Chapter 416
“Which hospital is your cousin in?”
“She’s at Central Hospital.”
He put down the blow dryer, gently hugged her, and said, “Her story is a real bummer. Her parents‘ company was forcibly taken over, then they were in a car accident, and the driver died too. She’s been leaning on the driver’s son. I want to help, but I feel so helpless.”
Seeing Felix so down, Carol reached out and gave his head a little rub.
“Don’t worry, I’ll talk to Maja about it. She’s loaded, she’ll get a specialist in no time. And $200,000 is peanuts to Maja. Your cousin will get her surgery soon. Felix, can I go with you to visit your cousin someday?”
Felix stiffened, a dangerous look in his eyes, clutching Carol tightly.
“If you go with me, don’t let her know about us.”
“Why?” Carol was puzzled, turning her head to look at him.
Felix lightly kissed her lips.
“Since the accident, I’m the one taking care of her. Other relatives avoid her, her home is in debt, and debt collectors are always at the door, she’s really sensitive now. I’m worried she’ll think you stole me from her and cry all the time.”
“Sorry, Carol.”
So that was it.
Carol gave a generous smile.
“No problem, ‘won’t mention our relationship.”
“Felix, if your friend can solve this, I should take her out for a meal, right?”
Carol pulled him onto the bed.
“Maja and I are close; you don’t have to be so formal. I’ll talk to her.”
Actually, Carol could totally handle this on her own:
After all, she’s rolling in it, she can do whatever she wanted.
Felix gratefully held Carol, and without hesitation he lay Carol down, grabbing a blindfold for her.
Carol’s cheeks turned red.
“Felix, I don’t want to wear this.”
Felix stiffened, then turned off the room lights.
Carol loved him with all her heart. Suddenly she saw him take a pill.
“Why do you always take pills?”
Felix laughed, casually saying, “It’s a vitamin.”
Carol didn’t suspect a thing..
As they held each other, she heard him suppress a call, like it was some other woman’s name. Carol stiffened, sobering up instantly. “What did you call me?”
Felix gripped her chin, “You heard wrong.”
Only then did Carol glare at him.
The night outside had turned dark.
In Greenfield, the young people’s nightlife was just beginning.
Carlene Shepard and a group of socialites left the bar, suddenly realizing her phone was missing, her eyebrows furrowed.
She seemed to have been bumped into earlier, was that when her phone was stolen?
She was furious, ordering an immediate investigation.
Surveillance footage showed that indeed, the person who bumped into her earlier had stolen her phone.
She ordered a further investigation of the surveillance footage, finally identifying the thief’s face.
it was the woman who tried to lure lan.
Seeing this, Carlene’s face hardened, and she immediately understood why her phone was stolen.
She gave a cold laugh.
She guessed that the woman had used her phone to message lan, trying to lure him.
But Carlene had absolute trust in lan, there was no way he would fall for such a cheap trick.
“Ms. Shepard, should we call the police?”
She waved off the suggestion, “No need, let her make a fool of herself, we can call the police after she’s embarrassed herself.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
