Chapter 1507

[ 563 words ]

She didn’t know how much of those words she could believe.

What if Harold was lying to her?

Would it be inappropriate for her to speak nonsense in front of his “true love”?

“Actually, Harold really loves you,” Felicia Bishop said, her lips curling into a soft chuckle.

Lorelei Bellamy looked up at Felicia, her eyes somewhat bewildered.

“To be honest, back in middle school, I confessed my feelings to him,” Felicia said, maintaining her smile. “But he rejected me right on the spot.”

Lorelei listened quietly, her emotions in a tangled knot.

“His reason for rejecting me was simple.” Felicia looked at Lorelei and continued, “He said he had already given his heart to a girl, and she was the only one he ever planned to marry.”

“I almost laughed when I heard that.”

Felicia’s lips hooked into a bitter smile. “I thought it was just teenage romance-who thinks that far ahead? How many middle school sweethearts actually make it down the aisle?”

“I never expected him to actually marry her.” Felicia’s smile faded, her expression turning earnest. “That’s when I realized the person he loved was you.”

Lorelei sat frozen, her mind going blank and a tingling sensation washing over her scalp.

“The person he liked was always me?” Lorelei opened her mouth, her voice coming out in a hoarse whisper.

“Yeah, the one he loved has always been you.” Felicia nodded. “From middle school until now. Only you.”

Lorelei remained stunned, momentarily losing her ability to process anything.

She had always believed Felicia was the woman he loved…

For the past three years, had she just been jealous of herself?

“So I was really curious. How could a man as fiercely loyal as him easily consider divorcing the woman he deeply loved?”

Felicia gave a wry smile. “Over the years, he pushed himself to the absolute limit researching Eleanor’s condition. He collapsed because he hadn’t slept for two days and two nights.”

“I once asked him why he pushed himself so hard.” Felicia sighed softly. “Because Eleanor’s case was incredibly complex.”

“He said…”

Felicia met Lorelei’s misty eyes and enunciated every word clearly, “If

anything happened to Eleanor

certain girl’s heart would break, and

he couldn’t bear to see her sad.”

“Lorelei, if you don’t hold onto a man this good and let him slip away, I’ll do whatever

it takes to win him back.”

Lorelei stared at her, her eyes trembling slightly.

Inside the hospital room.

Harold slowly opened his eyes to find himself lying on a hospital bed. His right leg wouldn’t move, his left arm was heavily bandaged, and his entire body ached.

It took him a few seconds to recall what had happened.

The door opened, and Shanley Schwartz, Juniper Payne, and Melvin Steele walked

in.

“Well, well.”

Seeing Harold awake, Melvin smirked, his tone teasing. “Looks like you executed

that sympathy card that fox Shanley taught you pretty well, huh?”

“These injuries on your arm, leg, and head-very evenly distributed!” “You taught him that?”

Juniper looked up at Shanley, her expression downright terrifying.

“I was just making a casual joke. I didn’t expect Dr. Houston to take it so literally,”

Shanley explained with a guilty shrug.

“Hahaha… Melvin laughed

obnoxiously loud. “Good thing that old fox didn’t teach him a suicide

mission, or else you’d have lost your life before you even got your wife back.”

“What are you laughing at? You act like you even have a wife!” Harold glared darkly Melvin His gaze freezing cold. “Oh, that’s right You don’t even have a girlfriend.”

The counterattack hit with a thousand percent lethality.

Melvin’s smile vanished instantly.
