"How about this?" Comfort looked at Thomas and said, "Transfer Mom to a hospital at Second Best Level where the price of ICU won't be so high. Then we can hire her a guardian with higher pay."Hehe.They already made a good plan.I would pay for the hospitalization fee and they would pay for the care fees.The monthly pay of a caretaker was only two days' cost of the hospitalization expenses but I had no choice. I didn't want Judith to be stripped off the breathing machine so early.Thomas agreed with Comfort's idea.The two of them immediately made a phone call and transferred Judith to a Second Best Level Hospital.With expenses of ICU and others counting together, it would cost about 5 thousand dollars a day if Judith was transferred there.Compared with the expenses of the first Hospital, the expenses there were much more affordable.The next day, they transferred Judith.I went to check on the situation of the new hospital and found that the conditions indeed couldn't be on par w

Chapter 182

After the coffee we had ordered was served, Thomas said, "Reed, your grandmother was transferred to a Second Best Level Hospital. She will only cost you more than a few thousand dollars a month. You surely have a lot of money left in your pocket after you sold the apartment, don't you?"I immediately understood why he had come to me humbly.He was lusting for my money."Enough!" I pushed the coffee in front of me and took out a banknote of 100 dollars from my bag. I placed it on the table and added, "I will reserve the rest of the money for Grandma's hospitalization fees. I won't lend it to anyone. I won't even touch it."After that, I got up and left.Thomas chased after me to the door, "Reed, I'm not asking you for help. I'm borrowing the money from you. My company is in need of capital recently..."I refused firmly, "I'm sorry, I can't help you.""Reed.""Mr. Thomas, you'd better call me Reed Defiant. You cut off your relationship with me. Have you forgotten about it?"As soon as a

I couldn't hear Helen's answer but I could see the look on Thomas' face had became a little stiff.He looked at me and said, "Grilled chicken sandwich, salmon, and...""Stop it. Mr. Thomas, these are Lita's favorite not mine."When I asked him that question, I had a sort of unrealistic expectation in my heart but when Thomas spoke, I gave up.Lita couldn't eat greasy dishes so the dishes she liked were all light however, I liked greasy dishes.I walked to the subway entrance. Thomas chased me and asked me to go to his house as he apologized.I would have gone with him but his request was a little unusual.The more he looked like this, the more I felt something was wrong. It seemed to be a feast with ulterior motives.I feared I wouldn't come back alive if I followed him.I scanned my subway card and went in. He wanted to chase after me but only one with the pass can walk through the gate.He, who was stopped outside, couldn't come in.The staff next to him also shouted, "Sir, you can

Chapter 184

There wasn't even a single car on the road tonight.The sky was dark and there weren't any stars nor the moon.It was unknown as to how long I had been running. Finally, I saw two beams of light breaking through the dark streets and flying toward me."Stop!""Stop!"I rushed straight to the front of the car without thinking.It was so late and the harsh braking sound was particularly ear piercing in the quiet night but the car still didn't stop.Bang! It hit me, causing me to fly backward.I was thrown backward only a few meters away.A man got off the car quickly and asked, "Are you alright?"Although I felt my legs were somewhat in pain, I didn't have time to think about that. I limped forward and said sadly, "Sir, please send me to the Hospital down town."When I got close to the driver...He called out, "Reed Defiant?""Mr. Oogway?"I never expected I would meet Oogway of all people in such a big City.He bent over to check on my legs and asked with more concern, "Are you okay? I

It was as if what's going on right now wasn't reality, but a dream and after I wake up, Judith would still be alive...By the time I turned around again, every one of the Defiant Family had left.Oogway insisted on sending me home however, when I came to my senses, I found that he had driven to Unit No.1.I, who was a little embarrassed, explained to Oogway, "I moved out of here. I no longer live here.""I know." Oogway parked the car, got out and opened the door of the passenger seat for me, saying, "You will stay at my place tonight.""What?"I sat in the car and looked at him in a daze.Oogway looked at me while adjusting his glasses, "There is a guest bedroom in my apartment. I won't be at ease if I let you go home alone tonight and don't worry, you're the beloved one of Dave. I won't do anything to you."After Oogway finished his words, he smiled faintly.His words stung me deeply..Am I the beloved one of Dave?That is clearly false.I believed Oogway wouldn't do anything to me

