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

    Oogway Mitaka."Help me!"When I saw him, I felt as if I had seen my savior. Seeing this scene, Oogway seemed to understand something at once. He immediately rushed over and pulled Dave's arm, saying, "Dave, let go of her.""Get out of my way." Dave held me tighter.Oogway was about the same height as Dave but his physique was not as Dave's. Even so, he blocked Dave as he said, "You're drunk. Dave, let her go or I'll call the police!""Call the police?" Dave looked up at Oogway in front of him and sneered, "Uncle, other people don't know what kind of person you are but I know who you are very well. You living next door to her, I've always wondered whether it was a coincidence but....""It is a coincidence. I was here before she moved in." Oogway cut Dave off."A coincidence?... I thought you were a dog brought back home by the Mitaka Family but I didn't expect you to be an ungrateful wolf. Get out of my way!"When I heard Dave's words, I instantly became angry. I glanced at him and

    "He doesn't care about me at all." I shook my head and with a wry smile added "Living in the Mitaka Family, he always get what he wants. No one says no to him and no one dares to disobey him. He is just like this because he can't get me.""It's not just him. Everyone in the Mitaka Family is like this. After all, they were born in such a family..." Oogway lowered his eyelashes slightly as he spoke.I could see the disappointment in his eyes.I tried to comfort him. "Oogway, don't be sad. You have a family that acknowledges you, not mine."I started to talk about what I had experienced endlessly.Oogway listened and in the end, he said, "Thank you for telling me your personal affairs. It's Dave's loss that he doesn't cherish you."It was late at night. Oogway and I said goodbye to each other and went home respectively.That night, I couldn't sleep.The next day, I went to work with dark circles under my eyes. As soon as I entered the office, I saw my colleagues crowding together and g

    The venue was in one of the best hotels in the City Y. If a company could hold its annual conference here, it indicated that the company was financially powerful. However, our company only booked a small banquet hall.At first, I was worried that my outfit would be too exaggerated but after I went in, I found that everyone else was dressed to the nines with exquisite makeup. Only then was I relieved.I took off my coat after getting in.Haick was the Vice President. As soon as he got in, he was called away by the manager. He asked me to tag along but I refused. After all, all the executives were by the manager's side. As a young designer, I surely would make them dissatisfied if I joined.I found a seat in the corner and sat down.As soon as I sat down, a man sat next to me.I knew who he was. He was Anthony Brahe from the Customer Service Department.As soon as Anthony sat down, he said, "Reed, you used to wear conservative outfits in the company. I didn't expect you to have such a g

    Dave was infuriated when he heard my words. He increased the strength in his hand. His other hand was no longer pressing against the wall. He clung to my waist tightly with his hand and said, "As long as you say it, I won't be your brother in law. I'll be your man.""Let me go!" I tried pushing him but to no avail.I felt his lower member attached to my lower body and I felt a strong sense of danger."I miss you very much, Reed. Did you know? You are all I can think about every time since you left."Dave held me in his arms and looked up at me with strong desire in his eyes..."You're drunk..."Every time he said this, he was either sick or drunk but Dave looked at me and said word by word, "I haven't taken a single drop of wine yet."Only then did I realize I didn't smell any alcohol on him.He was completely sober.I dared not make random guesses. I looked at him, "Brother in law, then don't talk nonsense. The one you love is Lita Defiant. Never will you love me in your life. Yo

    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
