The waiter asked, "What kind of soup would you want?"

"Double..." Desmond said.

"All spicy flavor." Kim said.

Desmond looked at Kim and said, "Let's order Double... I can't eat spicy food."

"No, it's my birthday. It's up to me." Kim didn't seem to have any intention of changing her mind.

Helplessly, Desmond had no choice but to agree.

Although Desmond looked like a playboy, he and Kim had a lot of common topics after they sat together.

I sat next to them as if I were a third wheel.

I didn't speak all, I was doing was eating.

A bottle of champagne was quickly emptied.

Originally, Desmond wanted to order beer but Kim directly refused and ordered several bottles of hard alcohol.

I wasn't good at drinking however, Kim seemed to have drunk to her heart's content.

Desmond proposed to go to a bar and Kim agreed immediately!

I tried my best to persuade her but she wouldn't listen. She insisted on pulling me there along with her.

We went to the bar.

Desmond, who was quite generous, ordered m

    Dave looked at me and then at Bleak. Suddenly, his face became gloomy.He came straight up to me and asked impatiently, "Why are you here?""I...""Alright. Go back! I'll find someone to see you off."As I was about to explain, Dave interrupted me.As he spoke, he took out his cell phone from his pocket and said, "Send Reed away."Seeing this scene, Bleak smiled. "Mr. Mitaka, you are indeed so cruel. When she was a beauty, you hugged her in your arms. Now, she has disfigured her face and you kick her off immediately.""No, it's not like that." Dave immediately denied it, "She shouldn't have come to a place like this."As Dave spoke, his expression was cold and indifferent. His attitude even reminded me of the days when I married him on behalf of Lita back then.How come he changed his attitude so quickly?At this time, Dave's driver came up and said he was going to see me off.I wanted to maintain my dignity which was the only thing I had so I said decisively, "Mr. Mitaka, I don't nee

    "Ah""Oh, my! Don't! Baby!""Who is your baby?"Desmond and Kim's voices could be heard inside the room. Of course, I heard the sound of smashing things as well.I pressed the doorbell and in half a second, the door opened.I walked into the room. It was Desmond who opened the door for me. He was wearing trousers and a shirt. The buttons of his shirt were buttoned in the wrong way and his shirt was covered with lipstick marks..."Please come in." When Desmond saw it was me, he quickly made way for me.When I entered the room, I saw Kim on the bed wrapped in a quilt. Her clothes on the ground. Among the clothes, a dark red sweater was torn in pieces. The other clothes were in a mess as well...The messy table and sheets showed how fiercely they had made love last night."I'll go... wait in the bathroom." Desmond looked around. Without any intention to go out, he could only go to the bathroom.Without waiting for Kim to reply, Desmond ran to the bathroom.I handed the clothes to Kim.

    I turned around, intending to leave.Ding!Ding! DingAs soon as I took a step forward, the cell phone in my pocket rang. As expected, it was Bleak's call.I hesitated for a moment and picked it up."Hello, Miss Defiant, did you see that? How do you feel?" Bleak's frivolous voice floated out from the cell phone.I frowned slightly and said, "Mr. Bleak, if you intend to make me give up on Dave, then I'll tell you that I have given up on him. You don't have to exert so many efforts."To be honest, I was somewhat confused about why Bleak was doing this. If he wanted to use me to irritate Dave, then he was doomed to fail.Could it be that he wanted me to give up on Dave? If yes, what was his purpose?"Well, Miss Defiant, why are you angry? See, I just let you see who Dave truly is. He abandoned you last night and today, he directly turns to his childhood sweetheart. Who does he take you for? You probably are nothing to him."Bleak said with a smile in his voice..."Well, I know. Thank yo

