Chapter 299
Colin was obviously in so much pain that he had no way out. However, he still thought of me first and apologized.
He was so good to me. How could I bear to see him like this?
“Colin, I’ll take care of Felix later.”
It was the only way to save trouble and effort.
Colin abruptly raised his head. His eyes were bloodshot, and his wrath erupted from pent emotions. “I won’t let you. Our issue has nothing to do with you. It’s not your turn to make sacrifices.”
“No, I won’t let you! Don’t worry about it. I can find a solution.” He grabbed my shoulders and shook me vigorously. His warm tears fell on my face.
He was like a trapped animal, roaring in grief and anger. Uncontrollable despair and pain caused him to collapse.
My heart tightened as if needles were pricking me, leaving me full of holes. I felt a heartbreaking pain.
“Colin, don’t worry. Relax and listen to me. I won’t leave you. I never even
considered it.”
Colin’s hug hurt me, yet I didn’t struggle. All I could do was hug him back. with all my strength.
He sobbed. “Don’t leave me, Lulu. Please don’t leave.”
His tears were so hot that it seemed to burn my skin.
“I won’t leave. I’ll tell Aunt Mel that I’ll take care of Felix. Honestly, I don’t care about him. It makes no difference to me if he lives or dies, but he’s your brother. You’ve been suffering for several days. If he’s gone, you’ll blame yourself. Aunt Mel’s slander won’t stop, and we won’t be happy.

“Colin, I want to be with you. I don’t want to abandon you, so I’ll take care
of him. Only when he gets better and regains health can we be together
without burden and be happy. Am I right?”
Colin felt vulnerable, so I had to be patient and gently coax him.
“Lulu, you’re right, but I can’t bear you to do that.”
He clutched me hard and stared at me intensely, which made me a little nervous. However, his grasp grew warmer. His eyes, which had remained dim for a long time, now brightened.
“That’s enough, baby. You’re so kind. I feel awful. Please go home to Uncle Gerald and Aunt Harper. Leave us alone for now and leave the problem to me. I’ll look for you when I’ve solved everything. Be good and go back now.”
I refused. “I don’t want it. I’m worried that we won’t have a future if I leave. I still want to be with you for a long time. I want you to propose to me in a sea of flowers. I want you to carry me into the wedding car. I also want to have two children with you in the future. I won’t leave you alone. Don’t push me away.”
Colin comforted me. “I won’t do that. I love you so much. How can I bear pushing you away? I just don’t want you to suffer.”
He eventually calmed down and accepted my suggestion. Then, he took me
to Aunt Mel.
After what happened that day, my relationship with her came to a standstill. I would have disregarded her for the rest of my life if it weren’t for Colin.
I even wondered if her kindness to me from childhood was genuine since I witnessed how harsh she was to Colin.
