Chapter 275 
But my plan didn’t work. Felix froze mid–action, which meant he saw the cheating couple. 

I panicked and peered at Colin. “Oh, no. What do we do now?” 
“Relax. Let’s see how this unfolds,” Colin hugged me and whispered into 
my ear. 
Felix looked at the cheating couple in disbelief for a while. Then, he hollered and charged at them. 
When Colin and I made our way to the scene, a fight had already broken out. 
Meek women were screaming and running away from the violence, while curious men stayed on the sidelines to see who would win in the end. 
Felix wasn’t short, but he grew up in a pampered and protected environment. All he knew was studying and looking cool. He was by no means strong enough to overpower Shawn, who had been fighting since 
young. 
Over there, I saw Shawn landing blow after blow on Felix’s head. He stomped on Felix’s body with his leather shoes as he hurled nasty insults. 
Felix was curled up on the ground. He tried to get up to retaliate, only to be brought down again by Shawn. 
Blood was all over his face, and he was bruised. 
Meanwhile, Lilac–whom Felix insisted on dating despite his family’s objection–was watching the violence from the sidelines with her hands in her pocket. She made no attempt to break up the fight. 
The coldness she showed Felix brought chills to my spine. I wondered what Felix was feeling now. 
This was confusing. 
I used to think that she loved Felix. But what she was doing now was the opposite of love. Why did she dog behind Felix all these years, then? Because he was handsome? Because he could give her fame and riches in Southsville? 
Maybe neither. Perhaps Felix was just her contingency plan. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have hooked up with Shawn the year she attended Lincoln 
University as an exchange student. 
Was it all Lilac’s fault? The responsibility was not hers alone. 
Was it Felix’s fault? No, it took two to tango. He deserved it. 
He was aware that Lilac hired people to assault me. She violated the laws. She was dangerous. Lilac was a ticking time bomb that threatened to blow up on his face and hurt him one day, yet he enabled her. 
Felix was the enabler, and Lilac was evil. I was glad that they were dating because at least, they were not hurting another innocent soul. 
To be cheated on was what Felix had coming for him. 
What a mess! 
“Stop!” Colin stepped in and seized Shawn’s rampaging hand. He yanked it angrily and kicked Shawn, sending him rolling on the ground. 
Shawn saw Colin closing in and tanked his kick. He glared at him with 
murderous eyes. 

While he was strong, he knew he didn’t stand a chance against Colin. 
He learned that the hard way back at Lincoln University. 
“Colin, stop! Shawn!” Lilac blanched. She threw herself on top of Shawn on the ground and began sobbing. 
She took on the role of a silent bystander when Shawn was hitting Felix. Yet when Shawn was hit, she took on the role of a protector, trying to shield

him from harm. 
That truly showed who she cared about and who she did not. 
Felix’s face was badly injured. Blood came gushing out from his nose. He lay on the floor with a stoic expression. His eyes stared at the dark sky like a 
puppet devoid of a soul. 
“Felix, are you alright?” Colin offered him a hand.