    "Miss Defiant?"When I looked up at them unexpectedly, Teresa saw me.She called out to me.Dave looked at me as well and moved slightly. He looked so terribly indifferent, as if he were a little angry.For a moment, I was at a loss.The two of them walked up to me and Teresa asked me naturally, "Miss Defiant, are you here to watch a movie as well?""Yeah..." I raised the movie ticket in embarrassment and forced a smile, "I'm bored and I'm not at work so I came here to watch a movie...""Oh." Teresa stared at the movie ticket in my hands, "Miss Defiant, this is a cartoon film. I didn't expect you to be so childlike.""For the ones engaged in design, we have to understand everything a little." I explained.Hearing my words, Teresa said with a smile, "Miss Defiant, have you ever seen this movie named Our Love? We are booking the entire hall for it. You can come watch this movie with us.""I booked the entire hall for you."Dave, who was on the side, snapped before I could speak.His wor

    After trying to control my emotions in success, I managed to say, "Congratulations!""Miss Defiant, I know you are sad. I'm sorry." Teresa took out a piece of paper and handed it to me, "I have known Dave for so many years. In fact, we are more like family members but our family asked us to unite through marriage. We can't go against them.""Well, I know, it doesn't matter.""I'm sorry." Teresa looked at me apologetically.I clutched the invitation card tightly in my hand but I didn't even have the courage to open it. I couldn't help but ask, "Miss Teresa, despite your relationship with Dave, don't you mind if I exist?""Me?" Teresa paused for a moment and smiled. "It's a lie if I say that I don't mind, after all, I surely will mind that my husband has another woman in his heart.""Don't worry, he doesn't have me in his heart." I said sourly."How could it be? You've been together for so long. You are surely in his heart." Teresa lowered her eyes and took a sip of coffee in front of

    I woke up in an instant and looked at the caller ID on my cell phone to confirm that it was him. Then I said, "Da... Dave.""Well, don't you have something to say to me? Go ahead."Dave's voice was faint and a little cold.I didn't know how he was feeling now.Was he agitated? Or was he happy?However, all of these were no longer important to me.I gripped the cell phone tightly and said firmly, "Let's meet for the last time." Dave was silent over the phone.After a while...I finally heard his hoarse voice, "Okay. Come to my office at 10 a.m. tomorrow.""Your office?"After all, his office was a place for getting business done. It turned out that in Dave's eyes, it was an official business for him to meet me.I could hardly accept such a reality. Even so, what could I do?I agreed, "Okay, I'll be there on time tomorrow."The next morning, Kim went out, I got up to put on makeup.I probably spent the longest time ever doing makeup this time. I covered the scars on my face tightly an

    I pinched my nails into my flesh and tried to hold myself back for a while before walking to his table, "Dave Mitaka, tell me now that you're telling the truth, if any word from you is false, you will die a terrible death!"All in all, I was unwilling to accept reality."Well, I swear." Dave looked up and at me calmly, "If I tell a lie, I'll be struck by lightning and die a terrible death.""Dave Mitaka, Dave Mitaka, why are you so cruel? Is lying to me something so interesting to you?" Tears finally fell down uncontrollably. I looked at him and said, "What's more frightening is that you are a good actor. You deceived me with ease and fooled me around. I trusted you so much that I was willing to be sincere to you!"In the past, I always felt that I didn't like to cry but at this very moment, I realized that when I got bullied in my childhood, I would only suffer physical pain. Right now, my heart ached and I was truly in pain!!My tears fell on the documents one by one in front of Da

    Hanging up the phone, I sat up from the bed and my unorganized lower body reminded me that what had happened was indeed real.I saw a set of new clothes on the sofa.Dave was always like this. Every time, he would prepare everything for me.It probably would be the last time.I changed my clothes and went out, only to find Dave hadn't left. Standing in front of a big French window, he was smoking a cigarette.I lowered my head, only to find cigarette butts had been scattered around his feet.There seemed to be more than 20 cigarette butts in total.Could it be that he had been standing here and smoking all this time?I looked at his sharp side profile, which seemed to have been carved by a knife and there seemed to be strong sadness in his deep eyes.As the lights of the opposite building which were on shone through the glass, a layer of light seemed to be lining his body.He looked so beautiful.Dave was good looking. In my eyes, no other man in the world probably could be better loo

