Chapter 1614
When Levi regained his consciousness, he was already in a hospital in Chatterton Town. Julien,
whom he hadn''t seen for a very long time, had paid a visit.
Julien sat beside his bed and apanied him. After a long silence, he couldn''t resist asking,
"You''re awake but you aren''t talking. Levi, this doesn''t seem like you."
Levi thought of Ronald with a heavy heart and responded gravely, "People change."
"All humans die eventually, just that some go sooner than others. Yourrade died with honor and
would be respected by everyone. You should be proud of him," Julienforted him.
"Julien, you are so heartless. He''s dead. How could you say it so carefreely?" Levi sat up abruptly
and bellowed. However, he realized that he had gone too far. Julien was merely stating the truth.
That''s right, Ronald had already passed away. What was the point of grieving?
Would Ronalde back alive?
No!
Those who survived should live on and treasure their life. They should live happily for the sake of
those who hadid down their lives.
Levi leaned against the headboard, and many thoughts crossed his mind. "Julien, something is
bothering me. I thought I knew the answer, but I''m starting to doubt myself recently. I can''t wrap my
head around it. I''m lost."
Julien chuckled. "How could you ever feel lost?"
They grew up together and knew each other very well. Levi had always pretended to be wise and
knowledgeable, regardless of the circumstances. However, he now confessed that he was in doubt
out of a sudden, and so Julien was indeed puzzled.
Levi stared at the ceiling and said solemnly, "Julien, I only have one question. Please answer me
honestly."
Julien sighed and agreed. It was impossible to refuse someone who was injured. "Go ahead. As
long as it''s something I know, I will tell you the truth."
Levi shifted his gaze to Julien''s face and asked tentatively, "What made you fall for Vanessa? Was it
because of her beauty?"
Julien scowled. Was Levi implying that Julien was a shallow man?! He gave Levi a look of reproach
and retorted, "It''s none of your business why I love Vanessa."
Levi sighed, a sullen expression on his face. "You promised to tell me everything, but you went
against your words after the first question. You are so heartless. I wasn''t teasing you. It was an
earnest question."
He seemed sincere. Julien decided that he was not joking. Besides, there was nothing to hide.
Hence, he said, "Well, let me tell you why I love Vanessa."
Levi''s face lit up, and he pricked up his ears. "Tell me! I''m all ears."
"Back then, before I met Vanessa, I set very high standards for my future partner. I felt that my
future partner must be perfect in all aspects. She must be well-educated, polite and amazing in all
ways. However, when I met Vanessa, I fell for her deeply. I did not have the slightest clue why. It just
happened naturally."
Julien''s expression softened as he reminisced. "Once we started dating, I only had eyes for her.
When she smiles, my heart melts and when she cries, my heart starts to ache. I am affected by her
mood. Unknowingly, I could no longer take my eyes off her. I wish to keep her by my side so that I
can look at her all the time."
Upon hearing this, Levi cried out in despair, "No way! No way! It''s impossible!"
Julien asked him point-nk, "Do you have a crush on that girl, Monique Zellweger?"
Levi wanted to nod instinctively but he stopped himself. It was ridiculous! There was no way he
would fall for a tomboy. He liked girls who were stunning, gentle, andpassionate. Monique was
definitely not his type. He dismissed the thought. "Don''t joke! You know me well. How could I
possibly fall for a tomboy?"
Seeing that he was flustered and reluctant to admit his feelings, Julien did not force him. After all,
when it came to rtionships, he can only rely on his own ord. It didn''t matter what other people
said. "It''s fine if you don''t like her. Why are you so agitated?"
Levi retorted, "Who says I''m agitated? I''m just making myself clear so that you guys don''t
misunderstand my intentions. I definitely do not want Monique to have the wrong idea."
Julien chortled. "All right, you are just afraid that we will misunderstand."
Levi looked at him and asked sheepishly, "Do you really believe what I said?"
Julien smirked and remarked, "Do you prefer me to believe you or should I be skeptical?"
Levi said dejectedly, "Well, to be frank, every time Monique appears in front of me, I can''t seem to
take my eyes off her. I don''t know why but sometimes I feel frustrated when other men nced in
her direction. But Julien, you know me. I like women with good looks. I value beauty above all.
Monique is a tomboy and is in no way beautiful but why do I think that she''s attractive in her own
way?"
Levi pondered the matter for a very long time but he still couldn''t wrap his head around it. He was
hoping that Julien could help rify his doubts. Although Julien was quite dull-witted, he was
definitely more experienced than him.
Julien sighed and responded, "I just told you that before I met Vanessa, I also set a list of criteria.
However, ever since I met her, I forgot about my criteria. In my opinion, no woman in the world
would be a match for Vanessa."
Levi said exasperatingly, "But it is undeniable that Vanessa is truly gorgeous. Anyone would have
been attracted to her at first nce."
Julien raised his brows and said in a warning tone, "Were you?"
"No." He did not deny it because he was afraid of Julien. It was true that he had never fallen for
Vanessa.
Firstly, it was out of the question that he would have feelings for Vanessa since he knew that Julien
was keenly interested in her. Besides, he just thought that Vanessa was gorgeous. Beauty could be
admired from a distance. It was not necessary to possess her as his own...N?velDrama.Org content.
