The Cold Surgeon's Contract Bride novel Chapter 713

Looking at their warm, encouraging smiles, I hesitated before slowly reaching out my hand.

"That's it. A person shouldn't trap themselves in the past. You have to be brave, take a step forward, and walk into the light."

"Come, Selena, let me guide you."

But the moment I reached out, the voice in my ear shifted.

It wasn't my parents. It was him.

I snapped my head up. My parents had somehow vanished into the distance, and the person standing before me with an outstretched hand was entirely different.

It was Ferris, wearing a captivating smile.

He smiled with gentle encouragement. "Come on, Selena. Let me take you out into the sun."

Why was it Ferris?

I didn't want to go with him.

I quickly tried to pull my hand back, but it was too late. Ferris had already captured my fingers, pulling me effortlessly into the sunlight.

His fingers intertwined tightly with mine, radiating a scorching heat. "Look, the flowers are blooming over there. Let's go see them, yeah?"

"I'm not going!" I snapped.

I struggled fiercely to break free, but his grip was like iron, impossible to pry open.

Desperate, I turned to my parents for help. "Dad, help me."

I didn't want to go with Ferris.

That scumbag only ever broke my heart.

I refused to repeat my past mistakes.

I was terrified that after this fleeting sweetness and warmth, Ferris would suddenly turn cold again, plunging my heart straight into an icy abyss and destroying my ability to love forever.
