The loud banging on the door, accompanied by Grainne's screams, echoed from upstairs.
"Joyle, old lady, open the door, let me go!"
Outside the door, her stepmother, Grainne, had an annoyed expression on her face, but still pretended to advise softly: "Grainne, your brother is now being forced to the point of being unable to return home, you can't go home. agree to help for once?"
Grainne knew well the character of her stepmother, so she did not fall for the trick, and immediately replied indignantly: "Don't dream! Your son has become an irreparable bastard, don't try to drag me along to die!"
"You bastard, just like your shameless biological mother, just keep your mouth shut, if you don't agree, don't come out!"
Joyle cursed for a while and then walked downstairs, ignoring the screams of the person locked inside.
Grainne heard her stepmother's footsteps leaving, then angrily kicked on the door and then sat down on the ground, saying nothing more, the tears that had been suppressed for a long time were now pouring out.
From a young age, she had to live under the pressure of her stepmother, after her father died of an illness, her stepmother became even more domineering, now because she wants to help her beloved son pay off his debts, he forces her to marrying a man old enough to be his father, what a dream!
Such a shameless request, Grainne really would rather die than agree.
But she did not expect, this time Joyle was really cruel, locking her up for two days and two nights without releasing her, nor giving her any food or drink.
Grainne sat helplessly against the wall, her once plump lips were now dry and cracked, she looked up at the vent in her head, this was her only chance to escape, even if she fell to her death, she could not. so that the mother and daughter can be like that.
She had to run away, to find her childhood boyfriend Brian, never to return to this place called home again.
It was also dark, the house was very quiet, perhaps the stepmother was already asleep.
Clinging to the ten remaining coins in his pocket, Grainne climbed up the roof vent, tried to push open the rusted window, and found a few scraps of used cloth in the dusty room full of furniture. miscellaneous, tied together to form a rope and then used it to swing out the window, sneaking out the back door.
The feeling of touching the ground with her feet made her breathe a sigh of relief, only then did she realize that her hands were in pain, she didn't know when her hands were torn by the iron bar and the window glass, and fresh blood dripped down. Each drop.
Grainne was in so much pain that she gritted her teeth, stretched out her hands, and, imitating the manner her brother in debt normally did to her, pointed his middle finger at the window of his stepmother's dimly lit room and cursed: Joyle, one day the lady will teach you a lesson!"
After saying that, she didn't dare to stay long, ran out to Brian, waved to catch a taxi.
Taxi fare cost her all the money in her pocket.
But looking up to see the 20th floor window still lit, knowing Brian was still not asleep, Grainne felt full of hope and a sweetness of love.
She was locked upstairs, her phone was also taken, Brian has not been able to contact her for a few days, so he must be so worried that he can't sleep.
Thinking of this, Grainne hurriedly entered the elevator.
She wanted to tell Brian about what had happened the past two days.
Tell him how much she loves him.
Tell him, from now on, she will only have you...
A tinkling sound sounded, reaching the 20th floor, Grainne walked to Brian's door, the door was unlocked, dim light emanating from inside the house.
The door was only slightly closed, a slight push was opened, Grainne suddenly saw a pair of yellow high-heeled shoes near the door, startled in her heart, these... were not her shoes.
Trying to convince herself not to overthink, Grainne slowly walked into the living room and then into the bedroom.
But a shady sound coming from the bedroom told her that what she feared had come true.
"Brother Brian, you take it easy, um... um..."
Excited cries hit Grainne's ears, breaking her heart even more.
She stood motionless in front of the door, feeling her head buzzing, her empty stomach suddenly constricting, making her nauseous.
"Ah... Brian is so ugly... ah, your childhood girlfriend still won't let you touch her?"
"Um..." It was Brian's voice: "Honey, why mention her? She's too dry, she said she would only let me on the wedding night, not as attractive as you, ah..."
That last sound did not know where to touch the other girl, but made her squeal in excitement.
That conversation was like a spark that ignited the dynamite in Grainne's heart, she angrily pushed open the door and stormed into the room.
The scene of sex in the room met her eyes, the two naked bodies entwined on the bed made Grainne's spirit agitated, making her heart broken, tears immediately flowed.
The two people on the bed were startled by Grainne's sudden appearance, panicking in the blankets, covering their bodies.
"Grainne..., why did you come here? My mother said I went out with my classmates." Brian hugged the blanket and looked at his girlfriend in surprise and panic.
"When I go out, do you have fat cats at home?" Grainne choked, trying to hold back her tears, furious.
Grainne clenched her fist, just wanted to rush to beat the other couple to death.
Then she really did.
Grainne took off her dirty running shoes, grabbed one, and threw it straight at Brian's head, right in the heart!
"Hey da!" Brian was hit in the head, screaming in agony.
"Hey, why did you hit him?" The girl curled up in the blanket immediately stepped out to protect Brian, already knowing the situation and deliberately patting his head.
Grainne looked at the girl's messy blonde hair and smeared makeup, and became even more angry: "That red-hoofed chicken, I not only hit him, but I also hit you!"
Finally, she took the remaining shoe and threw it at the other girl.
The throw didn't hit, but it was enough to make the girl jump up and shout at Grainne: "A fierce woman like you, who would want? Both rural and lowly, no wonder her man is looking for another girl!" With that, she glared at Grainne.
