Chapter 885
The call with Cheryl ended, and they agreed to meet at the restaurant called Stylish Steakhouse beside Willow Lake. Alex was curious—who was this friend of Cheryl’s that wanted to meet him?He had thought that it would be her boyfriend, but now that she said it was a girl, he really couldn’t think of anyone.And he would never imagine that the friend Cheryl spoke about would be the doctor he had a conflict with two days ago in Michigan State Hospital, the woman who had her high heel stuck in a manhole cover. If he knew, he wouldn’t have agreed to meet her… With the time he had on hand, it would be better just to cut his toenails at home.“Holly, I’m going to meet a friend. Do you want to come with me?” Alex asked Holly.“Are you going to pick up a girl?” Holly rolled her eyes openly, a disdainful look on her face.“No, you’ve misunderstood!” “No, I don’t want to go! I don’t want to watch public displays of affection!” Holly shoved both hands into her pocket, a disgusted look o

The first thought that came to her mind was that it wasn’t some old geezer.The second was that the guy was tall, handsome, and had a rather unique temperament.Third, f*ck, why was it this scum? A particularly unqualified, very annoying bastard.Was he really Cheryl’s secret crush?Phoebe was stunned as she stared at Alex, who was walking over. Alex was shocked as well, not expecting to see that narcissistic and perverted woman again on this occasion. Seeing her gaze, which looked like she could eat someone, Alex didn’t cower away and met it straight on.‘Hmph. What a nutcase, wanting to fight gaze with me? I have the blessing of high mental power, and I can force you back.’The two looked at each other, their gazes as sharp as knives.Cheryl was a little surprised and asked, “Do you two know each other?”“No!”They answered in unison, shook their heads, and looked away at the same time.Phoebe gritted her teeth discreetly and said, “Cheryl, your friend is exceptionally

Phoebe was dumbfounded.No, it was that dumb drink.It was on her hair, her face, and everywhere.The main point here was that there was some pulp in the drink. Forget about her face. Her white fashionable dress was also soaked and had become translucent from the liquid.And her black, tightfitting undergarment was also clearly visible.Alex glanced over.Wow, nice!It looked to be at least a C or D cup, right?He couldn’t help but give her a few more glances.“Oh, how did this happen?” Phoebe didn’t say anything, as though she had suddenly become mute. Cheryl stood up quickly and reached for the tissue box on the table.Alex also jumped up at this time. “I’m sorry, so sorry. But you were also too careless. How could you drop the cup? It was too sudden, and I couldn’t catch it. This…”Then, he reached out his hand in a hurry, rubbing Phoebe’s face.One big hand directly on her hand, scrub, scrub.Cheryl was stunned. Her hand froze midair while holding a tissue.Was this

That person was Cheryl’s former fanatical suitor, and he had extraordinary talents. He was the son of a Michigan tyrant, and he had gone abroad to further his studies after graduation. Having recently returned, the most important thing right now was that she happened to know that this guy would be in California these few days.‘Heh heh, that Alex guy is definitely a liar. He’s also such a vengeful and petty person.‘If Cheryl and him were to really end up together, her future will be miserable.‘Although I also hate Colby, getting him to come in and interfere in this situation may have unexpected results.’And so, after she had dealt with the mess on her face and applied a new layer of makeup, she also borrowed a table fan to dry the wet clothes on her. Phoebe gave an excuse that she needed to use the loo and used the time to send a message to Colby. Not only did she tell him that Cheryl was on a blind date here, but she even sent him a selfie that the two women had taken earlier.

Whoosh!The high-heel that had been kicked from Phoebe’s foot flew up high before finally falling right onto someone’s steak that had just been served. The Australian steak was thrown out of the steel plate, with the shoe taking its place, hissing loudly on the hot surface. A grilled leather shoe, freshly burnt. Fortunately, the steak had just been served, and the diner had managed to avoid getting a hot oil splatter. Otherwise, it would have definitely scalded them.Even so, a woman’s clothes were still soiled.Furious, she screamed, “Who was it?! Who’s shoe fell into my steak? Hurry up and admit it! Do you not have basic manners?!”Everyone present was stunned!The steakhouse staff rushed over immediately and looked around, and found that the only person who was standing was Alex.However…The shoe that had flown over was clearly one that belonged to a woman.Cheryl was also stunned, and she didn’t know what to do.As for Phoebe, she was holding onto her dainty feet, c

There was only one thought left in her mind, ‘This was already the second time! This was the second that this son of a bitch had tossed my shoes! I hate him!’The shoe was now indefinitely unwearable. Cheryl felt slightly awkward and tried to comfort the both of them.Seeing Phoebe's red and swollen ankle, it was apparent that Alex had kicked her quite hard. Knowing that Alex had unusual methods of healing for injuries like this, she said, “Alex, Phoebe’s leg is hurt quite badly. It will affect her participation in the Triangle River Delta Medical Exchange conference the day after tomorrow.”“What conference is that?” “That’s the main reason I asked you to dinner tonight.”Phoebe rolled her eyes, thinking about how they had been happily chatting about everything and ignoring her, yet they hadn’t said a single thing about the most essential matter.Cheryl thought that Phoebe’s injury was the most important thing right now, so she asked Alex for his help.Alex frowned. “I haven

She was stunned.Goosebumps appeared all over her body.“Colby Withers, what the heck are you playing at? Isn’t Cheryl the one you like? Everyone in university knows about how you’ve been chasing her for five years and how you liked her for those years. You should be confessing your love to her. Why are you confessing to me?” Cheryl was also taken aback.This was not the same as what she had imagined. But very quickly, she rejoiced in her friend’s misfortune and said while smiling at Phoebe, “You said it yourself just now, that if it were you, you would agree. Hurry up and accept him, then!”Alex also chipped in, “That’s right, you were boasting all about him just now, praising him up to the sky and how there was no one better than him on earth, and that he is a hundred times better than me. Such a good chance for a relationship here... you shouldn’t waste it, lest you be struck down by lightning for forsaking such a waste!”“You… I…” Phoebe was furious, but she was also speec

Colby looked at Alex and felt more grateful toward him than he ever did. “Bro, thank you, thank you!” he gushed.Alex smiled. “Don’t worry about it, don’t worry about it. I wish you and Miss Larsen an early marriage, and may you have children quickly. Remember to write me a cheque on the child’s first month!”“Of course, for sure. It’s a promise,” Colby hurriedly said. Seeing that Alex was about to pay the bill for the food, he quickly said he would settle it.Then, Alex pulled Cheryl out the doors and left.“Cheryl? Cheryl, don’t go!” Phoebe yelled, but Alex’s kick had injured her foot, and she didn’t have one shoe. Even if Colby had intentionally blocked her path or not, it wasn’t like she could walk even if she wanted to.***After they walked out of the steakhouse, Alex didn’t really leave the place but stood outside instead. He was well aware of the nature of some guys, and though Phoebe did upset him, something terrible might happen to her if he left her here just like th
