The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1642

Surprisingly, when Craig came out, aside from his clothes being a bit wrinkled, he was fine.

Aurora immediately rushed over to him, inspecting him from head to toe.

If it weren't for the fact that they were still at the police station, she would have almost torn off Craig's clothes to check for any hidden injuries.

"I'm not hurt," Craig mumbled, his demeanor that of a scolded puppy, all droopy and guilty. "He couldn't lay a finger on me."

Duncan, with his gym-built physique, was no match for Craig, who was accustomed to manual labor and the strength it built over the years.

Aurora breathed a sigh of relief, glaring at him, "Proud of yourself, are you?"

"No..." His head sunk even lower. "Sorry for worrying you."

"You think I'm mad about that? Duncan deserved a good thrashing for the way he spoke to you!"

Aurora didn't think Craig was in the wrong.

"Then why are you..."

"I'm mad because you never tell me anything! This incident dragged on for so long. If you had told me earlier, I would have come right away! Why wait until sunset?" She took a deep breath and stepped forward to grab Craig's hand. "Enough of that, let's not talk about it now. Let's go grab some food."

He must be starving after being held up for so long!

"I'm fine."

"Then consider it keeping me company, okay?"

Craig's eyes flickered, his brows furrowed slightly. "You're really not mad?"

"About the fight with Duncan?"

"Yeah."

"Why would I be?"

Though fighting was wrong, the instigator was clearly Duncan!

If it weren't for their wedding being the next day, Aurora wouldn't have let it slide so easily!

It wasn't a matter of Duncan wanting to reconcile; it was her not wanting to!

"He's your classmate's brother."

"Even if he was my classmate's dad, or grandfather, it makes no difference to me!" Aurora paused, suddenly raising an eyebrow in suspicion. "Hey? How did you know?"

"I haven't eaten either. How about we go together?"

Miles wasn't giving up.

She furrowed her brows, turning to face him. "I already told you, I'm going home to eat!"

"Yes, I got that! So I'm saying, let's go together, to the K&J Mansion."

"..."

"Aunt Karen surely won't mind feeding me."

Felicity was at her wit's end.

"How have you become like this?" she blurted out, frustrated.

"No matter how I've changed, as long as it means spending more time with you, call me shameless or say I have no pride, I'll accept it."

"..."

"Felicity, if there's anything bothering you, can you let me know?" Miles quickened his pace to catch her wrist. "Whatever it is, we can face it together."
