"Why? Just why?"
She hadn't quite worked out the reason herself yet.
"Because, I just can't tell you!" Felicity averted her gaze, her ankle twisted and running was out of the question. Not that she could outrun him anyway.
"What was last night all about then?" Miles grabbed her wrist, his demeanor almost pleading, like a husband seeking an explanation.
"Hey, what's the rush? Can't you wait for me to come up with a... umm, I mean, explain?"
"Fine, start explaining."
He was curious to see what kind of excuse Felicity could possibly invent!
They stood in the foyer, facing off as if a brawl was about to break out.
Knowing she was at a disadvantage, Felicity played the sympathy card, planning her escape for a later time.
"Ouch... my foot suddenly hurts so much! I might actually need to see a doctor!"
Miles raised an eyebrow, then unexpectedly scooped her up in a bridal carry.
The sudden lift off the ground startled her, and she instinctively clung to his neck.
"What are you doing?"
"Didn't you say your foot hurts? I'll carry you to your room and wait for the family doctor."
"Wait, no, I—" This wasn't how the script was supposed to go!
Miles carried her straight to his master bedroom and placed her on the large bed.
As she rolled to the side, she protested, "You don't need to trouble your family doctor. I'll just have my mom take me to the hospital when I get home!"
"The injury happened here, it's only right I take care of it before sending you back to Aunt Karen."
"..."
Miles stood by the bed, texting the family doctor and even had his secretary send over some food.

Can you please convey this to the person who owns this website? Update “find me in your labyrinth” novel please...author is MIA since 12/4......
I don't agree with not letting him in. That just seems cruel and besides wasn't the whole point of getting pregnant again was for him to experience and travel the journey of pregnancy with her?...
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....
