Cherylâs expression turned cold. âDonât speak of that person.â
Alex said, âIâm just trying to say that Iâm essentially the same kind of person like your father.â
âWhat do you mean?â
âIâm not a very devoted person in a relationship.â
âYou⦠what are you trying to say?â Her body trembled slightly, as if she knew what he was about to tell
her. Since the conversation had reached this topic, Alex simply opened up with her and said, âYou
know about Daya Stoermer, right? Sheâs the endorser of Lush Cosmetics. She had posted an
Instagram post a few days ago. Have you seen it?â
âI saw it! So, that husband that she was talking about is you! Are you both married?â
âWe arenât married but she is indeed my woman.â
She was silent.
After a while, Cheryl nodded her head. âI understand.â
Alex was dumbfounded. He turned around and looked at her while having a slight worrying frown.
âThere is also the current CEO of Thousand Miles Conglomerate, Waltz Fleur!â
Cheryl said, âI saw that during the last medical exchange.â
âDorothy Assexâ¦â
âWhat? You havenât broken up with her yet?â
âIt canât be broken! Weâre just faking our divorce!â
âI⦠F*ck!â
The beautiful, dignified and virtuous doctor let out a cursed word after hearing it. She was really at her
witâs end. âHavenât you suffered in the household of the Assexes? I even got slapped by your
unreasonable mother-in-law! I got slapped for nothing!â
âHence, compared to me, your fatherâs character may be slightly better than mine.â
âWhat actually are you trying to say here? Are you trying to say that you donât want to hold any
responsibility for hugging and kissing me yesterday?â
âI just want to tell you that Iâm not a good person! Iâm not a good match for you! Iâm afraid I would drag
you down and may even cause greater implications such as death threats!â
Three seconds later, Cheryl bit his shoulder.
Then, she angrily said, âWhatâs the point of you telling me all these now? Anyway, Iâve not thought of
marrying you! And I donât want to! Thereâs nothing good out of the men in this world!â
Alex felt much less guilty after saying the words hidden in his mind. Although Cheryl was a rare beauty
who would also be a great wife, he was a man with a wife and mistresses after all. All kinds of contacts
previously were already very dangerous, he did not want to harm a good woman like her. They were
not people of the same world.
As he thought about it, his mind was clear.
Although there would be regret in his heart, it would still be better than hating him because of love in
the future.
Swoosh!
He walked even faster and his figure was like a bolt of lightning while continuously moving around on
the tree branches. It was because there were no more roads in front.
He had no choice but run up the tree to look for a way.
And, Cheryl was amazed by such an experience. Her heart throbbed continuously. Which woman
would not like heroes? She was no exception. The strong and overbearing character of a man, the
mystery of a man, and all sorts of a manâs performance surpassing the mundane were like a womanâs
poison.
Once one was caught up by it, itâs incurable.
âWeâre almost there!â
Alex stood in the canopy of a large tree while looking down on the mountain valley.
That was the place that James Coney mentioned. It was the former site of Ganoderma that was
opened up when the people of Ganoderma escaped from the turmoil at the time and helplessly hid in
the depth of mountains and forests.
However, at this moment, he suddenly realized that someone was in the valley.
âThis is weird!â
âDid your grandfather ever tell you that there are people living in Ganoderma?â
Cheryl shook her head. âMy grandfather said that itâs impossible. This former site of Ganoderma is very
hidden and itâs inconvenient for communication to the outside world. Who would live in such a place?â
Alex said, âIâll go in and explore. You wait here.â
Cheryl clung on his neck tightly. âI donât want to. Iâm afraid of heights and Iâll fall.â
