The Pinnacle of Life

Chapter 885

The call with Cheryl ended, and they agreed to meet at the restaurant called Stylish Steakhouse beside Willow Lake.
Alex was curious who was this friend of Cheryl’s that wanted to meet him?
He had thought that it would be her boyfriend, but now that she said it was a girl, he really couldn’t think of anyone.
And he would never imagine that the friend Cheryl spoke about would be the doctor he had a conflict with two days ago in Michigan State Hospital, the woman who had her high heel stuck in a manhole cover. If he knew, he wouldn’t have agreed to meet her… With the time he had on hand, it would be better just to cut his toenails at home.
“Holly, I’m going to meet a friend. Do you want to come with me?” Alex asked Holly.
“Are you going to pick up a girl?” Holly rolled her eyes openly, a disdainful look on her face.
“No, you’ve misunderstood!”
“No, I don’t want to go! I don’t want to watch public displays of affection!” Holly shoved both hands into her pocket, a disgusted look on her face.
“…”
“Then, what about your dinner?”

“Just give me money. I’ll handle it myself. I can also walk around and do some sightseeing of California.”
Alex furrowed his brows. “I’m a little worried about you going off alone.”
“Are you afraid that I will beat someone to death?” asked Holly.
“Ugh…”
Alex couldn’t help but laugh when he thought about it. With Holly’s abilities, the risk of her encountering danger was zero to nil. In fact, one should be more worried about her ending up beating someone else to death instead.
She continued, “Don’t worry, I know how to hold myself back!”
Alex transferred one million to her account before finally rushing towards Willow Lake.
***
At Stylish Steakhouse, the environment was peaceful and calm. Two women sat by the window. One was graceful, while the other was charming.
It was Cheryl and her university classmate and best friend, Phoebe Larsen.
At this moment, Cheryl had taken off her usual white coat and was wearing a purple suit. People could tell that she had taken the time to dress up nicely, and her entire appearance could be described to be as beautiful as Aphrodite, the Greek goddess herself.
Phoebe, who had not seen her for more than a year, nearly popped her eyes out of their sockets when she saw Cheryl.
“Cheryl, you sure you said this guy isn’t your boyfriend? Look at you. The goddess who never puts on makeup or dresses up has gone all out for this guy. The envy in my heart is almost bursting out. In the five years of studying in the university together, when have you ever put on makeup for me or any man for that matter?” Unable to hide her jealousy, Phoebe couldn’t help but poke fun at her.
“Where got?” Cheryl’s face flushed, and her eyes tinged with slight embarrassment.
“You still deny it? At this rate, you might as well just engrave the words “I’m in love” on your forehead. Oh, my heart is so anxious right now. I really want to see this lucky guy right away,” Phoebe said in a huff. “He stole away our campus belle. I wonder how many male classmates will want to cry in secret. Just treating me to a steak meal today is letting him off too easily. No, he has to be slaughtered. I want to organize a class reunion so everyone can have a go together.”
Cheryl hurriedly replied, “No need, he really isn’t my boyfriend.”