Grainne got angry and rushed over to give her a few slaps, but was stopped by Brian: "Grainne! Don't fight anymore, just right, don't overdo it!"
"Am I too much?" Grainne pushed Brian's hand away, the sight of them entwining together just now made her feel so disgusting, now she was scolded, making her extremely angry, she pointed at Brian's face: "You sneaked me to have an affair. say I'm too much? Brian, do you still have any shame?" Brother..."
"Enough!" Brian looked at Grainne, saw that she was a fierce woman who did not know why, how could she compare to the lovely and gentle mistress next to her? He annoyedly interrupted her: "We've known each other for many years, but you won't let me touch one of your fingers, saying it's for the wedding night, I'll tell you the truth, I'm still playing. It's not enough, I don't want to marry you at all, if you still want to be with me, you have to show some sincerity, dedicate yourself to me, wait a few more years, after I have had enough, it will be real. take her."
Grainne really couldn't believe the shameless words that came out of the mouth of the first love boyfriend she loved so deeply!
Tears finally flowed out without being able to hold back, she froze for a moment and then stepped forward, slapping the man in the face.
"Brian, I'm blind!"
Grainne gritted her teeth and finished speaking, walking out barefoot, the cold floor not colder than her heart.
How she left Brian's house, she didn't remember, how far she went, where she went, she didn't know.
Because she wanted to be with Brian, she gave up on going to college far away, even though her achievements were very good, she was still willing to stay at a third-class school, the purpose was because she wanted to go to college with him for four years, two who had promised to get married after graduation, but now after graduating, she...
Now everything is so ridiculous, so stupid, so stupid!
It suddenly rained, Grainne wanted to laugh, laughing at herself too stupid, but when her mouth was raised, tears flowed again.
She just wandered about in the night, suddenly a force hit her, and Grainne couldn't stand, and fell to the ground.
"Are you blind..." Grainne was in pain, trying to get up to scold the person who hit her, but before she could finish her sentence, she suddenly saw something wrong with the person in front of her.
It was a tall handsome man, wearing a pair of tailored black trousers that accentuated his long legs, and a white shirt that was only half buttoned up, revealing his toned chest. jacket was taken off and draped over his arm, his face contorted, red from drunkenness, looking very uncomfortable.
Carwyn Levi was at a party, suddenly felt dizzy, so she wanted to go out for a walk, unexpectedly even more dizzy, temporarily unable to distinguish the direction, so the collision happened, and was about to say sorry.
"Hey, bumping into someone without apologizing? Do you know politeness?" Grainne's anger and resentment now had a place to vent.
"Shut up." Carwyn Levi said indignantly that no one had ever dared to say this to him before.
He raised his head to look at the brash man standing in front of him.
But this strange feeling made him vague, not seeing the girl in front of him clearly, only seeing her lovely lips moving continuously, emitting a seductive voice.
Grainne saw this man keep staring at her and angrily waved her hand in front of him, "I'm talking to you, can you hear me?"
Waves of heat rose in Carwyn Levi's body, the sight before him made him more uncomfortable, his black eyes seemed to burn.
"You're too noisy."
After saying that, Carwyn Levi did not hesitate, reached out and grabbed the chattering girl in front of him, hugged him tightly, savoring the sweetness of her lips.
Um...
Grainne didn't have time to react, an overwhelming force pressed against her face, clamping down on her lips.
Her first kiss...
At the VIP room on the rooftop of Hoa Dien Hotel, C city.
The yellow light in the room is very soft and warm, on the circular bed in the middle of the room, there are two people entwined, using their bodies to write a love story.
"Brian... Don't leave me... Don't go..."
"Brian, why are you doing this to me? I hate you!"
"Um... I love you, Brian."
The girl on the bed spoke vaguely from time to time, hugged the boy tightly, her body constantly moving.
The boy's normal sense of reason and cold seriousness are gone, now he just wants to let himself into every corner of the flower garden deep inside the girl, enjoying the pleasure of each wave. surge.
A night of debauchery.
Blinding light filtered in through the window curtains, Grainne struggled to open her eyes to adjust to the light, rubbed her heavy head and looked at her surroundings, a large glass window covered with curtains. The color of coffee, the furniture in the room is simple but lavish, looks very much like a hotel room, like an apartment of a rich person.
Where are you?
Grainne struggled to sit up, feeling like she'd just come back from a fight, her whole body aching.
She carefully studied the unfamiliar scene before her, trying to remember what had happened yesterday.
She remembers after escaping the house, she went to Brian's house, then saw...
The scene of the affair was still touching before her eyes, thinking about it now made Grainne even more painful, if it was only a dream, that would be great!
After she left Brian's house, the whole time Brian was confused, did not know where he was going, then seemed to have hit someone...
Not true, was hit by someone!
Later...
"Ah... My first kiss!"
Grainne involuntarily brought her hand to her lips.
Having encountered a pervert, suddenly being kissed, Grainne was stunned, her weak body was both hungry and tired, and she could not take it anymore, only seeing darkness in front of her eyes and then fainting.
Then what after that?
Grainne shook her head, wanting to remember what happened after that, but no matter how hard she tried, she was left unimpressed.
