Three days later, the company had a new boss and he would take office that day.I didn't see the mysterious boss that day but there were all sorts of rumors about him in the office.Some said he was an old man while others said he was a handsome young man.At noon, when I went to lunch, I saw some people from furniture home carrying new furniture inside. The furniture was very luxurious, including a leather sofa and a huge mahogany desk. Seeing these, I couldn't help but think of a person...But soon, I dismissed this idea.How could the new boss be Dave Mitaka? His company wasn't specialized in design at all, especially interior design. If he acquired so many companies without a valid reason, could it be he is so rich that he simply wanted to waste his money away?That day, the company had a meeting in the afternoon. It was clear that all leaders above the middle level were in the meeting but I was called over, which was a surprise to me.And after I went in, I found that Haick was
Dave turned his head and staggered backwards a few steps.I looked up and saw the person standing in front of me at this point, "Haick."After calling out to him I felt tears well up in my eyes.He was my hero, he would always show up when I needed him the most.Glancing at me with distress, Haick took off his suit jacket and put it on me. He then turned to Dave, "Reed is my girlfriend. Stay away from her!"Dave wiped the corner of his mouth and snorted but didn't say anything.Haick picked me up in his arms and walked out of the door.Surprisingly, Dave didn't catch up with us.After I got into Haick's car, he tidied up the suit jacket on my body and checked if I was wrapped tightly then he said, "I'm sorry. I'm incompetent and I can't beat him now but are you willing to go abroad with me?""Yes."This time, I responded without hesitation.Hearing my answer, Haick spread his arms and held me in his arms, saying, "Great. You won't regret it."He was excited.I inexplicably felt a litt
Standing at the door, Dave stared straight at the camera as if he was looking at me.He said, "Reed Defiant, I'm crazy.""What?"Hearing him say that all of a sudden, I got confused."I know I can't like you and I shouldn't but I don't know. You are always on my mind. I think I'm going crazy. I know I have done some unjustifiable things and I know acquiring your company and forcing you to be my assistant will surely make you hate me but I couldn't help it. As long as you are with me, even if you hate me to your bone, it doesn't matter..."Due to the high resolution of the video house call, I could clearly see Dave's eyes and his expression.His expression indicated regret. For a second, I placed my hand on the doorknob and felt an impulse to open the door to let him in.I didn't have to. Dave hurt me so badly. If I gave him a chance now, what was I going to say to Haick?I closed my eyes and said cruelly, "You don't love me. You just love the feeling of you not being able to have me."
I found Haick's mother strange. It seemed she was completely different from the one I had seen on New Year's eve.I called Haick.As soon as the phone connected, I spoke up first, "Haick, how about we don't go abroad? Let's move to another city.""What's wrong?"As Haick heard my words, his tone sounded somewhat rash.I didn't want to blame everything on his mother so I said, "I just think that moving now isn't a better thing. We would be clueless in a foreign country. If we go abroad, I...""Did Dave say something to you?"Before I could finish my words, he interrupted me.There was a clear indication of anger in his voice. I was a little surprised but I denied it, "No. It has nothing to do with him.""Then I will not change my mind."Haick said firmly and hung up the call. He didn't even give me a chance to explain.This was so unlike him which startled me.It was as if he had been transformed into another person but when I thought of his mother's words, I called him back.This tim
Haick's father noticed my presence. The sadness on his face immediately turned into anger as he raised his fist, intending to hit me.Haick was startled as he flashed before me and blocked his father.Haick's father's eyes were red with anger. Although he was stopped by Haick, he scolded. "It's all because of you. You seduced my son and asked him to take you abroad! It's all because of you!""Dad, it has nothing to do with her." He pointed to me and said, "You have been seduced by her and you won't take my advice at all. When she came to our house last time, I felt she had a seductive look and that she wouldn't be someone righteous. I knew it!"."Dad, stop it!"Haick stopped his father from saying anything more but his father was getting more and more angrier.I looked at them and wondered whether the both of them were the ones I had seen during the New Year holiday.Why did they change their attitude towards me so dramatically within such a short time?Being stopped by Haick, Haick'
