Female Novel
Chapter 1106
Felix figured that Carol probably wouldn't be coming home tonight, so he got up.novelbin
"I'm on my way."
"Felix, are you dating that Carol?"
Carol had been spotted at the hospital many times, and she seemed genuinely concerned about
Listina, tolerating her tantrums and all.
Listina couldn't stand a woman like her being around Felix. After all, she was Felix's fiancée; they just
hadn't announced their relationship yet.
Felix had been diligently working all these years to pay for Listina's medical bills.
"No, we're just good friends. Listina, I'm coming over now to take care of you. Don't overthink this. You
still need to rest in the hospital."
Hearing this, Listina seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and her tone softened.
"I know. You're always good to me, Felix."
Felix got out of bed and started to dress.
As he was leaving, he saw Carol coming back.
Carol was a stunner. Even in the roughest of clothes, she was still a beautiful woman.
She had forgotten her key and was about to knock when she saw Felix had already dressed and was
heading out. It was the middle of the night. Where was he going?
"Felix, where are you going?"
Felix furrowed his brows, then pulled her into his arms.
"Listina's not feeling well. I'm going to check on her."
Carol had paid for Listina's operation. So far, it had cost her a few hundred thousand dollars.
She did it because Listina was Felix's distant cousin, and she had a bad temper, always speaking
weirdly.
Carol had never confronted her about it. She liked Felix, so naturally, she had to be nice to Listina.
And she had heard that Listina's parents and Felix's had died in the same car accident. Since then,
Listina had been living with Felix, relying heavily on him.
Carol couldn’t be too harsh on a girl who had lost her parents, lest it caused a rift with Felix.
But now, in the dead of night, Felix was heading to the hospital to care for Listina, and Carol couldn't
help but feel a twinge of jealousy.
"Felix, don't you think you're being too nice to your distant cousin?"
Every time Listina called, Felix would rush to her side.
Carol had been holding this in for a while, and today was the first time she had brought it up.
Felix furrowed his brows, holding her tighter.
"I'm sorry, Carol. I know you've been putting up with a lot because of me. I'm sorry. Once Listina is
better, I'll work more jobs and hire a nurse to care for her."
Carol felt a pang of guilt. Felix's parents had also passed away. His father had died in the same
accident as Listina's parents, and his mother had taken her own life shortly after.
Because of his tragic background, Carol couldn't bring herself to be too hard on him. And Felix was
hard working, always juggling multiple jobs. The money he earned was spent on Listina and her, and
Carol couldn't find fault with that.
She couldn't possibly compete with his family.
"Felix, I just think that she's grown up now. She can't rely on you for everything. You work so many
jobs, I worry about you."
She had often thought about revealing her rich heiress identity to him. That way, she could openly
provide for him.
But Felix was so proud. Many women had offered to support him, but he had rejected all of them.
When Carol first met him at the bar, she was attracted to his look, just like those other women. But now,
she was head over heels for him.
He had given her the most thrilling experience in bed, and he was handsome, ambitious, and
hardworking. So what if he was poor now?
In Carol's eyes, the last thing she was short of was money, so when she looked for a man, she never
considered wealth.