She angrily sat up, suddenly seeing a bright red stain on the pure white bed sheet, she was startled!
That's when I realized something was wrong!
Reason and consciousness both returned, clothes were scattered everywhere and the red bloodstain on the bed clearly recounted the events of last night.
She felt as if the blood in her entire body had frozen solid.
Grainne crawled to the ground beside the bed, bowed low, and then frantically hurried to pick up her clothes and put them on, as if to wipe away what had happened last night.
"Regards!"
She was just getting dressed and was about to leave when the doorbell rang.
Grainne panicked, what to do? Now I can't run anymore if I want to run.
People at the door waited for a long time, but no one came to open the door, so they took out their cards and swiped.
Grainne looked nervously at the person entering, who was dressed in a neat uniform, a hotel employee.
"Ma'am, you're awake, this is left by the guest who came with you." The young waiter spoke very politely, but his eyes could not hide the sarcasm, and after saying that, he held out a yellow bank card.
"What is this?" Grainne was bewildered, not understanding at all.
"He said this is your reward, for yesterday."
Remuneration? Remuneration?
What does that damn bastard see you as?
"I don't need it, go away!"
"But he said we absolutely had to deliver it to you."
"I told you no need, get out of here!" Grainne was furious and sent the employee away.
"Stop!"
But when the panicky employee was about to turn around and leave, Grainne called him back.
Grainne pulled everything out of her pocket, finding only one coin left over from yesterday's taxi ride.
She gave the coin to the waiter and said: "Give this to that person too, say this is the remuneration I paid him yesterday."
Then, despite the bewildered look on the employee's face, Grainne walked out of the room containing her bleak past.
On the rooftop of JK Corporation located in the center of Y city, CEO Carwyn Levi is sitting at a beautiful brown desk looking at documents, his handsome and determined face is very leisurely, sometimes holding a pen. signed, seems very familiar with these things.
Suddenly the door to the room opened and Simon entered.
Being disturbed suddenly like this, Carwyn Levi showed his discomfort, his eyes turned cold, his brows furrowed, but he didn't pay attention to the person who had just entered and continued to look at the documents.
Simon saw that Carwyn Levi didn't care about him, and pretended to lament: "Oh, Emperor Moc is so busy, I have to wait!"
After that, he sat down in the swivel chair opposite.
Carwyn Levi remained emotionless, didn't raise her head to look up, having known each other for so many years, she didn't need to look to know what this little Simon was trying to do.
Carwyn Levi has always been famous as a cold-faced general, ordinary people are afraid of his extreme cold aura, only his best friend since childhood, Simon, dares to be casual in front of him.
Because Simon's father is also a founding senator of the JK corporation, when he was young, he and Carwyn Levi's father took over this country, extremely loyal, made countless merits, is one of the few elders that Carwyn Levi respected.
"What is up?"
Simon thought he had attracted the attention of the great young master Carwyn Levi, so he was a little proud.
He pulled a yellow bank card and a coin from his pocket and placed it on the desk in front of Carwyn Levi.
Carwyn Levi recognized the bank card, which was the same thing he had asked Simon this morning to give to the girl he had spent the night with, now why take it back?
Simon noticed Carwyn Levi's questioning look and burst out laughing: "Interesting? They'll pay you back, hey, plus a dime for bed expenses." As he spoke, he pointed to the silver coin that was shining brightly on the table.
Carwyn Levi was startled, his cold face showing inexplicable anger mixed with a hint of amusing curiosity.
Simon saw the rare expression on the young master Carwyn Levi's face and hurriedly revealed his many stories.
"It's also strange, I've always been not close to beautiful women, why suddenly changed to want to enjoy it?"
Simon knows this friend is not like him, he likes to go on a rampage, and the flags fly, but Carwyn Levi the young master, although he has everything in his hand, does not know any girlfriend.
Although he had been in love once a few years ago, but only briefly, that girl ran abroad to cut ties with Carwyn Levi, Simon thought Carwyn Levi would wait for that girl for the rest of her life, who knew this friend last night. Think again, willing to spend the night with another girl.
Curiosity rose in Simon's heart.
Carwyn Levi coldly smashed that curiosity: "When you're done, get out."
Looking at Carwyn Levi's frozen face, which gradually lowered his temperature, Simon did not dare to ask any more questions, so he tried to control many things in his heart and hurriedly walked out of the president's room.
Carwyn Levi put down the pen, and picked up the coin, remembering what had happened last night.
Yesterday, he had a business trip in C city, in the evening he went to meet his partner company and attended a wine party.
After drinking for a while, he suddenly felt dizzy, his whole body was hot, and extremely uncomfortable, so he went out to breathe fresh air.
Who would have thought that breathing air would be useless, on the contrary, it would make people hotter, this was not the feeling of being drunk, Carwyn Levi realized at that time, but it was too late, by then he needed to find it. someone to help him release this feeling.
Then he met the girl.
Carwyn Levi closed her eyes as if sensing that sweet scent still beside her.
That girl...
That night due to the effect of the drug, he couldn't see her face clearly, only the red streak on the bed after the job was done was a strong impact on his frozen heart.
When he woke up in the morning, Carwyn Levi saw a girl sleeping with her back to him, then he remembered the excitement of last night, immediately got up to take a shower, then left, returned to Y city, before leaving. had left a bank card with an amount large enough to make all money-loving girls fall in love.
