Dad and Mom were back. They were making dinner in the kitchen. When they heard me open the door, they came to greet me.

"Dad, Mom." I collapsed on the sofa, exhausted. The sense of powerlessness in my heart grew stronger.

"What's wrong, baby? Tell us. We can find a solution together. Don't worry." Mom embraced me and patted my back gently to comfort me.

Her arms were so warm. I wanted to lie in her arms forever, forgetting about the trouble outside and the problems I couldn't fix.

"Mom, Felix hasn't woken up yet. Aunt Mel said that only I could save him. She wanted me to break up with Colin and be with Felix."

"How could Mel say that? Lulu, tell us. What do you want?"

"I don't want to. Mom, I want to be with Colin."

Dad patted my hand lovingly and declared they would support whatever decision I made. However, I was so uncomfortable that even the warmth of his hand couldn't soothe me.

"Lulu, you're our only daughter. What we want most in this life is your happiness. What happene

    Indeed, they were right. I understood it better than them, but things were not that simple.If it were that easy, Felix wouldn't make himself so miserable.After seven days, on a Saturday, my parents were resting at home in the morning when the phone rang.Aunt Mel was unexpectedly calling Mom. She cried and stated that Felix had respiratory failure. He had been brought to the emergency room again.Even though I was unwilling to think that way, I guessed he did it purposefully to force me to be with him. His life was at stake, and we had no choice but to go to the hospital.It took three hours for Felix to leave the emergency room, and we felt horrible the entire time.Colin leaned against the wall. He took a cigarette from his pocket, but his hands were shaking so badly he couldn't light it for a long time.I held his hand and helped him steady the lighter's flame beneath the cigarette.Colin took a drag, leaving only half the cigarette. He then puffed smoke into the air, foll

    It was as if something had suddenly pierced my heart. It stung so badly that I couldn't stand it. I leaned against the wall with difficulty and cried quietly.I never expected Aunt Mel to say such a thing after we had known each other for almost 20 years.Although she wasn't my biological mother, she should be aware of my personality and have an accurate assessment of me.Her attitude toward the incident between Felix and me led me to believe as much.However, when her son's life was in danger, she appeared to be a different person, prone to saying harsh words.I couldn't see the familiar Aunt Mel anymore. In other words, except for Colin, I was unfamiliar with the rest of the White family."Mom, don't slander Lulu. She didn't say anything. This has nothing to do with her. You can't put pressure on her.""Okay, I won't pressure her. But you must give her to your brother. Go break up with her. She'll listen to you.""Why, Mom? Why must you force me?"Colin's voice quivered. "Lu

    Aunt Mel didn't return. Uncle Austin called to ask her where she was. She vaguely stated that she had something to do and asked him to take good care of Felix.Felix still didn't wake up. The doctor indicated his vital signs were normal, and he wasn't in danger for the time being. He would wake up eventually.My parents decided to take me back home. Colin accompanied me downstairs and watched as I entered the car.When Dad drove away, he remained in front of the hospital, looking at me from a distance.My parents were old, and the past few days exhausted them. As they weren't feeling well, they returned to take a shower and rest.I lay on the sofa alone. My mind was disorganized, and my head throbbed with pain.I wasn't sure how much time had passed, but I soon heard the unlocking of the door opposite. I hurriedly got up to take a look.It was Colin. He was holding a large bag and putting the keys away after opening the door.I followed him in and asked why he was back. He stat

    "Mom, please shut up!" Colin wanted to protect me behind his back, but I refused.He had always protected me. Today was my turn to defend him. He loved me so much. I couldn't let him down."It's impossible. Felix and I ended our relationship a long time ago. I only love Colin right now. There is no way I can be with Felix again, and I don't want to. It has nothing to do with Colin. Don't try to force him.""Luna, you're so cruel! How could you refuse to save Felix?" Aunt Mel scowled, looking frantic."It's not that I'm cruel. You've gone too far. I'll do whatever I can, but I'm unwilling to sacrifice my happiness for Felix. I won't do that. There's no point in pressing Colin. If you want to blame someone, blame me. If you hurt him again, I'll take him away."Aunt Mel was stunned. When she saw Colin and me hugging, her expression turned gloomy."You're so heartless!" she shrieked. Her eyes rolled, and she passed out."Mom, what's wrong?" Colin let go of me and dashed over, crouch

    The man in his 30s knelt beside his mother and begged, but it didn't move her the slightest or gain her attention.My heart grew cold. My intuition told me that it was going to be difficult today."Mel, get up! What are you doing? If you have trouble, we can find a solution. You don't need to do this. You are scaring Lulu." Mom took Aunt Mel's hand and attempted to help her up.Aunt Mel didn't even look at Mom. She broke free and started crying. "Lulu, please be merciful. Please save Felix. Only you can save him, please."She hugged me so tightly that I couldn't break away at all. I was exhausted.She had placed a huge burden on me, both mentally and physically."Aunt Mel, it's the doctor's job to save people. I can't do it." I managed to calm down and tried to reason with her.Unfortunately, it was a futile hope.Aunt Mel was like a gambler. She knew full well that the outcome was uncontrollable, but she persistently believed her choice was correct and refused to look back.S

