Chapter 32
"Two months ago, on the day of your funeral."
Before I returned to Bryxton, I never thought about going against Nichs. However, he deliberately
used the Felix Family to attack the Norman Family. He knew I would not allow the Norman and Felix
families infight and would definitely take the Felix Family back. He even didn''t ept the share transfer
agreement. He seemed to be deliberately returning the Felix Family to me.
The Forger Family had tried to take over the Felix Family for years; however, they gave up when it was
within reach.
What is Nichs'' purpose in doing this?
I was bewildered, so I shook my head and stopped thinking about this. I got out of the car with the keys
and went back to the vi. When I got to the living room, I saw the apricot scarf I put on the sofast
night.
A few months ago, he removed the apricot scarf from his neck and wrapped it around me under the
snowy sky. His gesture was familiar and tender. After that, he gifted this scarf to me after taking me
home.
I hurriedly ran back upstairs to look at him downstairs. Under the street light, I could see his eyes were
soft and cold. Now that I think about it, it was the saddest scene because of our distance.
Physically, we were apart by only ten meters.
I was upstairs and he was downstairs.
However, we seemed too far away mentally.
I desperately longed for him, and the longing was killing me.
However, I couldn''t get close to his heart.
Moreover, he was the actual man that I had a crush on.
He was Christopher, the man I missed in my heart.
I walked over and picked up this apricot scarf to hold it in my arms. I left it on the snowman once, but
Christopher took it back. After some adventures, it returned to me again.
I lowered my head to smell the scent on the scarf, and it was a refreshing scent.
It was Christopher''s unique charm.
I gradually smiled and whispered, "Christopher."
It was a name that was unfamiliar to me.
…
I had been sleeping at home during the day, and I just woke up at night and took some medicine when I
received a call from Olivia.
She invited me for dinner, but I refused with a soft voice. "I''m sorry, I have something to do here."
She reluctantly invited me again, "My brother asked me to properly thank you."
I sat beside the bed for a while and hesitated to ask, "Will your brothere too?"
"Yes, he said he wanted to thank you."
I looked up at the scenery outside the window. It was March and spring, but it had started to snow
again.
I bit my lip and still refused. "I''m sorry, Ms. Parker. I have a personal matter to attend to. Besides, I
didn''t help much yesterday. You don''t need to thank me."
I wasn''t convinced, so Olivia hung up the call in disappointment.

After that, I logged into WhatsApp and saw my assistant''s message.
He said, ''President Felix, President Forger announced in ourpany that he will withdraw from the
Felix Family and will not return to thepany starting tomorrow. Every responsibility of the affairs in
thepany will transfer to you, including our suppression to the Norman Family.''
I was surprised. Why did Nichs quit?
Moreover, it was right after I called Mr. Wright.
Did he notice something?
At that, I called Mr. Wright again.
I frowned and asked him, "Did you let Nichs know about our conversation earlier?"
"If you withdraw the share transfer agreement, Mr. Forger has the right to know."
After a pause, Mr. Wright said, "I''m sorry, he actually asked me about this earlier."
After I hung up the call, I messaged Gary. ''Cancel the suppression of the Normal Family.''
He messaged back. ''Understood, but you have to sign on the document to make it final.''
I replied, ''I''ll be at thepanyter.''
It was only 6.00 PM, so thepany hadn''t closed.
I put down my phone and went to the bathroom for a shower. After that, I dried my hair and put on
delicate makeup. I also applied brown eyeshadow that had a pearlescent color to make my eyes look
prettier.
After hesitating for a long time, I used the pen to draw a small star around the corner of my eye.
I opened the closet, picked out fairy-like clothes, and styled my hair into loose twin braids. Looking at
myself in the mirror, I slowly smiled and said, "I never tried this style before."
I used to style myself as a mature and stable woman and rarely dressed so daintily.
I went over to the door and changed into a pair of white sneakers. Then, I took the car keys and went to
the garage to pick out a low-key ck sports car to go to thepany. When I arrived, I saw Gary was
waiting for me on thepany''s first floor.
I handed the car keys to him and asked, "Have you resolved Maria''s case?"
Gary took the car key from my hand and nodded. "I have resolved the case in the police station.
However, the nonsense… President Felix, I need to show you a viral video online."
He handed me a phone. After taking a look, I gave it back to him.
I said disdainfully, "That''s the only trick she has up her sleeve."
The content of the video was about the confrontationst night, where I was holding Maria''s arm.
Then, I let go of her, and she fell to the ground alone.
From that angle, it looked like I was the assant.
I guessed correctly; someone really secretly took a videost night.
It was easy to read her tricks.
Gary exined, "It is a dirty trick; however, the number of retweets exceeded one million, and the
comment section is trying to cancel you. They demand an apology from you. So far, it has affected the
Felix Family''s stocks."
I suddenly called out to him, "Gary."
He respectfully asked, "Yes, President Felix?"
"I will use the Felix Family''s official webpage to respond to this case."
He asked, "What do you want to post about?"
"I did it. So what?"
Upon hearing that, he asked in astonishment, "Do you really have to do so?"
There were always ones that did not know their actual value and kept ying dirty tricks.
Maria thought this would hit me hard and affect the Felix Family''s stocks.
Then, she na?vely thought she could threaten me with the petty trick.
She thought I would be forced to apologize to her because of the false news.
Hmph! What a joke.
She was like a cockroach. It wouldn''t hit or bite you; it just appeared near your feet to disgust you.
Without hesitating, I ordered, "Do as I say."
"Yes, President Felix."
After returning to thepany, I signed the contract to cancel the Felix Family''s suppression of the
Norman Family. I decided to favor the Norman Family with thepany''s business. The cooperation
between the top enterprises in the two cities would be beneficial.
After all, the rtionship between the Norman Family and the Felix Family had always been
exceptional.
My rtionship with ir was enough to maintain this cooperation.
Then, I made another critical decision.
The Felix Family would take 5% of the assets to research science and technology.
No one objected because I was the only shareholder in the Felix Family.
However, Gary was worried. "President Felix, this investment is huge, but the current return is almost
zero. It is not a short-term tug of war; it will take many years to see the results."
I smiled to reassure him and said, "It''s okay because it''s time for the Felix Family to create a new path."
In the past, the Felix Family made a name by selling real estate. Although it was involved various
industries, it was weak in the technology industry. The Felix Family could wee a great future if we
could develop this industry.
As far as I knew, the country''s most influential science and technological force was the Forger Family.
Logically, the Felix Family would want the Forger Family''s resources. However, it wasn''t necessary.
At the very least, I wouldn''t go looking for Nichs to discuss business.
However, if the Felix Family and the Forger Familybined, it would be a robust international
enterprise.
This was why Chairman Forger insisted on taking over the Felix Family.
However, Nichs still returned the Felix Family to me despite the temptation.
I had never figured out his reason for returning it to me.
If the reason was love, it was highly unlikely as he had already forgotten about me.
It was also ridiculous to say that he lost his ambition.
Although I couldn''t figure it out, I still didn''t call him to confirm it as I didn''t want anything to do with him.
I stayed in thepany until 8.00 PM. The snowfall was getting heavier, and it had umted to a
thickyer. I took the car keys and drove to a nearby restaurant to grab a bite.
Just as I was about to check out and leave, I heard a familiar voice. "Renee, what a coincidence! Are
you having dinner here too?"
