Chapter 679
Thalassa heaved a sigh, playing to Bruce’s emotional side, a trick he was a master of,
“I wasn’t really mad,” she said. “My mom is right. After all, you are my father, that’s a bond that can’t be changed. I used to hate you, but these past few days my mom has told me a lot of good things about you. You’ve been in love with her for so many years and it hasn’t been easy. There’s no need for me to keep hating you. Us getting closer would make my mom happy.”
“Absolutely, your mom is right,” Bruce hastily agreed as he rubbed his hand.
Thalassa noticed his habit. It seemed like whenever he was trying to gain someone’s favor, he would always be rubbing his hands.
Thalassa glanced at his hands before looking back at him, “I found a perfect place for a day trip; it could also help us strengthen our father- daughter relationship. Everyone who’s been there has nothing but praises for it, because it requires mutual help and trust. It’s a way to show your true intentions.”
“I truly care about you and your mom,” Bruce said anxiously, eager to prove his sincerity.
Seeing his desperate demeanor, Thalassa couldn’t help but sneer inwardly.
He was just afraid of losing his two billion, that’s all.

“I want to believe you,” Thalassa continued. “I took the day off today and you’re free as well, why don’t we go on that trip today? We can see if you’re really as caring and helpful as you claim to be.”
Without a second thought, Bruce agreed, “Sure, let’s do it today.”
He thought, what’s the big deal? Just being attentive, asking if she’s tired, or thirsty, or hungry.
No one could play this sweet-talk game better than him.
Without delay, Thalassa and Bruce hopped into a cab and headed towards Starhaven’s Phoenix Mountain.
Phoenix Mountain was a challenging terrain with steep cliffs and rugged trails. A careless step could lead to a twisted ankle or a fall into one of the many perilous caves.
It was generally a popular choice among adventure-seekers.
During the trip, people got to help each other to the mountain top, get down, and then go home to make a smooth sailing.
Bruce looked at the daunting mountain and hesitated. But in order to prove his love for Thalassa, he gritted his teeth and followed her up the mountain.
Halfway up, Bruce was already exhausted. He was not fond of hiking and the steep trails required him to tread carefully and exert a lot of effort with each
step.
“I can’t go any further, Thalassa. If I take another step, I think my legs might give out,” Bruce wheezed and gasped..

Thalassa sat on the ground, feeling equally exhausted, “I can’t go on either. We can’t go back down now. My legs are numb so I can’t walk.”
Bruce pointed at a nearby zip line and suggested, “Why don’t we take the zip line down? It’ll save us the walk.”

“Well…” Bruce’s eyes flickered uncertainly.
“I’ll send you down first, then I’ll wait for the next person to help me down.” Thalassa suggested as she stood up and walked over to Bruce.
“But how can I leave you here alone?” Bruce asked, feeling uneasy.
“Who made you my father? How can I bear to leave you here?” Thalassa said, almost gagging on her own words. It was the most insincere thing she had ever said.
“No, I’ll send you down first. I can wait for the next person.” Bruce insisted, trying to prove his fatherly love.
“I saw a few people coming up behind us. It’ll be fine and I can wait. It’s almost dark, and there are rumors of wild monkeys attacking people at night. You better go down first. Don’t waste any more time.” Thalassa urged.
Bruce didn’t argue anymore; wild monkey was the most horrible animals for him.
The zip line was a simple steel wire connecting the halfway point of the mountain to the bottom. On the zip line, people would sit on a belt-size safety harness and fetch some ropes to protect themselves.
After Bruce was secured in the harness, Thalassa held onto the control handle and slowly lowered him down the mountain.
Once Bruce was dangling mid-air, Thalassa suddenly stopped. Her expression turned aloof as she asked, “Bruce, where did you put the rest money?”
