Chapter 304

"Felix." Evelyn called out, unable to hold back when he didn't respond. Hearing her voice, Felix finally lifted his head, eyes locked on hers. "Evelyn, are you trying to cut me off?" "Is it because of Mom, Dad, and Emily?" He couldn't hold it in anymore—that question had been gnawing at him. Felix had no idea what chaos had gone down at home since he'd been living at school, but one thing he did know was that the vibe between Evelyn and their parents had long been tense. Especially when their parents lashed out at Evelyn right in front of him—those scenes always made him frown and feel uneasy. They were all George's kids. Felix just couldn't figure out why their dad treated him and Emily with endless patience, but when it came to Evelyn, it was like she was the enemy. And those words... God, so vicious and cruel, like they came from someone who hated her guts. That's mostly why Felix hated coming home. He honestly thought his parents ugly-faced rage was just too much to bear sometimes.
