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.

    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

    Dave rolled his eyes at Desmond and said, "You are so nosy. Go and drive the car.""Yes, yes!" Although Desmond promised readily, he looked at Kim's back reluctantly.Desmond sent us home. At the residential quarters, Dave took me upstairs. Along the way, he kept a straight face.I was nervous as I wondered why he was angry.Was it because I misunderstood him this afternoon or because I didn't pick up his calls?I was even more worried about what would happen at home...When the door was opened, I looked inside feeling a little scared.I wondered if Dave would lock me up.Or...While I was randomly guessing, Dave stretched out his hand and pulled me into the house directly.I subconsciously apologized, "I'm sorry, I..."Before I could finish my words, Dave suddenly hugged me.He hugged me tightly.I was stunned as my body pressed against Dave's chest.At this moment, I could only hear the sound of his strong heartbeat.It wasn't until a few seconds later that I heard Dave's voice abo

    Looking at Bryan, I felt a heart wrenching pain. However, I didn't know how to comfort him.At this time, Jason on the side raised his hand to rub Bryan's hair and said, "Of course, your dad won't do that. Every father in the world loves his children the most. Of course, your dad surely won't abandon you.""Is it true?""It's true!" Jason nodded with certainty.He pushed the shopping cart away.Looking at the bottle of energy drink that Dave had put down, somehow, I picked it up and put it in the shopping cart.After we went back home that night, I cooked. And Jason accompanied Bryan to build Lego.Everything was as usual.Ding. Dong.Someone rang the doorbell.Jason went to open the door. I stood aside and felt a little puzzled. After all, no one would visit me.After Jason opened the door, I saw a look of surprise on his face.The next second, I saw Dave pushing him away and stepping into the room. Looking around, he saw me, went straight over, and grabbed my arm, saying, "Let's

    The next day, Jason arrived with a leather suitcase.Bryan was so happy. It was also a Friday.Originally, Jason was about to leave at night. However, Bryan insisted on not letting him go. Whatever I said, he wouldn't listen to me.In the end, we couldn't persuade Bryan, so I had to let Jason stay overnight...That day seemed to be a turning point.Since that day, Jason had been living in my home. Occasionally, he would go back to school but most of the time, he lived here.I trusted him. Usually, I would leave a few hundred dollars at home and ask him to go out to the supermarket to buy things for me.What's more, after Jason stayed here on weekends, I could go to the driving school to learn to drive over the weekends, which benefited me and significantly shorten the duration of getting a driving license.Because I could go to the driving school on the weekends, I passed the vehicle driving license exam of subject three soon. After that, I made a reservation for subject four.To cel

    I knew that Jason surely knew where he should have put the Lego piece. It was just that he used this method to make Bryan think on his own.The two of them were having a good time at this time. When I entered the room, neither Jason nor Bryan noticed me.Within a day, the two of them got along with each other so well. Only then did I feel that Jason was quite reliable.I changed my shoes and walked inside.Jason quickly stood up and said, "Sister Alina, let me prepare dinner for you.""No, let me do it." I looked at my watch and found that it was past six p.m. Then I said, "Go back to school now.""Okay." Jason nodded his head.Cleaning up the Lego pieces on the ground, Jason promised Bryan that he would piece the Lego with him tomorrow and left.After I finished cooking and asked Bryan to have dinner, Bryan stared at me and said, "Mom, can you pay brother Jason more so that he can accompany me longer?"I was stunned. And I immediately wondered whether Jason had asked Bryan to say s

    A week later, Jason came to my house for the first time on a Monday.I got up at 7 a.m, changed my clothes, and went downstairs, planning to cook. Ding!Ding! My cell phone rang.It was a text from Jason, which read, "Sister Alina, I'm at the door of your house. If you are up, please open the door for me."I opened the door quickly.I saw Jason standing at the door in a light blue T shirt. Rolling up the sleeves to his shoulders, he revealed his skinny and yet muscular arms. With a pair of sports shorts on his lower body, a pair of sneakers, and white socks on.The morning sunlight shone on his face and shone into his eyes, making him outgoing and bright."Why did you come so early?" I was a little surprised.Jason said seriously, "Sister Scarlett told me that you are quite busy, asking me to come here to make breakfast early. After I arrived here, fearing that you hadn't woken up, I waited at the door for a while. After hearing that there was movement inside, I sent the text."For

