Chapter 255

In fact, I purposefully chose to call out to Nicholas just now. I wanted to keep my distance from Shawn because I knew it was no longer possible for us to go back in time.

It wasn't because he stabbed me.

The main reason was my health…

It would be good for both of us to break up now.

In this way, we were both left with some dignity.

So, with my back to Shawn, I replied, "I choose Nicholas."

I then brought Nicholas back to the room earlier. After entering the room, I went to the bathroom, found a hot towel, and handed it to him.

He took it and draped it across his face. "I'm sorry," he stated. "I said all of that earlier to irritate him."

"It's fine; I made use of you just now as well."

I used him to distance myself from Shawn.

Nicholas understood why I did it, but his gaze remained dimmed. "I know you did so because of your health condition, just like you did two years ago… But you didn't push me away at the time; instead, you wanted to have a romantic relationship with me. Why don't you have the guts to do the same thing now?"

"You didn't love me at the time," I replied as I stared at him.

Nicholas fell silent when he heard that.

He didn't love me. Thus, having a relationship with him didn't matter to me. At the very least, he wouldn't be in much pain when I left.

But Shawn loved me. I didn't want him to go through the agony of losing me. When it was time for me to leave the world, I would cut all ties with him and hide from him.

"Apply heat to your wounds for now. May should be here. I'm going to look for her."

I quickly exited the room and went downstairs. As I approached the lower floor, I noticed May surrounded by a group of wealthy young ladies.

They were all laughing, except May, who was standing in the middle. Her face was pale as if she had suffered great grievances.

Just as I went closer to them, I heard one of the young ladies ask, "Where's Ms. Hannah? Wasn't she here earlier?"

Hannah?!

Are they talking about Rudy's fiancée?

As no one responded to the lady, she turned around and looked at May. "Do you have any idea where Hannah is? You should know since you're so close with Rudy!"

She was making insinuations against May.

However, May denied it as she muttered, "I have no idea."


"How could that be? You are his 'good friend', no?"

Those younger ladies had no idea what the lady meant, whereas the older ladies began mocking May. "What you're wearing today is not more than 500, I guess?" said the lady who started it all.

She paused for a moment before continuing, "Didn't Rudy provide for you?"

At this point, May couldn't take it anymore and retorted, "It's none of your business even if my gown is only a hundred! Who are you to make such statements? You can't even get within five feet of Rudy!"













































When I heard that, I rejoiced. Great! May's retaliation is perfect!

The young lady immediately turned pale, much like May. With an angry expression, she then raised her hand, ready to slap May hard.

Seeing this, I quickly grabbed May's arm and yanked her away. The slap landed in the air, and the young lady's face turned even more enraged when she saw someone backing May up.

She stared at me for a few moments before recognizing who I was. "Oh, it's Ms. Felix. Why does your gown appear to be from a street stall?"

Before responding, I smiled at May and assured her, "It's okay."

Then, I turned around and began my retaliation against the young lady. "It's none of your concern. You are well aware that I can afford any gown I desire, so what is the point of mocking me in this manner? Do you think I'm like you, who needs to hesitate for something slightly more expensive?"

"You!" yelled the young lady, furiously pointing her finger at me.

I sneered in response. "You're no match for me at all!"

This time, my words truly infuriated her. She dashed toward us, but she didn't dare to touch me. As a result, May was her primary prey.

Joseph wanted to stop her, but I instructed him not to get involved.

I kicked the young lady quickly, leaving a fresh footprint on her snowy-white gown. Despite this, she still did not dare to do anything to me, and instead directed her gang by saying, "Give May Sommer a hard time!"

I was the one who infuriated her, but now they were planning to attack May.

Their actions exemplified how society was.

The stronger ones always chose the weaker ones for them to bully.

From my sidelong glance, I noticed two men on the upper floor, watching what was going on as if it was none of their business. Thus, I yelled, "Rudy Adams! Are you going to help your woman? If not, you better stay away from her for the rest of your life!"

At this instant, I unexpectedly saw Shawn smiling for reasons I didn't understand.
