Chapter 293
The man in his 30s knelt beside his mother and begged, but it didn’t move her the slightest or gain her attention.
My heart grew cold. My intuition told me that it was going to be difficult today.
“Mel, get up! What are you doing? If you have trouble, we can find a solution. You don’t need to do this. You are scaring Lulu.” Mom took Aunt Mel’s hand and attempted to help her up.
Aunt Mel didn’t even look at Mom. She broke free and started crying. “Lulu, please be merciful. Please save Felix. Only you can save him, please.”
She hugged me so tightly that I couldn’t break away at all. I was exhausted.
She had placed a huge burden on me, both mentally and physically.
“Aunt Mel, it’s the doctor’s job to save people. I can’t do it.” I managed to calm down and tried to reason with her.
Unfortunately, it was a futile hope.
Aunt Mel was like a gambler. She knew full well that the outcome was uncontrollable, but she persistently believed her choice was correct and
refused to look back.
She was betting for Colin to give in, that I would be soft-hearted, and that she could make her dreams come true in the end.
“No, you can do it! I’ve asked the fortune teller. He said Felix’s cure is you. As long as you’re with him, all his bad luck will dissipate. He’ll get better then.”
Hmph, she still wanted me to be with Felix, but why should I? Did I have any duty or obligation to save someone who didn’t want to live?
