Chapter 314
“I think Lilac wasn’t lying this time. Felix might have always liked Lulu, but he discovered his feelings too late, and what he did was irreversible. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have come to find you.”
Zara looked so troubled that she patted her head. She was likewise confused. “What a mess.”
Jade wanted to retort. However, she couldn’t find a suitable explanation after thinking for a while. Subconsciously, she seemed to agree with what Zara said.
“Lulu, you’re already with Colin. But if Felix shows up again… You won’t be moved, right?”
I told them, “Hmm. Even if I can’t be with Colin in this life, I’ll never consider being with Felix again.”
I wouldn’t waver. I had agreed with Colin that we would be together for the rest of our lives as long as he passed the probation period. Nobody could stop us.
Jade looked out the window and sighed. “Oh, it was sunny when we came out, but now it’s raining again. The weather is so changeable.”
Yes, even the weather was changeable. Others might change, but I wouldn’t.
When we were leaving, the young owner smiled and sent us to the door, inviting us to come. again.
It hadn’t rained for long. When it came to a halt, the ground had a layer of wetness. I looked up at the sky. It was so overcast that I felt like the clouds would descend on my head at any
moment.
My mood instantly worsened. I had a feeling that something terrible was going to happen.
When I arrived home, Mom had just awoken from her nap, her cheeks flushed. She was sitting on the couch drinking water.
I changed my shoes and stepped in but tripped over something by the door.
I assumed those were items from moving. I was ready to take them up and find somewhere to put them. However, I noticed a pile of nutritional products and two large bags of fruits. There was also durian, which I liked. No wonder I smelled it in the corridor.
“Mom, will we finish eating all these in time?”
I checked the bags, picked them up, and brought them to the kitchen. I wondered why Mom

put them by the door.
Mom retorted, “Will I be so thoughtless when buying them? It was from Felix. He came not long after you left. He gave me these things and apologized for what his mom had done. when he was ill.
“I refused, but he didn’t listen and set down the things. He even stated he would visit us more regularly in the future. Your dad wasn’t home, and I couldn’t refuse him, so I kept the things.”
For some reason, I thought of the poisonous apple that Snow White ate and stared
suspiciously at the fruit bag. Would these fruits be poisonous? Could we believe Felix and eat the things he sent?
“It’s okay, Mom. I’ll send them back to him when I have time tomorrow. We’d better not accept their stuff.”
The things were innocent, but I felt annoyed and kicked them a few times. After I figured out Felix’s thoughts, my previous resistance and impatience toward him turned into disgust and rejection.
His scheming tactics made me despise him even more.
“Felix has already given them to us. It would seem too rude to send them back. Besides, given your relationship with Colin, we’ll meet them again. Don’t worry. Just eat them. I’ll find a chance to return a gift.”