Who would have thought it would end up like this.
Carwyn Levi regained his composure, put the card back in his desk drawer and looked at the other coin, hesitated for a moment, then took it and put it in his pocket.
...
Five years later.
At an office building in downtown Y, the scene was busy.
The staff here are all busy doing their jobs, sometimes a few people come in and out.
At a corner of the desk next to the window, the sound of typing on the keyboard resounded.
Grainne sat there, wearing a fitted blue business dress that hugged her neat and pretty body.
Busy all day, almost time to leave work, Grainne glanced at the time and then pulled out her phone and sent a voice message: "Honey, no overtime today, don't fall asleep because of waiting."
After saying that, she happily packed up her things and prepared to leave.
Suddenly, she saw her director swinging his fat belly and came over, and immediately felt depressed.
It's not! Again?
Grainne was startled, her fingers about to shut down trembled slightly, then pressed the restart button.
That fear has not passed, the director has announced the bad news: "Tonight everyone has to work overtime! Let's try to double this month's achievement!"
After saying that, he ignored the bored expressions of the employees behind him, and went straight to the office.
Grainne looked at the computer screen that had just turned back on, feeling both annoyed and frustrated.
Oh...
Since joining this company three years ago, overtime has become Grainne's daily routine, but most importantly, there is no money for overtime.
It's over, for life's sake, she has to work hard, luckily with excellent results, the director also wants to promote her, who would have thought that once the director invited her to have a meal, she refused, the promotion news also disappeared.
Grainne felt a bit down, and opened her phone to see, the voice message earlier was answered, it was an emoji of a happy dancing person.
Looking at the icon, Grainne also knew how happy the person was.
She sighed softly and sent another voice message saying she had to work overtime.
Moments later, the person on the other end sent a sullen-looking human emoji.
Grainne was heartbroken to see it, but she couldn't help opening the working document.
Working overtime until almost ten, Grainne felt uneasy all the time, remembering that moody emoji.
She looked into the director's room and then decided to get up and knock on the door.
"Director, I would like to ask when will the decision be made?"
"Little Grainne, don't be impatient, your achievements are visible to everyone, when the time comes, it will be decided by nature." The director leisurely drank tea, drawing up a vision for Grainne.
"Director, I've been at the company for a few years now, in my work, I find myself trying very hard, if I don't get the promotion and development space commensurate with it, I have to find another place to establish myself. "
"Hey hey..." The director suddenly changed his face, cleared his throat, stood up and circled behind Grainne, his big, rough hand unintentionally patting her round butt. "Grainne, in this world, it's not easy for women to compete at work, but there's still a way to see if you understand."
Grainne jumped, goosebumps all over her body, didn't expect him to have this idea.
She waved her hand and slapped hard, with a bang, the director was slapped and his eyes flashed.
"Old goat, dare to play tricks on me, disgusting!"
The director's glasses were disfigured by Grainne, who rubbed his face and angrily shouted: "I have taken you seriously, Grainne, don't invite or drink again, be careful I will make you Go away empty-handed!"
"Who is afraid of whom? Do you believe I'm going to come out now and tell everyone you molested me?"
Finished, Grainne ran her hands through her messy hair, then unbuttoned her shirt, looking as if she had just been bullied very badly, and then shouted: "Fuck him, the director wants to..."
As she said that, she ran out of the office.
It's beneficial indeed!
The director, who had always acted hypocritically, could not accept this, afraid that the mask he had worn for so many years would be ripped off, immediately pulled Grainne's hand and went into the water.
"Oh my god, don't scream, don't scream! Tell me, what do you want in the end?"
He thought she would use this trick to force him to make her the head of the department.
But unexpectedly, I heard Grainne say: "I want to quit my job, I will send the application tomorrow, you will approve it and return Simon in full, not less than a dime."
Just that?
The director was a bit surprised, but then nodded immediately, he didn't like keeping a girl with a strong personality who couldn't see her superior's face like this.
Having received the answer, Grainne immediately left the company, but did not return home, but stopped at a kindergarten near her home.
Kindergarten does not echo the laughter of children during the day but is extremely quiet.
"I'm here, the boy waited for me until he fell asleep."
The kindergarten teacher was used to this mother coming very late every day to pick up her children, gently leading Grainne into the children's bedroom.
Grainne entered the room with many beds, but still very well, approached her son's bed, lovingly looked at the boy sleeping on the bed with his phone still in his hand, she gently stroked her loose hair. in front of him and picked him up, said hello to the teacher and went home.
In the evening, in an apartment building, the oven in the kitchen was cooking noodles, Grainne turned off the stove and carried the noodles to the living room.
After overtime, her stomach was raging, when she was preparing to eat, suddenly heard a noise in her son's room, immediately got up and went in to see.
"Mommy..."
On the bed, a lovely boy with melon hair was sitting cross-legged, rubbing his eyes with his beautiful little white finger.
Grainne sat down by the bed, adjusted her son's slightly wrinkled mischievous sponge pajamas, and asked softly, "Honey, Harry, why are you awake?"
"Mom, Harry has a nightmare, because today my friends at school laughed at me, saying I don't have a dad, you didn't come to pick me up, we don't need me."
