I realized my face was covered with my hands and feet tied to the chair.I tried to move and suddenly heard footstep. I shouted subconsciously, "Help!""Help? Hahaha!" A woman's voice rang and it was a voice I would never forget.I couldn't help but feel my flesh creep. "Mrs. Boone." I called out with my voice trembling.She was the head of the gang sisters who had abused me in prison. This woman was the cause of all my pain."Not bad. You still remember me. I heard you are living a good life now. You live in a big house. In that case, how can you forget sorting me out?"As soon as she spoke, all the painful memories in prison came back.As my head was covered and all I could see was pitch black darkness, fear rose in my heart.I begged, "Mrs. Boone, I'll give you anything. Anything at all. Please let me go..."I was scared out of my wits at this time."Let you go? You are day dreaming! Since you are here, there's no way you will be leaving here alive." She paused and added, "But befo

"Lita Defiant! I'm saving those photos on a cloud drive. If I don't log on the cloud within the next few hours, those photos will automatically be uploaded onto domestic forums..... Ah!"I yelled out loud but before I could finish my words, someone had kicked me in the stomach.I was in pain as I curled up on the ground, repeating the same words hoping Lita would hear me."What are you yelling for?"They all came over and began kicking and hitting me. The stench of blood in my mouth getting stronger and stronger.I started to feel my limbs going numb because of the pain. Lying on the ground, I dared not move at all.The most ridiculous thing about all this was me thinking about Dave Mitaka. I thought if I could make it out of here, Dave and I would get along with each other since we were already on good terms.Lita seemed to have heard what I said because Mrs. Boone repeated exactly what I had said. After a while, she said to the ones hitting me, "Stop hitting her. Can you afford to

They came back and tortured me the same way they had done in prison but this time, they beat me up more unscrupulously. As I curled up in the cage, they held candles in their hands above the cage and let the wax drip down into the cage.I could only keep dodging, but end up getting burnt from time to time.Later, they changed the candles to cigarettes then knives. It was just like they were playing a game.No matter how hard I tried to dodge, I would be hurt.My body was cut by the knives and my clothes was soaked in blood.Fearing that I would die from loosing too much blood, they stopped torturing me.I lay in the cage in a twisted position. Although I was not badly hurt, I felt pain all over my body.It was already late at night. I felt uncomfortable and couldn't fall asleep when I heard Mrs. Boone making a phone call.I couldn't tell who she was talking to but judging from her tone, it sounded like she was coaxing a child.A child? I found this idea ridiculous. For a woman like M

I was not seriously injured. My wounds were all superficial and would healed soon. Fortunately, although Dave had been shot, the bullet only grazed his skin. His organs were fine but he needed to rest.On the second day after I was admited, a detective came over for my statement and I told him everything.Thinking of everything I had suffered recently and that Lita had made me lose my baby, I decided I would not let her go this time.I told him all I had suffered in prison in a somewhat exaggerated tone and at the same time showed him the scars.It could be seen that he somewhat sympathized with me after seeing the scars.Taking advantage of his softheartedness, I told him everything about what had happened after I was released asking him to investigate whether it had anything to do with Lita. In the end, I asked him to keep the progress of the investigation a secret from everyone else.I feared someone would some how intervene with the investigation.He hesitated for a moment but ag

Lita's words made me ascertain that the Detective didn't tell her anything and Dave was busy with the affairs of his company so he also didn't have any idea about what I had going on.It seems I will be making her pay for what she has done this time.Without further ado, I hung up the phone.Although I knew Lita would get her retribution soon, my heart was still in a mess after all, she had answered my call, proving that Dave was with her.In the afternoon of the next day, the Detective called and notified me that Lita had been arrested from her studio earlier. Lita had said a lot of arrogant words in front of the police but facing the evidence, she had to confess what she had done.Lita was detained and was not going to be released due to the seriousness of her crime.How familiar this plot was! It was me who had been detained those two previous times and now is her time.The second day after she was arrested, I went to see her.When Lita saw me, she rushed up and yelled angrily but

Although I drove Helen and Thomas away once, it didn't mean that I could live a comfortable life.Other relatives of the Defiant Family, who had never contacted me before, also called me several times. I didn't know their identities and answered their calls.Only after I picked up their calls did I know they were relatives of the Defiant Family.In the years when I was in Defiant Family, they didn't even say a word to me, let alone getting along with me. However, at this time, for Lita, they all tried to play up to me, hoping I would make peace with Lita outside court.It was impossible for me to agree with their requests.After I hung up the phone, I blacklisted all the numbers one by one.I only care about one person in the Defiant Family.In the end, Judith called me in person.When I received Judith's call, I couldn't help but feel nervous. Knowing that I surely couldn't hang up her call, I answered.Judith chatted with me for a while over the phone then she asked if I had time at

Dave caught up with me, pulled me back down the stairs, and pressed me against the wall. Burying his head in my neck and pressing his thin lips against my ears, he said slowly, "Withdraw the complaint, okay?"This time, it was clear he spoke in a gentle tone.There was even pleading in his tone.I closed my eyes, clenched my hands into a fist, and pressed them against the wall, "It's impossible. Unless I die."My answer was still the same."I knew all about your investigation earlier. I know you hate her. You are angry and you want to take revenge in this way. I understand your feelings so I never intervened in this matter, allowing the police to investigate. Now, she has been in the detention center for a month... If you think it's not enough, I can help her make it up to you."Hearing him, I was infuriated. "Make it up to me for her? Why do you have to do that for her?"I pushed Dave away. Looking at him, my heart hurt so much.I seemed to have realized something, "I get it. You w

After the phone connected, I said briefly, "I'll withdraw my case."The one over the phone was silent at first. After a while, I heard him say "Okay.""However, I have two conditions.""Name them.""First of all, you can't do anything to the orphanage and Haick Design.""Okay.""Secondly, I want a divorce."I had already figured it out. However much I loved Dave, Dave would only have Lita on his mind and in his heart. In that case, I shouldn't hold onto those unrealistic illusions anymore.Dave had never fallen in love with me. From the beginning to the end, he was always in love with Lita Defiant.Originally, I thought Dave would agree with my request without hesitation but there was silence instead.After a long while, Dave said, "I won't agree with the second one."I was a little surprised. "There are two conditions. Both of them are indispensable. At present, Mr. Mitaka, you'd better consider whether to save your lover or not. Enough with this painful marriage""Is our marriage a

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
