Chapter 1105
Jennifer bit her lips and looked at Felix with tear-filled eyes. “Felix… you… Are you going back with us?” Even she had no confidence in her own question. He lived well there and was taken care of by many people, including his grandparents and father. Living with her was a completely different story.
She thought to herself, “He must like this place better. He wouldn’t want to go back with me.”
“Go back? Where are you going? This is Felix’s home!” His grandmother, Marilyn, immediately protested, afraid that Jennifer would really take away her precious grandson.
Victor also added, “Well, you’re Jen, right? Felix once lived in your house for a while. But now, he has returned to his own home. Of course, it is impossible for him to return to Strico with you.”
But Jennifer didn’t seem to hear their words at all. She just looked straight at Felix until she heard him say, “Sorry, I… I won’t go back with you.”
Her eyes suddenly turned red, and her little head drooped.
She thought, “I knew it. He doesn’t want to come back with me.”
Jennifer stammered, “I… I know you have grandparents and your daddy You… wouldn’t want to go back with me. I know that… but I’m still sad. I want to sleep with you, play the piano with you, and tell you many stories, Felix.”
After some thought, she realized she would be equally unwilling to leave her parents and brother behind.
So now she understood his decision, but it didn’t stop her from feeling upset.
“Don’t cry. You should be happy for Felix because he has found his own home.” Rosalie held her daughter in her arms and wiped her tears.
Jennifer pouted, but she could not bring herself to be happy. As long as she thought of not seeing Felix every day in the future, it would make her sad.
Rosalie turned around and looked at Felix again. “Felix, I’m sorry that

you suffered at the Youngblood residence. I’m really sorry.”
Felix shook his head and replied, “Ms. Leighton, you don’t have to apologize.” He knew that Rosalie had always been helping him find evidence, and though many people believed he was a bad child, she was willing to ask him what happened instead of directly assuming that he caused trouble.
“Well, it’s late today. Let’s go back first. With that, Rosalie took her daughter’s hand, while Jonathan held their son, Guillermo’s hand. The four of them left the hall of the Serton residence.
But before leaving, Jennifer shot Felix a reluctant glance.
Felix stared blankly after Jennifer’s departing figure. Then, he looked down at the chocolates and apology card in his hand, as well as the doll he had found in the utility room.
“I told you. How could our grandson push someone downstairs? Fortunately, the truth has come out now. But it took them a whole night to apologize! I don’t know what the Youngblood family is teaching their children!” Marilyn grumbled. She was about to hug her Felix when her precious grandson suddenly ran outside.
“Where are you going, Felix?” Marilyn hurriedly called out and chased after him. Seeing this, Victor also followed them, and some of the help ran out together.
Wyatt stood there, his lips curved in a small smile. At that moment, he was not the tiniest bit worried that his son would want to return to the Youngblood residence.
After all, Felix was carrying the blood of the Serton family. The boy would understand that there was a price to pay for the things he desired.
Felix ran until he caught up with four people from the Youngblood family at the gate of the Serton residence.
“Jen, I… I don’t blame you!” Felix said loudly, “I want to be best friends with you, better than anyone else. It’s just… I-I can’t leave my home now.”
Because only by staying there could he stand beside her with his head held high and not be compared by anyone in the future.
He didn’t want to be looked down upon anymore, and he didn’t want to hear people gossiping behind his back about how he didn’t deserve to be Ms. Youngblood’s friend.

Jennifer stared at Felix in a daze. When she heard that the other party wanted to be best friends with her, the dispirited frown on her face finally turned into a smile.
She ran to him quickly and declared, “Then, let’s be best friends forever. You must visit me often in the future; I will also come to see you
frequently!”
“Okay!” he answered.
“This doll…” Jennifer’s gaze fell on the doll he held in his right hand. At that moment, she had already recognized that it was her gift to him. “You have to pretend this doll is me and let her sleep with you every day.”
“Okay,” he answered again.
“Also, eat all the chocolates I gave you today. They’re delicious!” she added. At the same time, she lamented inwardly, “Sadly, I can’t eat those chocolates with him.”
“Okay.”
After his three promises, she was finally satisfied, and her expression was no longer as sad as before.
Jennifer suddenly hugged Felix and planted a sloppy kiss on his cheek. “I will miss you every day after I go back. You should also miss me every day! We will always be best friends.”
The four members of the Youngblood family left. Felix remained frozen to the spot in a trance, his cheek burning hot from Jennifer’s kiss.
He thought, “I have been missing her every day. I miss her so much!”
“Okay, let’s go back in. It’s already late. You should have gone to bed long ago,” Marilyn coaxed while holding her grandson’s hand.
Felix lowered his gaze and looked at the doll in his hand. Then, he solemnly said to Marilyn, “Grandma, don’t throw this doll away anymore. I don’t want anyone else to touch it.”
He spoke as if the doll was an invaluable treasure to him that no one could take away.
After being taken back to the hotel by Jonathan and Rosalie, Guillermo and Jennifer were naturally told off.
After all, the two children had almost caused a massive incident. If Wyatt

had called any later, Jonathan might have already brought his case to the leader of the police station in Lommore.
“Why did you run out to find Felix? If you really want to see him, tell Daddy or me!” Rosalie chided.
“Because I’m afraid that Felix won’t want to see all of us. In that case, we won’t be able to meet each other, but if we sneak into the Serton residence, then we can see him,” Jennifer insisted firmly.
Rosalie rubbed her temples. Her daughter’s logic was so unreasonable that she failed to immediately come up with a retort.
“Anyway, you can’t do this in the future. You are still children now. What if you run into bad people on the way?” Rosalie began to lecture the two kids on the dangers that could potentially befall them.
