Chapter 105

After learning that her biological daughter had been swapped at birth, Myra had been in a constant state of

worry, losing sleep over the search for Felicia. She had mobilized countless people and spent significant

resources just to track her down! But once she finally found Felicia, the intense concern gradually faded,

replaced by various feelings of dissatisfaction and annoyance.

"Do you know why that is, Sebastian?"

Felicia blinked slowly, a hint of amusement in her voice. "Because people always dwell on what they can't have.

"At first, the worry is just a lingering sense of injustice. But when things are resolved, it doesn't feel as

significant.

"And then when it's lost again, regret hits hard."

Sebastian shook his head in disagreement. "Don't undervalue yourself. You're just as important in Mom and

Dad's eyes. You can't dismiss their love for you just because they've neglected you a couple of times."

"Is that so?" She responded with a simple smile, thinking of the idiom. "Even a little can be in enough in a world

full of plenty.

"The bird in the tree only occupies a single branch. The mouse drinking from the river needs only a few

mouthfuls to fill its belly."

In the eyes of Myra and Dexter, Felicia was nothing more than someone who could be dismissed with a bit of

attention and money. There was no familial love to even begin with.

Felicia was fully aware. It wasn't herself she looked down on, but the Fuller family.

Before Sebastian could respond, Felicia interrupted, "Alright, Sebastian, | have to return these books to the

library. See you later."

With that, she clutched her two books and walked away.

Sebastian rubbed his temples, feeling somewhat helpless. Just as he was about to chase after her, his phone

buzzed-it was Myra calling.

"Mom, what's up?"

"Sebastian, are you at your sister's school? Make sure to tell her that tomorrow is the engagement banquet! She

must be there and absolutely can't be late!"

Sebastian was at a loss for words.

The issues surrounding the bridge had been resolved. The Fuller family had seized the opportunity to push

through the construction of a new bridge and donated a billion dollars as the construction fund. With this

strategic move, they gained a significant advantage in public opinion, and Fullers' well-funded PR team swiftly

managed any subsequent engineering issues.

Moreover, Dexter also caught and dealt with the individual behind the sabotage.

This crisis was perfectly handled, but the marriage contract with the Lawson family was still intact.

Matthew was proving to be more troublesthan Sebastian had anticipated.

Every the attempted to negotiate, he was turned away. Even when he managed to meet Matthew, any

requests to break off the engagement were met with various excuses to keep the marriage intact. In short,

Matthew made it clear that the engagement must happen, or he would force Felicia into the marriage, whether

she liked it or not.

With the engagement banquet looming, Sebastian rubbed his temples in frustration. "Got it, Mom."

After hanging up, he found Felicia in the library and immediately said, "I've arranged for a car to take you out of

Khogend. You can cback later when things cool down. How does that sound?" This was his desperate

attempt as a brother to help his sister escape the impending marriage.

Felicia laughed, "Thanks for your concern, Sebastian, but this engagement isn't going to happen. In addition, |

have a patient to see tomorrow, so | can't leave."

Sebastian playfully tapped her on the head. "If you don't listen to me, what will you do if someone actually

carries you off to the wedding?"

"| can predict that Mr. Lawson Senior's plans will fail. Just trust me!" Felicia winked.

Sebastian sighed in exasperation but ultimately decided to respect Felicia's wishes.

Before leaving, he couldn't help but ask, "Silly, the engagement banquet is tomorrow. Aren't you worried at all?"
