Chapter 276


    Felix wiped away the bloody mess on his face and got up with Colin’s assistance. He couldn’t take his


    eyes off Lc, who was crying while hugging Shawn.


    He didn’t shed a tear when he was beaten to a pulp, yet his eyes turned wet when he saw the woman


    he loved weep for another man.


    Felix picked himself up groggily. There was no light in his beautiful eyes.


    Looking at the despondent Felix, I only had one word to describe him- dejected.


    Suddenly, heughed as he looked at the hugging couple. His voice grew louder and louder until it


    turned maniacal. “Karma. This is karma.”


    The area before the motel was filled with his hollow and soullessughter.


    It was karma, indeed.


    When I still had feelings for him, he stomped on them. And when I gave up on him, he felt devastated.


    Now that he had decided to do Lc right, Lc tossed him aside and showed indifference toward his


    injuries.


    As usual, people took what they had for granted and only regretted it when


    it was gone.


    In my opinion, Felix’s misery today was brought on by his avarice.


    He wanted everything and was left with nothing.


    That was the punishment of greed.


    “What? She cheated on that handsome guy?“.


    “Did you hear his voice? It sounds like he has lost his mind.”


    “What’s wrong with that woman? Why would she pick the other guy over

    this cute one?”


    “Hey, open your eyes. The guy she’s holding is quite handsome too. And look at what he’s wearing.


    He’s clearly loaded.”


    Shawn was handsome and untamed. He wore branded goods and looked like a rich, eligible bachelor.


    Meanwhile, Felix had a pretty face and an air of sophistication. They would be equal in terms of


    poprity with the opposite


    sex.


    The onlooking crowd began to gossip among themselves.

    “What do we do, Colin?” I felt bad for Felix.


    Those in simr situations must have done something to bring this upon themselves. Felix had himself


    to me for what happened to him today. I did not feel sympathy for him, but I felt sorry for him


    because he was Colin’s younger brother.


    “This was bound to happen sooner orter. I’m d that it happened now because he’ll get over it


    sooner.” Colin rationalized.


    Suddenly, a BMW swerved in. A middle–aged man appeared and took Shawn into the back seat. Lc


    didn’t bat Felix an eye before entering the vehicle. Following the noise of a mmed door, the


    automobile left.


    Felix watched as the BMV slowly disappeared into the horizon. The injuries finally took their toll, and he


    passed out on the ground.


    My New Year’s Eve ended on a sour and bloody note.


    My head essory went missing, and my glow stick vanished too. In the end, Colin and I celebrated


    theing of the new year next to Felix’s bed in


    a ward.


    The next morning, I woke up on the narrow guest bed. Colin had prepared some hot water and was


    wiping Felix’s body.

    I saw dark purple spots on Felix’s attractive face. His upper lip was swollen, and there was a cut of


    around two inches in length above his right eye. One of his legs was lifted by a splint.


    It was too dark yesterday. I didn’t know he was that badly injured.


    Felix was already awake. He watched silently as Colin cleaned his body.


    There was nothing in his starry eyes. No light, no soul.


    Finding out the news himself must have shattered his heartpletely.


    Colin was right. Perhaps finding out this soon was a blessing to him. Either way, Lc and he were


    never going to have a happy ending.
