we walked forward, I heard him say, "If you won't get married, I will be single for the rest of my life as well."At that moment, I felt a little warm hearted.After we had dinner, Haick took me to an amusement park and caught a big pink leopard doll for me.Haick sent me back all the way to the entrance of my residential quarter. When I got out of the car, I bumped into Lita, who just came out of the residential quarter.Thud! At the sight of her, I felt my heart skip a beat."What are you doing here?" The first thing that came to my mind was Dave had taken her to my apartment. Would he have done that?Lita rolled her eyes at me and said, "Why should I tell you what I do? It should be me asking you that question instead. Could it be that some lover of your's is l

    At the mention of Teresa, Finn's attitude was different from Katy's. He seemed to have no idea about Teresa's heartlessness.He looked at me and said, "Reed, it was my fault. I shouldn't have flirted with Jessica because I was married. But, but I really couldn't control myself. During that ime, I really loved her, even now I..."Finn didn't go on, but his face was full of regret.I narrowed my eyes and looked at him. Then I sneered, Mr. Finn, do you have a dead brain? Or do you have a bad memory? A few months ago, you dropped a card and said you wanted to draw a line to keep your distant from us. Don't you remember?""You cheated my mother's feelings and took her to the City. She was a healthy person before, but she was driven crazy by your wife, who is a vixen. The Newman family didn't accept her, and I grew up in a family that didn't love me. How can you be so shameless to call me daughter?"Originally, my mood was very calm. Looking at Finn, I felt like I was watching his play. How

    Pigs might fly. Katy came to meet me!When I saw her, I didn't think much and turned to leave. Katy saw me and rushed out, "Alina, I'm here for you."Her voice was loud, and several colleagues looked over. However, I had no intention of entering the meeting room. Standing at the door, I looked at her with a little vigilance and sked, "Mrs. Katy, I don't think I have anything to do with you. What can I do for you?"Looking at my attitude, Katy was not angry at all. She said with a smile, "Come in. I have something to tell you.""Let's talk about it here. After all, we haven't gotten on well before. What if you hit yourself and blame it on me?" I said.There was CCTV in the conference room but I said so on purpose.In fact, I am not afraid that Katy will hit me. I am afraid that I can't help hitting her.Hearing this, Katy was a little embarrassed."No, no, come in, I'll only talk with you." She seemed to be afraid that I wouldn't go in, so she added, "Do I have to beg you."Beg me?

    Bryan had been treated for a week.The fever had also subsided, and his vitals had also stabilized.These days, it's Janice who delivered food to me and Bryan.Today, Janice sent food again. There were vegetables, ribs, fish soup, and rice.Bryan's appetite recovered well, and he ate a big bowl of food in a short time.After the meal, I found that the weather outside was good, so I wanted to check with the doctor to see if I could take Bryan out for a walk.The doctor checked Bryan and agreed.Janice went to the backyard of the hospital with me.There was a small garden in the backyard, surrounded by many benches. Other patients were sitting on benches, basking in the sun."Miss Jetson."When I was walking with Bryan, someone called me from behind.I looked back and saw that it was Eunice."Miss Eunice?"I was a little surprised, so I quickly let Janice take care of Bryan and walked over to Eunice.Eunice wore a cloth hat. I could see at a glance that there seemed to be no hair under

    Desmond's face turned pale. "No, that was before I met you, I really haven't messed with anyone since I met you, I swear...""Really? I've seen several of them. Next time, if you want to deceive me, make drafts first."Kim's face was full of mockery.I could see Desmond was sweating. Не showed a pleasing smile on his face, put his palms together and winked at me.I knew that he was asking me to help.I tugged at Kim's arm and said, "Alright, a prodigal who returns is more precious than gold. Forgive him for the mistakes he made before.""That's right! They are previous mistakes!" Hearing my words, Desmond immediately cast a grateful look at me.He also put on an expression of gratitude.Kim couldn't stand it. She looked at Desmond and said, "I forgive you because my Reed said to. If you dare to do it again, I'll break your leg!""Which one?""Both!""I don't dare, I won't!"They left joking.I watched them get into the elevator. I felt half of my worries had been put to rest.The othe

    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