Harry was still half-asleep, but his sleepy face was still filled with frustration, his pretty mouth was pouting, his eyebrows were furrowed, and his big eyes were starting to well up with tears.
Grainne felt bitter in her heart, she hugged her son and gently kissed his cheek to comfort him.
Harry has always lacked a sense of security since he was a child, because he had to work overtime, so Grainne was always very late to pick him up every day, gradually making him feel like he would be abandoned.
"Harry, don't listen to people talking nonsense, you're my baby, I'll never leave you." Grainne heartbrokenly hugged her son to comfort him, "Tomorrow I don't need to work overtime anymore, I will stay with you all day, okay?"
"Really mom?" The frustrated look on Harry's face immediately disappeared, he jumped on the bed with joy, "Yeah yeah!"
Grainne also laughed, still a child after all, in the blink of an eye can be happy again, the frustration just now has disappeared and is nowhere to be seen.
I don't know if the frustration is caused by this boy because he wanted to be with his mother but deliberately made it.
Grainne suddenly felt very happy in her heart, did she give birth to a treasure?
After leaving her job, Grainne comfortably stayed with Harry for a few days, but the money left in her bank account forced her to immediately look for a new job.
While looking at the recruitment information of several companies, Grainne suddenly noticed the fashion design company Gloria of Thinh The Carwyn LeviThien Group.
This company is not only famous in the country but also has a great position in the international arena.
On the day of the interview, Grainne first took Harry to kindergarten, then went home to change into his most expensive business suit.
After carefully applying makeup, Grainne took a taxi to the interviewing company.
I don't know what happened to this driver, but he kept looking at her through the rearview mirror.
So the road that should have taken only twenty minutes, this driver ran for more than half an hour and still had not arrived.
Grainne impatiently urged, the driver then withdrew his gaze and accelerated the car.
Finally reached the building.
Grainne clapped in high heels and sprinted toward the building when suddenly the phone rang.
She ran and pulled out her phone, seeing that it was the teacher at the school calling.
"Sister Grainne, come here quickly, Grainne, your Harry has a high fever and is hospitalized!"
"Why is that? When I took him to school this morning, he was fine." Grainne stopped short, almost banging her face against the building's revolving door, a panicked expression on her face.
"Yesterday one of the children caught a cold, which must have passed it on to Harry."
"What? Which hospital are you in?"
"Hospital A."
"I'll be right over."
Without thinking much, Grainne turned around and ran, then suddenly realized that she couldn't run to the hospital like this, so she immediately took a taxi.
Arriving at the hospital, after searching for a while, she finally found her son Harry receiving fluids on his hospital bed.
The boy lay tired, completely lifeless as usual, his big and flexible eyes now seemed to be covered by a mist, and his grimace kept looking at the door of the ward.
It was only when Grainne appeared at the door that his face flushed red from fever broke into a smile.
"Mommy."
Harry reached out to Grainne for a hug.
Grainne felt her heart tighten and rushed over.
"Mom, I was injected just now, I didn't cry at all!" Harry raised his head to show off his victory.
"You're so brave, darling." Seeing that his son was receiving intravenous fluids, not convenient to hug him, Grainne just sat him on her lap and kissed him on the forehead.
The teacher who took Harry to the hospital and sat there, seeing the emotional scene between mother and daughter, couldn't help but sigh.
Not an ordinary woman.
At such a young age, she is a single mother, raising her son alone in a foreign land, her career and family have to be taken care of, and an outsider like a teacher can't help but feel heartbroken.
"Sister Grainne, don't worry too much, the doctor said it's nothing serious, just a fever due to the common cold, in the hospital for a few days of intravenous fluids and you will be fine."
"Yeah, that's great, Miss Ame, thank you." Grainne stood up and bowed to Teacher Ame.
Teacher Ame hastily helped her up, constantly saying it was okay.
Grainne glanced at her watch, there were only 15 minutes left until the interview time, turned to look at Harry in a much better mood, and a little hesitantly said to Teacher Ame: "Miss Ame, can you trouble me? take care of Harry a little? I have an important interview today, it's almost time, if I don't go, it won't be in time."
"It's okay, you go." Teacher Ame immediately agreed.
Grainne immediately thanked him and walked over to the hospital bed, apologetically looking at her son's depressed spirit, and said softly: "Harry, I'm sorry, I'll come back to play with you soon, okay?"
"Yes." The boy raised his head, even though he didn't want to leave his mother, but finally understood the point of nodding, "Mom go quickly, Harry knows mom is going to earn money to buy medicine for Harry, Harry will be fine."
As he spoke, he extended his white hand and waved it.
"My son is so good!"
Grainne kissed Harry on the forehead and ran to the interview.
It won't be soon, it won't be soon...
Grainne was extremely impatient in her heart and rushed out of the hospital gate at the fastest speed.
When she was about to reach the hospital gate, she pulled out her resume and looked down at her watch, only 12 minutes left.
There was a thud, and Grainne only felt herself bumping into a very tall person, her resume falling and flying everywhere.
"Unlucky, so unlucky!"
It was true that the faster it was, the more confused it was, Grainne did not scold the other person but hurriedly bent down to pick up the papers.
