NovelEnglishChapter 279 When Colin left, Felix was asleep.
Bored, | scrolled on my phone on my chair. When I lifted my head, | caught Felix staring at me.
My heart sank, and | looked at the entrance reflexively. But Colin had only just left. He wouldn't be back this soon.
For sreason, | was afraid of Felix now that he was awake. He looked like he might hurtbecause there was something unfamiliar and brooding in his eyes.

“Are you that afraid of me?” asked Felix with a hoarse voice.
“Sorry, no. | was distracted.” “Lulu, do you resentfor what I've done to you?” “No, not at all. | was young and naive back then, and | did cause you a great deal of trouble. | was at fault too.
Why would | resent you? Besides, I'm over it now. So don’t let that bother you.” The corner of his lips broke into a barely perceivable smile. “Is that true?” “Yes. | don’t resent you. In fact, I'm grateful to you. If you hadn't giventhat wake-up call, | would've never noticed how sweet Colin was. | would truly be unhappy if I missed out on Colin.” His smile froze. His expression darkened, and | cowered, afraid of the vibe he was giving off.
“Do you like Colin that much?” Perhaps what | said somehow triggered him. There x an air of malice around him. I could only reply to him with simple responses for the rest of our conversation.
Now that Colin wasn’t with me, | should take great care not to ruffle Felix’'s feather.
“I have never imagined that I'd fall for Colin one day-not even before you askedto look for a boyfriend. But Colin is very sweet. And I'm falling for him more and more as tgoes by.” I told Felix what I felt.
“If I had not done what | did, would you be falling forlike you're falling for Colin now?” This was a difficult question. The scene of a handsome, flawless Felix appeared in my mind. Standing there, he belittledlike a demon.
If what happened during that Thanksgiving had not taken place, perhaps | would have continued to have a crush on him. Or | might have woken up from this delusion one day and decided to forget him.
| thought about the question and answered, “I don’t want to entertain hypothetical questions.” “I don’t know what got into me. | wanted to run away from you, and | loved Lilac. But after Lilac and | began dating, | kept thinking about you. | know that’s bad. I didn’t want to be a playboy. | didn’t want to hurt Lilac after | broke your heart.

“So | forced myself to be heartless toward you so that you'd stay away from me.” Felix looked at the IV drip and reminisced.
Honestly, | couldn't care less about the past, and | didn’t want to waste ttalking about the past with him either. However, we were the only ones in the ward. As long as it helped to soothe his temper, I'd let him ramble on and be a patient listener.
| would just take it as though | was listening to a story. There was no need to get too involved.
“And you did stay away from me. | couldn't contact you for months, and you stopped reaching out. | spent all my tand energy on Lilac, telling myself that | should love Lilac. People at Jesselton College said we were couple goals.
“But little did they know, when | was all alone at night, you appeared in my mind. | dreamed about you—the you under the tree, the you wearing a long blue dress, the you with straight, black hair, the you with the mesmerizing smile, the you who was tearing up, the you who was leavingbehind.”
