Nathan hastily tugged at Listina's hand as soon as the words left her mouth.

"Listina, Felix is with Carol only because of you. Remember that jeweler who bought out your family's business? That's Carol's dad.

The surgeons for your operation were all brought in by the Miller family's influence. Felix is just playing with her to save you. He

loves you, and the over 100 thousand dollars for your surgery? That was Carol's money. She has no idea; Felix has been deceiving

her all along. You're the one who truly matters to him. Now that your surgery's a success, he's bound to break up with Carol."

Tears had already been streaming down Listina's cheeks, but at these words, hope shone in her eyes as she gazed at Felix.

"Is it true? Felix, you're with her just to gettreatment?"

Before Felix could respond, Nathan interjected eagerly.

"Carol's been nothing but a pathetic pawn from the start. Her father was behind that accident years ago, and he took over your

company. Felix isn't foolish enough to overlook that. Just the other week, he was tellingabout his plan to swindle a share of the

Miller family's stock, all to ensure a comfortable life for the two of you. What the Millers owe you, they can never repay."

Quickly wiping away her tears, Listina grabbed Felix's hand.

"Felix, I need to hear it from you. You and Carol, it's just a fling, right?"

Felix met her gaze and after a long moment, he uttered, "Yeah."

Joy exploded in Listina's eyes, and a triumphant smile curled her lips. That tramp was just a tool, a pawn being played! The thought