    When we arrived at the cocktail party, it was already after six o'clock.It was the time of sunset. The sun was hanging in the west, and its light was not very intensive.From a distance, I could see that everyone, except for us, were already there.Bryan and Aurelia piled up a sand castle on the beach, Scarlett was accompanying them on the side.Kim and Desmond were sitting together, and the two of them were talking and smiling.Marie and Jerrold stood on the other side beside the children.As soon as we arrived, everyone came over, except for Bryan and Aurelia.Scarlett was the first one to come running."Mr. Mitaka!" She went up to Dave and said excitedly, "This is the first time I have been so close to a living Mr. Mitaka. Alas, he's so handsome. I can't regret my whole life even if I just take a look at him.""Scarlett." Marie called her loudly.Scarlett immediately changed her words. "Mr. Mitaka and our Goddess Alina standing together. They are really a perfect match between a t

    I called Marie.She and her husband were planning to take Bryan to walk around the island. Knowing what I told them, they immediately said, "You can take Bryan to the swimming boundless pool. We can take care of him, and the two children can play together with no problem.""This... "I was a little embarrassed.Marie said with a smile on the other side of the phone, "You are more than welcome. Go enjoy your couple's world."Hanging up the phone, I brought Bryan to the swimming pool. Aurelia was playing in the pool in a swim ring.Marie and her husband were lying on the chair.Seeing us coming over, both of them got up.At the sight of Aurelia, Bryan grabbed a swim ring aside, and also jumped into the swimming pool.Marie and her husband came over, and I said quickly, "Marie, Mr. Jerrold, I count on you to take care of Bryan."On the way to the island, Marie had introduced her husband officially to me.Her husband's name was Jerrold. He was the vice president of a new media company in

    He sat on the bed and held my hand, and his face was gloomy. "I won't interrupt you if you don't allow me to disturb your work. But the precondition must be that you won't get sick.""I'm sorry, I was just...""Did you just try to calm yourself down using your job to avoid the comments on Internet?" Dave asked.I nodded and asked after thinking for a moment, "How is it going on the Internet? Is it better?""Yes, but you'd better read less of that and read more books." Dave rubbed my hair. "Do you want to go to the island? Marie said that you can be on holidays these days, I can take you there. You can ask your friends to go together, and we can also take Bryan with us.""Really?"I remembered that Kim had told me she really wanted to go there."Well, I had a wedding with Teresa there before. If you mind, I can reserve another island from the Maldives...""No, I don't mind. It's a good place."What's more, reserving another island would cost more money.That island was very good. I did

    "Is there anything else?""That is.. We just wanted to know why Teresa would go there. Did you ask her out? And the car accident...""I didn't ask her out. I had a project there. I thought my partner would be there. I was about to take a taxi back after my partner left. I didn't expect to meet Teresa." Since Finn asked, I explained at once. "She insisted on treating me to coffee in the middle of nowhere. I didn't agree. As a result, there came a car behind. She pulled me and fell down, and then she was hit by the car."I said in one breath.Finn, who was on the other side of the phone, seemed to be stunned. "So...""So, if there is any information on the Internet saying that I pushed her, I can only prove the facts by checking the nearby CCTV." I said, and added, "Also, I am not interested in whether you are my biological father or not. Naturally, I will not test DNA with you. If Teresa is awake, please tell her that she doesn't have to be wary of me."Finn didn't expect that I would

