The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1575

It wasn't that Felicity was stingy, it was just that Miles's excuses were unbelievably lame!

Here was a scion of the prestigious Lopez Corporation, showing up in Anglonia with tales of having no place to stay and being starving. Seriously, who would buy that?

“What, did you come here without any cash? Or are you just terrible at communicating?”

“…”

“We broke up, remember? Letting you crash at my place last night was already more than generous. Do you really expect me to feed and house you too?”

Miles shook his head, “No, I'll take you out for dinner.”

“That’s not necessary, I can pay for myself.”

“So, you’re inviting me?”

“…”

Felicity was at her wit's end.

She couldn’t believe her words were twisted into— not being shameless enough!

And now, he was shamelessly clinging to her.

“Felicity, let’s sit down, have a meal, and talk. I’m genuinely hungry.”

“Then go eat!”

“If you're not coming, then I guess I'll just starve.”

After saying that, Miles added, “If I did something wrong, starving to death would only be what I deserve, I know.”

“You!”

“I’ll help you pack your bags. I saw your suitcase is still a mess.”

He quickly bowed his head, looking for something to do, fearing she’d kick him out next.

Felicity couldn’t help but laugh through her frustration.

“I don’t need your help.”

“Then, maybe I can clean your room! You haven’t made your bed yet—”

“Enough.” She sighed, “Let’s just go out and eat. I’m hungry too.”

“…”

She handed him the phone, and Miles took it, “Mr. Turner.”

“You mustn’t harass Felicity anymore, you have to promise me! I’m telling you, your mother promised me that if you made Felicity cry again, she’d drag you back herself!”

“Don’t worry, I won’t do it again.”

“When you said you wanted to marry Felicity, you promised to take good care of her. And then what? You bring up this Esther, causing my Felicity so much pain she had to cancel the wedding and flee back to Anglonia!”

Felicity was Jeffrey’s world, the daughter he had fought tooth and nail to protect, a memory he could never forget.

“Mr. Turner, I remember my father mentioning that when you married Aunt Karen, you promised to transfer all your assets to her as a guarantee. If you broke your promise, those assets would be willingly forfeited.” Miles paused, then slowly added, “I’m willing to make the same promise. If I hurt Felicity’s heart again, I’ll walk away from everything.”

“…”

There was a long silence on Jeffrey’s end.

After a while, he muttered, “Everett can’t keep his mouth shut!”

Felicity snatched the phone back, “Dad, don’t listen to him. I made the choice to come back here, which means I’m not planning on going back.”
