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

The orphanage looked same as it used to when Dave and I had been here. The children were very happy and lively.Several children were playing basketball in the basketball court.As soon as I went in, the old dean came out to welcome me.After chatting with him for a while, I told him I was resting today so I passed by to check on the kids. The old dean said casually, "When you are free, you can come here to be a volunteer. Although I can't pay you, there would be free lunch."His words enlightened me and I agreed right on the spot.I spent the whole day hanging out with the children.There were children of different ages in the orphanage. I was mainly playing with the children who were three or four years old.Looking at them, I couldn't help but think, "If my child was still alive, he would be one and a half years old now."When I left, I made an appointment with the old dean I would come back to accompany the children every Tuesday and Wednesday.........................A week la

It was clearly illustrated on the billboard that a press conference about a new book publication held by the genius designer, Lita Defiant, would be held here today.In less than a month, Lita had published her design works as well as her books.No wonder she cared so much about the design draft in my hand. After all, once I exposed her, all of her "efforts" would be in vain.But since I was already here, I could only take the coffee in.Inside, a staff member came over and pointed to a place not far ahead for me to drop the coffee and leave.Lita was surrounded by a group of people for an interview not far away from me and I didn't want to get involved with her so I walked over, placed down the coffee, and intended to leave.Just then, I heard someone on the side say, "Oh, this delivery woman looks a lot like Miss Defiant."Everyone was staring at me at this point.I lowered my head as I tried to leave, only to be blocked by the ones who swarmed over.Then, I heard Lita shouting behi

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
