He Wasn’t That Unconscious Chapter 01

I thought Sienna would try to stop me.

Ever since we were kids, her favorite thing had been making my life miserable.

But this time—

She burst out laughing and shoved me forward.

“Honestly, all you do is annoy everyone anyway. Go wipe his butt and change his sheets. Look at you. So desperate you’d throw yourself at a guy in a coma. That’s just sad.”

I lowered my head and said nothing.

If this got me out of this house and earned me twenty million dollars, I was all in.

I couldn’t wait to lock it down.

Meanwhile, Felix’s spirit was losing it.

He floated behind Sienna, throwing punch after punch through her.

“Sienna Reidy! You always told me Ruth bullied you. So that was all bullshit. You’re the one who’s been bullying her this whole time. I can’t believe I fell for your act.”

The resentment rolling off him made the room feel colder.

I instinctively hunched my shoulders and walked over to Felix’s mother, Penelope.

“I’m the Reidys’ biological daughter. If you don’t mind, I’m willing to marry Felix instead.”

Penelope looked exhausted.

After Felix’s accident, the Floyd family had publicly insisted he’d recover soon. If his fiancée dumped him now, the family would become a joke. People would lose confidence in the Floyds, and Floyd Corp.’s stock could take a hit.

And somehow, I’d become their way out.

Penelope grabbed my hands, eyes lighting up. “You’re really willing to do this? Felix is unconscious, so he can’t legally marry you right now or have a wedding. But if you take care of him and stand by him, then when he wakes up, you’ll be his wife.”

I nodded. “I’m good at taking care of people. I’ve looked after my paralyzed grandparents since I was little.”

Felix’s spirit drifted over and frowned. He looked me over from head to toe.

A chill ran down my spine.

I pretended not to notice him. “I can cook. I can help him move around and keep him clean. I’m patient…”

My parents immediately jumped in.

“That’s right. Ruth was born to serve.”

“She’s perfect for this. As her parents, we fully support the marriage. You should take her with you today.”

They practically pushed me out the door like they were throwing out garbage.

Behind me, Sienna’s sharp laughter rang out. “One creepy girl and one guy in a coma. Talk about a perfect match.”

Felix shook his head. “Sienna is unbelievable… So all that sweet, innocent stuff was fake. I must’ve been blind. When I wake up, I’m giving Ruth twenty million dollars immediately. If nothing else, it’ll piss Sienna off.”

As his spirit drifted through the wall, I silently prayed.

‘You promised me twenty million. Don’t you dare forget.’
