Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother novel Chapter 469

Felix's eyes changed a little, but they quickly returned calm.

He smiled and said, "Aunt Harper, these vegetables were picked from the small garden. My mom said they're pretty good, so she asked me to bring some over. They're quite fresh."

"Oh? Well, that's nice," Mom took the bag from Felix and opened it to take a look. She waved him in and said, "I'll keep the vegetables. By the way, I just baked some bread, so bring it home to your mom, okay?"

After we moved here, no one had been taking care of the old house's garden. I heard that Uncle Austin and Aunt Mel had been taking care of it on our behalf. They would always send some harvest over.

Felix listened to Mom's words and obediently responded. He sat on the couch, politely maintaining some distance between us.

He gave me a faint smile, and I returned with a stiff one.

We just looked at each other in silence.

Suddenly, I realized that six years had passed. We had gone from being companions to strangers. The atmosphere became unusually cold for a moment.

To be honest, there wasn't much hatred. After all, everything had passed and we had talked things through. There was nothing to hold a grudge over. But I just couldn't find that feeling from before, the feeling of being completely unbothered by whatever he did.

Time changed, seasons changed, and the winds and rains came and went. Nothing stayed the same.

Ever since that Thanksgiving six years ago, Felix and I had gone our separate ways without looking back.

"I'll resume my classes in September," he coughed slightly and said.

"Oh, will you continue your studies, or do you need to retake some papers?"

"I've finished last semester's courses, and my grades were good. After talking to my teachers, it seems I don't have to retake anything."
