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
This island wasn't a really big one. Its area was almost two times that of the whole residential quarter of Unit No.1.The restaurant on the island was next to the beach.When Dave and I were sitting for dinner, I noticed the sun setting little by little and finally, disappeared above the sea.Such a scene was pretty.After dinner, Dave took me to his room so I could change into the clothes he had prepared for me in advance.I flipped through the clothes and found that the clothes he had prepared were either bikinis or semi coated sunlight proof clothing..."These clothes...""I..."Carrying a bikini top in my hand, intending to question Dave, he hugged me from behind.He gently kissed my hair and said in an ambiguous tone, "Besides the ones guarding the island, I am the only one here. Feel free to wear it. Only I will see you."Although I didn't want to wear a bikini, I surely couldn't get used to the weather on the island with my current outfit.I could only choose a bikini which wa
I opened my eyes and looked at the big house, thinking of what Blue had said over the phone.Dave was a businessman.These capitalists were always keen on profit.He once promised he wouldn't do anything to Haick Design but he had gone back on his words.Why do I feel that what Blue said has nothing to do with him?What's more, Blue said Haick's mother had got a sum of money from the Mitaka Group...I was restless and the temperature in the house was low so I changed my clothes and sat in the garden downstairs.When I was staring at the sereny in a daze, I saw Oogway passing by from a distance. He was walking to his apartment.Just as I was hesitating whether to say hello to him or not, he turned his head and happened to see me.At first, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes but soon it was replaced by a smile.He came up to greet me and asked, "Why are you here?""I have nothing to do, so I came out to enjoy the senery."I was lying.Oogway seemed to see through me at a glance.
Kim's house was as messy as usual.I went straight to the kitchen to make her something first. However, as soon as I opened the refrigerator, a foul smell came out and water dripped out too.I tilted my head and glimpsed at the plug next to the refrigerator. The poor plug was lying quietly on the ground.I couldn't help complaining, "Are you sure you want to cook with the ingredients in your refrigerator?"Kim came over and saw the messy scene in the refrigerator. She patted her forehead and said, "I forgot to plug the refrigerator in the socket.""I'll clean up the refrigerator for you.""No need. no need. Let's go out to eat. I'll hire someone from the housekeeping company to clean it up tomorrow."Kim pulled me out as I got a cloth and was about to clean up the dirty water on the ground.She brought me to a spicy hot pot store near her house. The owner was an old lady.Since it was early spring, the weather was very cold so there wasn't any guest at all.As soon as Kim entered the
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
