Rotten Twins: Making a CEO a Daddy novel Chapter 250

Felix asked, "How is it different? Isn’t happiness all the same?"

Lyla looked at him, unable to explain.

At that moment, Felix embraced her in his arms and said, "Lyla, will you stay with me? We’ll live like how we did before, okay? I can give you whatever he can. Please stay with me, Lyla!"

Lyla let him hug her and only spoke after a long time, "Felix, I'm sorry..."

Sorry...

This word clearly stated her choice and answer.

Felix hugged her arms and gradually loosened his embrace. He looked at her in agony and seemed to be waiting for her to change her mind at the last moment.

Lyla finally said, "I now have someone I want to accompany for the rest of my life."

Felix smiled.

That smile was painful to see and made her feel heartbroken.

Lyla frowned and said, "Felix, you’ll surely find that person too!"

After hearing this, Felix was quiet and stared into the distance, revealing his handsome side profile. The corners of his lips curled up mockingly, but Lyla could not tell what he was thinking about.

Lyla watched him silently as she did not know what to say nor how to comfort him.

Felix coldly snorted. "I don’t need you to plan my life out!"

Lyla had never seen this side of him with such a cold attitude and unfamiliar tone.

At that moment, she knew that Felix was angry.

Truly angry.

She pursed her lips and said, "I’m not planning anything for you. I just want you to have a bright future too!"

"I will!"

His tone was icy and he no longer wanted to continue this topic.

Lyla nodded and said, "Well, It's late, so I'll head back...Goodnight!"

She smiled, but seeing no response from him, Lyla turned around and walked away.

It was not until she disappeared from his sight that Felix picked up the bottle of white wine from the table and chugged it in one go. He then threw the bottle far away and it shattered on the ground.

Felix's hand was tightly gripping the railing that the veins on his arm and neck protruded out.

Lyla!

Why!

Why!

‘My love for you was never any less than his, but why did you choose him!!!’

......

Mark was just about to go out to look for Lyla, but just as he went out, he saw her return.

He looked at her worriedly and asked, "Where did you go?"

"I went to see Felix."

Mark's eyes narrowed slightly, but before he said something, Lyla spoke, "I have something to say to you."

"What?"

"Let's go home."

Mark looked at her and scrutinized her for a long time. Finally, he smiled and nodded as he said, "Okay, let's go back."

Lyla smiled faintly, but she looked at his injury and said, "But..."

Mark said with a smile, "This injury’s nothing. Besides, we’re going back by plane, not running back!"

Lyla reached out, wrapped his arms around his waist, and leaned her head on his chest as she said, "Okay, I miss home..."

"Then we'll go home."

She nodded. As long as Mark was around, she felt like she belonged.

They decided to leave.

Mark ordered his people to make arrangements. It would be good for them to leave as soon as possible. That way, if Angiulo’s people could not find them, they would stop finding trouble with Felix.

However, in the past two days, Felix disappeared.

Lyla wanted to say goodbye to him, but she simply could not find him anywhere.

In the end, she gave up.

Gretel had also recovered by then. Seeing that Lyla was sad, she asked, "Mommy, did something happen between you and Felix?"

Lyla looked back at her and said, "No, why?"

"How can there be nothing? You two are acting strange!"

"You've seen Felix?"

"He came to see me two nights ago."

Lyla was stunned.

"What did he say to you?"

"He didn't say anything. He just kept looking at me and smiled, but that smile looked a little..." Gretel thought of an adjective and continued, "...helpless!"

Lyla pursed her lips and did not know what to say.

Gretel actually knew that Felix had feelings for her mother, but she thought that Felix had accepted reality since Mark had appeared. She did not expect this...

Lyla looked at her and smiled. She said, "Alright, don't worry. Nothing’s going on!"

Gretel did not probe further seeing as Lyla refused to talk about it. She just nodded and said, "Okay!"

"Go pack your things then."

"Mm!"

No one could contact Felix.

There was still no news of him until the day Lyla left.

In the airport.

Mark looked at Lyla and said, "If you're still worried, we can wait another day."

Lyla turned to look at Mark, then smiled and said, "No, it’s alright. Since he chose this, just let him be."

"You finally thought it through?"

Lyla nodded.

She was thankful for everything that happened in the past, for Felix's appearance and the warmth he gave her.

Even if time passed and things changed, she would always keep this gratitude in her heart and had never regretted meeting him.

Nonetheless, if their relationship faded over time, she would not complain nor blame anyone because this was life.

Mark saw Lyla’s determination and did not push further. He said, “Well then, let’s go!”

Lyla nodded.

Gretel was with Hansel and Lingo.

She looked around and frowned lightly, then asked, "We’re really not waiting for Felix?"

Lyla smiled smugly and said, "I've always been lady-like!"

"Oh? Is that so?"

"Of course!"

"Why didn’t I ever notice it before?!"

"Because you’re blind!"

Finally, the sharp-tongued Lyla was back.

Mark looked at her with a gentle and doting gaze. He felt the urge to kiss her and said, "Then after we get back, let’s get married. Then you can be my good little wife, okay?"

Lyla smiled at these words. She averted her gaze and said, "I don't know what you're talking about!"

"You heard it clearly and understand what I mean."

Lyla turned to look at him and asked, "What if I refuse?"

"You won't!"

"You're that confident?"

"Yes!"

"Then I refuse!"

"Well then, I’ll just have to tie you up to attend the wedding!"

"Mark Pattinson, don’t you think you’re too overbearing?!"

"But you like it, don't you?" Mark asked while looking like quite the narcissist.

Lyla saw him and could not help but laugh. "Shameless!"

"You also like this side of me!"

She was speechless and refused to talk to him anymore.

At that moment, Mark leaned in towards her and said something coy in her ear that made her face flush.

"Mark Pattinson, you rascal!"

"I'm only a rogue to you--" Mark said, then mouthed the words, "in bed".

It was too bad that the plane’s windows were fixed. Otherwise, Lyla would have requested for him to be thrown off.

"I think you have a death wish!"

Lyla said this and was about to hit him, but at that moment, Mark grabbed her hand and kissed her on the lips.

"OMG!"

Gretel just happened to see this scene and her jaw dropped in shock.

Lingo glanced in that direction and helplessly shook her head. She said, "Your dad and mom really don’t know how to control themselves!"

Hansel was on the side and said, "In today's words, it’s called a flex. What do you know!"

Lingo retorted. “Flex then vexed!”

Hansel glared at her. Lingo pretended not to have said anything and continued with her game.

At that time, Mark let go of Lyla and said, "You promised me, so it’s too late to regret it now!"

"Since it’s too late to regret it, then I won’t!" Lyla looked at him and said.

They looked at each other and laughed.

She reached out to hug Mark's arm and leaned on his shoulder.
