In mere moments, Cheryl received the video that her female colleague sent over.
After clicking into it⦠She felt as if she was watching a sci-fi movie. However, as someone who carried
the legacy of the Immortal Doctor, she wasnât doubtful towards such things. Moreover, Alex would
always encounter situations like these as well.
With this, she knew that Alex was the one who was yelling in the skies of Japan.
When they were still calling, Cherylâs grandparents were right next to her. The two saw the video and
heard Carolâs voice as well.
They lifted their gaze and stared at Cheryl in utter disbelief as if everything they knew was a lie.
âCherry, she⦠Sheâs calling out to Alex? As in, the Alex we know?â
Cheryl clicked away from the video and immediately dialed Alexâs number. She initially wondered if she
should delete his number and become strangers, but she didnât have the heart to do so. She was the
one who chased after him after all.
She was attracted to him on so many levels.
âCan I blame him for all this?â
âOf course, I can!â
âHe has so many women flocking to him too. What a sinful man.â
âBut heâs married, and his wife yelled at me tooâ¦â
âI was the shameless one!â
âSorry, the number you have dialed is unavailable, please try again later!â a monotone voice came from
her phone.
âI tried calling Alexâs number too, but it didnât go through,â James said.
Cheryl got up from her seat abruptly. She wanted to check out the Rockefeller manor.
Grandma Coney spoke up. âOh, what is it with you two? Do you actually believe such a ridiculous
video? People floating in mid- air⦠I think itâs just CGI. They can make whatever they want in movies
these days, but theyâre still no match for the classics like Titanic.â
A male voice suddenly chimed into the conversation. âMiss, Iâm worried about the young master.â
Grandma Coney jumped. âAh! Who⦠Who said that?â
James was looking around anxiously as well. âI heard that too. Cherry, did you?â
Cheryl turned to her old grandparents. âGrandpa, Grandma, I have something that Iâve been keeping
from you two.â
Grandma Coney was shocked. âCherry, is a man hiding in your room?â
âDid you break up with Alex?â James chimed in.
Cheryl placed her palm on her forehead. âElder, you can come out now!â
With this, Guilherme showed up in front of the three.
âOh, god!â Grandma Coney immediately grabbed onto James and shrieked. It was fortunate that James
took good care of his health, else he mightâve been pushed to the ground.
James, on the other hand, didnât seem as shocked. As the descendant of the Immortal Doctor, he had
heard of many weird incidents back when he was still a disciple. However, he was shocked to see
Guilherme appear in front of his eyes. âThe⦠The Immortal Doctor, G⦠Guilherme Extraordinaire?â he
exclaimed in disbelief.
Guilherme smiled. âThatâs right. Itâs the old man himself.â
According to how long his spirit has been around this realm, Guilherme was old enough to be Jamesâ
great-grandfather. So calling himself an old man was no problem.
With this, James was exhilarated. âItâs my great-grandmaster!â
He turned to Cheryl. âCherry, this⦠Whatâs going on here?â
Cheryl then explained what happened and how they were looking for the legacy of the Immortal Doctor
in Canyonland. She also explained that this was Guilhermeâs immortal soul, but he managed to look
like a living, breathing person because Alex cast the Paper Doll Curse of Three Realms on him.
Upon hearing this, James let go of his wife and tidied himself up. He bowed to Guilherme with the
utmost respect. âGreetings, Master Guilherme. I am James Coney, a disciple of the 27th generation of
Ganoderma! I welcome thee!â
Guilherme said, âYou can get up. Iâve known about you for quite a while now.â
Still quite worried about Alex. However, he urged Cheryl to head to the Rockefeller manor immediately.
Cheryl nodded and informed her grandparents, rushing out along with Guilherme.
James and Grandma Coney were the only people left in the house. They looked at each other in
disbelief, feeling as if they were dreaming.
