The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1492

"Sorry, I just..."

Miles hadn't expected to walk into such a scene. He froze for a moment before quickly turning around, "Put some clothes on, and I'll come back in!"

As he was about to leave the guest room, Felicity, clutching the only towel around her, couldn't help but laugh and call out, "Langston, wait a sec!"

He stopped in his tracks, not daring to turn around, and stayed put.

"What's up?"

"I tripped over your sneakers and twisted my ankle. I... I can't stand up on my own."

She had tried to get up, but the pain was unbearable!

Miles frowned, "But you... you're not dressed."

"Can't you just close your eyes?"

"..."

He finally turned around, obediently closing his eyes, and began to walk towards her with his hands stretched out.

Felicity was almost amused by his antics.

"How are you going to carry me like that?"

"Should I call someone else then?"

"Who would you call?" she glanced at Miles who still had his eyes shut tight and said bluntly, "Just hand me my phone, I'll call Calvin to come and carry me out!"

Sure enough, at the mention of Calvin's name, Miles's frown deepened.

"You're undressed, and I have to close my eyes, but you want Calvin to come over and see?!"

"What else do you suggest? It's the middle of the night. Are you planning to let me sit here all night?"

"..."

With no other choice, Miles opened his eyes, grabbed a throw blanket from the bed to cover her, then carefully picked her up.

"Ouch."

Felicity tried to move her foot, wincing from the sharp pain.

"It hurts that bad, I'll call our family doctor."

"No need."

Seeing Felicity's cheeks flush a ripe red, Miles bit his lip, holding onto his last shred of sanity to ask, "Are you sure?"

"Can you not ask me that right now?"

It was a spur-of-the-moment action! Any more questions, and she might actually regret it.

Miles finally learned to follow her lead, leaning in to claim her lips, her breath.

"Mmm...Langston...wait!"

"Hmm?"

"I'm scared it'll hurt..."

"I'll try not to touch your ankle."

Felicity wrapped her arms around his neck, shaking her head, "I'm not talking about my ankle!"

"..."

"You can go ahead, but not all the way... it's too painful, I can't handle it!"
