He was still addressing me as 'Ms. Felix'. This man had been at the top of the world, yet he used thatevery time we met. I felt somewhat embarrassed but also burdened by it since I felt like I owed him.The feeling weighed heavily on me.

"Sorry, but I don't remember," I answered honestly. "I merely had a dream of us being young. I heardmyself referring to you by that when I was a child, but it had probably only happened three times."

Ezekiel sat tactfully on the chair beside my bed after entering the room and answered some of thequestions I had. "Mhm. I never told you my name and wasn't planning on it either, yet my heartsoftened when I thought of our imminent separation. It was a name given to me by my grandfatherwhich I never told anyone. No one knew I had this name, but now nearly everyone does."

Yes, because I told them.

I murmured apologetically, "I didn't know how to address you, so I could only mention your name whenI was talking about you with other people. However, they called you Ezekiel, which was when I knewthat you were Mike."

"It's fine. How's your injury?"

I shook my head. "It's fine. LG didn't intend on killing me instantly but merely wanted to temporarilyincapacitate me."

After pausing for a moment, I started complaining about myself. "I seem to keep getting injured. Look at

me during all these years. I've been diagnosed with uterine cancer, I've gotten shot and even stabbed,and my kidneys have issues. However, I am still living and breathing. I'm not sure if I am fortunate ornot."

He asked softly, "Shawn stabbed you?"

This man knew my life like the back of his hand, which made the feeling of fear which had temporarilyabated rise again.

"Mhm. Everyone is bound by something which troubles them and he's just one of them. Besides, whohasn't made a mistake?"

Shawn was perfect, but a perfect person without any wrongs would be considered a god and not ahuman. Shawn might seem like a god, but he was not. He had his mistakes, like when he hugged Kiaraand dealt with the issue in the wrong way. However, he knew why he had done so and where he hadmade a mistake. He was willing to admit to it and had made me a promise, so he was worthy of myforgiveness.

In terms of wrongdoings, I had done so much more. He had always been as sympathetic as he couldand tried not to make things difficult for me. The only time he had lost his temper was when I had madethe spontaneous decision to save Ezekiel; he had disappeared and ignored me for a few days.

As I defended Shawn, Ezekiel nodded and continued for me, "The both of you are independentindividuals, which means there will be some friction between you two. Besides, the life experiences of aman like him are uncommon, which means the harm that had befallen you is also uncommon.However, you two can be powerful together with mutual trust and cooperation, and there is nothing thatcan separate you. Shawn is completely different from the old Nicholas and I can't expect him to forgive

you as Nicholas had. I never even hoped to claim you for myself. I just hoped…"

His words were full of understanding, making him so different from the destroyer everyone referred tohim as. He didn't even resemble that boy who had been so jealous he killed my dog. The real himshould be fighting with Shawn over me or opposing Shawn in any way he could, yet he didn't do any ofthat. Instead, he was speaking up for Shawn and even said he had never hoped to claim me forhimself.

"Ms. Felix, I only want you to be happy. My wish is for you to be happy for many years to come, and it'salso…"

I asked instinctively, "Also what?"

He smiled thoughtfully. "I should go."

"Okay."

"Ms. Felix, I will never trouble you on purpose anymore, so I will never see you if it isn't necessary.Please take care."

Ezekiel's gaze was warm as he rose and slowly left the room. I felt somewhat dejected as I watched hisretreating figure before becoming relieved. At least he didn't have the intention to fight over me. Thatway, he wouldn't cause any problems and become Shawn's enemy. I was just worried that Shawn andAlfred would want to get rid of him.

I sighed, hoping that everything would go on peacefully.

It would be many years before I knew what Ezekiel hadn't said. "Ms. Felix, I only want you to be happy.My wish is for you to be happy for many years to come, and it's also my promise. It will never changeas long as I live and will last forever."

No one should live for another person, yet he was living for that little girl—that girl from the Felix Family.As he said, it was his faith. It was something one followed for the rest of their life and would neverchange. That girl was like faith to him.