    The staff of the ambulance naturally sent Teresa to Way Hospital.After all, people from the upper class in all thought highly of it.Because of what happened previously, I got used to wearing a mask and sunglasses outside.Wearing sunglasses, I followed the doctor into the emergency room and saw that Teresa was directly wheeled inside.A nurse asked me to pay the bill for Teresa. And I did as she said.After everything was done, I sat alone in the corridor, feeling helpless.I didn't want to accomplish anything. I just wanted to be a good designer, do my job well, and be with Bryan until he grew up.As for the rest, I indeed didn't want them.But why did others get me involved in such chaos over and over again?What on earth did I do wrong?What Oogway had exposed last time quieted down a little. And now this thing had happened. I indeed didn't know what would happen to me next."Alina." I heard Dave's voice ringing above my head.Without looking up, I said simply, "I was set up. The

    At this moment, Kelvin finally came out of the room. Looking at us, he frowned and asked, "What's going on? As I took a nap, how come you made a scene like this?""Grandfather Kelvin! This woman beat my mother!" Bryan ran to the front of Kelvin at once.Kelvin asked, "What's the matter?"At this time, the servant, who had been chased by Jessica just now, said, "I... I took a leave and went home a few days ago. After arriving here today, I saw a doll and thought that someone had placed them here by accident..."Speaking of the doll, Kelvin understood everything and asked, "Where is the doll?""In... In Young Master Bryan's room." The servant seemed to realize something and immediately said, "I am going to fetch it now!"As soon as the servant left, Kelvin went over and said to Jessica, "The servant wasn't sensible enough. She will bring the doll to you later."However, at this time, hearing his words, Jessica didn't respond. Instead, she looked at me and said briefly, "My daughter."Ke

    Jamin moved his lips slightly, "I am ill." He knew why Bryan called him like this."Really? Then you have to do as the doctor says carefully. Be good. Get an injection and take your medicine. You'll be fine soon!"Bryan, who was young, had no idea that getting sick would be divided into several kinds of situations.He thought that Jamin was the same as him and that Jamin got a cold and a fever. In that case, Jamin could be cured by taking medicine and getting injections.Hearing his words, Jamin couldn't help laughing more brightly. And he said, "Well, okay. Great grandpa surely will do as the doctor says.""Okay." Bryan nodded, stretched out his hand, and patted Jamin's hand, saying, "Then, Grandfather, after you recover, I'll go have fun with you again."."Okay, okay." Jamin nodded slightly.As he spoke, his blurry eyes were moistened. He looked up at us after a long while and said, "Dave, Alina.""Grandpa."Dave approached Jamin. And I stood there.Seeing Jamin like this, to tell t

    I took Bryan with me and went to the Hospital.Upon arriving at the hospital, I saw a cordon set up outside the hospital. And the security guards were guarding there.There were several commercial vehicles parked on the side. Apparently, they were reporters' cars.Before I got out of the car, I put on my sunglasses and a mask. Putting a cap on Bryan's head, I wrapped his neck with a scarf.As soon as the car stopped, I rushed into the hospital with Bryan in my arms.At this time, Jamin was already in ICU.After entering ICU, we saw Anita and Jamie both there and Oogway was nowhere to be seen.In fact, before I came here, I knew that he wouldn't be here. The reason why Jamin fell ill now was highly likely because of the revelation in the news.The news made Jamin's scandal known to the public. He, who was old, naturally couldn't stand this kind of stimulation.As soon as Bryan and I came over, Anita walked over directly, "How come you are so shameless as to come over here?""Anita." Ja

    In the revelation, Oogway described his biological mother as someone single all over her life to guarding her love. And Jamin was an irresponsible Mr. Wrong.In fact, the revelation had nothing to do with me. If it did, it would be that back then, Oogway's mother was also a young girl in her twenties.After the fourth breaking news was released, the FB account that published these revelations announced that he would stop revealing more breaking news for the time being.Over the past four days, there had been four breaking news, making it like a carnival for reporters and netizens.Each social platform scaled up its server for this reason.Everyone loved to know the private life of a wealthy family. And some unpresentable stuff was popular as well.Sure enough, the four breaking news made the Newman Family, the Michaelson Family, and the Mitaka Family all in a mess.I calmed myself down, only to find that I seemed to have been kept out of the affair.These things didn't have much impac
