"How could this be Dakota?" The voice of a woman in the crowd on the street, staring at the street billboard that showed an announcement about Dakota.The woman stared wide-eyed at Dakota's appearance, which had changed 180 degrees from the Dakota she once recognized. The woman tightly clenched her hand that held her bag tightly, her eyes did not move from where they were, listening to the news being aired all over the country.She was Gea, the woman who rejected Dakota's love five times because Dakota was just a poor man. Gea used to really dislike Dakota because of Dakota's poor status. She was upset that a poor man like Dakota dared to like someone like her.But now, Gea seemed frustrated to know the truth. "I should have just accepted it back then." She regretted it. "If I was with him, my life wouldn't have been possible like it is today."She grumbled in annoyance, her past suddenly came back into her head, she remembered the figure of Dakota who used to like her but she rejecte
"I told you to let me in!" Snapped the man, Dakota's uncle, while Dakota's status was unknown.Because the news about Dakota circulated across the country and appeared in the newspapers, people who recognized Dakota recognized Dakota's picture, which was only taken briefly because the O'Connor family still guarded his identity.But for people who intersect with her, of course, Dakota's silhouette is so easy for them to recognize. Therefore, the uncle is currently in the leading company owned by the O'Connor family to find Dakota."Sorry, but you can't come in." The guard at the building's main door blocked his uncle Dakota's attempt to break in.Since they were so insistent on getting in, they seemed normal at first. But when asked what their purpose was and if they had made a schedule to meet, the people, instead of answering argued to be allowed to enter.The man with slightly bleached hair near his ears brushed off the guard's hand. "I told you I was his uncle! Didn't you hear me?"
"Dakota, you're such a joker." The woman, whose face looked shocked a moment ago, now turned soft. She chuckled while patting Dakota's arm.But Dakota had a different expression. He ignored what the woman was doing and just glanced at her with her gaze looking down because they were quite short and too close to her.The woman touched Dakota's hand like she was used to doing that every time she met Dakota. She didn't seem awkward at all, even though to Dakota, what she was doing was a nuisance.The woman's eyes widened, and with her face as friendly as possible, she spoke, "You are very easy to joke with. I can tell that you're a good person." She complimented Dakota, flicking her gaze towards the others, and the men greeted the woman's words with pitched exclamations. "After all, we're the ones who took care of you when you were little. If it wasn't for us, you wouldn't be in this place right now." She spoke with pride."That's right!" The others exclaimed. "We are the family that too
"What the hell is Dakota doing to us?" Said the uncle, who was currently on the side of the road not far from Dakota's company.They were all forcibly evicted by the security guards and threatened to be reported to the authorities if they were still there. So, with the people forced to leave, they looked disgruntled and upset."I don't accept what he did to us." The aunt coaxing Dakota with her sweet words now showed her true face. "She can't just kick us out."The people strolling and blocking the other pedestrians seemed to be very indifferent to the other people. They walked and stopped, walked and stopped again without caring.There were three women and two men, but none cared about Dakota.The woman who had blonde hair and looked younger than them looked at her brothers with a similar look on her face. "He can't be allowed. We must teach Dakota a lesson." The woman privatized hi,."Lesson?" The woman who approached Dakota earlier turned his attention to the woman. "What do you me
"What is this? Why is the news like this?" the aunt stared at the screen dumbfounded.The news they prepared and presented to the media to attack Dakota suddenly turned around and attacked them. Moreover, the news exposed their family's confidential matters."It is known that the family of the O'connor family heir's adoptive father before returning to the O'connor family treated the heir with bad manners." The man presenting the news spoke loudly with the news. "They took the money from her father's death insurance without giving any of the money left to Dakota."They were dumbfounded, looking at each other. Not understanding how it could have happened. They had no idea that news about themselves would be exposed to the media. They weren't necessary, so they didn't think the press would target them."How did they find out about that?" They were stunned. Even Dakota didn't know about her adoptive father's insurance, and his will wasn't read in front of her. She hadn't received any supp
Dakota held out flowers to a woman. "Will you accept me?"The woman's eyes widened perfectly. "What are you doing?" She clenched her hands tightly together, holding back her embarrassment. "This is so embarrassing."Dakota confessed his feelings to a woman he loved in front of a crowd. He had already been rejected by her 100 times. The woman's name was Ghea. Despite the constant rejections, Dakota still didn't want to give up.Everyone watching them laughed. "That crazy guy wants to confess his love to Ghea again? He will definitely get rejected again!""Still won't give up even though he's been rejected repeatedly!" The voices of the other students continued to ring out with laughter, making Ghea feel even more embarrassed.Ghea's friends gently nudged her arm. "Come on, just accept her. He's tried so hard that it doesn't matter that he's confessed his love to you hundreds of times."Laughing, they deliberately teased Ghea. "Yes, Ghea. Just accept it! He's already prepared that beaut
Dakota woke up with his eyes widened to perfection. He was breathing heavily. His entire body was drenched with sweat. He cast his eyes around. He was in an all-white room with medical equipment attached all over his body and a monitor screen beside the bed that kept beeping, disturbing the hearing.Dakota looked at the IV tube attached to her right hand. "Ah, where am I? Why am I here?"Dakota looked around once more. Then he was surprised by the arrival of a female nurse who walked into Dakota's room with a friendly smile. "Thank goodness. Apparently you've regained consciousness."Something made Dakota's forehead immediately wrinkled in confusion when the nurse spoke calmly like nothing happened at all, but strangely she could hear the nurse's voice. In fact, the nurse was not talking.It was lazy to serve a poor man like this patient. He is not a rich man.Dakota shook his head while blinking his eyes several times because he felt something was wrong with his senses of hearing and
The doctor's face instantly changed. He released his embrace on his wife. "One moment." He approaches Dakota. "Can you wait in yout room?"Dakota looked at the doctor named Loewi intently. "Why not stay here, Doctor? Are you afraid of your wife finding out you're cheating on her?"Loewi's brow furrowed. He didn't understand why his patient would say that. Loewi was still calm in front of his wife. "What do you mean?"The woman named Olive beside Loewi also frowned, feeling strange about their quiet conversation. "Why, is there something going on?"Leowi smiled kindly, hiding his surprise at what Dakota had said. "Yes, this patient needs my help." He looked back at Dakota. "You can wait for me in the room, sir. I'll be right there with you."Dakota smiled, then whispered to Loewi. "I know that you are having an affair with a nurse here."Loewi is getting a strange feeling from Dakota. He holds Dakota's hand while speaking in a low tone of voice. "Let's talk about this in my office, sir
