Vicki looked at Felix intently, then suddenly pulled him in front of her, unabashedly touching his chest.
Felix was taken aback. He was a man, and he felt a bit embarrassed by her actions. He didn't know what she was up to. Her movements were bold, direct, and provocative.
Vicki asked, "Are you in pain now? Rayan's attack was heavy. Usually, it may not look serious on the surface, but it often causes severe internal injuries. I see that you have complete equipment here, so you should get a CT scan too, to check if your ribs are fractured."
Felix grabbed her hand. "Are you concerned about me? Do you worry about me?"
Vicki didn't answer.
Felix caressed her cheek. "You took a bullet for me, and yet you're asking if I'm in pain. Please don't ask anymore. Even if I'm not in pain here," he pointed to his chest, "my heart is hurting." In fact, he had suffered internal injuries, so Vicki's concern was not unfounded.
"Okay, I won't ask anymore," Vicki shrugged.
Her action had affected the freshly bandaged wound, and she couldn't help but frown.
"You mentioned Rayan just now, is he Cloud?" Felix asked with confusion.
"Yes. He used to be called Rayan, but later changed his name to Cloud. But I'm used to calling him Rayan," Vicki explained.
"Then, you and him..." Felix hesitated.
Vicki looked deeply into Felix's eyes. "We've known each other since we were kids."
Felix suddenly held Vicki's hands tightly. "Vicki, what's going on with Seren? What has he done to you?" He had wanted to ask for a long time, but he had held back until now. He didn't know what had happened to Vicki in the past.
After asking, he clearly felt Vicki's hands trembling fiercely.
It was an instinctive fear.
He had never seen any traces of fear on Vicki before. She was different from ordinary women, and this was the first time he clearly felt her hands trembling. It meant that something extremely terrifying must have happened in the past; otherwise, with Vicki's unyielding demeanor, she would never show such signs.
Vicki didn't answer, her lips pressed tightly together, and her serious expression revealed her current strength to endure.
Felix sighed softly. "If you don't want to say, I won't force you. But what I want to say is, although Seren is my cousin, I have no connection with him. The Saunders family is huge, and there are many people. We don't even see each other once a year. The infamous things he has done really have nothing to do with me."
No matter what happened in the past, he just wanted to distance himself from it.
"Vicki, why did you choose to be with me? Is it because you wanted to take revenge on the Saunders family?" Felix hesitated and didn't continue. If Vicki's initial purpose was to get close to him and infiltrate the Saunders family for revenge, then what kind of mindset did she have towards him during these four years? Was it just using him? Did she never have any feelings? That's why she always refused to marry him?
Vicki felt a bit tired as she leaned against the bed.
"I want to sleep. Can you please be quiet?" she said.
Felix "..."
Was she avoiding his question? Could it be that she really got close to him pretending to take revenge?
But he was already deeply involved, and he couldn't be without her. At this moment, his heart felt incredibly lost and had nowhere to rest.
Vicki slowly closed her eyes. "Do you have any spare clothes? Help me change into a comfortable nightgown. I want to sleep."
Felix got up. "Okay, I'll get them."
He found one of his short-sleeved pajama sets from the wardrobe. Vicki wasn't much shorter than him, so she should be able to wear his pajamas.
Felix looked at her tempting lips and suddenly felt a surge of heat in his mind. He held the back of her head and kissed her directly. He kissed away the remnants of congee at the corner of her lips, then delved deeper, absorbing everything about her. He had wanted to do this for a long time.
She had evaded his question.
He didn't know what she really thought.
Even though she took a bullet for him, he was still deeply afraid. Afraid that she was just using him, and even more afraid of losing her.
He kissed her for a long time before finally letting go of Vicki.
Breathing heavily, he looked into her eyes. He had considered it just now; even if she deliberately got close to him to seek revenge on the Saunders family, he would accept it.
"Vicki," Felix said seriously, "if you want to take revenge on the Saunders family, I won't stop you. I can even help you."
He hugged her tightly. "Just don't leave me. Marry me, okay?"
Vicki patted Felix's shoulder, her voice cold. "Let go. I'm really tired."
Felix quickly released her, not daring to push too hard.
Vicki lay down, leaning against the comfortable pillow. She turned to the side that wasn't injured, perfectly with her back to Felix.
Closing her eyes, she spoke clearly, one word at a time. "Seren is Seren, and you are you. I have never confused the two."
Felix was once again stunned. He wanted to ask again.
But he heard her even breathing beside him. She had fallen asleep...

The readers' comments on the novel: Wrong marriage and sweet love (Joyce and Luther)
Why has all the names changed from english name to Chinese, It’s difficult to understand who is who...
If this is the ending of this story the story then I wish I hadn’t started reading it doesn’t even end right has not closure. To bad these writers don’t put much into their endings....
When will the new chapters come I can't wait any longer...
Very strange ending, is Joyce pregnant again or does she still have remnants of the devil with her. Christian should have apologized and made up with Luther and Felix. Too much violence and twists and turns, once settled, everyone should be happy and healthy....
Omg… can’t you just let Luther and Joyce live in peace with their children….another controversy doesn’t add to the story....
Not again, ugh … just get rid of this disgusting despicable woman...
Hopefully the underground bio lab East523will be found soon and Luther will make a full recovery, Lily will be reunited with the family and all will be good. Otherwise this will be a very disappointing story....
Please don’t make more trouble for Joyce and Luther, they need to have their children and be happy...
Looking forward to Joyce shooting Otis where it will hurt him the most and end his disgusting ways with women. He’s a pig, deserves to lose his “unit”....
Just tell him you’re the one that saved him , not the evil woman and find your beautiful love story together. Quit being a wet blanket, too smart for that....
