Chapter 504: Clash Between Moral and Feelings, Right and Wrong, and Heart and Mind (1/2)

Max sat down there on the floor as he got out from the spirit world.

The more he thought about it, the more conflicted he felt. But the decision was obviously made, he would save Andriel at any cost.

But, the thing was about how to deal with Lisa…

Max had got Lisa's feelings very clearly, even though she very much liked to deny it. And he honestly, had only good feelings for her….out of all the three, she had been with him for the longest. She was her fiancee and like he had said earlier...if it was a normal world...he wouldn't have any problem with the marriage with her....

”Huff!” Max sighed.

”Well, that's a pretty long sigh for a guy who was having a nice time minutes ago...”

Max raised his head to see Mr. Cool standing in front of him.

”It's a bad thing to spy on others…” Max said as he looked at him.

”Like in hell am I interested in seeing you make out when I have dozens of girls begging me for it….” Mr. Cool said with a snort.

Max shook his head, ”Don't you feel any guilt? Betraying them…”

”Woah! That's a serious allegation...I have never hidden anything from anyone...I am a man of integrity…”

”Integrity my ass….does it change anything whether they know about it or not?” Max looked at him with an odd look.

”Of course! You have to be truthful, no secrets with each other...”

Max didn't know whether to laugh or cry hearing this, ”So, you being with another woman is fair as long as you let other know?”

”In that case, her being with another man after telling you is fine as well?'' He further asked.

”No, that's cheating…” Mr.Cool replied.

”I am shocked you can say that with a straight face...aren't you being unreasonable and selfish?” Max asked as he looked at him.

”If I was that reasonable and selfless, I wouldn't have more than one woman to begin with...Besides, I am not forcing anyone to be with me…not to mention look at my face...won't I be in loss if I just let a single person have me...look at this handsome face...it will be a sin for a single girl to have me all to herself….now that I think about, won't it make me selfless rather than selfish...I am actually thinking about others rather than myself…”

Mr. Cool continued but Max didn't pay much attention to him except for her first few words.

'So, for guys it's harem...for girls it's cheating?' Max muttered inwardly, it seems he wasn't selfish enough to think there was nothing wrong with this way of thinking.

”Besides, don't lecture me when you are in no different position than mine...I heard from Lear that you have a thing going on with that blonde lady…” Mr. Cool said as he looked at Max.

Max's face turned ugly, 'Lear….'

”Don't tell me you are feeling conflicted about doing something wrong?” Mr. Cool suddenly seemed to have realised Max's thought.

”What if I am?” Max asked.

”There is no other way here...you either do it if you want to and be a jerk or don't do it at all…” Mr. Cool words were full of passion as grasped his fist and put it in front of Max.

'But, I don't have a choice…I have to be a jerk I guess...'  Max thought to himself.

”This is the cost….you have to be a scum if you really want to love more than one person. Besides, what kind of world do we live in...stop thinking about what is fair and what is not...especially when it comes to love...because, everything is fair in love and war…loving more than one person as well…”

Max shook his head, there would be no end to it if he kept listening to this narcissist.

In the end, he got up and left. As he walked downstairs, he saw Mark and Lear looking at him. Mark's gaze only lasted for a second but Lear continued to look at him with a smug look on his face.

He would deal with him later, first it was Lisa..

Max walked into the room where the three girls were and spoke, ”Lisa...we need to talk, come with me for a second…”

Lisa was taken back and a blush immediately crept up on her face looking at Max. After all, it hadn't been long since the two had been very intimate.

The two girls gave her a meaningful look as Lisa looked down and obediently followed Max behind.

The two left the place and came around another empty building before walking in.

Lisa looked around nervously wondering why Max had brought her here…

'Could it be?' She began to have weird thoughts and blushed even more furiously.

Max only felt even more troubled seeing her act like that.

”About what happened earlier….can you forget it….”

”Huh?'' Lisa blinked her eyes. She seemed to have heard something wrong.

”I don't think I can be loyal to you...It's better if you forget it and try to find someone who could be with you and will only be with you…'' Max said with a bitter heart.

In the end, it still didn't feel right to him. No matter how you put it, it was wrong to the other person...if you can't put yourself in her shoes and accept it. Then don't expect her to accept it as well.

The right option was to let go….she would find someone better…

”What are you talking about? What happened in such a short time to suddenly change your mind?” Lisa grabbed his arms as her eyes turned red.

”You don't like me anymore? Was that something you regret?” She asked as tears began to spill out of her eyes.
