NovelEnglishNathan hastily tugged at Listina's hand as soon as the words left her mouth.
"Listina, Felix is with Carol only because of you. Remember that jeweler who bought out your family's business? That's Carol's dad.
The surgeons for your operation were all brought in by the Miller family's influence. Felix is just playing with her to save you. He
loves you, and the over 100 thousand dollars for your surgery? That was Carol's money. She has no idea; Felix has been deceiving
her all along. You're the one who truly matters to him. Now that your surgery's a success, he's bound to break up with Carol."
Tears had already been streaming down Listina's cheeks, but at these words, hope shone in her eyes as she gazed at Felix.
"Is it true? Felix, you're with her just to gettreatment?"
Before Felix could respond, Nathan interjected eagerly.
"Carol's been nothing but a pathetic pawn from the start. Her father was behind that accident years ago, and he took over your
company. Felix isn't foolish enough to overlook that. Just the other week, he was tellingabout his plan to swindle a share of the
Miller family's stock, all to ensure a comfortable life for the two of you. What the Millers owe you, they can never repay."
Quickly wiping away her tears, Listina grabbed Felix's hand.
"Felix, | need to hear it from you. You and Carol, it's just a fling, right?"

Joy exploded in Listina's eyes, and a triumphant smile curled her lips. That tramp was just a tool, a pawn being played! The thought
was exhilarating.
She kissed Felix's hand apologetically.
"Sorry for lashing out earlier. Did you get hurt? | was just so angry; I'm sorry."
"It's okay."
Thinking of Ms. Miller as nothing but a pawn played deliberately by Felix in order to cure her disease made her giddy with
happiness.
No wonder she'd taken an instant dislike to Carol upon first meeting her; she was Abner's daughter, after all.
"Felix, when are you going to break up with her? My surgery is done, and in two months, I'll be fully recovered. | can't stand the
thought of her near you."
"I'll visit the Miller Group. | want their shares."
Nathan, overhearing this, couldn't contain his excitement and jumped up.
"If anyone can do it, it's you. Just give Carol the cold shoulder for a while; then sweet-talk her into signing. She's so love-struck by
you right now; she's putty in your hands."
Listina felt a twinge of unhappiness at the thought of Felix continuing to interact with Carol. She loathed the sight of her - so
pretentious and utterly repulsive.
She looked at Felix, unable to voice any objection, knowing all he had done was for her. If they could secure the Miller family's
shares, they wouldn't have to work another day in their lives.
After a minute of hesitation, she clenched her fist, "Felix, | support you. Whatever you do, I'm behind you. But you have to promise
me, the moment you get those shares, you'll break up with Carol. And | don't just mean break up; | want you to crush her, let her
know she's been your plaything all this time, make her lose face so badly she'll never be able to hold her head up again!"
"Okay."
His answer was all Listina needed to breathe a sigh of relief, and the corners of her mouth turned up as she toyed with her bottle of
perfume.
"So, the skincare products you gave her, they were just to keep her off the scent, right?"
"Yeah."
