Chapter 65


    Regardless of our unpleasant past, Felix and I had grown up together.


    I couldn’t help but feel sorry for him.


    But what went around came around, and Felix had brought this situation upon himself.


    He was reaping the consequences of his actions.


    I went as far as inviting Colin for pizza to discuss whether or not to inform Felix about the situation.


    Colin and I sat across from each other at the campus food street’s most popr pizzeria, with two


    piping


    -hot pizzas between us.


    “Colin, do you think we should tell Felix?”


    This was the heart of my dilemma.


    He furrowed his brows and looked at me, his deep ck eyes resembling dark gemstones. “Are you


    close to Lc?”


    “Sort of, I believe?”


    “Do you still have feelings for Felix?”


    “No, I’ve kicked him out of my world. He’s nothing to me now.”

    “Then why are you so conflicted? Are you just bored? Why not focus on your painting instead?” Colin


    asked sternly, like a disappointed mentor.


    I gritted my teeth and remained silent. I only sought his advice, not to be lectured or questioned.


    After all, Felix was his brother.


    It was fine if he wasn’t aware of the situation, but it didn’t sit well with me that he knew and was simply


    indifferent about it.


    “It’s about helping others. Put yourself in their shoes, Colin. If it were you, would you rather live in


    blissful ignorance of being cheated on or face the truth and deal with it ordingly?”


    Colin’s striking face darkened at my words, and he yfully tapped my head with a tissue box. “Don’t


    talk nonsense. I won’t be cheated on. Stop jinxing me, or I might have to teach you a lesson.”

    “I’m not talking about you being cheated on! I’m Just using a hypothetical scenario. Don’t take it


    personally.”


    “No more hypothetical scenarios.”


    “Fine, no more scenarios. Just answer this. Should we keep this a secret or reveal it?”


    Colin put down the tissue box, thought deeply for a moment, and then said, “He’s blind. He mistook


    trash


    for treasure, and he deserves it.”


    “But…” I couldn’t understand Colin’s perspective.


    Could the bond between brothers be so superficial that he could witness his own brother getting


    cheated without any emotional response? It almost appeared as if he was eagerly anticipating a show.


    “There’s not

    “He’spletely blinded at the moment and won’t even heed my parents‘ advice. How could he trust


    us? He might even be suspicious of our help and ruin our rtionship in the process,” Colin exined.


    What he said made sense, but something still didn’t feel right.


    Considering our strained rtionship over the past few years, it was unlikely that Felix would ce his


    trust in me. He might even perceive my intentions as an attempt to meddle in his rtionship with Lc.


    I had to temporarily abandon my naive idea of revealing the truth.


    However, for the sake of our shared past, I still felt the need to give him a subtle hint. Whether he


    would take it or not was up to him.


    That night, I spent a long time crafting a message to Felix, suggesting he should video call Lc more


    often. After all, no one could rece a boyfriend’s undivided attention.


    Felix was taken aback by my unexpected message and responded with a series of trivial topics.


    Did he really think I was in the mood for idle chit–chat after all that had happened?
