Chapter 399
Colin pinched my cheek affectionately but with a hint of exasperation. “Alright now, be good. Two
months will pass by quickly. Tell me what you want and I’ll bring it back for you. Queenie, during this
time, you two should stay together and take care of each other.”
“Okay, I’ll do my best to fatten her up.” Queenie hastily agreed, fearing that any dy would disappoint
Colin.
I could take care of myself even without Colin around. Besides, Queenie’s situation made it difficult for
her to even take care of herself, let alone me. Colin’s arrangement was just to give her a purpose and
help her recover quickly.
I understood this reason, and I believed Queenie did too.
After Colin dropped us off at home, he went back to the dormitory to prepare for his trip.
Queenie and I snuggled up on therge bed after showering to have a heart–to–heart talk. It had been
so long since we spoke to each other, so there were so many things that we wanted to talk about.
To help distract her, I told her about Felix’s ident and the subsequent happenings, as well as Aunt
Mel’s objection to my rtionship with Colin. Queenie’s eyes turned red in anger after I was done.
“I was wondering why you pulled yourself away from us during that time. You were so thin and your
spirits were low. I didn’t realize such a big thing had happened. Why didn’t you tell us? It must have
been so difficult for you to endure all that alone.”
“Queenie, things were indeed tough for me at the time, and I didn’t know what to do. Fortunately, Colin
was always by my side. He never once thought of giving up on our love.
“His rtionship with his family turned sour because of me. So, I’ve always been confident. about his
feelings for me. Now that everything’s over, things will get better.
“How about you? What do you think about all the things that have happened? You have to tell
me the truth
“Flynn isn’t an ordinary person. He’ll search for you after you leave, won’t he? With his background,
finding you won’t be difficult. You have to be prepared for the day hees looking for you.”
At the mention of Flynn, Queenie started to cry again.
This was unavoidable. I didn’t try to console her and just handed her a packet of tissues.

Some grievances need to be vented, or they would only make you sick,
“I want to break up with him, but we’ve been together for five years. Five years, Lulu. Those were the
best five years of my life. I gave him everything, the best that I had. But he couldn’t even promise me
one thing.
“The most ridiculous thing was that when he was apanying another woman for a prenatal check–
up, I was still asking him what he wanted for dinner. If it weren’t for that pair of mother and daughter
causing trouble at thepany, I wouldn’t even have known that he was going to be a father.
“Can you imagine how it felt to be called a home wrecker and get pped in front of more than a
hundred colleagues? At that time, I really wanted to die.
“Thest straw was when he saw me get beaten and my face covered in blood, but he just took the
assant away without even a nce at me. If he had just taken a look at me, just one look, I might
have had the courage to persevere in our rtionship.

“I didn’t know how I managed to get up from the ground and went to the hospital. I stared at my phone
the whole night, only for him to not even send me a single word.
“At dawn, I made up my mind. I wanted to break up with him. I wanted to leave him.
“The world is so big, and there are so many people in this world. I’ll surely find someone who loves me.
Even if I find someone who doesn’t love me, we can live as respectful partners. It’s much better than
being tormented by him like this.”
“It’s good if you’ve made up your mind. I’ll support your decision. If he reallyes to look for you, I’ll
help you.”
“But I’ve always had a feeling that he won’t let me go that easily.” Queenie’s worry was also my
concern. If Flynn decided to keep her by his side, the chances of her escaping would be
slim.
