Chapter 140
"It does sound romantic," I said while looking at the flowers that were growing from the creaks. The
buds were trimmed regrly, and the scene was indeed beautiful.
Anyone who was in a bad mood would feel better instantly after taking a leisure walk through the alley.
He shrugged and said, "Of course."
I remembered the promise I had made with Monique while we were studying at college. That we would
earn lots of money and travel around the world together. I wanted to witness how vast the world was; I
want to experience different cultures and to leave my footprints at ancient and historical spots in the

world.
However, once we graduated from college, we left that behind us. Eventually, we got more and more
indulged in our adult lives that wepletely forgot our first dream.
"Arianna!" Sawyer called out to me. I came back to my senses and looked towards him.
He was walking not too far ahead of me, with his cell phone in hand. He snapped a few pictures of me
looking at him, then he said, "It''s a pity that you''re not an actress with that face of yours. Look, you are
so photogenic."
I couldn''t be bothered to say anything when he was taking candid shots of me. Looking at the flowers
on both sides, I asked, "Do the flowers here bloom all year round?"
He nodded, "Yes. The seasons don''t matter to these flowers. Plus, Ucrebury is in the south. The
climate and temperature here are suitable for nts to grow, so these flowers here do bloom all year
round."
It was really quite a sight!
Just strolling around there in the sunset, it felt pleasant andfortable.
"Why does it have to be Hendrix?" He asked gravely while putting his phone back in his pocket.
My mind went nk for a moment before I answered, "It''s not like that." Hendrix just appeared at the
time when I discovered what love was. I met him, and I thought to myself that he was the one.
Sawyer stopped in his tracks. He stood in front of me, and he looked solemn, "You''ll leave him sooner
orter, right?"
Iughed and pushed him away, "Who knows what will happen in the future."
What could I do even if I left him? Looking back, I shouldn''t have settled down with one person at such
a young age. Then, I wouldn''t be stuck with him, the same person who betrayed my love, for the rest of
my life.
Without us knowing, we had already reached the end of the alley. There was a food street with a
variety of local delights and daily necessities. It was very crowded.
Some people were wearing traditional outfits while casually walking down the street. That was a rare
sight to see too.
After walking for such a long while, we had finally reached our destination, But the sky had already
turned dark.
"You won''t mind eating at a roadside stall with me, do you?" Sawyer looked at me, supporting his chin
with his hand, and asked after finding a seat in a hotpot shop.
"If I do mind, will you look for another stall?" I asked.
He got up and said, "Sure, let''s find another stall."
I pulled him back to his seat and gave him the order sheet, saying, "I don''t like spicy food. You can
decide for the rest."
Upon seeing me ticking the order sheet, he sat down beside me and said with a smile, "I knew you
were different from other girls."
I found what he said funny. So I squinted at him and asked, "What do you mean by ''different''?"
He handed the order sheet over to the waiter and said, "Many girls will find roadside stalls dirty and
cheap. Then they''ll refuse to join me."
I nced at him and asked, "Why would you think that I don''t find roadside stalls dirty and cheap?"
He was at a loss for words, "Wait, do you think so?"
"Is that important?" I smirked and took a sip of water. "Bringing an unfamiliar girl to a roadside stall, is it
because you want to test her, or is it because you simply find the food here tasty and you wish to share
that with her? These are two very different concepts."
