Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother novel Chapter 289

Chapter 289 

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, followed by an uncontrollable cough. He coughed for a long time as if he wished to clear out all his worries. 

The psychological pressure on Colin had been too much. 

Felix was finally rescued. The doctors advised us to take careful care of him. If this happened again, they might not be able to save him. 

After getting Felix in the ward, Aunt Mel pulled Colin out. 

Felix was sweaty, so the nurse instructed us to wipe him down. Uncle Austin

retrieved some warm water, twisted out a clean towel, lifted Felix’s hospital gown, and cleaned him. 

My parents left the ward and were resting on a bench in the corridor. I couldn’t keep standing there and watch Uncle Austin wipe Felix’s body, so I left the ward to find somewhere to relax. 

Too many things had happened recently, and it swirled around Felix. Each of them was inextricably linked to me and weighed me down. 

The building of the hospital was L–shaped. Turning right at the end of the corridor revealed a sunlit passage to the outpatient clinic. There was a 

terrace with windows, but few people went there.
