The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1607

Calvin felt like a whirlwind of thoughts erupted in his mind, the kind he couldn't suppress even if he tried. His nervousness made him swallow hard, his Adam's apple bobbing visibly.

"Felicity, I actually—"

"You mean you're childfree by choice?" Felicity cut him off before he could finish.

Caught off guard by her accurate guess, Calvin couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed.

"Uh... yeah, I really don't like kids. Whenever we have family or friends over, and they bring their little ones, it drives me crazy! The idea of not having kids ever? That's music to my ears!"

Seeing Felicity's silent response, Calvin thought he might have a chance and quickly added, "For real! I can show you my text conversations with my folks. I've told them countless times I don't want kids!"

"Calvin."

"Here!"

She sighed, "Miles is the man I've loved for so long, I can't just betray him. That's why I have to break up with him toughly. And you, I genuinely see you as a friend! So, I can't lead you on either."

Not wanting kids and physically unable to have them are two different things.

It's normal for him to dislike the noise and chaos of children at his age! Felicity herself wasn't too fond of the idea before.

But... once you're faced with the reality of being unable to conceive, that's a whole different story from simply not wanting them.

What if Calvin changes his mind as he gets older?

Moreover, the most important point was—

She didn't love Calvin, not in the romantic sense.

"Let's not make assumptions, okay? Who are you to decide for me? That's kind of betraying my trust, don't you think?"

"I'm not arguing with you, it's just, we're not possible."

Felicity had to be more firm in her words.

She had to crush any hope Calvin might have had.

"..."

"If you still want to be friends in the future, let's not bring this up again. And please, keep this between us."

Calvin's lips moved as if he wanted to say more.

But seeing Felicity's weary gaze, he swallowed his words.
