FreeNovelChapter 286 It was Colin. As soon as | answered the phone, | could hear his trembling voice.
“Lulu, Felix fell into the lake... He almost drowned. He's under rescue now, but his vital signs are weak...” Before | hung up the call, | heard loud knockings on my door. | could also hear Aunt Mel's cries through the door.
Wasn't Felix so sick that he couldn’t even walk? How did he get out? He learned to swim in the gym and even won swimming competitions in the district. How could he have almost drowned? Why was there a lake in the hospital? It had only been a night, so how did he beclike this? How could this happen? My thoughts were so messy that | felt like | had a splitting headache.
Felix remained unconscious for the next two days, relying on an IV drip to keep his vital signs stable.
Colin and Dad visited the doctor several times to inquire about Felix’s condition. The results were surprisingly consistent.
“The patient has no significant physical issues, but we suspect that he has a serious psychological disorder.

Perhaps he doesn’t want to confront a specific reality, so he chooses to sleep to escape it.” The doctor said that we needed to identify the source of the problem.
Healing Felix’s psychological disorder would wake him up.
With this news, the Lawsons and Whites were anguished. Everyone stayed in the hospital, hoping for a miracle to occur.
Four days later, Felix remained unconscious. Apart from occasionally murmuring my nand askingnot to leave, he was completely unaware of the outside world.
Following the injury, he lost weight, and his skin was pale to the point of being translucent. He lay quietly, much like Sleeping Beauty from the fairy tale.
Colin accompanied Felix by the hospital bed throughout the day and night. With sunken eyes, he appeared listless, as if he were in a dark place.
| commuted between my hand the hospital every day. Mom expressed her concern that | had lost much weight.
Everyone was doing all they could for Felix’s health. Only he, who was guarding the fantasy of nothingness, refused to awaken.
Colin's expression darkened every time Felix murmured my name, and my anxiety grew.
My heart ached as | saw Colin becwithdrawn and gaunt from worry.
However, there was nothing | could do except stay with him.
| spent the last two days reviewing everything that had transpired in the past six months. | knew the source of Felix’s problem, but | had no idea how to get him to wake up voluntarily.
Lilac’s betrayal and leaving surely hurt him deeply. He couldn't bear the sorrow and despair, so he forced himself to return to the past, especially before he met her.

What he said that day wasn’t forbut for 18-year-old Luna and 19-year- old Felix.
That year, he was young and carefree, and | used to follow him. Perhaps he yearned for the youngerbecause | only focused on him back then. He believed I could replace the emotional void created by Lilac’s leaving.
In other words, he subconsciously wanted to useto treat his emotional, wounds.
I understood, and | assumed Colin did as well. Otherwise, he wouldn't suffer so much.
During these days, he smoked a lot. He seemed to lose hope and support without the cigarettes.
| felt sad for Colin and didn’t want him to be uncomfortable. | didn’t want to be Lilac’s replacement, let alone have any involvement with Felix.
However, | might not have a choice when it cto Felix’s life, even if | was unwilling to grant his wish.