Looking at her, I didn't feel happy after posting the photos, I only felt that she deserved it."Well, I've posted the photos and I'm going home to reply to the comments." I smiled and added, "In addition to this, I intend to post the photos on several popular forums so everyone can see what kind of genius the main designer of Lita Design Studio is."After that, I walked in the direction of my apartment.It was late and there was only a few people walking on the street. Although we were making such a scene, no one paid any attention us.I was familiar with the environment of the residential quarter so I got rid of Lita by taking a shortcut however, when I arrived at the entrance of the block of my apartment, Lita suddenly rushed out of the flowering shrub on the side and blocked the door with a grim smile on her face,"Reed Defiant, you can only play against me in this way but I have tens of thousands of ways to play against you!""Is that so?" I looked up at her.In fact, I believed
As Lita was in tears, she looked like a weeping beauty.I had known early that Lita wouldn't admit it.She had worked so hard for so long just to make Dave think highly of her. In that case, how could she let him change his perception of her and think badly of her so easily? But I didn't care about this anymore. I looked at Dave beside me and asked him, "Mr. Mitaka, I wonder if you did mean what you said previously?"I was just making a bet by asking him such a question.It was not a bet on his feelings for me but a bet on his possessive desire for me.Dave looked at me with hesitation.Although I had told him what Lita had said and what she had done just now, it was obvious that he wasn't completely convinced.When Lita saw Dave's hesitation, she immediately became alert and asked, "What did he say to you?""Guess it by yourself..."I looked at Lita, curled up the corner of my mouth slightly and with my expression deliberately showing mystery."What did you tell her?"Lita raised he
In the next few days, I had been living in Dave's apartment in Unit No.1.Although Dave asked me to sleep with him every night, he didn't have sex with me.When Dave went to work, maids would usually be around. If I didn't call them, they wouldn't come out so I took the opportunity to search inside his place but I didn't find any trace indicating Lita had visited.Could it be that although I had seen Lita show up in this residential quarter several times, she hadn't come to Dave's house?But then who did she visit here?After making sure she hadn't come to Dave's place, I decided to go out the next day to find a new work related to my field.That morning, I got up and waited for Dave to go out. However, Dave sat at home after breakfast. It seemed he didn't want to leave at all."Aren't you going to work?" I sat at the dining table across from him and asked.Dave elegantly touched the corner of his mouth with a tissue and looked at me. Unexpectedly, with a gentle expression on his face
At the mention of Teresa, Finn's attitude was different from Katy's. He seemed to have no idea about Teresa's heartlessness.He looked at me and said, "Reed, it was my fault. I shouldn't have flirted with Jessica because I was married. But, but I really couldn't control myself. During that ime, I really loved her, even now I..."Finn didn't go on, but his face was full of regret.I narrowed my eyes and looked at him. Then I sneered, Mr. Finn, do you have a dead brain? Or do you have a bad memory? A few months ago, you dropped a card and said you wanted to draw a line to keep your distant from us. Don't you remember?""You cheated my mother's feelings and took her to the City. She was a healthy person before, but she was driven crazy by your wife, who is a vixen. The Newman family didn't accept her, and I grew up in a family that didn't love me. How can you be so shameless to call me daughter?"Originally, my mood was very calm. Looking at Finn, I felt like I was watching his play. How
Pigs might fly. Katy came to meet me!When I saw her, I didn't think much and turned to leave. Katy saw me and rushed out, "Alina, I'm here for you."Her voice was loud, and several colleagues looked over. However, I had no intention of entering the meeting room. Standing at the door, I looked at her with a little vigilance and sked, "Mrs. Katy, I don't think I have anything to do with you. What can I do for you?"Looking at my attitude, Katy was not angry at all. She said with a smile, "Come in. I have something to tell you.""Let's talk about it here. After all, we haven't gotten on well before. What if you hit yourself and blame it on me?" I said.There was CCTV in the conference room but I said so on purpose.In fact, I am not afraid that Katy will hit me. I am afraid that I can't help hitting her.Hearing this, Katy was a little embarrassed."No, no, come in, I'll only talk with you." She seemed to be afraid that I wouldn't go in, so she added, "Do I have to beg you."Beg me?
