He took a sip of wine and said, “Yes.”
Then they asked, “Is she here?”
He looked up at me and said, “Yes.”
I suddenly had a bad feeling, which reached its peak when someone asked: “Do you dare to kiss her?”
I watched in disbelief as he walked towards me and kissed me before I could react.
Immediately after, there was a chorus of curses. I saw Mason jump up, grab Felix, and throw a punch.
Felix didn’t hold back either, and soon they were brawling.
In the end, it was me who stood in front of Mason, causing Felix to stop.
He stared at me with wide, frightened eyes, like a child who had made a mistake. He called out softly: “Claire.”
I ignored him and helped Mason walk out. As we passed Felix, he grabbed my hand: “Claire…”
I closed my eyes tiredly, “Let’s end this here, Felix. Don’t make me hate you.”
I clearly felt Felix let go of my hand after I said this. I didn’t turn back to look at him, but I knew what expression was on his face.
Was I sad?
A little bit.
But this sadness was already insignificant.
I supported Mason as we slowly walked out. I could hear footsteps not too far behind us. I knew it was Felix.

Mason was injured and couldn’t go back to school, so I took him to the hospital. As we waited for a car by the roadside, Felix kept following us. He naturally knew this too.
After walking for who knows how long, Mason finally asked me: “Don’t you want to look back?”
I shook my head firmly: “No.”
Because I knew that the person I wanted was already by my side.