"Give it back to you? You are dreaming!" Over the phone, Lita's voice became fierce as she said, "Reed, be very clear about what you have done! Let me tell you, if I can't get Dave, then I will be doomed together with you!"Her words reminded me of the photos I had sent a few weeks ago.I, who had been concentrated on Judith's matter, forgot about it.I snorted and said, "Lita, you messed up your own private life. It has nothing to do with me!""Nothing to do with you? If it weren't for you, would I be like this? Do you think I don't know you complained to Dave about my private life? Otherwise, how could he have treated me like that?""How did he treat you?" I asked curiously.Could it be that what Dave once said is true?Over the phone, Lita was silent. After a while, she said, "Let me tell you, I won't give your laptop back to you!""Oh."I hung up.Now that Judith had passed away. The ten million dollars in my bank account was no longer reserved for anyone.I could afford to buy an

Chapter 187

Outside, Comfort sorted out the signature book and said to me without even looking up, "Reed Defiant, when my mother was alive, she was the only one that recognized you as a member of the Defiant Family. We didn't refuse to recognize you because of her feelings. Now my mother has passed away. You are no longer a member of the Defiant Family.""Do you think I will care about it? I always knew my grandmother was the only relative I got." After I said that, I took two steps forward. Thinking of something, I walked back and said to her, "I would be here on the day of Grandmother's funeral and it will be the last time you'll see me!"At this moment, Comfort raised her head to look at me with a complicated expression in her eyes.Before she could say anything, I walked away.As soon as I went out, I saw Oogway's car parked with him next to the car.When he saw me, he smiled faintly.As I approached him, I hesitated for a moment and said, "Thank you."Oogway seemed to have noticed my strange

I handed the broken lens and arm to him saying awkwardly, "Sorry. Seeing that the glasses was about to slip down your nose, I planned to take them off safely for you."Oogway lowered his head and checked his glasses. He frowned slightly and said, "This pair of glasses had been with me for several years. I have grown attached to it.""I'm sorry." Hearing his words, I felt even more sorry. I hurriedly added, "How about I order you another similar one?""This pair of glasses was produced several years ago. It surely has been out of stock."When Oogway spoke, his expression was serious, which I rarely saw.I regretted it so much, thinking I shouldn't have helped him take off his glasses. He had comforted me with good intentions but I ended up crushing his glasses under my buttock...When I was struggling in my heart, Oogway suddenly placed his hand on top of my head, rubbed my hair, and said, "If you do order one with me, I will forgive you.""Huh?"I looked up at him blankly."Didn't yo

Dee hesitated for a moment before saying in a low voice, "Trish violated the rule that nobody should use cell phones in the resort.""Using her cell phone? Who did she get in touch with?"Dee shook his head and waved his hand, "I can't tell you anything about that.""Why?"I chased after Dee, only to see him look embarrassed as he said, "Miss Defiant, you have helped me before and I am very grateful for that, which is the reason why I revealed Trish's matter to you. As for other things, I indeed can't tell you anything more.""I see."Hearing his words, I knew what was going on.Who else could it be?I knew what had happened without any further guessing needed. I thanked Dee and went home.Sitting in the small room and looking up at the balloon floating above my head, I seemed to be in a better mood. I turned on the TV and took out my cell phone to browse the news on the Internet.My laptop had been taken away by Lita so I couldn't work at home.I browsed the newsfeed on Facebook an

Chapter 190

The location I pointed out on my cell phone was a small restaurant near the orphanage. In fact, I had no idea if it still operated.In college when I took time to help in the orphanage, I went to eat there a few times and the food was top notched.About a few meters away from the restaurant, we found that the road was blocked with no way of driving through. We had no other way than to park and walk there.To my surprise, the restaurant was still open and the operator was the same one as we walked in.Immediately the operator saw me, he greeted with a smile. "Oh, isn't it Reed? I haven't seen you in years. Where have you been?""Boss, how come you still remember me?" I was a little surprised."Of course I do. You haven't changed much in recent years. I surely can recognize you." The owner of the restaurant said happily and looked at Dave, "Is this your boyfriend? He looks so noble."I hooked up the corner of my lips, "No, he's just my...""I'm her boyfriend."Knowing what I was going t
