Chapter 1431 Felix''s Decision


    Felix took several deep breaths, trying to make himself calm down. When his voice finally stopped


    trembling, he said to Le, "I can''t do this. I can''t kill Lillian. It''s too risky. We have to think of another


    way."

    Despite this, Felix knew that they had no other option. It seemed as if this was the only way to save


    himself—to kill Lillian and cover his tracks.


    This made him desperate. Felix closed his eyes feeling everything close in on him.


    "Don''t be so stupid! We don''t have any other choice left! Are you forgetting that it was you who


    prescribed the poisonous medicine? That''s already a crime in itself! You could go to prison! Do you


    really think you can get away with that if Lillian is caught? The right thing to do is to get rid of her. Only


    the dead can keep secrets," Le said harshly.


    Felix knew that Le was right but he just couldn''t ept the reality that he would kill Le with his own


    two hands. He just wanted to convince himself that the whole situation wasn''t that serious and that


    there was still hope.


    However when Le put it like that, he just couldn''t convince himself any longer, and it made him


    tremble with fear.


    He still wasn''t sure if he could do it—kill Lillian. He kept thinking about it over and over again.


    "Maybe... maybe there''s another way," Felix murmured.


    Felix''s hesitance enraged Le even more.


    "Do you think Lillian isn''t going to tell on you if she gets caught by the police? In your dreams!


    Everyone''s just out to look for themselves. When ites down to it, people are always going to


    choose themselves. I''m sure that the first thing Lillian''s going to do when she gets caught is tell on you!


    Even worse, she''ll put all of the me on you! She can easily im that you just forced her into helping


    you out!" Le was angry.


    Le was trying her best to convince him. Felix was left with no choice.


    "Fine. I''ll do it. But I still don''t know where to start," Felix said hesitantly.


    He thought, ''Don''t me me, Lillian. I don''t have a choice. We just have really bad luck.''


    When Felix finally made up his mind and he was sure of his decision, his eyes became sharp.


    A satisfied smile broke into Le''s face. She always knew that Felix would give in. She knew that he


    was that type of weak person to give in. He would do anything for himself even if it meant harming


    others. This quality of him was why Le chose him in the first ce.


    "I have the medicine with me, and I''m going to give it to you. I know you''re smart enough to know what


    to do with it," Le said carefully.


    "Got it," Felix said curtly. He closed his eyes and covered his face with his other hand.


    "Good. Tell me when it''s over," Le said, satisfied.


    Felix murmured something before hanging up the phone.


    Felix fell into silence. He was starting to think twice again unsure whether he was making the right


    decision or not. He didn''t know if the situation was going to get any worse. He didn''t know what was


    going to happen if he got exposed.


    However, he didn''t have time to think about that. The only thing he could think about right now was that


    if Lillian told on him, he would get caught and he could be sentenced to years in prison.


    At Lillian''s house


    Lillian stayed at the spot that Felix frequented before as she anxiously waited for him. He was going to


    tell her their next n.


    She was going crazy. She couldn''t call Felix as she was afraid that the police was monitoring her


    phone.


    However, Felix didn''t show up that night.


    Lillian waited and waited until she was desperate.


    Lillian stared at the door. She was starting to get lonely. As time went by, the hurt she was feeling


    elevated. She just kept convincing herself that any minute now Felix would show up just like he said he


    would.


    He just hadn''t shown up because he was busy. He wasn''t ditching her or anything. He was just a little


    She figured that convincing herself like that worked so she continued to do it.


    Even then, Lillian had to control herself from calling Felix. She even considered visiting him in his own


    home and asking him what the hell was going on. Howe he wasn''t visiting her? Didn''t he know


    how scared she was?


    But the truth was that Lillian would forgive Felix the minute he showed up. All she needed was one hug


    from Felix, and she would be okay. She couldn''t find it in herself to stay angry at him.


    That time, Lillian''s phone rang several times. She never answered because she was afraid it was


    Sheryl or the police calling. She just waited until her phone stopped ringing.


    She knew that all her actions towards Sheryl were unforgivable, and she didn''t want to face the


    consequences. As she recalled Sheryl''s warm smile, she felt relieved that she wasn''t able to push


    through with the n.


    She knew that she didn''t want the beautiful and kind Sheryl to die.


    However, even if she felt this way, there was no denying the fact that it was still attempted murder.


    Sometimes, she doubted whether all her efforts were worth it for someone like Felix. She didn''t know


    the answer like so many other unexined questions in the world.


    One of these unexined questions was why she loved Felix so much even if she knew that he wasn''t


    exactly a good guy who didn''t deserve her love and affection.


    But this was love—inevitable and mysterious.


    Lillian sat on the sofa day in and day out. When night came, darkness filled the entire room.


    The curtains were kept close so that no light at all could pass through. She isted herself—forgetting


    to eat or sleep. She was going crazy.
