The CEO's Switched Bride Chapter 81
In the blink of an eye, it was Monday and I didn't know how I had gotten over from the weekend.I covered the dark circles under my eyes with concealer and applied blush on my face to make me look better.I tidied up my hair neatly and chose a set of clothes and then headed for the Civil Affairs Bureau.In my opinion, it should be the last time I would meet Dave.By the time I arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau, Dave was already at the entrance.The look on his face was bad and there were dark circles under his eyes with a stubble beard on his chin. He looked somewhat unkempt.This was the first time I had seen him like this. Normally, he was always perfect, mighty, and arrogant.I walked over to him. Before I could say anything, he spoke up first, "Do we have to divorce? Don't you want to think it through?"His tone was a little pleading and I thought I was hearing wrong."Let's get a divorce. Mr. Mitaka, don't get yourself immersed in your hatred. You'd better embrace a new life as

After that day, I was in a daze. Feeling absent minded, I often made mistakes while working.I apologized over and over again. Even so, I would always be distracted inadvertently.Every evening after I arrive home, I would always take a deep breath while standing at the door. After entering, I would look around hoping to find him but I always end up disappointed.I knew Dave wouldn't come over again but I still had hopes.To stop fantasizing about Dave, I simply asked the property management to change the lock of my door and specifically instructed them that no one else should be given access................At work, I was informed the manager wanted me in her office.I dropped all what I was doing and headed to her office. I had just entered when she said. "Reed Defiant, do you think we are eager and willing to recruit someone like you who has a criminal record?""What?"I looked at her in a daze. She, who had always been gentle, looked at me indifferent today. There was also a hin

He helped move Dave to my bed.I picked up my cell phone intending to call someone to come get him but when I looked at the phone, I was confused again.Who should I call to come get him? Except for Lita, among the ones who knew Dave, I didn't have their contact number.I took his body temperature with a thermometer and it was really high.I didn't understand. I wondered why he who was having such a serious fever, came to my house rather than go to the hospital. I couldn't go against my will as I was worried that something bad would happen to him. I could only call for an ambulance.Before the ambulance staff arrived, I intended to get a basin of water to help cool down his temperature but as soon as I was about to leave, Dave held me with a deadly grip, "Don't go."I turned around and looked at Dave who was in a daze…"Dave, let go. I'll fetch some water and cool you down a bit. I'll be right back."I explained it to him but Dave still grabbed my hand and didn't let go of me. "No. D

In a daze, I began to tell the one over the phone everything that had happened between Dave and I...It was unknown how long I had been talking nor did I know how I had fallen asleep. By the time I woke, it was evening.Feeling that I had a headache, I got up and cooked a bowl of instant noodles. Picking my cell phone, I intended to check the time only to find my cell phone was out of power. I couldn't even turn it on.I was a little puzzled. My cell phone had been fully charged this morning and I just helped Dave make a call for an ambulance.I plugged my cell phone on charged and went to down the instant noodles. By the time I was done eating, my phone was on.I clicked open the call log and found a number that wasn't saved in my phonebook on it. I recognized the number at a glance. This number belonged to the one who had funded my college tuition.I took a look at the call duration...The call lasted 182 minutes.Oh my God!I was scared out of my wits, wondering why I had talke

Hearing her mention Dave, I felt a little lost. After a long silence, I said, "We are divorced and I won't be connected to him anymore.""What? Did I just hear you right? You and Dave got divorced?"Kim looked at me."It's true."I told Kim about what had happened recently, including how I had been wronged and how I could have put Lita in jail.Hearing this, Kim wasn't as relaxed as before.Seeing that I was so depressed, she smiled again, "Okay, I'll stay with you in the City for some more days. I'll hold a party for you tonight to congratulate you on the fact that you are single again!""Just stay with me. There's no need to have a party.""Of course you should. Moreover, it won't be a party at all. We will just go out to vent our emotions so you will let go of everything."Kim's mouth was stuffed with bread but I still managed to hear what she was saying.That afternoon, Kim went back home and came back to my apartment in the evening to get me to go out.When she saw my outfit, she

Back at our table, Kim narrated what had happened. Only then did we know that the man we had seen just placed his hands on Kim's shoulder as soon as she walked by. Before Kim could react, he moved his hand down to her chest....After Kim finished her words, she added with a sad face, "Originally, I wanted to set you two up so you can talk with each other that was why I left. I didn't expect to meet such an ignorant man.""You didn't have to do that." Haick smiled and added, "I am fine with the current relationship between Reed and I."He had always been like this, he never pressured me.After drinking for a while longer, I felt dizzy. At this time, the man who was hit by Kim came in, a waiter followed behind him with a bottle of wine in hand.When Kim saw him, she immediately stood up, "What? Do you want me to hit you again?"The man wasn't angry nor did he flinch.He said with a smile, "I just came from abroad, so I didn't understand the domestic rules and accidentally offended you,

