Chapter 204

    Felix was surprised to see Lc outside. He grabbed his phone and left immediately.


    I was so annoyed by Lc that I blurted out something rude, “Felix, let’s not hang out again.


    He replied with his silent silhouette. Then, he left.


    “It’s over. Finally,” said Colin as he turned to me, a ss in his hand.


    “Tsk, it already ended a long time ago. It was over when he called me shameless and asked me to stay


    away from him that Thanksgiving.”


    “So what’s your n now?”


    “I’ll make myself avable and make many friends.” I ced my palm above my brows while pretending


    to scan my surroundings. Then, my eyes lingered on Colin. “Then, I’ll settle down with someone I like


    and who likes me back.”


    Colin’s hand froze mid–raising his ss. He turned to face me, his eyes glimmering. Then, with a


    smile, he said, “Sure.”


    Oh, that smile. That lethal smile! My heart skipped a beat.


    Colin was hired by Jesselton College to be a lecturer. It was his first day, so he was too busy to hang


    out with me after lunch.


    I was bored in the evening. After dinner, I went to take a stroll in the corridor of the tiny jungle my


    college had.


    When I first came, I thought that it looked so much like the baby rose corridor near the post- grad


    faculty of Lincoln University. I would visit it from time to time, and it slowly became a habit of mine.


    Now, I would feel like something was amiss if I did note to the corridor once per day.


    Suffice to say, I was a loyal person. Once I fell in love with something, it’dst for an eternity.


    Felix was a pivotal person in my life. Looking back, I realized my feelings for him weren’t love. It was


    just the obedience andpliance a daughter had for her parents. Or perhaps it was an adolescent


    girl’s yearning for a beautiful story.


    It’d be too difficult to describe what happened back then. I couldn’t recall what I had felt either. I had


    suffered, I had cried, and I had tried to make Felix stay. But they were all in the

    past now, and I regretted nothing.


    After half an hour, I decided to go home. Suddenly, Felix appeared. He looked like he had been waiting


    for me.


    Due to the pain he and Lc had caused me, I was now traumatized. Seeing one of them would sour


    my mood and give me a headache.


    I hadn’t seen them for a very long time, and I thought peace had returned. s, I ran into them at noon.


    And I ran to Felix again in the evening. What a nuisance!


    Not wanting to deal with him, I turned around and went toward where I came from.


    Since Felix was very tall, he easily caught up to me with his long legs. Then, he positioned himself


    before me. “Lulu, you’re avoiding me.”


    Seriously? Wasn’t it obvious? Did he have to say that?

    “I’ve said this many times before, so please burn it into your memory. You brought Matthew to me, and


    for that, I owe you a favor. I can’t repay you with anything yet, but I’ll return the favor one day. You have


    my word.


    “From now on, let’s not hang out again. Even if we run into each other on the street, let’s pretend we’re


    strangers, okay?”


    “Why? You used to follow me around when you were little. Why are you avoiding me now?”


    “You’ve said it yourself, it was in the past. I had to apologize to you in front of our families for what I’ve


    done. What else do you want from me?


    “I’m trying to avoid you, so please stop bothering me. It’s annoying,” I yelled.


    I couldn’t contain the rage and frustration inside me.
