NovelEnglishChapter 205
With his unchanging gentle demeanor, Finn emitted a calm and pleasant air that could put people at ease.
Dexter, on the other hand, was the complete opposite. He was wearing a black jacket, black cargo pants, and
black hiking boots.
As he was clad entirely in black, he appeared brooding and intimidating, especially when he wasn't speaking or
smiling-he looked like he was ready to pick a fight at any moment.
"What's the matter? Are you hoping I'll hurry up and divorce her so that you can take my place?" Dexter broke
his silence after a pause, speaking with biting
sarcasm.
Finn scoffed. "Whether you divorce her or not makes no difference to me. My feelings for her aren't something
you can compare to."
"Oh?" Dexter smirked. "Does she know that you're that infatuated with her? Is she okay with that? Or are you
just deluding yourself while she doesn't care about you at all?"
It was unlike Dexter to talk this much, especially with someone he didn't care for. But today, he was unusually
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttalkative, even if his words were rather unpleasant.
Finn, however, remained unruffled. His gaze softened as it fell on Angela's slender and graceful figure up ahead.
"Even if she doesn't likenow, it doesn't change the fact that I'm a special friend to her. Until she falls for me,
| can still remain her close friend, silently looking out for her, unlike you, who always makes her angry."
With that, Finn quickened his pace to catch up with Angela and the others.
"You okay? Needto carry you for a bit?" Joanne asked Angela.
The group had been walking for over an hour, and Angela was the weakest among them. By now, she was
drenched in sweat and panting heavily.
She waved her hand weakly. "No need. Let's take a break and drink swater to replenish our energy."
With that, she sat down on a large rock, propping her hands on her knees and gasping for air.
"You need to work on your stamina." Joanne, blunt as usual, gave her a sharp assessment before
concluding, "Starting tomorrow, an extra 20 minutes of carwill be added to your daily training."

Angela was in disbelief. Why did Joanne have to deliver a fatal blow at her weakest moment?
She decided not to rest anymore. Standing up, she announced, "I can do this!"
"Don't be reckless. Eat something first." Stopping her, Joanne handed her an energy bar.
Showing no signs of holding back, Angela tore open the wrapper and stuffed the energy bar into her mouth. Out
of the corner of her eye, she noticed Dexter smirking at her with an expression she couldonly describe as
mocking.
She ignored him since he was never pleasant to anyone anyway, and she was no exception.
After another hour or so, the group finally reached the mountaintop.
A gentle breeze blew through, and the rustling of leaves around them brought an indescribable sense of comfort.
This mountain
was also known as
Cat Mountain because wild cats
often roamed there. As soon as
Angela sat down, she saw a sleek
tabby cat dart out from the bushes,
circling around her legs and
meowing as if begging for food.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Here. You can feed it this." Finn pulled out two sausages from his bag, tore open
the wrappers, and handed them to Angela.
Angela accepted them with a smile, her gaze softening.
She thought of Mitsy, whose temperament was especially gentle. Whenever she returned home, the little cat
would climb onto her lap obediently, tilt its head, and ask for pets.
This cat, however, had long, narrow pupils, making it seem more like a little king of the mountain that should not
be messed with.
As such, Angela only dared to feed it; she had no intention of petting it.
