Chapter 253


    “I don’t believe it. You must be lying to me. He couldn’t have done so much for you. It’s impossible!


    You’re lying, you’re all lying to me.” Felix staggered, his frail body shivering in the wind as if he would


    fall at any moment.


    I didn’t want to believe it, but his eyes were filled with profound pain.


    Such pain couldn’t be faked.


    Suddenly, I wanted to believe that he really liked me.


    Unfortunately, his affection came far toote.


    “Felix, there was never anything between us. Now, you have Lc, and you’ve promised to be with her.


    Focus your thoughts on her; don’t waste them on someone irrelevant like me.


    “Felix, for the sake of our childhood years, let me remind you onest time. We’ll never be able to


    return to the past, so cherish the present.”


    We had attracted quite a crowd of onlookers watching from a distance. I didn’t want to be the


    center of gossip again, so I turned to leave quickly.


    I didn’t know what Felix’s expression was. I only heard his cries behind me. “Lulu,e


    back. Don’t leave me, please!”


    His plea was filled with a despair akin to facing death.


    I turned back.


    Felix’s tall, lean body staggered unsteadily as he clutched his chest hard. His eyes were brimming with


    scalding tears, his once radiant lips trembling. His whole being emanated


    sadness.


    It made me recall the past.


    That Thanksgiving during my senior year of high school, I experienced devastating torture that was just


    as painful.


    It was me five years ago.


    It became him five yearster.


    This damned love, why did it leave so much regret, always bringing people to the point of


    powerlessness?

    Tears fell unwittingly for Felix’s bted affection, as well as for the pain and regrets that couldn’t be


    mended.


    If he had given me a sliver of hope back then, things wouldn’t havee to this situation today.


    Back then, I endured the pain and tried to let him go.


    Now, he regretted it and wanted me to open my heart to him again.


    But I no longer knew whether there was still room to amodate him if I opened my heart again.


    Did Felix, who let his feelings waver between two women, still deserve my affection?


    Times had changed, and the past couldn’t be revisited.


    There was no turning back.


    “Felix, it’s all in the past. Don’t be like this. Move on with Lc,” I cried silently. I was like a wildflower


    battered by wind and rain, unable to find my direction.


    Felix finally cried out loud, extending a hand toward me. “What about you, Lulu? Are you willing to


    come back to me? I love you, I truly do.


    “I promise to stay with you forever, never to betray you, and to give you my all. I can do anything as


    long as youe back to me. Will you?”


    Tears streamed down my face.


    I didn’t know. I really didn’t.


    My heart ached intensely. Something was pulling at me. Memories of our moments from our youth


    appeared before my eyes.


    He was my first love, and I had vowed to marry him.


    I thought that after such a tragedy, I’d never shed another tear for him, nor would my heart be in pain


    for him.


    But when he said he loved me in agony, I inevitably cried again.


    Suddenly, I was unsure of my feelings.


    Who was the person I loved? Was it Colin, who had cherished me for over 20 years, or Felix, whom I


    had vowed to marry?
