The trick? He got it from his old man, no doubt about it.
Catch someone off guard with a question, and you're likely to get the most honest answer. It's a lesson he learned the hard way as a kid.
And, sure enough!
Felicity paused, taken aback, before glaring at him. "I'm not having kids with you!"
He just sighed, "Ah, well, I guess I'll just have to donate my fortune then. No one to leave it to."
"You're threatening me?"
"Not at all." Miles raised his hands, his too-handsome face a picture of innocence and sincerity, "I'm just discussing my plans. If you end up not forgiving me, not marrying me, then I guess I'll stay single forever. No talk of kids at all."
"Nice try," she muttered under her breath. "For all I know, you could be getting a call from Esther in a second, saying she's thought of ending it all, and misses you, and you'll rush right back..."
"That's not happening! I promise."
Felicity pursed her lips, silent.
He leaned in, asking gently, "Just give me one more chance, okay?"
She didn't respond right away, but as they neared the restaurant, she finally said, "Langston, I get what you're trying to say. Let me think it over. I think I rushed into agreeing to marry you, and we never really ironed out our differences. I need to be sure this time."
Miles nodded, "Okay, I'll wait for you, however long it takes."
"Let's eat, I'm starving."
"Sure."
He parked the car and walked around to open the door for Felicity.
Seeing Miles, a CEO, doing what seemed like an assistant's job, she felt a twinge of guilt.
"You don't have to do this..."
"I want to," he said, offering his hand. "You're not quitting on me now, are you?"
Felicity looked down, thinking, "Give me a month. I'll have an answer for you."