Bryan had been treated for a week.The fever had also subsided, and his vitals had also stabilized.These days, it's Janice who delivered food to me and Bryan.Today, Janice sent food again. There were vegetables, ribs, fish soup, and rice.Bryan's appetite recovered well, and he ate a big bowl of food in a short time.After the meal, I found that the weather outside was good, so I wanted to check with the doctor to see if I could take Bryan out for a walk.The doctor checked Bryan and agreed.Janice went to the backyard of the hospital with me.There was a small garden in the backyard, surrounded by many benches. Other patients were sitting on benches, basking in the sun."Miss Jetson."When I was walking with Bryan, someone called me from behind.I looked back and saw that it was Eunice."Miss Eunice?"I was a little surprised, so I quickly let Janice take care of Bryan and walked over to Eunice.Eunice wore a cloth hat. I could see at a glance that there seemed to be no hair under
Desmond's face turned pale. "No, that was before I met you, I really haven't messed with anyone since I met you, I swear...""Really? I've seen several of them. Next time, if you want to deceive me, make drafts first."Kim's face was full of mockery.I could see Desmond was sweating. Не showed a pleasing smile on his face, put his palms together and winked at me.I knew that he was asking me to help.I tugged at Kim's arm and said, "Alright, a prodigal who returns is more precious than gold. Forgive him for the mistakes he made before.""That's right! They are previous mistakes!" Hearing my words, Desmond immediately cast a grateful look at me.He also put on an expression of gratitude.Kim couldn't stand it. She looked at Desmond and said, "I forgive you because my Reed said to. If you dare to do it again, I'll break your leg!""Which one?""Both!""I don't dare, I won't!"They left joking.I watched them get into the elevator. I felt half of my worries had been put to rest.The othe
I looked at Oogway and didn't know how to answer for a while.He turned to look at the ward and said, "I'm no longer young. I can distinguish what I am obsessed with."Although he didn't look at me, I could tell from his expression that he was serious.Which made me sure that what he had clung to was really not like what I thought.I also followed his gaze and looked into the ward.In the ward, Bryan was looking at us.When he found that I was looking at him, he forced a smile and waved at me.I waved back.When I thought of Bryan being fine soon, my heart, which had been hanging, gradually relieved.Oogway must have seen our interaction, so he let out a chuckle.When I turned my head to look at him, he happened to look at me as well.He leaned forward slightly and asked seriously, "Do you know why Dave agreed to marry the Defiant Family?"I was a little confused by him for mentioning this.Oogway saw through my doubts and continued, "Because I found Lita and told her about what happe
Oogway looked at me, and his eyes were cold.For the sake of Bryan, I couldn't care so much. I took the man's arm and said in a friendly tone, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. I won't go to the bar again. Please forgive me."Oogway looked at me saying nothing.I didn't know what he meant.I stared at him quietly and didn't know what to do next.What else does he want me to do?My mind wandered, but I was already fully prepared for anything that could happen.After a while, Oogway put the ring in his pocket, stood up and said, "Let's go.""OK!"I thought he had forgiven me, so I hurried to follow him.We sat in his car together.The smell of alcohol lingered in his car.I was a little embarrassed but I didn't say anything.Oogway started the car and drove out of the community.The car drove for a while before I noticed that it didn't seem to be heading toward the City Hall, so I got nervous again and looked at Oogway, "Where are we going?""To pick up Bryan."He kept his eyes on the road as
Oogway picked me up and carried me into the car. I looked at him as he started the engine. I grabbed his arm and said, "I don't want to go home.""You don't?" He raised his eyebrows slightly."If I go back like this, they will be worried. Please help me... Call Kelvin and tell him I'll not go home today."I was so drunk. They will be worried about me if I went back. After all, I would not drink for no reason.Oogway nodded. I sat in the passenger seat and listened to him call Kelvin.When he hung up, he handed me the phone and started the car, "Is it okay to go to our home?"Our home?Oh, I know where it is.I nodded.I was going to be his wife anyway. That place was going to be our home in the future.I wouldn't be able to escape the reality.After a while, I fell asleep dazedly. However, maybe it was because I was in Oogway' car, I didn't sleep too deep.Not knowing how long had passed, I felt the car had stopped and he carried me.It was pitch black in front of me. I opened my e
In the evening, even the most prosperous place in the City was quiet. Around the high office buildings, there were only a few lights that were still on.I drove to the gate of Mitaka Group.I got out of the car and went to the entrance.The entrance had been closed. I wanted to go in, but a security guard came over and said, "It's closed."I looked up at the large building, except for the security room lights being on, the whole building was all dark.It seemed that Towering High was very kind to the employees, and there was not even a person working overtime.I didn't know what I wanted to do here. I hesitated for a moment, turned around and left.Back in the car, I continued driving.Finally, I found a lively place.On both sides of the road, rows of luxury cars were parked. At the entrance, the young men and women dressed in various kinds of clothes were chatting at the door, and some people were vomiting in the tree pits.Liquor.I wanted to drink.Perhaps if I was drunk, I would
Oogway put his arm around my waist and said to Teresa, "Miss Teresa, you are also a famous lady in this City. Whether in terms of social status or background, you are better than my Alina. But men love her, not you. Don't you think it's shameful? What are you still arguing for?"He made Teresa's face turn pale in a few words.She stared at Oogway and said with a fake smile, "Well, well, what's wrong with you? Do you believe she loves you and is willing to marry you just because she says? Tell you what, Oogway, she and Dave love each other no matter where they are!""Since you know it, what are you clinging to?"Oogway asked her.Teresa looked at Oogway and sneered. "Then what are you clinging to? We are all clinging to the same thing. Why do you ask me?"Hearing what Teresa said, Oogway's face was still calm.He drew back his hand, propped both elbows on the table, looked at Teresa and said slowly, "How do you know that we are clinging to the same thing?"Teresa suddenly became speech
