Justin went home while Nora was waiting for Trueman.

By the time she was done talking to Trueman and got back home, she found that Alexander

had already gone to bed. When she was about to return to her bedroom, she noticed the

lights on the balcony.

She walked over to find Justin and Cherry conversing on the balcony.

Cherry, who was now ten years old, was going through a growth spurt, so she was thin and

skinny. However, her cheeks were round and plump with collagen, and her almond-shaped

eyes were identical to Nora’s. Together with her double eyelids, narrow at the inner tips and

wide at the outer, she was so pretty and looked so delicate that it was as if she was not of

this world.

Plenty of directors and scouts from film and television companies had noticed her when they

visited the school during the past few years. On many occasions, they had asked the

teachers to contact her parents on their behalf in hopes of having her debut as a child

actress. After all, given her good looks, she would undoubtedly gain immense popularity if

she took on the role of the younger version of a female lead.

However, both Nora and Justin had declined the offers after consulting her for her opinion.

Their daughter’s only interest was gaming; she didn’t have much interest in anything else.

Cherry was currently wearing a set of white pajamas. She looked a little down as she sat on the furry rug with her

head lowered.

Justin stayed by her side quietly as his large hand gently stroked his daughter’s hair.

Nora didn’t go over to disturb the pair.

When she was about to return to the room to take a bath and rest for the night, she suddenly heard Cherry ask,

“Am I really that lousy, Daddy?”

Justin’s voice turned cold at once. “Don’t listen to that teacher’s nonsense!”

Justin was a reticent man, but whenever he spoke with Cherry, he would be more patient than usual. He looked at

Cherry quietly and said, “Grades are not the only criterion to assess a person. Besides, you are not incapable of

studying; you just don’t want to.”

Cherry sighed.

Justin kept quiet for a moment before he suddenly asked, “Cherry, can you tell me why you don’t want to study?”

“It’s boring.”

Cherry looked up. Her big, clearly-defined eyes were fixed on Justin as she added, “I don’t know what the purpose

of studying is, that’s all.”

Justin was taken aback.

Cherry said, “I play games to win and to lead the team to victory, but what about studying?

What do I do it for?

“Daddy, some people study hard because they want to make a lot of money when they grow

up; some people do it because they want to be government officials; some people do it

because they want to become astronauts; and some people do it because they want to

become doctors. But… I don’t know what I want to do.”

She sounded lost as she said, “Apart from games, I haven’t found anything that interests

me. I asked my classmates about it too—some of them want to make lots and lots of money

so that they can spend extravagantly and buy whatever they want. But if it is for the sake of

making money, then not only is Daddy already so rich, but Grandaunt Queenie’s assets will

also be mine in the future. I’m already so rich that I can’t even spend all that money my

whole life. Why should I still work hard to make money?

“Pete’s goal is to turn the Hunt Corporation into a business empire. Money is no more than

numbers to him; what he enjoys is the process. Xander wants to become a doctor and find a

way to replace a person’s head with another, so he also needs vast amounts of knowledge to

realize his goal. But I’m different! I just want to play games for now, and I can still do that

even if I don’t study! So, why should I study? Am I supposed to do it just so others pay me a

few compliments?”

Justin fell silent when he heard her.

Cherry turned to look at him and waited quietly for his answer.
