"She didn't betray me! No! She definitely won't!" Felix roared, "She told me to wait for her until she grew up, and she would marry me. She wanted to be my wife."
Those words still rang in his ears occasionally, reminding him of the promise between them... Silvia telling him to wait for her to grow up so he could marry her.
She loved him wholeheartedly. He had just disappeared for a few months, how would she fall in love with someone else? No matter the evidence placed right in front of his eyes, he was not willing to believe it.
Although he saw with his own eyes that she was together with Jayden, he believed that Silvia must have been threatened into complying... That she had no choice but to be with Jayden.
Dr. Thames shook him hard and exclaimed, "Felix, wake up and face reality. Don't live in your fantasy anymore."
"Reality? Fantasy?" The reality was too cruel to bear, so Felix used alcohol to numb himself. In that way, he would be able to pretend that Silvia was still the girl he knew, the little lass who tagged behind him every day. The little girl who revolved around him like he was the center of her world.
Dr. Thames roared at him, "It's a fact that Silvia has betrayed you. We don't have to fall out because of this anymore. Let me remind you, if you want her to come back to you, you have to strive for it. Do you think she will come back to you if all you did was drink yourself into oblivion?"
Felix understood what Dr. Thames said. It was the turning point for their plan, and they could not afford any mishaps. Otherwise, all their previous efforts would have been in vain. If they wanted to triumph over Jayden, he should not get drunk every day. He had to pull himself together.
Felix turned around and headed to the washroom to wash his face. He was trying to come to his senses. "Dr. Thames, you said that Jayden dismissed you. If you don't stay by his side, then our plans..."
"I can't work for him anymore, but I have arranged everything else. Everything will go according to our plan, and no one can change it." If she coveted a man, she would definitely get him. If she couldn't get him, then she would rather destroy him than to let him fall into another woman's hands.
Felix rubbed his temples and slowly said, "We've started this, we can’t go back anymore. Keep in mind, continue with your act even if he has dismissed you."
"Yeah, I will." Dr. Thames concealed the fact that she and Silvia were now on bad terms because she knew that Felix would lose control as soon as he heard the word "Silvia".
She really couldn't understand this man. Silvia had already betrayed him, but he still regarded her as a treasure. "What's so good about Silvia? Why must all of you men desire her?"
"What's good about her?" Felix thought of Silvia's sweet smile. He thought of how she called his name so gently. He thought of many, many things related to her. "Everything about her is good!"
He had pampered her ever since she was a child. It was indisputable that she was amazing in every aspect!
"No matter how good she is, she belongs to someone else now." Dr. Thames went into the room and bagged two bottles of wine. "Tonight, let's drink to our heart's content. When we wake up tomorrow, well forget everything and continue to strive for our goal."
Felix took the wine and said, "Speaking of which, what you are doing is even more meaningless than what I am doing. Jayden has never looked at you, and there was no history between you two. Why are you so stubborn?"
Dr. Thames loosened the bottle cap and said, "Yes, he doesn't like me, but I like him. My strength is that if I like something, I will get it by all means."
Felix scoffed, "Jayden is not an object you can obtain so easily. He's the biggest shot in Madison City. How could you ever get him in your hands?"
