She swallowed her bite of food and frowned at him, clearly unimpressed.
"How should I know if you can handle it? I'm not your girlfriend! Got a problem? Don't ask me, go see a doctor!"
"..."
"Of course, if you're too shy, I could tag along with you! I'll only charge you a hundred bucks for my company, same as last time."
Calvin's response got strangled in his throat before it could escape.
He just sat there, sighing heavily, letting the moment pass.
"Let's just leave it for now. The vibe's all wrong today."
Felicity didn't spare him another glance, diving into her meal with gusto, completely tossing aside any pretense of etiquette.
This place Abigail recommended? Absolutely amazing!
"Hey, did you book a hotel yet?" Felicity suddenly remembered to ask, in between mouthfuls.
"Not yet. I wasn't sure where you lived, and I thought I'd pick a place close to your house. That way, it'd be easier for you to show me around!"
"There's actually one pretty close to my place. It's co-owned by Mr. Lopez and my dad. Let me give the front desk a call, get you a room."
Calvin slapped his hand on the table, "That's perfect, thanks, Felicity! I'll just follow your lead while I'm here in town!"
"No biggie, just doing my part as a host." Felicity took another sip of her soda, then pulled out her phone to make a call. After a brief conversation, she said, "After we're done here, let's head over to the hotel so you can drop off your bags. No point in leaving them in the car."
"Sounds good."

Miles had planned to attend a software development conference today, but it got canceled last minute due to some unresolved technical problems. He figured there was no point in holding the meeting without a solution in sight.
However, with the cancellation, he had to make arrangements for those who had traveled from afar.
These were top-notch computer scientists and network engineers, not easy to come by. As a gesture of goodwill and to show face, Miles, the tech company founder, decided to personally handle their accommodations.
Several black business vehicles pulled up at the Trust-E Hotel, and the staff immediately went to assist them.

Sometimes Karen can be such a drama queen and immature....
For some reason I am now feeling suspicious about Kevin's new girlfriend....
I really hope this Perdita person is not a new villain....
I too echoed the sentiments of pppplllleeeaaaassssseeeeee bring this drama to an end. I beg of you!...
Really please finish this book and upload the full story so it can end. It's been drugout for so long!...
The intimate scenes in this story or uncomfortable to read. They either come off as being forced, painful, or simply not enjoyable....
Okay I left a long while ago and came back. Looks like it's been updated but still not done lol. I'll maybe wait 6 months before coming back and it'll probably still be going on. It's like a soap opera instead of a novel...
Kenneth is confirming something I've been thinking about him for several hundred chapters ago and that is he is a future murder suicide perpetrator. And after reading chapter 1275 yeah it's just brought the thought back....
How could Jeffrey throw the knife down at the scene of the crime with both their fingerprints on there?...
Again no update, so is this where it ends? Or post the whole book. Your dragging this out...
