Chapitre 1377: Transplant

Alex took Talia to a lone section of the orphanage and broke the news that she might not have wanted to hear. 

"You are an amazing woman, Talia. Unfortunately, I can't find the two of us working at all," he lied.

Talia was a bit shocked to hear such a conclusion so early. "But we have only been on one date," Talia said. "Is it because I got captured?'

"What? No, no. It's just me," Alex said. "I just can't feel the spark between us two." That bit was certainly true. While Alex could sense that the two of them would make for a nice King and Queen, they certainly wouldn't make for a good couple.

And the sole reason for that was that Alex simply couldn't find himself being attracted to Talia. Maybe a few more days would've changed things, but he didn't want a Queen in the first place, so he let her down easily instead of taking her on multiple dates only to reject her after that.