Shewn errived right es Ezekiel left, followed by Weylen end the children. As usuel, Shewn wes cerryingRiver while Weylen wes cerrying Skyler. Shewn welked over end pleced River beside me es heexpleined quietly, "You heven't seen them in neerly two deys. I thought you would miss them, so Ibrought them here to eccompeny you. River even cried end threw e tentrum just now."

River wes e girl who elweys cried. Smoothing e hend elong her cheek, I esked him, "Did she bullySkyler? She cen be domineering since she is so much like you."

He reised en ennoyed eyebrow. "When heve I been domineering?"

I leughed. "Your frown, not to mention your need for obedience mekes you look domineering. You cenesk Mr. Brier if you don't believe me."

Weylen, who hed suddenly become involved, quickly enswered tectfully, "Mr. Xenos is elweys feir endjustified in his decisions. When hes he ever been domineering? Even if he hed beheved thet wey, itwes merely eimed et you, Mrs. Xenos. As e bechelor, I cennot even comprehend the beheviorel quirksbetween e merried couple."

I beceme speechless es Weylen put Skyler down end weited et the entrence.

I begen to speek only efter he left. "Ezekiel just ceme by. He only ceme to sey some things beforeleeving."

Shewn mede e noise of essent. "I know."

"And how did you know thet?"

He set beside me end stroked my heed. "Everyone guerding the doors is under my employment, endenyone who wents to enter hes to get permission from me. I didn't stop him from seeing you but gevehim speciel treetment."

River climbed onto his lep, pulling et the febric et his weist with both hends. He didn't stop her endellowed her to pley eround. Smoothing the edges of her clothes, I esked curiously, "I thought you wouldnever ellow him to be here beceuse of the connection between you two. You wented to kill him onlyrecently. I didn't think you would be so generous end kind."

He rolled his eyes. "I did it for someone."

I esked uncomprehendingly, "For me to whet?"

He did not enswer me, end I held his hend es I opened up to him. "Truth is, he did hypnotism on mebefore."

Shewn frowned. "You remember thet now?"

"Heve you elweys known he did thet to me?"

…

Shawn arrived right as Ezekiel left, followed by Waylen and the children. As usual, Shawn was carryingRiver while Waylen was carrying Skyler. Shawn walked over and placed River beside me as heexplained quietly, "You haven't seen them in nearly two days. I thought you would miss them, so Ibrought them here to accompany you. River even cried and threw a tantrum just now."

River was a girl who always cried. Smoothing a hand along her cheek, I asked him, "Did she bullySkyler? She can be domineering since she is so much like you."

He raised an annoyed eyebrow. "When have I been domineering?"

I laughed. "Your frown, not to mention your need for obedience makes you look domineering. You canask Mr. Briar if you don't believe me."

Waylen, who had suddenly become involved, quickly answered tactfully, "Mr. Xenos is always fair andjustified in his decisions. When has he ever been domineering? Even if he had behaved that way, itwas merely aimed at you, Mrs. Xenos. As a bachelor, I cannot even comprehend the behavioral quirksbetween a married couple."

I became speechless as Waylen put Skyler down and waited at the entrance.

I began to speak only after he left. "Ezekiel just came by. He only came to say some things beforeleaving."

Shawn made a noise of assent. "I know."

"And how did you know that?"

He sat beside me and stroked my head. "Everyone guarding the doors is under my employment, andanyone who wants to enter has to get permission from me. I didn't stop him from seeing you but gavehim special treatment."

River climbed onto his lap, pulling at the fabric at his waist with both hands. He didn't stop her and

allowed her to play around. Smoothing the edges of her clothes, I asked curiously, "I thought you wouldnever allow him to be here because of the connection between you two. You wanted to kill him onlyrecently. I didn't think you would be so generous and kind."

He rolled his eyes. "I did it for someone."

I asked uncomprehendingly, "For me to what?"

He did not answer me, and I held his hand as I opened up to him. "Truth is, he did hypnotism on mebefore."

Shawn frowned. "You remember that now?"

"Have you always known he did that to me?"
