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

    Haick started the car as soon as I sat down but I didn't overthink it.I found we were on the highway in just a few turns.Looking ahead, I noticed the toll station. "Where are we going?" I was shocked."You have no place to spend the New Year, right? I'll take you to my hometown to have fun. There are many places around my hometown where we can enjoy ourselves." Haick said as he drove."Your hometown?" I was shocked. "No need. No need. I don't have anything with me."I even wondered whether Haick was going to introduce me to his parents. I didn't bring anything with me. Nor did I bring any clothes. How could I just go there like this?Haick saw through my mind as he said, "Don't worry. I won't let you live in my house. You can stay at a hotel."I wasn't at ease but no matter what I said, Haick had no intention to drive back.I felt as if I had been tricked but I couldn't go back by myself. I had to agree that I would spend a day and go back two days later.Haick's hometown wasn't fa

    Haick seemed to have said something to his parents so they didn't ask about my relationship with him.Sitting on the sofa with Haick's family, I watched the New Year Gala while enjoying fruits.After midnight, we went out and lit firecrackers together.This was the most amazing New Year's Eve I have ever had and it was all thanks to Haick that I had a chance to experience such a night.At around 2 o'clock in the morning, Haick sent me back to my hotel.After I returned to the hotel, I layed on the bed, feeling everything was unreal.Outside the hotel, the sound of firecrackers was still ongoing.The new year celebration was still on and I didn't feel lonely for the first time in a long time.I secretly thought that maybe I should simply say yes to Haick.I surely would have a happy life if I married him......................Early the next morning, Haick came to pick me up and took me out to have fun.There was an ancient town next to his hometown.

    As the two of us were chatting, we heard a noise outside the office. It seemed the manager was in.Our colleagues were busy greeting her, wishing her Happy New Year.Originally, I didn't care about it at first but she suddenly stood at the door of my office and looked at Haick who was half squatting, "Stop hitting on her and come to the meeting room now."After that, she left in a hurry.I could tell from her voice something was seriously up.After Haick left, my colleagues came and gathered around to have a discussion.It seemed all the leaders above the middle level had been summoned to attend the meeting. Judging from the manager's expression, it seemed that something serious had happened.Everyone was discussing what the big deal was.Someone asked, "Is the company going bankrupt?"Another said mysteriously, "My uncle knows the shareholders of our company. During the New Year holidays, he said someone had bought the shares of another shareholder at a high price. I'm afraid we are

    Soon, we arrived at the floor where Jessica's ward lay. When we went over, a nurse happened to come out of it. Upon seeing us, she greeted Oogway respectfully, "Dean Oogway.""Yes." Oogway nodded and asked, "How's Miss Jessica?"After Jessica was transferred here, Oogway completed the registration for her under the name of Jessica Drake.As for this, I didn't raise any objections about it. Because in my opinion, the Newman Family no longer regarded her as a family member.The nurse replied, "The patient has fallen asleep. I measured her temperature just now. It's normal. This afternoon, we examined her, only to find that she is seriously malnourished. She suffers from a low degree cataract in her eyes. More heinously, there are parasites inside her body. Besides..."Standing there, the nurse told us about the situation of Jessica roughly.Hearing the ins and outs, Kelvin looked serious on the side.Oogway asked, "Can we go in and have a look at her?""Yes. But she has fallen asleep. H

    Kelvin spoke loudly over the phone.Moreover, it was pretty quiet inside the car. Oogway seemed to hear his words and glanced at me out of the corner of his eyes, "Is Mr. Kelvin coming over?"I nodded.Oogway immediately said, "Then I'll arrange a room for him on the top floor of the rehabilitation center.""Well, sorry to trouble you."I was grateful for Oogway's attentiveness.As we were about to arrive home. I suddenly remembered something and said to Oogway, "Can you take me somewhere?""Yes, I can." Oogway nodded.I got an address online and sent it to him.Oogway immediately turned the car around and drove there with me.As he turned the car around, he raised his hand and looked at me with some displeasure, saying, "In the future, wherever you want to go, just tell me directly. You don't have to ask my opinion first. I will always be available for you."I nodded. Only after that did I tell him where I was going.It was a light and textile market selling cloth and hand made craf

    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