    Not long after that day, a female superstar was revealed to have slept with different men, overshadowing all news related to me.In the end, my life went to as peaceful as it used to be.The studio gradually returned to normal. And the renovation of the former studio had almost been done. So we moved back.I transformed one of Judith's guest rooms into Bryan's room and got him back to my side.If Bryan went to the same kindergarten as he did before, it would be troublesome. So I intended to transfer him to another kindergarten.It just so happened that Marie found a kindergarten offering a semi boarding service for Aurelia. She could live there from Monday to Thursday. And Marie would pick her up and take her home on weekends.According to Marie, she had studied this kindergarten for a long time and found it quite reliable. So I sent Bryan there as well.Since Bryan wasn't home at ordinary times, I had a lot of free time.Apart from learning to drive, I focused on my work.Once I beca

    I followed him into the elevator specifically for the president. Dee stood in front of me. Through the mirror in the elevator door, I could see that he looked dignified.Walking out of the elevator, I saw that the whole top floor was the same as before.Dee took me to the door of Dave's office. Knocking twice on the door, he said, "Mr. Mitaka, she's here."Then he pushed the door open slightly and motioned me to go in.It seems that Dave had known I will come.I looked at the door and felt extremely nervous. Taking a deep breath, I pushed the door open and walked in.In the office, Dave sat in front of a large L shaped desk with a document in one hand and a folder in the other, correcting the document.I walked in. He paused what he was doing for a moment. Without raising his head, he asked, "What do you want to say?"If Dave's attitude to me was as normal as usual, I might indeed think that I had seen something wrong. However, judging from the current scene, I knew that I hadn't se

    Lying there, I rested for quite a while before sitting up.Looking at the dim living room around me, I saw a faint light shining through the window of the living room. Searching the living room carefully, I was sure Dave hadn't come back.Yeah, he didn't come back. Otherwise, seeing that I fell down, he surely would come to me.I thought of the kiss at noon.I, who had been pretending to be strong, could no longer disguise myself.I stood where I was and kept telling myself, "Aren't you going to be independent of him? Aren't you going to stop thinking about him?"After all, everything would only get worse and worse if we were together. It would be better if we weren't together.In that case, the ones I loved wouldn't get hurt.How nice it would be!I kept telling myself this.Yeah. Since I decided to break up with him, I would have to make things clear to him face to face, right?I was deceiving myself in my mind.Rubbing my waist, I took out my cell mobile phone from my pocket.

    Marie sighed, "Alina Jetson, oh, Alina Jetson. Sometimes I really don't know whether you are smart or stupid. Dave is so good to you. Why did you hide this from him?""I..." I turned around, "I don't want to make trouble for him. I think I can solve this independently. If I tell him, he will definitely help me. I am independent. And I can't always be protected by him, can I?""Are you making blind and disorderly conjectures?" Marie looked at me with a frown."Am I thinking randomly?"I didn't know what to say at the moment.Marie took my hand and said, "He may be having a meeting. Don't think too much. As Scarlett said, he's a president. How can he hang around you all day? Maybe he hasn't seen the press conference up till now."I knew that what Marie had said wouldn't happen.When I left, I remembered Dave's expression very clearly.He surely knew that I was going to do something that I kept from him.Scarlett shouted from the side, "Let's go have the meal quickly. I'm so hungry."Wit

    At this time, Harry looked at Matt on the side, "Vice Dean Parma, it's your turn."Matt stood there with a look of embarrassment on his face.Matt was dressed in a gray blue jacket, a pair of sweatpants, and a pair of sneakers, looking casual.It was as if someone had forcibly dragged him over here while he was doing his morning running.Hearing how Harry called Matt, all the reporters under the stage suddenly understood who Matt was. All of a sudden, they all aimed the cameras at him!Matt lowered his head, clenched his hands into fists. The conference room was not hot at all. But I could clearly see a layer of sweat on Matt's forehead."Vice Dean Parma?" Harry raised his voice, called out once again, and handed Matt the microphone he had used just now.This time, Matt finally moved. He raised his hand to take the microphone over and looked at the audience with a dull look. Then he opened his mouth as if he had made up his mind, "I'm Matt Parma. I testify that what Alina said just n
