Chapter 1228

Felix stepped forward and wrapped his arms around Stella.

“Then the person Evan should really hate is me.”

Stella said nothing.

Him?

Was Felix really the root of all of this?

This time, Stella didn’t struggle in his arms.

Her body didn’t even stiffen the moment he hugged her.

That tiny change only made Felix’s heart ache even more.

“Go live the life you want,” he said quietly. “From now on, neither Evan nor I should ever hear anything about you again.”

Stella remained silent.

“I’ll face Evan.”

Felix’s voice hardened.

“One of us will die.”

Stella’s heart clenched at those words.

One of them would die.

The truth was, whether Stella faced Evan herself or Felix went in her place, one of them would probably end up

dead.

Maybe that was the only way this entire mess would finally end.

But hearing Felix say that he would be the one to face Evan made the exhaustion in Stella’s chest twist into something sharper.

“No.”

The word left her quietly.

When Felix had first said he would let her go, she had been tempted.

But now…

The moment she realized what her freedom might cost, she refused.

She pulled away from his arms.

Then she lifted one hand.

She didn’t even seem to know what she intended to do.

But when her hand reached toward his face, it suddenly froze in midair.

A second later, Stella started to pull it back.

Felix caught her hand.

Then he pressed her palm against his cheek.

Their eyes met again.

“Be good this time,” Felix murmured. “Just listen to me, okay?”

For months, Stella had refused to listen to anything he said.

Not only that, she had constantly shut him out because of everything that had happened between them.

Now that she had finally shown him something other than coldness…

Felix treasured it more than he wanted to admit.

Even his voice softened, almost coaxing.

Stella looked at him.

“Then tell me the truth. Did you really have something to do with it?”

Felix went still.

She meant the false information from the investigation.

And the truth was…

Felix hadn’t lied to her before.

He really had nothing to do with it.

He didn’t know why the information had turned out to be wrong.

Back then, there had been nothing suspicious about it.

Jack had even verified everything several times before passing it along to Gray.

At the time, every piece of evidence had seemed legitimate.

Felix still couldn’t understand how it had all gone wrong now.

But after denying it again and again…

He looked into Stella’s eyes and smiled faintly.

“My people did it.”

Stella froze.

“So Evan should hate me.”

Her voice sharpened.

“Why? Why would you do that?”

She instinctively tried to pull her hand away.
