Favo Novel
Chapter 47
In the following days, I started running a fever, feeling disoriented and uncomfortable with pain all over
my body.
Jade and the others visited me and shared jokes to cheer me up every day. Yet. I couldn’t muster any interest. Seeing my lack of enthusiasm, they fell silent and quietly kept me company throughout the day.
Ever since the Whites left that night, my parents and I tacitly avoided mentioning the incident.
I wasn’t sure if Aunt Melinda had visited me again. But my parents didn’t bring it up, and I preferred not to
dwell on it.
My parents devoted all their attention to me, seemingly cutting ties with the White family.
I observed Mom several times, especially two days ago when she turned Aunt Melinda away during her visit. There was a subtle hint of concern in Mom’s eyes.
I sighed inwardly, realizing that my condition had strained the relationship between Mom and Aunt
Melinda.
Having a daughter as fragile and helpless as me could be both a blessing and a curse for my mom. However, judging by the current situation, the latter seemed more likely.
Felix visited once with Lilac when my parents were meeting with the doctor to discuss my condition. I woke up from a nap to find them standing by my bedside.
Lilac leaned delicately against Felix, and her big, watery eyes were fixed on me.
I couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to her act and remained silent.
Surprisingly, Felix didn’t dwell on my indifference toward Lilac. Instead, he sincerely apologized for leaving me alone on the road and asked for forgiveness.
I felt indifferent to his words.
He had already said the same things before, and I didn’t need any apology. I calmly told him that the severe injuries were my own fault and had nothing to do with him.
If I hadn’t been so stubbornly infatuated with him, I wouldn’t have agreed to go out with him in the first
place.
It would have spared me from this pitiful and embarrassing situation.
12. 12.
Felix kept apologizing, and I grew a bit annoyed. I patiently informed him that I didn’t blame him. If anyone were to blame, it would be the property management.
If they had identified and corrected the hidden danger promptly. I wouldn’t have suffered this. I even mentioned that I planned to confront the property management once I recovered.
I maintained a calm smile throughout the conversation. I didn’t place blame on him, nor did I engage in any verbal exchange with Lilac, who remained silent throughout.
Despite growing up together, Felix harmed me. I certainly wouldn’t have expected Lilac, who supposedly considered me a rival, to be kind to me.
I truly held no grudges as I knew my place in Felix’s heart.
Since Felix had no feelings toward me, I’d free myself from holding onto any feelings for him.
When Felix left, his expression seemed somewhat unpleasant. However, I couldn’t discern if it was due to guilt or regret.
Hence, I chose to disregard it.
I guessed it was time to let go of Felix. Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
The next morning, when Mom returned from buying breakfast, her face was stern and unhappy.
I asked her what happened.
She told me that she ran into Lilac and Felix downstairs. Lilac wanted to come up and see me, but Felix refused, leading to a heated argument in the hall.
“What’s there to see? Clearly, they’re not up to any good. That girl doesn’t seem innocent. Lulu, stay away
from them in the future.”
I just shrugged it off.
Later, I learned that Uncle Austin and Aunt Melinda had a major confrontation with Felix and Lilac because of my situation. They explicitly stated that they considered me their daughter–in–law.
Even if I didn’t want anything with Felix, the White family’s daughter–in–law could be any girl in the world, but Lilac would never step past the White family’s doors.