The last sheet of paper fell under a pair of shiny leather shoes, Grainne said without raising her head: "Hey, you're weird too, if you bump into someone else if you don't help them pick things up, you can move your leg. You're noble out? I'm in a hurry!"
Carwyn Levi frowned, coldly looking at the girl who had just hit him, and now sat mumbling at his feet, her expression puzzled, her legs still unmoving.
Grainne saw that the other man remained motionless and stood up, just as he was about to say something when suddenly startled by his gaze.
The boy was staring at her, his deep black eyes seemed to have no bottom, and there was no emotion on his resolute handsome face, like a cold block of ice for a thousand years.
Grainne suddenly felt a chill down her spine.
Carwyn Levi looked at the girl in front of him, remembering the feeling she'd just had when she'd bumped into his chest, why was there such a strangely familiar feeling?
"Miss, we are walking normally, you ran up to us, you know that?" Simon looked at the impolite, fierce girl in front of him, then turned to look at Carwyn Levi, the young master who had just been hit in the chest by her and began to reconcile.
Carwyn Levi is an ordinary young master with hundreds of thousands of jobs, and it is difficult to find some free time to go to the company's hospital to visit Carwyn Levi the old man being treated.
Who would have thought that, as soon as he entered the hospital gate, he was slammed into, and that person was still so disrespectful?
The great young master Carwyn Levi was never insulted.
"Hem... Really sorry, I was in a hurry so I couldn't see you, sorry sorry."
After realizing that she was the unreasonable one, Grainne immediately admitted her mistake, apologizing while raising her hand, and making a gesture of sincerity.
"Haha ha..." Simon laughed at her move.
Then he turned to look and suddenly saw that the corner of Carwyn Levi's lips also lifted a little and then immediately dropped.
Oh my god, Carwyn Levi's ice cube can also laugh, is it an illusion?
"Let's go." Carwyn Levi glanced at Simon who was Probin Levig, ignored the girl in front of him, and headed straight for the advanced treatment area where old Carwyn Levi was lying.
Grainne looked at the figure of that cold, quiet man, that solid figure made her suddenly startled, although his face was very cold, he was a handsome guy.
God, what are you thinking? Must go for an interview!
Grainne picked up the piece of paper that was just stepped on by the other guy and quickly rushed to the human resources department of Gloria fashion design agency, the interview was almost over, Grainne had just heard of the last person.
Standing in front of the interview room door, Grainne lightly patted her chest.
Luckily arrived in time.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered, she suddenly felt dizzy.
Because three people are sitting at the interview place, including a very familiar face that Grainne is afraid will never forget in this life.
Is the name Department of Khanh Brian!
He was one of her interviewers again!
Grainne's legs were in a panic, and almost fell, with this Chu Khanh here, her interview certainly had no hope, but anyway, it was here, still had to complete the interview.
"Hi, my name is Grainne, nice to have the opportunity to sit here..."
Grainne calmed down and began to introduce herself, a calm face, gentle voice, bright face, and neat appearance, making the interviewers very satisfied.
Brian stared blankly at Grainne, who was speaking in front of him, for a long moment.
Grainne? Is this the Grainne from his memories?
The girl who used to wear simple clothes, looking like a schoolgirl was no longer there.
The girl in front of him now wears very fashionable makeup, young and sexy without being provocative, her skin is white, and her lips are full of charm.
His eyes revealed an indescribable surprise.
The questions that followed, Grainne all answered perfectly.
This makes the interviewers breathe a sigh of relief, who have worked hard all day, read many resumes, met many candidates, and finally without effort, have found the right person.
Ignoring all the selection processes, the interviewers all decided to hire Grainne.
The interview went smoothly, and Grainne breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now, when she saw Chu Khanh's name, she lost her temper a bit, fortunately, she quickly regained her state.
Remembering Harry was still in the hospital, Grainne quickly adjusted her mood, wanting to return to her son.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she stepped out of the office, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind her.
"Grainne, long time no see."
Grainne's face showed distaste, but when she turned around, a polite smile appeared on her face, "What's wrong, Brian?"
This polite face and tone made Brian understand that Grainne still hadn't forgotten about the past, he said with surprise: "I didn't expect to be able to meet you here, what a fate. Where have you been for the past five years? I've always been looking for you."
As he spoke he reached out his hand, intending to hug Grainne.
Grainne took a step back, away from his hand, a hint of disdain on her face.
"Grainne, can't you still forgive me?" Brian smiled sheepishly, his face imploring, "You were too young then to resist the charms of scheming girls. After you left, I regretted it, even wanted to kill myself, I ran everywhere looking for you but couldn't find it, where have you been all these years?"
Grainne looked at her ex-boyfriend who was so regretful that she was about to cry in front of her, but there was no pity in her heart, that fake face she had seen many times over the years.
She was no longer the stupid girl she used to be, just hearing a few words Brian quickly naively believed.
"Thank you, Brian, for your concern, I've lived very well these past few years, we will be colleagues in the future, it is inevitable to meet, let the past things pass, and avoid awkwardness between the two sides."
After saying that, she was about to leave, but Brian held her hand.
"Brother Brian, please be proud!" She jerked her hand away.
"Grainne, you have to know, if it weren't for me, you think you would have passed this interview smoothly?"
