Chapter 98
Soon, the food arrived, and Uncle Austin began encouraging everyone to eat. We all listened and started
to eat..
All four parents had different expressions on their faces as they ate quietly. Even Uncle Austin and my
dad, who would often drink together, were exceptionally quiet as they looked at their food. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“Lili, the fish and chips here are delicious. Have a bite.” Felix broke the silence and gave Lilac some of
his broccoli.
He told her about the fish and chips here. Yet he gave her broccoli instead.
It looked like Felix wasn’t as calm as he appeared to be.
Lilac didn’t eat the food on her plate. Instead, she was staring at Colin. “Felix, is this your big brother?”
Felix’s hands froze as he looked at Colin. Then, he said, “That’s right. He’s my brother. He graduated from Lincoln University. It’s the same school that Lulu goes to. Don’t you know my brother?
“Lulu, didn’t you bring Lili to meet Colin when she went to your university?”
I paused. I felt awful and couldn’t swallow the food in my mouth.
He was acting up again!
He was acting un
That was his own brother! Why didn’t he introduce Colin to her himself? Why did he have to drag me into
the conversation?
Whether Lilac knew Colin or not was the White’s problem. I have no obligation to introduce them to each
other! That is not my responsibility!
Felix was reprimanding me blindly again! Was something wrong with his brain?
I once questioned if I had been blind for the past few years.
Or not, why would I have thought that Felix was the best man in the world? Why would I have wanted to
marry him?
I was just about to retort when Colin held my hand.
He said with a sullen expression, “Who is Lilac? Why does Lulu need to introduce her to me? Do you think
any animal can meet me as they wish? Sorry. I don’t have the time for that.”
Colin’s retort was amazing!
Lilac had wanted to grow closer to the Whites. She never expected Colin to deny her that opportunity.
There was a mixture of emotions on her face.
Her hands trembled with anger and humiliation as she held her spoon. Her eyes Immediately turned red,
making her look like she was about to cry.
It also made her look pitiful.
It made sense. No matter how shameless someone was, they could not remain calm after being called
an animal.
Lilac looked aggrieved and was trying her best to hold it in. Felix felt his heart break when he saw that
and quickly slammed his cutlery on the table.
“Colin, how can you say that? Lilac is my girlfriend. She’s not an animal.”
“Oh, really?” Colin slowly looked up and looked at Felix. His gaze was cold and sharp. Even I could feel
the coldness in the air around him.
“She’s your girlfriend? Why did no one tell me? Since she’s your girlfriend, why didn’t you inform me she
was at Lincoln University? Do you not respect me?”
That was a great accusation!
I was delighted. Colin was amazing for supporting me.
Although it was for my sake, it wasn’t right for Colin and Felix to be at odds with each other. However,
Colin was only speaking the truth, right?
Not to mention, I never instigated Colin to do anything for me. With that–point in mind, I was innocent in
this dispute.
“You were busy with your studies. It wasn’t a big deal so I didn’t tell you about it. You just need to focus on yourself and take good care of Lulu. You don’t need to worry about anything else.”