    I had no way to explain.I was innocent. Why did others accuse me based on their understanding without knowing the facts? Did they wish to express their kindness or seek justice?Aunt Mel hugged me so tightly that my leg went numb, but the sorrow in my heart was worse. She planned this. She was selfishly using public opinion to force me to agree to her request.Colin let go of me and tried to pull her up. However, she struggled fiercely, scratching his face and hands. She didn't look at him and continued to cry uncontrollably.She acted as if I had hurt Felix and left him unconscious on the bed.None of these had anything to do with me. I just came to help out of kindness because we were neighbors!I couldn't believe Aunt Mel, who was always gentle and passionate, would become so hysterical for no apparent cause. She was forcing me into an unknown hell.Her actions made me question humanity."Aunt Mel, don't be like this. I..."I felt annoyed and no longer cared about my image

    "I'd like to get everyone's feedback. Felix used to think my daughter was worthless, so he ended their relationship and fell in love with another girl. Now, my daughter has a boyfriend, and they have a good relationship. But Mel wishes to sacrifice my daughter's happiness for her son."Is it reasonable? Should my daughter give up everything and lose her freedom to make decisions? Mel, you're making baseless remarks here and forcing Lulu to obey you."You're too despicable! You're so selfish and shameless! Although I've known you for over 30 years and treat you as my sister, it's the first time I've seen you so unreasonable. You disappoint me."Mom looked at Aunt Mel so sharply that she didn't dare to look up. When Aunt Mel lowered her head, I could see the deep hatred in her eyes.The people present began to whisper and criticize her.Uncle Austin turned his face away in shame as if he could keep out of the situation.A nurse emerged shortly after, along with the security guard.

    "How dare you hit me!" Aunt Mel shoutedMom retorted, "So what if I hit you? You're so cruel! Are you crazy? Colin is your son! You're the one who will face retribution if you curse him like this! No wonder Felix is heartless and selfish. He must've learned from you!"Let's make this clear. Lulu and Felix will never be together! Even if she can't marry anyone, we'll raise her for the rest of her life! Just give up! Lulu, let's go. We don't need such neighbors. We no longer need to worry about Felix's life or death!"Mom indifferently took my frigid hand and brought me into the elevator just as it arrived. Dad followed us.Colin halted the elevator door just before it closed and followed us. I leaned against the wall, shivering. My mind was in chaos.Aunt Mel's words were like a curse, repeating continually in my mind and causing me heartbreak."Lulu, what's wrong? Say something. Don't scare me.""Baby, say something. Look at me. Don't be afraid. We're all by your side. It's okay

    Luna furiously scolded me, asserting that I didn't deserve Queenie's love and that Queenie had been blind to my true colors all those years. Driven mad by desperation, I chased after Queenie, determined to tell her I was wrong and plead for another chance to prove myself. However, the young man intervened, delivering a swift and punishing combination of punches and kicks that knocked me to the ground. Humiliated, I struggled to get up and fight back, unwilling to lose to another man.Despite his youthful appearance, the look in his eyes as he glanced at Queenie was undeniable. It was a blend of love, desire, and possessiveness only a man could understand.I was consumed by the thought that he wasn't worthy of my precious Queenie's love.Nevertheless, my body felt heavy and powerless. It was as if the strength had been drained from me. The blows rained down on me, bringing with them a strange sense of relief amidst the pain. Part of me yearned for him to kick me harder, inflict

    I wanted nothing more than to run to Queenie, to hold her tightly and tell her how much I missed her during those endless days apart. I wanted to kiss her deeply and feel the warmth of her embrace. I called out, "Queenie, I'm here."Seeing me seemed to jolt Queenie from her joyous state, replacing it with a vacant expression. Mere moments before, she had been smiling brightly, her eyes aglow with happiness. Now, she appeared lost, her initial elation dissipating into a blank, unresponsive gaze.I couldn't understand why she had turned so distant upon seeing me. The love and joy that once shone in her eyes were nowhere to be found. As I observed her, I wondered if our time apart had caused her to forget. Or perhaps the events of the past had wounded her so profoundly that she had stopped waiting for me.The thoughts terrified me, and I dared not ask for fear of confirming my suspicions. All I wanted was to hold her, kiss her, and tell her how much I missed her. Yet, it seemed tha

    I had no interest in Daniela's pregnancy, so I kicked her out of the house. My friends came to console me, each expressing their sympathies with a drink because they didn't know how else to comfort me.The money I had sent to Queenie's account was quickly returned as the account had been closed. Her phone number became unreachable, and when I sought her at her parents' home, I found the elderly couple waiting anxiously for their daughter's return. I lost not only Queenie but any connection to her. I grew disinterested in everything, neglecting my company and spending my days in a drunken haze.Then, my uncle came. We drank through the night as he shared tales of his hardships, the painful memories of his mother, and the years he spent alone, suffering.He said, "Everyone has their fate, Flynn. And choosing one thing often means losing another. Just as you've chosen to fight for the family business, you've sacrificed a part of yourself. But you must rise and fight me with all you'v

