Chapter 26 We Have Reached the Summit

In the apartment, a man leaned against the partition wall that separated the balcony from the living room, smoking a cigarette.

To his left, a flowerpot housed some unidentifiable green plant that was withering, looking rather sorry for itself, which was normal considering the soil was stuffed with cigarette butts.

Hmm, it suggested that the usual inhabitant of this place was under no small amount of stress.

CEO Cheng leaned there, even able to picture Lisa in days past, just like himself, leaning on the wall, looking down at her phone while smoking.

One after another, then nonchalantly pushing the cigarette butts into the dirt of the flowerpot.

But why?

"Ha, how does this look on me? I had it tailored last time I was on a business trip to France, but I've had no chance to wear it."

Lisa was wrapped in a khaki waist-cinched dress, twirling with a laugh. Khaki, for the average girl, might seem light-stealing, making them appear duller.