Haick wasn't bothered by Lita's word. He had his arm on my shoulder as he ushered me into the elevator but Dave walked out directly and blocked the entrance. He looked down at Haick and said, "Mr. Grimm, check the time. You are late..."Although Dave didn't finish his words, I knew what he wanted to do."Last night, we...""Yeah. Mr. Mitaka, I was just about to tell you I'm resigning. I'm going to pack up my things today so I won't be back to your company tomorrow."Haick interrupted me.I looked at him in surprise and wanted to ask why but he motioned me to the side, bypassed the two people in front of us, and went into the elevator.Although I dared not look into Dave's eyes, I could feel the coldness emanating from him.The fact that Dave and Lita both showed up in the hotel indicated that they probably had been here to have sex.Thinking of this, I was sad. Moreover, I felt my emotion was all over the place.It hurts again.I turned to Haick and apologized.Haick smiled and said

He accompanied me downstairs. When we got to the car, he said, "Look, I'm so popular, If you don't hurry up, I probably will be taken away by others.""Haick, I...""Well, it's a joke. Relax."Haick interrupted me but I still said, "Haick, you're so kind to me and you've sacrificed so much for me. I'm afraid that I'll never be able to pay your favor back for the rest of my life.""I'm good to you. It's my own business and it has nothing to do with you." Haick started the car and asked me, "Think about what we are going to eat later.".............................In the next few days, my colleagues knew Haick had come for me and many came to ask about him.A colleague even said to me, "Reed, if you don't say yes to Vice President Grimm, don't always keep him hanging. Make your position clear to him quickly so that we can have a chance."Haick happened to pass by when my colleague said this. He came in and said, "It's me who has been chasing after her all the time. It's good that she d

I went up and supported Jessica readily. Fearing that she wouldn't accept it, I said, "Aunt, can I bathe you? By the way... I can bathe your baby too.""It sounds good!" Jessica accepted it happily.All the nurses looked at me with strange looks.Ignoring the looks, I stepped forward and helped Jessica take a bath.The rehabilitation center of the Way Hospital was in a good condition. There was a Jacuzzi. After I finished pouring the water into the bath, I let Jessica sit inside.I cleaned up the doll first. Seeing that, Jessica became quite obedient.I bathed her with scented soap first and then rubbed her with a bath towel little by little.It had been a long time since Jessica took a bath, making her body covered with a layer of shell like and hard skin. Seeing so, I asked Oogway to fetch me some white vinegar. After that, I bathed her bits by bits.Sensing that the water turned cold, I scooped the cold water out with a basin and added hot water in.Because it had been years sinc

I stood still and said to her, "We won't do that. We... we'll transfer you and your child to a better place. She... She..." I hesitated for a moment and said, "She is all grown up. And she will have to go to school soon. It's not good for her to be here. She has to go to a better place where there are teachers to impart her knowledge, which is good for her."Upon hearing this, Jessica stared at me with her pair of clear and bright eyes as if she had understood my words and suddenly became as obedient as a child, saying, "Really? Is it true that someone will teach her?""Yes, it is true. The teacher is great and experienced. Any child who follows him can learn a lot and become smart." I tried to persuade her.Jessica nodded desperately, "Okay, okay. That will be so great." She looked at the doll in her arm, "Reed, did you hear that? You can learn soon.""Yes, yes." I echoed. And my tears kept falling.Oogway patted me on the shoulder and said, "Come on, let's go transfer her to another

The nurse took us inside and said, "To be honest, before you, nobody visited the patients here. Generally speaking, the reason why people send patients here is that they have a guilty conscience. They are too embarrassed to kill them and yet find them a burden. So they send them here and pay for their stay here to keep their conscience at bay."The more the nurse said, the more upset I felt.It was quiet on the fifth floor as well.I saw that there was a small window on the door of each ward. With the window high up on the door, someone my height couldn't see what was inside.However, Oogway was taller. He looked around with a frown and a dignified look on his face.Seeing him look like this, I was worried."Bang!" When we were going, a sound rang all of a sudden.I was so frightened that I shrank backward and looked at the door where the noise came from, only to find a face attached tightly to the window on the door.The face was black, dirty, and skinny.The pair of eyes above were

