The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1463

Felicity was utterly confused and quickly scrolled through the group chat to catch up—

Two hours ago, in this circle of friends, Aurora Lopez dropped a tongue-out emoji.

Aurora: [Lol! I've dragged my bro into this madness too!]

"..."

She had missed that message.

Perhaps tired of waiting for Felicity to reply, Miles just went ahead and sent a voice call invitation!

She nearly jumped out of her skin, almost dropping her phone in the process.

Returning to the States sure was rough on her phone, dropping it every now and then.

Swallowing hard, Felicity finally answered, "Hey, Langston, you're still up?"

"Which bar?"

No small talk from his end, straight to the point.

Felicity rolled her eyes and chuckled, "I managed to borrow some cash, no need for you to hustle over here in the middle of the night!"

"Who'd you borrow from?"

Just as he asked, that darn Calvin texted her, urging her to get home from the club and not to stay out too late. So, Felicity blurted out,

"Calvin!"

"Your boyfriend?"

"…Ah, right, my boyfriend."

If he hadn’t mentioned it, she’d almost forgotten herself.

"Can he drop you home after you settle the bill?"

"I’ll just grab a cab!"

"Felicity, send me the name of the bar."

His tone was commanding now.

She sighed, pausing for a few seconds before speaking softly, "Langston, you have a girlfriend. It wouldn’t look right, you coming out to meet me this late."

As a woman, Felicity felt empathy. If her boyfriend was going out to meet another girl late at night, especially one he had...other connections with, she’d feel a bit upset too.

Therefore, she had been trying her best to keep her distance from Miles.

"Of course, I do. But how will you pay me back?"

The corner of Felicity’s mouth twitched in annoyance, "I’ll return one thousand one hundred, okay? The hundred is interest!"

Calvin wasn’t interested in the interest, "Forget the one thousand one hundred, just do me a favor."

"What favor?"

"I’ll tell you when I get back to the States."

With the server waiting patiently, Felicity grew impatient, "Fine, fine, just transfer it!"

"Done!"

After paying the bill, she stepped out of the bar into the chilly night air, goosebumps forming on her arms.

Suddenly, her phone chimed with a WhatsApp notification.

Felicity looked down to see a message from sister Aurora.

Aurora: [WhatsApp transfer: $1000]

Aurora: [My brother practically put me in a headlock in the dead of night to make sure I transferred it to you!]
