Chapter 645 It seemed... William had a point

When they arrived at the entrance of the Isle Palace of Delightful Love, although the chains on Adonis had been removed, he was still chopping wood like a guardian deity.

"Still chopping wood, Adonis? Don't you plan to do something else?" William and Adonis were old acquaintances, and William had previously teased him for being whipped.

Adonis gave William a cold look and said, "I'm used to it."

"Then keep at it!" William merely greeted him politely and then proceeded towards the Isle Palace of Delightful Love.

"What are you doing?" Adonis called out to him as he saw William heading inside.

"Going in!" William raised his eyebrows.

The man wasn't blind, asking such a silly question.

Did chopping wood make him dumb?

"I mean, what are you going in there for?" Adonis eyed William warily.

William couldn't help but stop and laughed, "You sure are nosy. Just keep chopping your tree!"

"You're not still thinking about Aphrodite, are you?" In Adonis's eyes, William was a player.

Flirting around with women and then not taking responsibility.

Just as William thought Adonis was whipped, Adonis saw William as a player.

"You're not the one thinking about Aphrodite, are you?" William chuckled. "Even though you're no longer chained, you stand there chopping wood shirtless at her doorstep every day. Do you think showing off those muscles will make Aphrodite notice you?"

Adonis was left speechless by the comment, stuttering for a while before glaring and saying, "Don't spout nonsense here!"

William, after all, has lived for so many years and has been with women, not ten thousand, then at least over nine thousand. Although he is also a boy who is slow in matters of love.

But William clearly hit the mark with Adonis's thoughts..

"It seems I guessed right!" William laughed. "Love between a man and a woman is natural. You clearly have feelings, yet you don't even have the courage to admit it. With that attitude, you're destined to be single forever!"

Adonis had been chopping wood at the entrance of the Isle Palace of Delightful Love for years. He had loved Aphrodite's sister in vain, but Aphrodite's sister had passed away long ago.

Now, he often saw the beautiful and enchanting Aphrodite.

The title of the first beauty in the Divine Realm was not undeserved.

If Adonis wasn't moved, that would be the real wonder.

William's words were straightforward, and after a string of rebukes, Adonis was left speechless.

It wasn't until William continued walking towards the Isle Palace of Delightful Love, ignoring him, that Adonis finally mustered the courage to shout, "If you want to lay a hand on Aphrodite, you'll have to step over my dead body."

William looked back at him and laughed, saying, "Walking in directly or stepping over your dead body makes no difference to me, and you should be well aware of this."

Adonis was truly stunned by William's words.

Indeed!

William smacked Forseti on the head, scolding, "What, has your primal instinct taken over?"

It was just like a lion courting – using brute force to conquer the other party.

Such vulgar behavior!

...

Forseti held his head, bewildered, muttering, "Can't I do that?"

William ignored Forseti, his eyes narrowing slightly as he looked at Aphrodite, saying, "Aphrodite, do you think I'm easy to bully?"

Aphrodite tilted her head and smiled, "How could Uncle William feel that way?"

William snorted with laughter and said, "Then do you believe that if I say you have to marry someone, you must marry them?"

Aphrodite shook her head, still smiling, and replied softly, "I don't believe!"

Suddenly, Uranus, dressed in a suit, appeared before William.

"William, what are you doing? I'm about to be late for work!" Uranus glanced at his watch and added, "Time's almost up. What's up?"

Going to work...

Alright then!

Uranus, in his attire, seemed like a white-collar worker, apparently finding his pleasure on Earth.

Lost in the moment.

William stated, "I called you to discuss Aphrodite's marriage!"

"Marriage?" Uranus was taken aback and asked, "You've taken a fancy to Aphrodite again? Well, that's fine! Go ahead and get married!"

"Father!" Aphrodite protested loudly, "What are you talking about? I will not marry anyone else!"

Uranus turned back, looking affectionately at Aphrodite, and said, "It's alright, Aphrodite, you don't have to care about age differences. Love is free nowadays. If you like your Uncle William, I won't object!"

"Who likes him?" Aphrodite almost couldn't help but throw a punch at Uranus. Is this really her father's attitude?

Is he insane?

William hurriedly interjected, "Not me, Forseti. I'm here to arrange a marriage for him!"

Only then did Uranus realize, and putting aside whether he was going to work or not, he scrutinized Forseti and said, "This... Forseti, I know him, but..."

After hesitating, he asked Aphrodite, "Do you like him?"

Aphrodite coldly responded, "I do not."

"That makes it difficult!" Uranus gave an awkward smile and laughed it off.

William's smile grew wider as he stared at Uranus and said, "What if I insist she marries Forseti?"
