"I..." Upon hearing Silvia's roar, the fierceness in Felix's eyes slowly dissipated. He calmed himself down and said, "Silvia, I... I'm sorry! I shouldn't have done that."
"No Felix, I should be the one apologizing instead. I was the one who's ditching you, I'm really sorry but I really have something important that I must attend to now." At this time, Silvia's mind was full of Jayden. It did not matter now if Jayden had really regarded her as a substitute. She would still go over to see him. Regardless of what had happened, she still hoped that he could live well.
The main reason she was angry with Jayden was she had fallen in love with him. However, he had always regarded her as a substitute, and whenever she thought of it, she felt as if her heart was being fried up in a wok of hot oil.
"Silvia, is it Jayden?" From the moment she answered the phone, Felix already guessed that the person who called Silvia must have something to do with Jayden. However, he was not willing to believe it.
"Something happened to him, I need to see him." She had never lied to Felix about her feelings for Jayden. Silvia knew that she had to go see Jayden, and there was no need for her to hide it from Felix.
Felix questioned closely, "Silvia, what could have happened to him though?"
"I don't know." No matter what happened to Jayden, Silvia had already made up her mind that she would see him.
"Silvia, have you never thought that he might be lying to you?" Felix had spent some time with Dr. Thames in the past. He was quite familiar with Jayden's bodily condition. Although his illness was not something that could be easily cured, it would not be that easy for him to die from it.
Felix guessed that Jayden was just trying to use this method to trick Silvia and make her go back to him. Now that Felix had finally managed to get Silvia back to his side, everything that he had done would all go in vain if he let go of Silvia at this crucial moment.
"Even if he is lying to me, I still want to see him. I would rather he lie to me, but what does it have to do with you?" When she heard that Jayden was dying, Silvia was already on the verge of breaking down. Now that Felix was suspecting that all these might be just a trick, Silvia snapped at that instant.
No one would ever joke about the lives of their family, especially someone like Julien who loved his brother so much. She was already on the verge of a mental breakdown at this very moment. She did not have the time and energy to argue with Felix whether Jayden was lying to her.
To tell the truth, she hoped that Julien was lying to her. If he was indeed lying to her, then it would prove that Jayden was doing fine. That was why she would rather be the one getting fooled.
"Even if he had lied to you, you still want to see him?" Felix repeated Silvia's words. Her words once again pushed him into the abyss of despair, reminding him that she was no longer his Silvia.
"Silvia, if you walk out of here today, then please don't come to me ever again." Felix withdrew his hand reluctantly and made such a harsh remark. At this point in time, he was betting on whether Silvia would choose him over Jayden.
"I'm really sorry, Felix!" After apologizing to Felix once again, Silvia decisively turned around and walked out of the building. This time, between Jayden and Felix, she had chosen Jayden without any hesitation.
The moment Silvia turned around, Felix, who still had a glimmer of hope, was utterly disappointed.
As he watched her slowly walking away from him, he felt that his heart was getting colder. It had become so cold that there was no warmth to it at all. Soon enough, the painful look in his eyes started to vanish.
He squinted, and a sharp light flashed across his eyes. "Silvia, I love you so much. I want to be good to you for the rest of my life, but why would you always let me down?"
No one was there to give him an answer.
Because the person who he cared about the most had already left him.
Alina Bell, who was hiding in a dark corner, witnessed everything that had happened between Silvia and Felix. At that instant, she let out a sigh of relief. Silvia had once again chosen Jayden over Felix. It was indeed good news to Alina.
Without Silvia, Felix could only place all his hopes on her. Then, she could slowly become someone important to Felix. A person who Felix could not live without.
