Chapter 303
I even started to believe the fortune teller Aunt Mel had mentioned was capable. He actually made the
correct prediction!
“You’re finally awake! I can’t believe it!” I covered my mouth in surprise and burst into tears.
It was good news. Colin and I would have a bright future as Felix awoke.
“Colin, wake up!” I raised my voice in anxiety.
Colin opened his eyes and was confused for a little while. Then, his expression abruptly changed, and he got up nervously. “What’s wrong, Lulu?”
My tears probably startled him. He only put on one shoe and dashed over. “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”
Colin had often said this sentence to me after Felix’s accident.
He became solemn, unlocking his phone with trembling hands.
Gosh, did Colin think Felix was going to die? Was he going to call his parents to see Felix for the last
time? He wouldn’t be so serious otherwise.
It was my fault for not explaining things properly.
“Colin, Felix is awake!” I dragged Colin to Felix.
ル
His hands froze mid–air as he stared into Felix’s eyes, and his eyes reddened.
“Felix? Thank goodness. You’re awake…”
Colin, an imposing man about 6 feet 3 inches, crouched on the ground. He covered his face and burst
into tears.
His tense emotions eased, and the formidable front he had been attempting to retain faded at this point.
For the first time, I recognized his deep vulnerability.
After the doctor’s examination, he said that Felix would gradually recover.
Soon, Uncle Austin and Aunt Mel came. Seeing Felix lying on the bed in a daze, they hugged each other and cried incomprehensibly.
I also called my parents and informed them that Felix had awoken. They didn’t appear surprised. They
simply told me to go home early since he was fine. We had to relocate everything to the new house.

After asking for the details, I discovered they had decided to sell the house here and officially shift to a
new house.
Mom asked for my opinion. For me, it didn’t matter whether they sold it. However, the current problem might not have occurred if they had sold it earlier.
Colin and I stood aside. I noticed his eyes were reddish. He didn’t look at me, but he held my hand tightly.
“Thank you, Lulu.”
Aunt Mel held my other hand and thanked me repeatedly. “It was all my fault. I apologize for what I did before. I know you’re a generous girl. Can you forgive me?”
She appeared sincere, her tearful eyes filled with guilt as she pleaded. It was a pity that no matter what she did, I would never let it affect me again.
I withdrew my hand and stepped to Colin’s other side, lowering my gaze and saying softly, “I’m just helping Colin. It has nothing to do with anyone else.”
Aunt Mel’s smile instantly faded. Since I didn’t treat her respectfully, she retracted her hand embarrassingly. She appeared a little ashamed and angry but more guilty and helpless.
It wasn’t that I was unforgiving or didn’t value Colin’s family. However, her cursing Colin destroyed my respect and love for her. I felt disappointed in her.
Uncle Austin came over and said gently, “Lulu, it was all Mel’s fault. Felix caused her mental breakdown. She didn’t mean to be harsh to you. You’re a good girl. Just forgive her. We’ll make it up to you in the
future. Don’t hold grudges against her.”
