Adam exited the elevator, while Sid entered it.
The elevator door closed instantly, and Adam walked out of the World Tree Tower.
Adam turned around and looked at the World Tree Tower, the corners of his mouth curling up.
In Adam's eyes, the World Tree Tower was still standing tall. However, there were many small details that seemed to be corroding the World Tree Tower and occupying it. It was as if it wanted to erode it and replace the World Tree Tower.
Adam then turned around and drove his car to Charmant.
By the time Adam arrived at Charmant, the sky had already darkened. The moon was already hanging high in the sky, and the stars were twinkling in the night sky. It was as beautiful as a poem.
Adam pushed open the door of Charmant. There were still a few customers inside tasting pastries.
"Adam, what's wrong? You look so dispirited." Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso was just coming out of the kitchen when she saw Adam pushing the door open and entering.
When Adam saw Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso, a smile appeared on his face. However, he remained silent.
When Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso saw this, she shook her head helplessly and said,""You brat, it's really the case. It was the same last time. Let's talk.”
After saying that, Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso pulled Adam to a seat in the corner.
"Tell me, what happened?”Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso crossed her arms and looked at Adam.
Adam smiled, shrugged, and sighed.
When Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso saw this, she could only sigh helplessly and say,""Child, you were like this in the past.”
"I remember that the last time you did this was a year ago. Not long after that, you told me that you were going to resign and that you seemed to have joined the World Tree Financial Group, right?”Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso seemed to be reminiscing.
"Master." Adam lowered his head when he heard this.
"No, you don't have to say that. I know your ability very well. Besides, it's common sense for people to climb higher and water flows lower. Besides, you won't be able to develop much if you stay in Charmant.”Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso smiled.
"The road of life is very long. Only you can decide your future. Only you can decide your own destiny, not be pushed forward by the torrent of fate.”Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso took a deep breath and looked at the night sky outside the window. " And all I can do is to light up a lamp for you when you're lost. I can let you see the future that I've seen before, or perhaps, I can illuminate the path ahead for you.”
"Did you run into any problems this time?”Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso looked at Adam.
Adam hesitated for a moment.
"Master, when things go against your initial beliefs, will you continue to do this?”Adam raised his head and looked into Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso's eyes.
Upon hearing this, Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso smiled and looked at the ceiling.""Adam, there will always be this and that in life, but how should I put it?”
"When something conflicts with your ideals, you can try to think about it. Do you think it's good or bad? If you think it's good, then practice it. If it's bad, then give up.”
" Once, I was as confused as you. When I was debating whether I should become a mercenary or not, I felt that my hands should be used to make pastries, not for such things. However, after thinking it through, I didn't regret it because it was a choice I had to make on my path to becoming a pastry chef.”
Adam was silent as he listened to Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso's words.
" Fortunately, I'm now a pastry chef and not a mercenary. I've fulfilled my dream, even if being a mercenary goes against my ideals and beliefs.”Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso smiled.
After a while, Adam still did not speak.
When Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso saw this, she stood up and went to bring a plate of pastries and a glass of water over.
"No matter what you're thinking or doing, you have to eat first.”Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso pushed the pastries and water in front of Adam.
When Adam saw this, he was stunned, not knowing what to say.
"Eat. No matter what, eat your fill first.”Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso turned around, her back facing Adam.
"I'll go and greet the guests first. You can eat first.”Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso went to see the customers who were tasting the pastries.
Adam raised his head, ate some pastries, drank some water, and thought about what Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso had said.
While Adam was eating and thinking, the customers in Charmant had finished their food and left. Adam was the only one left.
Of course, Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso didn't disturb Adam. Instead, she watched Adam's thoughts.
There were some things that others could only give advice and not guide the other party. If you just blindly guided the other party, the other party would lose their autonomy and could only rely on you to make decisions.
Naturally, Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso didn't close the door and leave. Instead, she continued to wait for Adam, even though Adam still had the key to Charmant.
Previously, when Adam was about to leave Charmant and return the key to Huanglian Pierre Alfonso, Huanglian Pierre Alfonso asked Adam to keep it, saying that Charmant had always welcomed him and that he could come back whenever he wanted.
At that time, Adam had cried when he heard this.
Even though it sounded very embarrassing, it was really the kind of thing that Adam could not control.
Especially with Adam's previous experience, Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso's shadow really walked over to Adam's side.
Giving the key to Charmant to someone else was not an easy task, especially for Charmant, who had the hard work of Huanglian Pierre Alfonso.
At that time, Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso had actually nurtured Adam as his successor. Because of Adam's talent in pastry at that time, Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso was prepared to recommend Adam to go to France to further his studies.
However, Adam had rejected him and wanted to leave Charmant. This was undoubtedly a betrayal to Huanglian Pierre Alfonso. However, Huanglian Pierre Alfonso still cared about Adam.
This was also the reason why Adam felt ashamed when he saw Huang Lian Pierre Alfonso when he arrived at Charmant a year ago.
However, Adam didn't regret it, because if he didn't make this choice, he might not even have the chance to survive when Heim's Underworld Forest invaded Earth.
