RedNovelChapter 125
I tried to turn Mom down, but she wouldn't allow it.
After negotiating with her for ages, she finally relented and said, "Fine. | won't send you a personal bodyguard.
However, you've got to meet Mason Connaught of Quantum Springs. He's one of our allies. If anything happens,
you can ask for his assistance. He'll also protect you discretely."
"Got it."
Since it was the weekend, Felicia and | took a break at Imperia Manor.
| even brought her to meet Jane at the hospital. She was strong and was recovering nicely. The doctor said she
would have a clean bill of health in a month.
However, she had to remain in the ICU for now and was not accepting any visitors. Even when Felicia and | went
to visit her, we could only signal at her through the glass windows.

However, Jane was still overjoyed.
On Sunday, | told Felicia, "We'll have lunch with a few men from Quantum Springs. Then, we'll go back to school
in the afternoon.
She nodded and agreed, "Alright."
| looked at her swollen cheeks and asked worriedly, "Are you feeling unwell? If you are, you've got to tell me.
Don't keep it to yourself."
"No. I'm perfectly fine."
Felicia grinned atand even poked her cheek to relieve my concern.
"William, what are you going to do when we return to school? Are you going to offer the faculty an explanation?
Rumors about you are spreading like wildfire..."
"Why would | do that? They don't deserve it."
When | said so, Felicia seemed crestfallen. "They don't deserve it, but neither am
| deserving. William, I hadn't thought that you would be so rich and amazing. | don't deserve you."
"What are you going on about?"
| smiled resignedly and took a seat beside her, running my fingers through her hair.
"I said that they didn't deserve an explanation, but it wasn't because they were of
a lower social standing. Rather, those faculty members are unprincipled. | shouldn't have to pay them such
respect. They accusedwithout checking their sources and robbedof a chance to explain. | look down on
their morals, not their status."
If | were such a selfish person, | wouldn't have gotten with Felicia in the first place, nor would | have befriended
Benjamin.

| thought that Felicia was very naive. However, it seemed like my consolation hadn't done anything. She still
seemed preoccupied. | couldn't help it.
The differences in our social standings were too wide. However, she had to find a way to overcit.
We were only dating in school. She wouldn't feel much about our difference in privilege. If we did consider
marriage in the future, it would only be worse.
If Felicia did not overcit, she would feel even worse and even more terrified when attending events with me.
Our relationship would suffer as a result. | couldn't help her.
"Sophia, give Felicia a makeover. We'll be eating with the people from Quantum Springs in the afternoon."
"Alright, sir."
Sophia knew what | intended. She quickly brought over a formal dress and jewelry. Then, Sophia got Felicia ready
and drove Mom's V8 Koenigsegg to Quantum Springs.
When Felicia and | reached the restaurant, we realized that many people had arrived. | immediately identified
Mason from the crowd.
