Layla (II)

"Hmm" Alex muttered.

At the moment, he didn't know what to say again.

After looking at Layla for sometime who avoided his gaze by looking at the ground and hoping he would accept her request, he asked "So, what about me? Can I trust you?"

"Yes. I would never do anything to harm you, since I want you to be my cultivation partner." Layla said.

"Do you love me?" Alex asked.

"Actually, to be honest with you, I haven't fallen in love with you yet. I only like you for the many good things that I have been hearing about you. It's like chorus everyday in the street. Even my workers talk all the time about you, like you were one god in this mortal world. You are so popular that my curiousness about you and my interest in you was piqued. So, I like you very much, and you would definitely be someone that I would certainly fall in love with in the end." Layla replied.

"Okay. What about those guys that you went to meet? Did you also love them?" Alex asked.
