Chapter 24
Felix’s voice was heavy and full of anger, and it was filled with pain, too.
I felt as if I had been struck by something, crushing me and leaving me in agonizing pain.
Something was flowing out of me relentlessly, and there was a lump in my throat. I wavered unsteadily on my feet, and my heart ached so much that it felt like it was about to split in two.
19 years, and he had once again denied it so heartlessly!
What did that make me? My heart had almost died because of how much I loved and missed him, and all
those days of my youth when I had worshiped him like a god
What a pity. It was just a one-sided infatuation on my part.
I was extremely upset.
It was fine if he didn’t have feelings
for me, but we had grown up together. How could he be so heartless as to describe me in that way? He should have been kinder to me, especially knowing how much I had
liked him.
I did not want to listen anymore because I didn’t know what else Felix would say if I continued to hide
here. His words were sure to make me wish that I was dead.

Besides, he had made it clear. He and I were destined to never be husband and wife. I should just let him
go and help him realize his dreams.

Perhaps this was the difference when one loved someone.
Aunt Mel was white with anger, and she was about to go over when I came out from the balcony and

Probably none of them had thought that I would be on the balcony, and all of them immediately realized that I had clearly heard their entire conversation.
Aunt Mel’s expression changed at once, and she took my hand, her lips trembling. She was unable to say a word. The guilt in her eyes washed over me like a tidal wave, almost drowning me.
Felix turned back to look at me. His gaze was chilly, and it made my heart cold.
I didn’t know where the chill in his eyes came from and why it was directed at me.
I really hadn’t done anything. None of this had anything to do with me.
The only thing I had done was to have feelings for him. Apart from that, I had never done anything to hurt
him.
He had no right to look at me that way.
The only reason he was like that was because I wasn’t the person he cared about, and the person he cared about was crying because of me.

After uttering such an enormous lie, I was afraid I would be struck by lightning.