Oogway and I arrived at the gate together.As expected, there was a security guard at the gate . We went over and saw the old security guard laying there in a thick military green overcoat, listening to music.The sound of the music was quite loud.It wasn't until we called him for a long while that he heard us.Looking at us in discontent, the old guard got up and opened the window of the gatehouse, leaving it ajar."Hello, we want to...""No visit is allowed during the New Year."As soon as I opened my mouth, the guard snapped. After that, he closed the window.He was afraid that we would harass him. Then he locked the window from inside.I became anxious all of a sudden.Oogway beside me wasn't in a hurry at all.He reached out, took out his wallet from his pocket, and took out a stack of pink banknotes before putting them in front of the window.The security guard's eyes lit up as soon as he saw the money. Instead of opening the window, he came out directly from the gatehouse, o

I glanced at it and found that there seemed to be an inkstone in the first box.But what was different was that the inkstone wasn't black but red.I was confused. However, as soon as the Master of the Newman Family saw this, his hands began to tremble. Placing his hand a few meters away from the inkstone, he seemed to intend to touch it but dared not do so.After a long while, he asked, "Is this for me?""Of course, it is a red silk inkstone I got by chance. I don't know about this kind of inkstones. It will be a waste if I keep it by my side."Oogway said casually.Although he spoke lightly, I could tell that this inkstone should be quite rare."Thank you, Mr. Oogway." When the Master spoke, he had been staring at the inkstone. It wasn't until a long time later that he gently caressed it with his hands.His expression showed that he loved it so much that he couldn't bear to let it go.After that, Oogway said to the maid, "Open this too."Hearing his words, the maid opened the secon

There was a cold and determined look in his eyes. Confirming that he wouldn't say it, I wouldn't force him further.Moreover, I knew well that I couldn't control what they were going to do.What I could do was to protect Bryan well in case he would get hurt.I nodded lightly, "Okay. Then I'll go and accompany Bryan."As soon as I intended to open the door, Dave directly pulled me from behind with force. I was caught off guard and fell backward.The next second, I directly sat in Dave's arms.My face turned red. And I said, "No." I struggled to get up. However, Dave restrained me firmly in his arms and placed his other hand on my waist. Holding my waist with both hands, he said to me, "Turn around.""No. I'm leaving.""You can't." Dave refused.I closed my eyes, thinking about Oogway's words and my own identity.Although I wanted to be closer to Dave, I couldn't do it with my identity.I was Oogway's fiancee. Regardless of the excuse, the identity, or the reason. I made up my mind,

It was night. Even so, I could clearly feel Oogway kept staring at me closely with his pair of profound eyes.Oogway patted me on the shoulder and left.After he left, Bryan, who had been following Dave, suddenly ran over, "Mom, let's set off fireworks together!""Ah... Okay." I nodded.At this moment, Jamin, who had been standing outside all this while, turned around and entered the room.In the blink of an eye, only the three of us were outside the house.We set off most of the fireworks. By the time it was 1 a.m., Bryan was so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyes. Thus, we stopped setting off the fireworks.The maid took the fireworks into the room.Holding Bryan in my arms, I said to Dave, "Then we will go back."After that, I turned around, intending to ask the driver to drive us back, only to be suddenly pulled by Dave. Then, I heard his magnetic voice, "Stay here tonight."My heart thumped."Being here without Oogway.. Won't that mean..."In fact, I didn't want to leave a

I leaned on Oogway and played with my cell phone for a while before falling asleep.Located in the city center, Jamin's house was surrounded by residential communities. As soon as it was midnight, the sounds of firecrackers rang from all directions!I opened my eyes. Beside me, Oogway sat there with the same posture as he had before I went to bed.He looked at me. "You up?""Yes." I nodded and glanced at the watch on my cell phone, only to find that it had been midnight.Glamourous fireworks was on outside the window.Looking at Bryan sleeping soundly, I somewhat couldn't bear to wake him up.Oogway seemed to sense my hesitation and said with a smile, "Wake him up. It happens once a year. Otherwise, he will blame you."I nodded and patted Bryan's shoulder lightly. Putting my face close to his ear, I whispered, "Baby, get up, they've started setting off the firecrackers."Hearing my words, Bryan seemed to have been awakened by an alarm.He immediately opened his eyes and sat up from t

Oogway wasn't in a hurry. He slowly opened his mouth, "In fact, speaking of the dealership of this drug, across the whole country, there is at least...""Well, she was slow witted. My parents took her girl away and abandoned her, stimulating her in an instant. Then she was more out of her mind and scratched my mother's face, making it covered with bruises! So my parents sent her to a mental hospital!"James couldn't hold it in any longer and blurted it out in an instant.It turns out that my mother had experienced these. Then who on earth is my irresponsible father? According to what Kelvin said, my mother was beautiful and smart. When she left European Architecture, she was a normal person. How come she went crazy after returning to the City?I asked, "Which mental hospital did they sent her to?"James waved his hand, "I sincerely don't know this. That's all I know. I've said everything that I can say. As for the others, I have no idea about them.""Okay." Oogway nodded, "I'll ask m
