"I just want to make a wish, it’s not like I’m doing something terrible and inhumane..." Sophie Smith looked at him helplessly, "You won’t even allow that?"
"Tell me your wish, and I, Asher Land, will definitely fulfill it." Of course, except for the wish of leaving him, which he couldn’t fulfill.
"Is it useful to tell you? You’re not God after all."
"Do I not look like God?"
There was no way this conversation could continue, Sophie Smith was forced by Asher Land to give up praying and give up wishing.
The street scenery was beautiful, Sophie Smith took out her phone and flashed a cheeky smile at the camera.
It seemed like she wasn’t affected by Asher Land’s restrictions on her.
She took many photos, yet none of them contained his image.
"Shall we take a picture together?"
As if by a twist of fate, she actually invited him.
There was a hint of surprise in his eyes, yet he was good at managing his emotions, he calmly took her phone, raised it, and pointed the camera at them.
At that moment, their mouths were both touched with smiles, the two in the frame were so harmonious.
If time could stand still, how much he wished this moment could be captured forever.
They stayed in Italy for a total of five days, after all Asher Land was a busy person with many matters to handle at the company.
Sophie Smith returned to the company, and everywhere she went, she found everyone looking at her with particularly curious and gossip-filled eyes.
"Sophie, you must have had a great time these days, right?" Julia Brown came up to her, blinking her big bright eyes non-stop, "I heard you went on a romantic trip with President Land?"
"Who’s spreading rumors?"
"The whole company is saying so!" Julia was convinced, "Everyone can see how President Land is good to you. Sunny said that President Land called her, saying something like...?"
Julia tried to recall, then clapped her hands, "Oh, Sunny said President Land was afraid you might be tired, so he instructed her to cancel your schedule and take you to Italy to relax!"
What nonsense! Rumors are truly terrifying.
Besides, how could he be so kind to take her to relax, he just took her along to accompany him to engagements, coincidentally meeting his physical needs?
"That’s not true, don’t talk nonsense." Sophie Smith sternly warned Julia, she didn’t want the whole company to think of Asher Land as a perfect gentleman, when in fact he was a full-time dictatorial demon!
Sophie Smith and Julia continued chatting in the lounge, but Julia wouldn’t stop bringing up Asher Land in every sentence.
"Sophie, you know what? You must have saved the Milky Way Galaxy in your past life to meet President Land in this one."
"I’ve now decided, I want to do more good deeds, maybe in my next life I’ll meet a man like President Land."
"Oh, President Land is truly romantic. Look at how long you’ve been with him? He could never bear to let you go, even with so many women around him..."
"Sophie, now every woman in the company sees you as an object of envy, President Land really dotes on you."
"Julia, stop it." Sophie Smith somewhat impatiently interrupted Julia’s endless chatter, "You think must be because you’re seeing things."
Most people can’t see the sinister side of Asher Land, luckily, she had already seen the truth.
