Chapter 6
Cheating was like domestic violence, there were only zero times and countless times.
When Alvin couldn’t resist the temptation and chose to stay with her, it did not guarantee if he would never do that again in the future.
Maybe next time he could be with someone else when he met interest in a new one.
To me, a man without a moral bottom line was no different from a stinky stone in a toilet.
Only someone like Mary would feel that she had found a treasure.
Mary’s face turned red because of what I said, “Cynthia, I know you look down on people like me who come from the countryside, but I have been working hard to change myself.
“I won’t forget your help to me before, but I really like Alvin. You think he is not good, but he is like a priceless treasure to me. I hope you will not say that about him in the future.
She said both nonsensical and funny things, which made me almost laugh at her.
“If you really like him, then just go for him, I will not stop you. Until today, I have been doing everything for you, right? What else do you want from me? Should I set off fireworks to celebrate for you?
I was wearing a sophisticated business suit and my aura was stronger than hers, so I spoke in a condescending manner.
Plus, there were tears in her eyes and if you didn’t know better you would think I was bullying her. When I was about to tell her not to waste my precious time, Alvin ran out from somewhere.
He stood in front of Mary in a protective manner, his cold and handsome face was tense and there was some dissatisfaction in his eyes when he looked at me, but he didn’t say anything.
He turned his head and looked her up and down. Then he asked in a very soft voice, “You haven’t been bullied, have you?”
Mary shook her head and said delicately, “I’m fine. I just came to talk to Cynthia. Alvin, don’t worry. Cynthia won’t do anything to me.
Alvin didn’t believe it, he looked up at me and sneered, “Cynthia, don’t involve her in our affairs, I’ll talk to you about whatever you want to talk about.
Seeing them putting the blame on each other, I curled my lips in self–mockery.
It also reminded me of the past, when we were in college, we used to skip classes to go out and play. At that time, he was already slowly getting involved in the company’s business and was so busy that he was dizzy.
He complained to me more than once that he was under a lot of pressure and wanted to relax. So I skipped classes and took him out to play and relax.
But on the way back, we were caught by both our parents.
They asked us again and again who came up with the idea of skipping classes to go out and play.
I did not want to implicate him, so I was about to say it was me, but he pointed at me and said, “It Cynthia who pulled me out.
The people from the Murphy family all looked unhappy that time, but considering the relationship. between the two families, they did not blame me.
I used to think that it was my fault in the first place, so I did not blame him for betraying me.
On the contrary, I think he was a very selfless person.
But at that time, it seemed he was not the kind of person I thought he was.

He might never protect me because he never liked me either, so I just curled my lips slightly and said. coldly, “I have nothing to discuss with you. She is just asking for trouble. I don’t have time to waste with you. If you have nothing to do, just get out of here.
I didn’t give them time to react and walked quickly towards the elevator.
As I walked into the elevator, I looked back at the place where I had just stood, only to find that there was no one there.
I collected my thoughts and looked away.
