Expert Down The Mountain Chapter 5
“Did you forget the third condition that I told you? Cyrus Salazar, I must never let you meet my friends!”
“I actually planned to go out. I’m only going out with you so Mr. Gardner won’t suspect us. Do you really think your grandfather, who founded Gardner Corporation, won’t figure us out?”
Korah was stunned. She then said embarrassingly, “Of course, I know that. I don’t need you to tell me this!”
When they were about to reach the mall, Korah stepped on the brake and said coldly, “Get down. Go wherever you want. I’ll call you when I’m ready to go home.”
It would only make sense if they headed home together after having left together. They would be slipping up if they came home separately.
“I don’t have a phone.”
Korah frowned. ‘In this era, how is it possible for someone to not own a phone?’
After looking at Cyrus’s clothes, which were obviously made in a village, Korah felt as if the world was even more unfair. ‘This man obviously doesn’t deserve me, the daughter of the wealthy Gardner family.
‘Grandpa, what are you thinking…?
‘Good thing that I’ve made a call in advance to fake the marriage license. What would my life become if I were to really marry him?!’
“I could wait for you here before dusk?” Cyrus asked.
Korah frowned. She snorted and gave him a credit card. “Go get a phone. Grandpa is going to scold me if we went out and didn’t get you a phone.”
Cyrus thought about it. ‘She’s right. It’s quite inconvenient if I don’t have a phone. I’m not in a village anymore.’
“Thanks.”
Korah ignored him. She stepped on the accelerator and her BMW Z4 sped off with a loud noise.
Cyrus sighed as he looked at the credit card in his hand. Then, he sighed again. “If Mr. Frank hadn’t taken the money in my piggy bank, I wouldn’t have ended up like this…”
Just when Cyrus was about to leave, he heard a familiar voice calling his name.
“Cyrus!”
It was Dr. Truman Cohen.
“Dr. Cohen,” Cyrus replied.
“Why are you here alone?” Truman asked, getting out of his car.
“I’m going to buy a phone.”
“What?” Truman was stunned. He then asked, “What kind of phone are you looking for? There are a few phone shops beside my pharmacy.”
“Anything is fine.”
“Alright. Why not go to the phone shops there to have a look?”
Cyrus was not familiar with this sort of thing. So, he nodded and agreed to go with him.
Thousand Medicine Pharmacy was famous, not only in Fliton City. It was also well-known throughout Atralo because it was established by Dr. Cohen.
The location of the pharmacy was pretty good. But, it did not matter because it was established by him.
There was a woman in her twenties in the pharmacy, wearing a white nurse’s uniform. She was preparing the medicine. She looked up when she saw someone walking in. She then greeted Truman in a clear, loud voice. “Grandpa.”
Cyrus looked at the woman in a nurse uniform. She did not wear any exquisite make-up. She looked naturally elegant.
He wanted to tell Mr. Frank that there were many gorgeous women in the city. Their beauty was incomparable to the widow in the village, Lilith.
“Cyrus, this is my daughter, Alda.”
“Hello.” Cyrus nodded.
There was a hint of surprise in Alda’s delicate face. ‘Grandpa rarely introduces someone so politely. What’s more, he’s so young!’
Truman had been in the medical field for a very long time. All the dignitaries usually spoke to him politely. It was rare for him to be so polite towards someone.
That was why she was extremely curious about Cyrus now.
“Cyrus, come in and take a seat.”
Truman invited him to have a cup of tea in the reception room.
After a while, there was a voice asking for help outside. The person sounded like he was panicking.
“Dr. Cohen! Is Dr. Cohen here?!”
