Chapter 374 Day And Night

Nancy and Doris spent the entire day strolling in the city. They window-shopped, sat and chilled in a coffee shop, and basically just caught up as if after a long time of not seeing each other.

Just as the two of them were about to get in the car and go home, someone suddenly shouted, "Doris!"

Immediately, they turned around and saw a man running towards them.

"Felix Mu..." Doris uttered while her face turned pale as a paper.

And upon hearing the name that escaped her friend’s lips, Nancy was frozen to her feet.

‘Is this man her childhood sweetheart that Doris often mentioned?’ she thought, stealing a glance at her friend, who looked as if she pissed in her pants.

"How about I go first, Doris?" she teased and prepared to step inside the car.

However, before she could even lift her foot, Doris tightly grabbed her hand and uttered, "No! Stay here."

Her relationship with Felix Mu had become a thing of the past, and yet, a pang of pain would still prick her heart every time those memories crossed her mind.

But now, she was glad that it was finally over. Perhaps, ending their relationship was really a blessing in disguise.

"My mother wants to see you, Doris!" Felix Mu soon reached them, panting to catch his breath. And with a pair of melancholic eyes, he stared at his former childhood friend.

"Why does she want to see me? Are you scheming against me again?" A hint of despair coated Doris’ voice. Although it had been a long time, she could still clearly remember the tragedy that befell on her.

"No! Of course not! I know we were wrong, and my mother wants to apologize for

The following day, Doris was taken away by the authorities. And just the like the day before, she could do nothing but helplessly let herself be dragged.

After an hour, she was taken to the court where she argued her case, still hoping that justice would prevail. "Samuel Liang was the one bullying Felix! I was just protecting my friend! Please believe me!" she begged the judge, while everyone in the room eyed her with so much disdain.

And while Doris tried to save herself, she didn’t expect to see the last person she thought of sitting as a witness. Felix Mu, who bore his ghastly and expressionless eyes, glanced at her and uttered, "I saw it with my own eyes. It was Doris who beat Samuel Liang.

Because of this statement, Doris was locked up in jail, where she spent an entire year blankly staring at her cell’s wall and wishing that her life would end.

Even on the day she was released, no trace of bliss could be found on her face; instead, it was painted with dread. She wandered the streets in a daze, thinking of how she could probably start her life again. After all that had happened, she could never go back to their home and village anymore. There was no place for her to go!

To make things worse, it suddenly started raining. And as the raindrops fell on her face, an eerie cold slowly wrapped herself.

Doris tightened her messy clothes, and the chill still penetrated her body from outside.
