You Hit My Heart by Kylie Stanford

He forcefully turned Vicki's sharp chin towards him, and his thin lips harshly met her cold ones. He angrily nibbled at the corner of

her lip.

"Do you consideryour man?" His discontented words burst out from his teeth.

"Could it be that you only seeas someone to fulfill your physical needs?" Flames ignited in his eyes. He had considered this

possibility more than once because she was so cold-blooded that he couldn't sense even a hint of love from her.

Vicki narrowed her eyes.

It was a childish question, and she couldn't be bothered to answer.

"Vicki, do you loveor not?" Felix questioned. He had asked her many times, but never received an answer.

Vicki stared back at him with her icy gaze, her expression showing impatience.

"Don't ask such childish questions. | won't answer."

Felix's chest heaved with anger. It was always the severy time.

The conversation took a turn, and he spoke coldly.

"Do you think | can't protect you?"

"Or do you think I'm incapable of giving you what you want?"

"Or do you think I'm indifferent and will drag you down? In your heart, am | such a useless person?"

Felix grew angrier as he spoke.

He wanted to squeeze her throat tightly and fiercely interrogate her.

"I don't think that way." Vicki's expression remained as cold as an eternal glacier, unmoving.

"Heh," Felix sneered, forcing her to look into his eyes. "If you don't think that way, then what do you mean? You don't tell me

anything, you do everything on your own. Have you ever asked me?"

"I can gather all the forces of the original factions for you. You should know that the Saunders family can reach anywhere in

Pascaylia. Trust me. If you encounter any difficulties, tell me. I'll help you."

He said it with utmost seriousness.

Vicki's dense eyelashes trembled slightly.

Then, her eyebrows furrowed. "Don't interfere. The Saunders family has been out of the picture for decades. Since we've been

cleansed, don't stain us again."

She held his wrist, which tightly gripped her chin, and slowly moved it away.

For the first time, she explained to him.

"lI have spersonal grudges with OGW. | don'twant to involve unrelated people."

Felix felt a slight tremor in his heart. She actually spoke up, finally explaining the reason, albeit vaguely. It was still a significant

step forward.

"It's okay, | don't mind getting involved."

His gaze turned sharp. "You should know Athena, right?"

Vicki raised her eyes. Why did he mention Athena? Yes, when she first arrived in DeNox four years ago, she did try to gather

information. The Ballard family, the Saunders family, and the Warner family were old acquaintances. Christian, Luther, and Felix

were also good friends.

What caused Christian to turn against them, becoming enemies? And what was the truth and evidence that Christian had always

wanted her to find?

In those four years, she hadn't found any clues.

It seemed that Felix had completely severed ties with Christian. She didn't know where to start.

Later, Christian gradually stopped being eager to investigate the past and had sinteractions with Joyce. Plus, Christian had

saved Joyce, so he didn't ask her to inquire about the past anymore. That's why she hadn't left DeNox and had stayed there all

along.

"Why would you mention her?" Vicki's eyes widened. "She's been dead for a long time."

A crooked smile formed on Felix's lips. "What if she's still alive? When she fell off the cliff back then, she didn't die. She only fell

into a coma. She was unconscious for nearly ten years and has now awakened."

Vicki's expression showed a hint of danger, but she remained silent.

"From your expression, you also know, right? You wanted to hide it just now?" Felix exposed her.

"So you know everything? OGW's appearance, Athena's awakening. Is there anything else | don't know?"

Vicki suddenly pushed Felix away with force.

In a cold voice, she said, "Stop asking. Don't get involved."

She adjusted her disheveled clothes and swiftly walked towards the door.

Felix suddenly stood up and faced her straight back. "It's too late. I'm already involved. Luther is also involved. Before coming here,

| went to Mr. Ball and made it clear. When it comes to OGW, the Saunders family will never stand idly by."

He walked up behind her.

With determined meaning, he solemnly promised, "No matter what your past is, no matter what difficulties you face now, this time,

| will protect you! | won't let you suffer any harm. Whatever you want, I'll give it to you."

From behind, he slipped a miniature GPS tracker into her palm.

"Letknow your whereabouts. Letprotect you. Vicki, | can't be without you. | love you."

Vicki's shoulders trembled fiercely.
