After waiting for about ten minutes, he finally entered the hospital room.

Listina's complexion was far from rosy, and her eyes instantly reddened.

"You never used to bring anyone to visit me. Do you like her or something?"

"No, I don't."

He took a seat beside her, deftly peeling an apple with practiced ease.

Listina couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy, "She's pretty, with a nice vibe about her. How did you two end up colleagues?”

"She used to be a rich girl, but her family went bankrupt.”

Listina let out a sigh of relief. That explained the aura of affluence she seemed to carry.

"Felix, you should probably keep your distance from her. I've heard those rich girls can be quite the handful, and I'm worried she’s

set her sights on you. You're no match for her games."

Felix continued peeling the apple in silence, not responding to her comment.

Listina felt uneasy. Over the years, she had grown accustomed to Felix's care. His mother, before she passed away, had made him

promise to marry Listina and take good care of her.

parents. Felix's father didn't survive either, and the shock was too much for his mother, who took her own life right in front of him.
