Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother novel Chapter 282

Chapter 282

I was appalled to see Felix in this state.

Only love could reduce someone to this worrying state, though I wonder who he loved.

He was sound asleep. The crowd in his room failed to rouse him.

A bowl of chicken soup lay dormant on the cabinet next to the headboard. Felix never even touched it.

I glanced at Colin. He led me to the stool next to Felix’s bed.

I poked Felix’s bare arm, which was resting on top of his blanket. “Felix, wake up. It’s time to eat.”

There was no response.

“Felix, it’s me, Luna. Can you hear me? Wake up now. Eat while the food is still warm.”

I called out several times, but there was no reaction.

Melinda covered her mouth and sobbed on her husband’s chest. Mom sighed deeply, and Colin’s eyes turned glossy.

Just when everyone thought all hope was lost, Felix’s eyes fluttered open.

“Honey, Felix is awake!” exclaimed Austin. Everyone turned to look at Felix.

He blinked his eyes and scanned the room with great difficulty. Then, his gaze fell on me. “Lulu, is that you?”

His voice was creaky like someone suddenly pushed a hundred-year-old

rusty gate.

“Yes, I’m here.”

“Lulu, I’m hungry. Can you feed me?”

It was at that exact moment that I realized Felix was well awake all this

He had difficulty swallowing because he hadn’t had anything for days. Yet he made sure he swallowed every spoonful of soup. His eyes were fixated on me as if he was afraid that I might vanish in the next second.

I had never been scrutinized this intensely before, so I felt uneasy. I wanted to run away, but I couldn’t ignore Melinda’s request either. I mustered whatever patience I had left and did my best to pretend that his burning

gaze wasn’t there.

He couldn’t force me to love him. Did he not understand that?

“It’s so delicious, Lulu.” Light began to return to Felix’s eyes.

“Have more, then.” Melinda patted his head affectionately but also v

sorrow.

It took Felix more than 20 minutes to finish the bowl of chicken sou

During the feeding, Melinda cried several times out of joy.
