The manager asked the lady what was going on.The lady said there was so many customers in the shop just now, when she turned back, she found that the bracelet was gone. She was so scared that she cried as she searched the shop and couldn't find it.Although the lady didn't say that it was me who took it, the fact that the bracelet was found in my bag had explained everything. I still explained to her, "I didn't take this. I don't know how it ended up in my bag."The manager glanced at me and said disdainfully, "Explain it to the police!"It was not until now that I really panicked!'I'm going to see Dave's grandfather with him today. If I get involved with the police because of this matter and get delayed, it is unknown how Dave's grandfather will think of me!' I thought, really scared.The manager asked the security guard to take me to the office on the first floor of the mall and then waited for the police to arrive.I struggled and didn't want to go with them.Lita stood aside an
The next morning, I took the morning off and went to the police station where I was charged with stealing.The answer they gave me was that it was a misunderstanding and that the case was closed so the monitor was not checked.I refused to deal with it this way. My reputation was at stake.With my repeated request as well as the involvement of Dave yesterday, the police dared not neglect me. An officer then headed to the mall with me.We found the manager and requested for the surveillance video from yesterday. The manager immediately agreed only for us to find out that the monitor was broken!The manager then said in an exaggerating tone, "Oh, why is the monitor broken? Get someone to repair it immediately."At that moment, I understood that Lita might have known I would come back to check the surveillance video.Of course, the monitor couldn't be repaired. The so called repairer failed to get it back on after a long 'fix'.I didn't want to give up. After the police left, I went to
This time, I took this matter seriously. I began reading my period calendar and found that it had been more than a month since my last period. Moreover, I didn't take any measures when he made love to me on the wedding night.All of a sudden, a bad feeling arose in my heart.I asked Kim to go to the hospital with me and registered for the Department of Gynecology.When the result came out, my worse fear came to pass. I was pregnant for over 5 weeks."How could this be..." I looked at the result in front of me, feeling extremely complicated.Kim was different. She patted me on the shoulder and laughed, "Good job. Reed, it's said that a man's mood will be different if there is a child."'Never will I love you in my life.'As I stared at the result on the test sheet, Dave's words were reverberating in my ears, making me extremely complicated and sour.I didn't know what to do."Lita Defiant, what a small world."While I was lost in thoughts, Kim who was beside me called out the name of
I didn't know how long I had been sleeping. It wasn't until someone patted me on the shoulder that I woke up and said subconsciously, "I'm sorry, I'm getting to work now.""Puff." As soon as I finished speaking, I heard a man's chuckle next to my ear. When I turned around, I found that someone was standing behind me and he looked a little familiar...Staring blankly at him for a few seconds, I called out, "Haick?" I rubbed my sleepy eyes as I recognized him.He was Haick Grimm, a senior of mine at the same academy when I was in college. He was a well known genius among us. The lecturers spoke about his deeds every day. He was also the person I admired the most when I was in college.It was also him who had introduced me to do the internship here.I got up and asked happily, "What are you doing here?""I want to ask you the same question. Why are you here?" Haick raised his hand and helped me sort out the messy hair on my cheek, smiling gently and beautifully.I was a little embarrasse
Today, I had an appointment with my client at 5 o'clock. At about 4:30 pm, I packed my documents and headed for the entrance.As soon as I came out of the company's door, I saw Haick waving at me in a white sports car. I ran over and he said first, "You are going to see your client, right? Let's go. It happens that I am going the same way. I'll see you off."I knew that he was lying to me but I still got into his car.After getting in the car, I complained to him. "You are the general manager. Why didn't you tell me earlier?""What's the point of telling you?" Haick drove off while adding with a smile at the corner of his mouth, "No matter who I am, you are always my junior sister."His words sounded warm without any sense of distance.Soon, we arrived at the residential quarter where I had agreed to meet my client. I thanked him and got off the car. After watching the car leave, I entered the residential quarter in front of me.The project in my hand was related to the decoration o
After Dave left, I rested on the ground for a long time. Then I sent a message to apologize to Haick before heading upstairs.After I went upstairs, Kim was busy packing up her luggage. She said she was leaving to be trained abroad and would be away for a while.She patted my little belly and teased, "When I come back, you will have become a big bellied woman."I smiled bitterly.I secretly decided that I would leave the City when my belly became somewhat bigger................After Kim left, I hadn't seen Haick for a whole week. I was not sure whether he was angry or not.That week, due to working overtime and serious morning sickness, I was so weak that I had to go to the hospital to have a nutritious injection.After I finished a series of examinations, I went back to the doctors office.As soon as I entered the office, I heard a pregnant woman asking the doctor, "Doctor, how is my child?""My suggestion is that you should take a good rest." The doctor replied.I stood behind and
My reaction probably was beyond his imagination. Dave looked at me inquiringly for a long time and said, "Let's wait until the baby is born."We were both silent all the way.Dave wanted to send me back to his villa but I told the driver to send me back to Kim's address instead.Seeing that the car was about to arrive at Kim's house, I touched my flat belly and couldn't help asking, "Dave, what if I'm pregnant as well?""Abort it!" Dave answered without hesitation. In the end, he added in a cold tone, "You took the medicine last time. Never should you intend to have an illegitimate child to entertain my grandpa."I curled up the corner of my lips and said with a sad smile, "The contraceptive pills won't always be 100% successful."My statement seemed to make Dave nervous. He looked at my belly and asked, "Are you pregnant?""Take a guess." I looked at him with a calm face as I didn't reveal the answer to him.Dave looked at me and did not answer but there wasn't any joy on his face.
Haick didn't say anything when he saw Dave that day but he understood something when he saw Dave and Lita today.He took the initiative to help me out, "I just came back to the City and I didn't bring many clothes with me. I didn't have any friends so, I had to ask my junior sister to help me choose some clothes."I looked at him gratefully."Oh," Lita replied meaningfully and acted like a spoiled child to Dave as she said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean that."Dave just said, "It's okay." But his face didn't look good.After the meal, I was going to leave with Haick. I didn't expect that Dave would suddenly stop me, "Your husband is here, are you going to leave with another man?"Both Lita and I were stunned by his words.She looked at Dave and shouted coyly, "Dave..."Dave ignored her and continued, "I'll ask the driver to send you back."His tone was not up for negotiation.I dared not refuse him.In the end, I had no choice but to take Dave's car alone and head back to the company.By
