Chapter 212 The Final Farewell
Chapter 212 The Final Farewell
As a perfect gentleman, Kirs smiled as naturally as usual.
"You can't say that. Ceres, do you remember? You and I have also contributed a lot to this chip."
Ceres did not expect Kirs to be so brazen!
"You are indeed a thief. It takes Johny three years to develop it. Compared with him, we did nothing but
provide some ideas."
Johny and his team spent three years developing this chip. Even if Ceres and Kirs had participated in
it, their contributions paled when compared with Johny's.
Kirs disagreed. "Do you know? Johny didn't release the robot because it has no mind, but you
managed it. And I am the one who finished the data, so it belonged to me."
Ceres shook her head and was shocked that he was so greedy and shameless! Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"Kirs, you are an expert in artificial intelligence, so you know how long a project usually takes! Save the
excuses. You want to steal it. It doesn't belong to you at all!"
"Well, you're right! I want to steal it. So what?"
Kirs' face darkened. "He took my beloved away from me, so I will steal his chip. This is very fair!"
Ceres was even more incredulous. "No, Kirs, you are not so unreasonable."
Kirs was frustrated. He lowered his head. "Well, Ceres, I don't want to argue with you. If Johny wants to
hold me responsible, so be it. I am willing to compensate and apologize. However, Ceres, do you know
I have had a crush on you these years?"
His words reminded Ceres of her intention to be here.
Her face darkened. "Kirs, I'm here to make things clear with you. I know you love me while you know
I'm playing dumb."
Kirs was so smart that he had long known it.
However, he insisted that she would stop playing dumb and be moved one day.
"I have always regarded you as my brother. You know what happened to me and always take good
care of me, so no one can replace you."
Hearing this, Kirs was in despair.
He had done so much for her. To move her, he even gave up a lot of chances.
Nonetheless, she loved Johny.
"Hence, you still love Johny and will return to him, right?"
Ceres nodded. "Yes, I will stay with him. I thought I hated him, but after so many things, I realize I still
love him. Besides, we've cleared the air."
She said in a soft voice, for fear of hurting him.
Nevertheless, Kirs was almost dead inside.
In the end, his beloved girl would leave him alone.
"Kirs, you are an outstanding man. Now that you are the president of the Cosmos Group, you will be
popular among women. You will find a woman better than me."
Ceres did not know how to comfort him. After they finished the conversation, he might never talk to her
again.
There was a sad and awkward silence.
When Ceres finished speaking, Kirs remained silent.
Thus, she continued, "Kirs, I will not tell Johny about this. I will tell him that I stole the chip and gave it
to you. You can take the chip away and no one will mention it again."
"However, you'd better stop using the data in the chip, lest Johny should notice it and investigate it."
Kirs was far-sighted, so he revised only a little data when developing this chip.
"Anyway, it is disgraceful to steal it. Maybe you just wanted to save the Cosmos Group. In short, it is all
over."
"Yes, it's all over." His voice was very soft.
Ceres did not quite understand what he was referring to.
Kirs raised his head and smiled brightly at her. "Ceres, we're still friends and you will continue to think
of me as your brother, right?"
Ceres was very surprised when she heard this. She did hope so.
Since she was very young, Kirs had been very nice to her. When she was kidnapped, Kirs risked his
life to save her and began to take care of her mother and her.
Given a choice, she would rather that he had never fallen in love with her.
"Of course! Kirs..."
"No," Kirs shook his head and said, "I don't want that."
Ceres' smile froze.
"Ceres, a woman can only have one knight in her life. Now that you've chosen Johny, we should say
goodbye to each other. Hence, from today on, we have nothing to do with each other."
Kirs said with a smile on his face. Seeing this, Ceres felt a little sorry for him.
She didn't want to part with him.
However, on second thought, she knew they should no longer meet each other. Otherwise, both of
them would be embarrassed.
"Well, Kirs, if you don't want to see me, I won't contact you anymore. Goodbye."
With tears in his eyes, Kirs opened his arms. "Ceres, can you give me a hug? It's the last hug."
His expectant expression ripped Ceres up inside.
She had never seen Kirs so dispirited.
She felt that she probably had done something wrong. She should have made it clear with him earlier.
"No problem." Ceres walked to him and hugged him gently.
"Kirs, I'm sorry. We're not destined for each other."
Kirs sneered, "Ceres, do you know? I don't believe in destiny. Everything depends on ourselves."
"What do you mean?"
"Nothing. It doesn't matter."
...
In Royal Hotel.
An unprecedented press conference was being held here, and the media were all waiting for the scoop.
The conference was about Alice, who was an unknown star, and Bill, who was the president of Glory
Entertainment.
A few days ago, rumors about them spread everywhere and it was even rumored that Alice was
pregnant with Bill's child.
In order not to be sacked, Alice had no choice but to beg Bill to hold a press conference and clarify that
she had nothing to do with him.
