The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1497

"Pff—cough, cough, cough!"

That one spit nearly choked Felicity to death!

She was coughing so hard she couldn't catch her breath, and in the end, Miles had to come over and pat her back.

"What did you just say?"

"Grab our birth certificates, head to the city hall, and get married."

Miles's reply was short and to the point.

"Langston, are you out of your mind? Talking nonsense here? How on earth could I possibly go to city hall with you and get married?"

"Why not?"

"Because you're my brother!" Their relationship, it was like siblings!

Miles was momentarily at a loss for words, "We're not blood-related."

"But in my heart, I've always treated you as my real brother! Really." After saying this, she even lifted her eyes, trying to show her most sincere gaze.

But the next second, it all fell apart.

"You can sleep with your real brother?"

"Felicity, why don't you want to marry me?"

Even if Miles was slow on picking up cues in matters of the heart, he realized the core issue—

That was, she never wanted a future with him.

It wasn't about whether he thought it through or not, it was her, she didn't want to marry.

"No reason."

"Felicity!"

She turned around, her back facing him, "Stop yelling my name, I'm not deaf, I know you're talking to me."

"Can't you just not ask for a reason? I don't want to marry, I don't want to marry you, must there be a reason?"

What kind of times are these? Just because we slept together twice, we have to get married?

"I need a reason."

He had to know where he went wrong, what was lacking!

Seeing Felicity not talking again, he could only ponder for himself, "Because of Esther? I can assure you, that night five years ago, I definitely did not scream her name! I did agree to date her, but we've broken up now, you don't believe me, I can prove it."

"I don't disbelieve you."

Felicity really tried to hold back her laughter, given the seriousness of the moment.

But she couldn't help it!

"Pfft...Hahaha...you, you're serious! Hahaha...uh."

Seeing Miles's darkened handsome face, she quickly retracted her laughter in a second, "Sorry."

"Give me a real reason, why am I not good enough?"

Now, he was not in the mood for jokes.

Felicity coughed lightly, her tone becoming serious, "Can you let me go first?"

"No."

"..."

"Tell me, why don't you want to marry me?"

Looking into his deep, pool-like eyes, Felicity finally caved, her eyelashes fluttering down.

"Langston, I want to marry for love, I don't want to settle."
