Of all the things Victor expected from his icy, quiet, poker–faced friend Felix, he never imagined that the guy would try to steal away his adorable little sister after just one meeting.
No way he was letting this happen!
“My sister doesn’t need your stuff. Lauren, give it back. If you like it, I’ll buy you-
Before he could finish, Lauren cut him off.
She blinked her big eyes. “Victor, I like it.”
Victor’s heart shattered all over again.
Lauren, I’m your big brother. Your favorite. Are you really gonna ditch me for this cold Felix?
Felix didn’t even acknowledge Victor’s jealous glare. He took Lauren’s hand and said, “Come to my place.”
Lauren’s eyes lit up instantly.
She’d always been curious about Felix’s house. She never got the chance to see it in her last life, so now that she finally had the opportunity, there was no way she was passing it up.
Maybe she’d even get to see Grandma and Anna again. She missed them so much.
“Yes! Let’s go right now!” she said eagerly.
Flynn muttered, “That’s wild. A girl actually likes Felix?
Jim shrugged. “What’s so weird about that? That Zhou girl likes him too.”
“You mean Corinth?” Flynn scoffed. “Felix can’t stand her. She’s nowhere near as cute as Lauren.”
“If Corinth saw Felix being this sweet to Lauren,” Jim said, “she’d lose her mind.”
Victor growled, “If she lays a hand on my sister, I’ll cut it off.”
At the Brooker Estate
Felix brought Lauren to the Brooker estate.
The mansion looked like a palace, sitting proudly behind a sweeping lawn.
The building was distinctly Western in style, with cream–colored marble walls that shimmered under the sunlight. Elegant carvings adorned the façade, giving ith soft and regal air.
Lauren looked around in awe, eyes wide with wonder. The Brooker family’s just as rich as the Mavis family.
Trying to contain her excitement, she followed Felix inside.
The moment she stepped into the house, she glanced around eagerly, hoping to see Grandma and Anna.
But they weren’t there.

The spacious mansion was quiet except for a few neatly uniformed housekeepers who moved about calmly and efficiently.
Lauren tilted her head, puzzled. “Felix, where’s your family?”
Felix’s voice was cool and even. “Grandma’s at the old house. My dad’s at work.”
A small pang of disappointment rose in Lauren’s chest So Grandma doesn’t live here… I guess I won’t see her today after all.
Felix noticed the shift in her expression and gently held her hand. “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.” Lauren said quickly with a smile, brushing the feeling aside.
“I’ll take you to my room,” Felix said as he led her upstairs.
He opened the door, and Lauren’s eyes lit up..
The room was spotless, not a single thing out of place.
Its layout was sleek and minimal, more like a grown man’s space than a kid’s. Which, honestly, suited Felix perfectly.
Felix sat down on the bed and motioned for Lauren to join him. Then he just… stared at her.
Lauren tilted her head and stared right back, never getting tired of looking at him.
Bit by bit, she inched closer, her eyes sparkling.

Felix froze as her face got nearer, a statue. His voice stammered. “W–What are you doing?”
A second later, Lauren leaned in and gave his cheek a soft kiss. “I like you,” she said sweetly.
Boom.
Felix’s brain short–circuited. Her soft little voice saying I like you” echoed on repeat in his head. saying “I like you” echoed on repeat in his head.
His face turned bright red, the blush spreading all the way to his ears. He looked around wildly, not sure where to focus.
His fingers twisted in the bed sheets as his heart started thumping out of control.
Lauren likes me? At first sight?
She must. She even proposed to me, didn’t she?
Watching Felix squirm and blush, Lauren burst out laughing.
She thought he looked absolutely adorable–so different from the calm and collected man he’d been in her past life. This version of Felix had a totally different charm.
Sull giggling, she reached out and gently poked his check.
Felix just about melted from embarrassment.

Suddenly, he jumped up off the bed, startling Lauren.
She blinked in confusion. “What’s wrong?”