Grainne is annoyed, it seems that this guy Chu Khanh is not thick-skinned but completely unapproachable, who does he think he is to have the right to decide for the whole interview?
"Chief Brian, no, it seems to be just a deputy, I remember you only have one vote, the designer this time finally chooses who is decided by the head of the department and the corporation, he highly appreciates it. me, thank you very much, but please don't call yourself talented! I still have work, please go first, bye-bye."
After saying that, she turned and left.
Brian was scolded by Grainne until his face turned pale, angrily watching her figure leave.
You talkative bitch, don't know good or bad, later you will know my hand.
At hospital A.
In the pediatric ward at this time, there were a lot of people, doctors, and nurses rushing around the ward looking for something.
Grainne wondered, stopping a nurse from asking what had happened.
The nurse with a tense face replied, "Children's patient ward 7 is missing."
Room number 7...
Harry!
Grainne rushed to Harry's ward 7, as expected, there was no one inside.
My son is missing!
Grainne suddenly felt her mind go blank, her whole body shaking.
Suddenly, she remembered something, quickly pulled out her phone, and nervously pressed the key to call Teacher Li.
Before she left, she left Harry to Teacher Lee, did she ever take him out?
"Hello?" The other end of the line picked up.
"Miss Lee, I'm Grainne, may I ask... is Harry staying with you?" Grainne clutched the phone tightly in her hand, trying to suppress the choke in her throat.
"Is it Grainne? Harry is not with me, just now suddenly something happened at my house, I saw Harry sleeping, so I ran home for a bit. Why what happened?" Teacher Li also noticed something unusual.
Grainne panicked, couldn't take it anymore, but sat down on the bed, crying: "Hu hu... Harry... is missing!"
"What? I just left, why is this? Hello? Hello?"
What the other end of the line said, Grainne didn't know either.
She rushed out of the ward, almost losing her mind, ignoring the disapproving looks of the other patients, but pushed open the doors of all the rooms, calling out Harry's name, trying to find her son's whereabouts.
But looking all over the floor, there was no sign of Harry.
Grainne looked like she had just lost her soul, her eyes were empty, her face was pale and pale, and she walked into the hospital.
She unconsciously walked in front of a small building.
This building is different from other buildings in the hospital, looks like a mansion but is quite modest.
Grainne's mind was confused, thinking about Harry running away alone, not knowing if he was in any danger, she felt her eyes go dark, her legs were weak, and she sat down on the steps of the building.
It's all her fault, if it wasn't for her to run away for the interview and leaving Harry, how could Harry have disappeared? The more Grainne thought, the angrier she became, hitting herself in the head.
"Haha! You have lost! This time I will eat!"
Suddenly, a mischievous and extremely familiar voice came down from the second floor of the building, and Grainne seemed to wake up and raised her head in joy.
This is...
Hearing her son's voice, Grainne immediately jumped up, intending to run upstairs.
"Stop!"
But as soon as she reached the gate, she was stopped by a tall bodyguard.
"Ma'am, this is a special treatment area, outsiders are not allowed in." The bodyguard said seriously.
Grainne completely ignored what he said, insisting on going inside, "Let me in, my son is in there!"
"Who are you?" The bodyguard was still standing in front of her, his face still serious.
During the emergency, Grainne was completely at a loss for words, only blurting out: "I am the mother of my children!"
What kind of answer is that?
Grainne became confused because of the stress, but for a moment did not know how to describe her identity, could only continuously say: "Brother, you let me in! My son is in there!"
"Let her in." A cold voice suddenly sounded.
This voice... seems to have heard it somewhere before...
Grainne raised her head, seeing a cold gaze looking at her, she was surprised: "Is it you?"
The person standing in front of her was the cold guy she bumped into at the hospital this morning.
"Grainne, is Harry your son?" Carwyn Levi didn't care about her question, just coldly asked back.
"Yes Yes Yes!" Grainne answered excitedly.
Carwyn Levi looked at the worried girl in front of him, her pretty white face still with unshed tears, clearly just crying, but still exuding an attractive aura, he softly squint.
"It's upstairs, follow me."
His voice was calm but still had an irresistible power, sounding less like an invitation but more like an order.
Grainne didn't notice it either, obediently following Carwyn Levi up to the second floor.
The building seems to have only three floors, very quiet inside, decorated with two main colors, white and light brown, most of which are high-grade stone materials, beautiful and bright, and extremely luxurious. Living here is sure to be very comfortable, indeed a very good retreat.
Carwyn Levi led Grainne to a room on the second floor, laughter from inside.
Pushing open the door was a spacious, clean room without a speck of dust, decorated very simply, the most striking thing being a large bed in the middle of the room, sitting on the Harry that Grainne struggled to find now. bed.
"Mom!"
Seeing Grainne, Harry ran over to her with joy and threw himself into her arms, wrapping his arms around her neck.
Finding her son again, Grainne hugged him tightly, tears of joy in her eyes.
"This kid, why is he running around, do you know how worried mom was just now?"
Grainne scolded in her mouth, but her hands still held her son tightly, afraid of losing him again.
"Mom, you hurt me so much." Harry pouted, reaching out to stroke Grainne's head, consolingly, "Don't be afraid, Harry is here."
