Chapter 588 Determine the Truth

“Why would I want to marry into the Powell family? Felix, our deal was simple: I help you walk again. Now that you’re healed, we’re done. We should not meet again in the future.”

She turned on her heel, determined to leave.

“Honestly, it’s not your call. You think I’ll let you walk away that easily?”

Felix followed her and blocked her path. “A man who can’t make up his mind is not worth your time. If you’re not satisfied with my family, the Aniston family isn’t much better.”

“Besides,” Felix continued, his hand resting on her shoulder, “I did save your life tonight. At least don’t be in such a hurry to cut ties.”

At that moment, Chandler and Rachel reached the door to the lounge.

Rachel trailed behind, protesting. “Chandler, I’m telling you, she’s not here…”

Her words faltered when they reached the entrance.

Hearing their footsteps, Felix pulled Meryl into a sudden embrace.

Caught off guard, Meryl stiffened. Felix’s tall frame meant her face was pressed against his chest, just below his shoulder. From that angle, her eyes locked with Chandler’s through the doorway.

For a brief moment, their gazes held. Meryl could clearly see the shock in Chandler’s eyes.

Felix leaned down slightly and whispered into her ear, “If he’s cozying up with his childhood sweetheart, why can’t you have a confidant of your own?”

Meryl had been about to push Felix away, but when she caught sight of Rachel clutching Chandler’s arm, she froze.

Meryl had always been consumed by jealousy because of Chandler, and it felt unfair.

She wanted Chandler to taste the bitterness she was experiencing right now.

Outside the door, Chandler was completely unprepared for the sight of Meryl and Felix locked in an embrace.

At that moment, countless questions flooded his mind.

“When did Meryl and Felix meet? How long have they known each other? And why is Felix here in the first place?”

Behind him, Rachel was equally stunned. Her eyes widened in disbelief.

She thought, “What is going on? Why is Meryl hugging my fiancé, Felix? Is there something between them?”

Rachel, looking like she was discovering some shocking secret, exclaimed loudly, “So… You two are having a secret date here!”

Chandler noticed that Meryl was draped in Felix’s coat.
