Chapter 569: Chapter 568: Going to Japan

In the unfamiliar suite, Cherish Turner would always wake up early. As she turned her head, she saw him sleeping beside her, his handsome face childishly innocent, with furrowed brows. She had always admitted that this man must have been favored by God to look this good. But suddenly it occurred to her that they seemed to have never taken a photo together.

As William’s brows furrowed in his sleep, Cherish was startled and quickly fled into the bathroom. When she finished washing and opened the glass door, she saw him leaning against the doorway, bare-chested and gazing at her. He walked towards her, playfully embracing her, and reentered the bathroom, "Why didn’t you wake me up?"

"I couldn’t bear to wake you when you were sleeping so soundly," Cherish whispered, squeezing toothpaste for him and pouring water into a glass.

However, William was slightly taken aback, finding the statement oddly familiar.

"Brush your teeth." She handed the toothbrush and the glass to him, and William took them with a muted response.

They had breakfast at the hotel restaurant before going for a walk in a bustling market nearby. Cherish could only speak a few simple Japanese phrases, whereas William was multilingual, fluent in English, French, and Japanese. The variety of small shops was dazzling, especially those cute little trinkets, with the Hello Kitty keychains being Cherish’s favorite.

Cherish purposely picked a pink and a blue Kitty, one for herself and one for him. However, he was more than reluctant to take it, bluntly replying, "That’s for you girls to like."

Cherish thought about it and agreed that it would look odd for him, a grown man, to carry such a trinket.

There was a photo booth up ahead, with a few girls waiting in line.

"William, can we go take pictures too?" Cherish asked, holding his hand.

"No." William coldly uttered those two words, and the smile on Cherish’s face instantly faded. Noticing her unhappiness, he tightened his gaze and said nothing, only grabbing her hand and joining the end of the queue.

"If you don’t like taking pictures, you don’t have to," Cherish whispered, but he didn’t respond.

While taking the photo booth pictures together, Cherish was exceptionally radiant, whereas William still maintained his cold expression. He seemed to dislike posing for photos. After the session, as Cherish went to buy ice cream, William took the pictures from her and waited. Watching her walk away, he lowered his head and gazed at the set of photo booth prints.

"William, do you want me to share some with you?"

"No."

"Oh, then I’ll keep them all." Cherish didn’t get upset and carefully put the photos away.

In the afternoon, they ventured towards the private inn in Shizuoka.

Cherish still remembered that inn very clearly. It was the first time she had observed Mount Fuji from such close quarters. Sitting in this tea room once again, she felt a surreal sensation, as if it were in a distant past.

The majestic, sacred peak of Mount Fuji loomed before her.

"This is Mount Fuji, a dormant volcano straddling Shizuoka and Yamanashi prefectures, located southwest of Tokyo..." The tour guide’s spiel was the same as ever, followed by picking out snacks. Cherish hadn’t gone to choose some last time, but this time she did it herself. She selected a few delicate treats, tried one, but ate only a single bite.

William pushed the snacks in front of him towards her and said in a deep voice, "Why are you eating so little?"

"Well, I haven’t had much of an appetite lately," Cherish replied with a smile. William, however, picked up a piece of pastry and held it up near her mouth. Hesitating for a moment, she opened her mouth and bit down.