Grainne was touched to hear that, tears could not help but flow, she let go of her son and nervously checked Harry all over, after confirming that everything was fine, then she was relieved.
"Just now, Harry heard her talking to the bodyguard below and asked to come down to find him, but I couldn't bear to let him go, so I told my nephew to come to pick you up, I wanted to see what a mother would raise. to have such a lovely baby!"
The person who spoke was an old man with a very kind face, the same person who had been playing with Harry just now.
The old man has gray hair and a beard but his spirit is still very clear, his face is full of age traces, and has the mischievousness of a child.
"Thank you for helping to take care of my Harry, already causing you more trouble."
Grainne stooped to thank the old man.
"Haha, nothing is nothing, an old man like me, having to spend the last days of his life here, is not interesting, Harry is nimble and cute, on the contrary, it makes me less bored."
The old man lovingly looked at the melon-haired boy in front of him, his eyes full of love.
Then he turned to Carwyn Levi beside him and said a little sulkily, "You're already thirty years old and you don't have a girlfriend, marriage is even more distant until I can hold my great-grandson. cute like Harry?"
With that, he reached out and stroked Harry's head again as if only the adorable baby in front of him could make him happy.
Carwyn Levi stood beside him emotionless, hearing his grandfather's complaint just coldly nodded, not explain.
Carwyn Levi always had such a fearsome coldness, but as a very dutiful grandson, never opposed to the old Carwyn Levi, hearing these complaints also only silently accepted.
Grainne felt a little embarrassed and hastily changed the subject: "Honey, why did you run here?"
"Mom, just now I went to the top of the hospital, almost fell, fortunately, this uncle saved me." Harry pointed at Carwyn Levi, looking at Carwyn Levi with wide, adoring eyes.
Grainne startled, "Son, what are you running upstairs for? It's dangerous there!"
"Teacher said, standing high will see far, Harry wants to stand a little higher, maybe he will see his mother." When the boy saw Grainne's worried expression, he immediately knew that he had angered his mother, so he uneasily rubbed his hands with a resentful expression.
Grainne was heartbroken and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry baby, I shouldn't be aggressive with you, don't go to dangerous places in the future, okay? I don't want anything to happen to you."
Seeing Harry solemnly nod in agreement, Grainne felt reassured.
The emotional scene of the mother and daughter in front of her seemed to fall into a dusty corner deep in Carwyn Levi's heart.
This scene was so foreign to him.
Since he lost his mother when he was a child, he is used to independence, whether it is life or corporate management, he can calmly and decisively handle it.
Except for the love story, if it wasn't special, no woman could make his heart flutter.
But if he fell in love, he would never turn back. An image of someone flashed in his mind, but then it disappeared.
He looked at Grainne and said, "She didn't say ward, so I took her here for the time being."
Because he didn't want to hear the old man Carwyn Levi's grumbling, he deliberately found a quiet place, smoked a cigarette, and breathed some air, who expected to encounter this boy.
The boy stood close to the rooftop, his hands gripping the railing, his hair was blown by the wind, he thought he was going to jump, but when he got closer, he realized that he had climbed the railing and then did not dare to come down again. had to reach out and take it down.
"How should I thank you?" Grainne is deeply grateful.
Brother, you are so handsome, or should I repay you with my body...
Grainne thought so, but immediately put it aside, and said nervously, "Or, may I invite you to a meal?"
Carwyn Levi without hesitation nodded and said: "Okay."
This answer was so quick and decisive that Grainne didn't know how to react for a moment.
"Ehm... Then... what do you like to eat?" Grainne secretly thought in her heart, looking at this person's appearance is a rich man, please don't tell me to go to some fancy restaurant, I really can't pay...
Unexpectedly, Carwyn Levi only coldly said, "It's up to you."
This person doesn't talk much... But that's good, saves money!
"Then I invite you to eat spicy hot pot!"
"OK."
Grainne was dumbfounded again, and Carwyn Levi, the old mNadiaing next to him, was staring at the two of them like he was watching a good movie, surprised in his heart: Since when did this kid become so easy?
The three said goodbye to the old man and walked towards the night market.
The night just fell, and the night market of the city of Y was very bustling, bustling with people passing by.
Walking among the people, Grainne still felt nervous and uneasy, because the man walking beside her was emitting a cold air that made her almost freeze, and remained silent, not saying anything, eating together later. It would be weird not to say anything...
But fortunately, with Harry, the situation was not so cold.
"Uncle, look, there's a goldfish."
"The cotton candy is too big, look at it."
"Uncle, here we are squeezing a curd!"
Harry the whole time Brian was held in Carwyn Levi's arms, chattering non-stop, seeing something interesting, he immediately showed it to Carwyn Levi, he seemed to like this benefactor very much.
This kid just met someone for a day, called him "uncle" so sweet, even his biological mother doesn't need him anymore, what a waste of effort to raise.
Grainne sulked as she looked at Harry, who was laughing happily with Carwyn Levi.
Carwyn Levi remained the same cold face for a thousand years, but his deep eyes seemed to shine.
He had never liked children, felt they were too noisy, and did not understand.
But with Harry, he did not hate at all, on the contrary, there was a strangely familiar feeling of love.
"Ah, you, my name is Grainne, I still don't know your noble name." Grainne tried to break the embarrassment.
