The Cold Surgeon's Contract Bride novel Chapter 753

He stepped closer, taking my hand, and warned me with absolute sincerity, "Selena, don't get too close to Caspian. He's not a good guy, and he doesn't actually have feelings for you. He approached you with a hidden agenda. You need to be careful."

In hindsight, he had been telling the absolute truth, but the version of me in the dream was so unbelievably stubborn.

I didn't even let him finish before I cut him off, angrily accusing him, "Ferris, if you're going to lie, at least come up with a decent excuse. That lie is so pathetic I'm actually embarrassed for you."

A look of genuine surprise crossed his face, followed by a deep frown. "Selena, I'm not lying to you. Everything I'm saying is true. Caspian really does have an ulterior motive. You have to watch out for him. He is dangerous."

I didn't want to hear another word. I scoffed coldly, turned on my heel, and walked away, leaving Ferris standing alone in the shadows, looking completely utterly devastated.

"Selena, stop being an idiot!" I subconsciously muttered, cursing myself.

I wanted nothing more than to slap some sense into the foolish, oblivious version of myself.

But just as the words left my mouth, a gentle, warm hand cupped my cheek. A deeply magnetic, soothing voice echoed right beside my ear. "You weren't an idiot. My Selena is brilliant. Not an idiot at all."

It was Ferris's voice.

He felt like he was right beside me.

I forced my eyes open, and the first thing I saw was his strikingly handsome, gentle face.

It was Ferris.

He was looking down at me with a soft smile, his eyes shining with overwhelming relief. "Honey, you're finally awake. You slept for so long."

I stared at him blankly. The bright fluorescent light spilled down from above, casting a soft, angelic glow over his hair and shoulders.

He felt warm, calming.

Like a guardian angel.
