Chapter 240
Seeing that Shakira looked emotionless and silent, Felix thought she must dislike him so she did not want to glance at him. Felix stepped forward. He was brilliant and rich student so he was always admired by everyone else. Now he respectfully bowed before Shakira. He slightly clamped his lips together, sounding a little bit nervous. Felix said, "Dr. Lonely Bird, I want to work for you just because I want to learn from you. If you really think I'm annoying, I'll make sure you won't see my face very often."
His words sounded familiar, making Shakira want to laugh. She thought, 'I have to admit that Mitchell and Felix are alike. They knew she found them annoying yet insisted on staying around her.
Shakira gave a cold smile. "As far as I know, Dr. Nelson specializes in medical research, which isn't part of traditional medicine that I specialize in."
Felix quickly explained, "After returning to this country, I've shifted my focus to traditional medicine. I joined this show to learn more about traditional medicine."
"Really?" Shakira said meaningfully, "I thought he came here because Ms. Nelson invited you disappoint her."
and you couldn't bear to
Felix looked embarrassed. He couldn't retort Shakira's words. Because it was true. Initially, he didn't know Shakira would join the show too. If Yvette hadn't pestered him about it, he wouldn't have been interested in it. But now, he had made up his mind.
Before Felix could say anything more, Shakira said coldly, "So, you joined the show because of Ms. Nelson. Please leave now I don't want Ms. Nelson to hold a grudge against me."
Felix's heart sank and immediately blurted out, "It won't happen!"
"I'll explain everything to Yvette. There's a reason for this. She'll understand me!" Felix said, "Dr. Lonely Bird if you're only worrying about this, you can rest assured."
Shakira said, "I don't care. Do what
you want."
Felix was too persistent. Shakira was starting to get a bit
1.impatient. She frowned a little.
Kevin said, "That's decided then. From now on, Dr. Neleon will be your assistant. Dr. Nelson, please make sure to hand over
your previous work."
Felix said with undisguised excitement, "I'll get right
Yvette asked, "What? Felix is leaving?"
n it!"
Yvette was shocked when she heard from other guests that Felix would be working with Lonely Bird. She stood motionless for a long time, unable to process the shocking news.
The other guests didn't expect Yvette to react like this so they asked, "What? You didn't know it? Mr. Jones already sent a message about it. We thought Mr. Nelson had already told you.' Yvette was flustered but she forced a smile and said calmly, "Felix mentioned it to me a while ago. I just didn't expect it to happen so suddenly."
Then she saw Felix walking downstairs carrying his personal belongings.
Yvette quickly said, "Excuse me. I'll go help Felix out!"
Sun, Nov
She quickly caught up with Felix and followed him to the emergency stairs.
Yvette, out of breath, couldn't hold back her anger. "Felix!"
She rushed to Felix. "Are you going to leave me alone here? Why? You promised me you'd help me on the show..."
Felix interrupted her. "I did promise you but now I have things that I want to do for myself.
Yvette thought, Things you want to do?'
Yvette was incredulous. "So you decided to work as an assistant for Lonely Bird? Felix, are you joking?"
Felix said coldly, "I'm serious. I'm really sorry that I failed to keep my promise. Tell me whatever you want as compensation. I'll try my best."
Then he walked past her and left.
Yvette stood motionless in shock as disbelief and anger overwhelmed her.
Yvette thought, 'Whatever I want?
'How could this really compare to me winning over the audience in my variety show debut and becoming famous overnight?'
Rebecca made some marketing strategies especially for them using Felix's impressive achievements in medicine. She was sure they would definitely be the most interesting and talked-about duo.
Now with no more obstacles, everything seemed to be going perfectly according to their plan. But Felix suddenly decided to quit.
Yvette thought, "These selfish and hateful people! They always say they care about me but when I needed them most, they betrayed me and left me!.
'I was stupid when I helped him play up to Lonely Bird. Felix, you ungrateful and heartless jerk!'
Yvette was about to explode with anger and her eyes quickly turned red.
She asked her assistant to ask for a day off from Kevin. Then she drove straight back to the Nelson residence.
With the New Year approaching, Rebecca, the leader of the Nelson family, was preparing decorations for it with a group of women, praying for a happy and prosperous year ahead.
The courtyard was lively. Suddenly, rapid footsteps interrupted their conversation.
Rebecca turned around and was slightly surprised. "Yvette? You're back home so early! Aren't you supposed to be filming until very late?"
Yvette's grand-aunt, who seldom visited them, squinted and chuckled, "Is she our little princess? It's only been three years and you've become so beautiful!"
Some of Yvette's other grand-aunts said, "Yvette is the most brilliant young lady in the family. She's pretty and does great in school."
"I heard that after the New Year, Yvette is going to intern at the Lopez Group. Not everyone can have this kind of chance." "That's not the most impressive thing. My son, who's been working in the entertainment industry for years, said that Yvette was currently doing a popular reality show with Felix. It's a special assignment from Haruca. It is a joint effort of Haruca and Crescentville. No one else in Crescentville can do it!"

Hearing their flattering words, Yvette became sad. Her eyes became even redder. But she gently greeted the elders and said, "I'm not feeling well. Excuse me, I'm going back to my bedroom After that, she quickly lowered her head and hurried up the stairs.
Rebecca realized immediately that something bad had happened. She put down what she was holding and followed behind
Yvette.
After Rebecca and Yvette left one after the other, everyone else looked at each other in confusion.
Although their family wasn't as wealthy as the Nelson family, they were accustomed to those common tricks. Everyone realized what was going on right away.
The woman in a green dress suddenly lowered her voice. "Who would have thought that Mrs. Nelson cares so much about her daughter? She can't stay calm so quickly?"© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
"I think Yvette is just pretending to be sad. Mrs. Nelson is shrewd. I can't believe she didn't notice that."
"You don't get it. It's easy to lose perspective when you're involved. If Mrs. Nelson could have seen through her, she wouldn't have cared so much about her ado