    Queenie would then jump off the cliff, leaving me to jolt awake in a cold sweat. I endured each twilight in my hopeless vigil, counting down the days.On the 75th day, the door finally unlocked. I stepped outside and realized that this was the neighborhood where Queenie and I lived. All this time, we had been mere yards apart.My mom truly knew how to break a person's spirit. All I had to do was lift my head to see the pomegranate tree planted in our yard.I stumbled toward our home, my wounds screaming as I desperately called for Queenie. But the immaculate house stood eerily silent, echoing my footsteps like thunder.Except for Queenie, every possession remained meticulously in place—the exquisite clothes, expensive jewelry, and designer cosmetics.Queenie was gone, and the thought of losing her drove me into a frenzy.I collapsed in the middle of the room, sobbing uncontrollably. Regret consumed me. I should have never let my family's threats manipulate me and left Queenie to

    I clenched my fists, barely resisting the urge to rush over to Queenie's side. All I wanted was to embrace her and whisper assurances that I would protect her, always. But I knew I had no right to do so.My dad's threat hung heavy in my mind, and the stares of Daniela and her mother bore into Queenie like daggers. One wrong move or word and those blades would descend upon Queenie, cutting her to shreds.The pain was unbearable. I felt sorry for Queenie. I was powerless and couldn't help her. With all my heart, I wished for her to stay strong and survive. She deserved better than me. Daniela's mother slapped Queenie, calling her a whore and a homewrecker, accusing her of seducing other people's boyfriends.Queenie stood rigidly, her gaze filled with humiliation. Her lips trembled, and the light in her eyes gradually faded.I winced in agony but held myself together, picking up Daniela and walking away.Countless times afterward, I berated myself for choosing to take Daniela away

    We both knew the truth—neither of us could cross the chasm that had formed between our hearts.After that, I went home almost every day. We managed to maintain a semblance of normalcy in our day-to-day lives. We prepared sumptuous dinners and tended to our garden. I even considered adopting a pet to keep Queenie company while I was away.However, no matter how hard we tried, we couldn't rekindle the warmth we had once shared. Queenie hardly smiled anymore. No matter what I did to cheer her up, she would only give a half-hearted smile, her eyes remaining cold and distant.I knew something had transpired during our separation, but she refused to discuss it. My attempts to uncover the truth through private investigators were in vain. Any evidence had been meticulously erased.Eventually, I realized Queenie was simply biding her time, waiting for the moment when she would be forced to relinquish all hope and leave.A month later, my mother joyfully told me that Daniela was pregnant an

    I grabbed a brush from the bathroom and scrubbed myself furiously, desperate to wash away the overwhelming sense of filth. Even as the rough bristles tore into my skin, drawing blood and causing searing pain, I felt no closer to feeling clean.My mind was consumed with thoughts of Queenie and the nearly five years we had spent together—the happy moments, the arguments, every single memory.At that moment, I realized I was terrified. Never before had I experienced such abject fear. Knowing Queenie's uncompromising stance on love and fidelity, I knew she would never forgive me once she discovered my transgression.She would undoubtedly turn and leave, heedless of any pleas I might make. I probably wouldn't even have the courage to ask for her forgiveness in the face of her justified anger.I regretted everything. If I had listened to my friends and taken Queenie away from all this, none of this would have happened. But I had hesitated. Even now, I couldn't be certain if my hesitati

    Yesterday afternoon, my dad called and demanded that I make a decision within two days, or they would take action.I felt cornered because I genuinely didn't know how to talk to Queenie about this. The mere idea of her packing her belongings and leaving, accompanied by the unspeakable anguish it would inflict upon me, was a burden too heavy to bear.I wasn't sure if I could ever have a semblance of normality in my life again after that.So, I gathered some friends to drink with me. I drank heavily because I had made a decision—a disgraceful, heartless decision. The thought of what I would have to face the next day made life seem hopeless, so I drank even more.Before losing consciousness, I handed my car keys to my assistant, using my last bit of clarity to tell him to take me home no matter what state I was in.Even if it meant returning to the Hayes family's residence, he should not leave me out on the streets. Despite the imminent breakup, I wanted to part ways with Queenie in

    My mom proved to be even more ruthless than my dad. She found me, dropped to her knees without a word, and begged me. She reminded me of the years they had spent raising me, pleading that I ensure they wouldn't be left without a sense of security in their old age.In essence, they were pressuring me to abandon everything. I was to pursue money and power for their sake, secure the Hayes family's head position, and ensure our grip on wealth and influence. Their priority was maintaining their luxurious, elevated lifestyle. My happiness, my desires—whether I even wanted those things—meant nothing to them. Sometimes, it felt like I was nothing more than a tool for achieving their ambitions.My dad told me bluntly that he would go after Queenie if I didn't comply. He said, "You're right. I'm incapable of outmaneuvering your uncle. But no matter how incompetent I am, I can easily make Queenie's life in Harveyton unbearable."To be honest, that day was the coldest my heart had ever felt
