"I know." Peron Cela smiled slightly and said indifferently: "What about being married? You are married, doesn't Leona still like you? So, it's good for me and for Leona, We don't care about your past and present. What we care about is your future!"
With that, Peron said very seriously: "Mr. Chris, after today's events, I have a very clear understanding of life. When people live, everything has meaning. Being wealthy means being wealthy, and being poor means being poor. If you die, no matter whether it is wealthy or poor, it will be nothing."
"If it were before today, I would never let my daughter marry a foreign man, but at this moment, these are no longer important to me. What is important is how to make my daughter happy; how can my daughter have the best life!"
"Mr. Chris has the ability, strength, and charm that a strong man should have. Leona is cultivated, has a background, is strong external and internal, and she likes you so much. I believe you must have some feelings for Leona in your heart, otherwise If you didn't, you would never travel all the way to Onal and make a special trip to Bavilon to see her, save her life, heal her injuries, and even drive several hundred Kms in the middle of the night to take her to Avonal to see me."
Chris nodded and said, "Mr. Cela, it is undeniable that Leona is indeed a very good girl, but I still said that. I'm already married."
Peron waved his hand and said: "Don't always prevaricate me by this getting married fact. You can divorce if you are married. Even if you don't leave, you can marry Leona in Onal. As long as you don't go back, there is no problem."
Chris shook his head and smiled: "Mr. Cela, I really appreciate some of the precious qualities of Miss Leona, but what you said is still impossible."
After a pause, Chris said again: "And I will not stay in Onal, today, tomorrow at the latest, I will return to Springs."
Peron smiled and said seriously: "Mr. Chris, you have an old Springsen saying that good birds choose wood and live in them. I have investigated your background. Forgive me to be honest, your current wife is not worthy of you!"
Chris looked at Peron noncommitantly, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Cela seems to have studied Springsen culture very much. Just now he could say words like ‘dug a hole deep and accumulate grain', and now there is ‘good bird'. "Choose wood and live', you seem to be a Springsen expert too!"
Cela said seriously: "When I was young, I admired Gotro Mesdac, who led the Onalen fleet to defeat the Russians in the Battle of Dumbaram. I started to follow his footsteps, read Springsen history books, and learned a lot of Springsen culture and classical literature."
Chris nodded and said with a smile: "Mr. Cela is so studious, really admirable, but I still want to make it clear to you: I will not divorce my wife! So, I just ask Mr. Cela not to Mention it again."
Chris said again: "Also, I am leaving Onal soon, so please don't mention this to Leona, so as not to have a negative impact on her."
Peron looked at Chris and said seriously: "Mr. Chris, you Springsen pay attention to the cycle of fate, you see, before tonight, it was Leona who was injured sitting in a wheelchair. The doctor also vowed to say that she might live a lifetime like that. Couldn't stand up anymore, but now?"
As Peron said, he reached out and patted his amputated knee lightly, and laughed at himself: "Now, Leona, who was declared by the doctor that it is impossible to stand up again, stands up again, but I lost my legs, so I said Ah, this life is a cycle!"
Chris frowned and said: "Mr. Cela, I don't quite understand what you mean."
Cela said with a smile: "I mean, even if you leave Onal today and swear that you will never come back again, when the wheel of fortune turns, it is likely to send you back here, even if you are unwilling. You can't help it!"
"The same is true for your wife. Even if you think you will never divorce her, the wheel of fortune may one day separate you!"
"Everything in the world is confusing and perplexing. Mr. Chris is still young and there are still decades to go in his life. Why should he speak so absolute now?"
