Chapter 662 Ray, Are You Sad?

Ezekiel was a thoughtful person who never said anything that would put me in a difficult situation. He was an eloquent speaker, always finding the right words. But now he claimed that I didn't understand him!

His words affected me, and I found myself suddenly speechless. I wasn't sure where I went wrong. I thought about it and remembered how he had always stressed that he was neither wronged nor pitiful, but I had always felt sorry for him.

I was wrong to feel that way, but I did not think he was pitiful.

I was just sorry that he had been mistreated.

At this moment, I was at a loss for words to comfort him. I sat silently on the sofa, and he did the same, and we stayed that way for a while.

After more than ten minutes, Ezekiel turned to me and apologized, "Sorry."

He wasn't at fault, but he was apologizing.

"Ezekiel, it's my fault."

He asked me, "How is it your fault, Ms. Felix?"

Upon hearing that, I couldn't bring myself to say anything.

He rubbed his forehead and said, "Why are you admitting fault when there isn't any? Are you worried that you'll upset me? I know you care about my feelings, but Ms. Felix, I don't want you to walk on eggshells around me. Besides, I've always emphasized that I don't feel wronged. Why would I feel that? In everyone's eyes, I am a powerful person with everything. Maybe in terms of relationships, I couldn't have the person I wanted, but so what? I remember that you had a crush on someone for nine years. How did you feel back then? Did you want Christopher to be cautious around you? You've always been unclear about what I want, and you never understood me… Sorry, I shouldn't have said these things. I have no right to say this to you, but your attitude has always been…"

If I had a crush on someone, I wouldn't want them to tread carefully around me. I would sincerely not want them to act in that manner, even if it had nothing to do with love.

Ezekiel suddenly stopped. "Sorry, I probably went too far, but please don't think that I was wronged or that I'm pitiful."

"I apologize. I don't find you pitiful."

"I'm all right, Ms. Felix. You may go about your business."

Ezekiel appeared to be extremely worn out and his mental state was extremely unstable. He was suppressing himself. I sat in silence and didn't get up because it seemed unfair to leave at this time.

At this moment, he and I were putting our patience to the test.

"Ms. Felix, aren't you leaving?"

"Francesca's funeral should be the day after tomorrow," I said.

Ezekiel looked puzzled and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Can I stay here for today?"

I didn't think it was right for two unmarried people to share a space, but Ezekiel was a man who knew how to keep his distance, so I didn't mind.

"Of course, Ms. Felix. I'm going to go freshen up," he replied, getting up and walking back to his room.

It wasn't completely dark yet, and I remembered that my phone was still in my room. I got up and knocked on the door, and after a moment, Ezekiel opened it and asked, "Do you need anything?"

He could see right through me.

"Is my phone in there?" I asked.

Ezekiel turned around, picked up my phone from the bedside, and handed it to me. I thanked him and went back to the sofa.

Originally, I was going to ask Gary about Francesca's funeral, but then I thought of Colin, who was still at the old house.

He hadn't gotten in touch with me in a few days, so I knew he had already left Eldham.

I decided to call Colin first, and he answered, "Oh hey, you remember me!"

I asked him, "Where are you?"
