The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1672

Why on earth did she think she could eventually escape this mess?

“…”

“It was you who started this whole thing! And now, you think you're doing me a favor by acting all high and mighty? Did you even bother to ask me? Do you have any clue what I want?”

How could he possibly consider giving up on Felicity for the sake of a child?!

“I—”

“Don’t you speak! I can’t stand to hear another word,” Miles snapped, clamping a hand over her mouth again, “unless, of course, you’re about to say something I want to hear.”

“…”

Before Felicity could react, her phone started buzzing.

She reached out, pushing him away slightly, “Mmm!”

Miles released her but didn’t let go entirely, “Who’s calling?”

“How would I know? Let me check first.”

Just my luck!

It was Calvin.

Seeing that name flash on her screen, Miles’s handsome face darkened immediately, “Don’t answer it.”

“He might need something!”

“What could he possibly need?” he frowned, “Felicity, Calvin…you didn’t actually agree to be his girlfriend, did you?”

Miles had figured out the whole Calvin situation once he knew that their breakup was due to infertility issues. To him, Calvin was nothing more than a decoy!

But that was just a guess.

He hadn’t confirmed it!

Seeing Felicity actually considering taking his call, Miles felt a pang of unease.

“It’s not like that…” she replied instinctively.

Realizing what she had just implied.

Miles couldn’t help but smirk, “I knew it!”

Felicity sighed, rubbing her forehead, “I still need to take this call. We have some things to sort out.”

He frowned slightly but decided to show some “magnanimity.”

“Then go ahead.”

With him back in the game, Calvin knew he stood no chance.

“Uh…there’s been a bit of a complication.”

“What kind of complication?” Calvin was quick on the uptake, realizing immediately, “He found out about your situation, didn’t he?”

“…Yeah.”

Clearly, Calvin’s breath hitched.

“I’ll sort things out on my end and then we can talk.”

After Felicity hung up, she looked up to meet Miles’s gaze.

He narrowed his eyes, fixating on that last part of their conversation.

“Then, we can talk? What do you have to discuss with Calvin?”

As if her relationship issues were any of Calvin’s business!

“What’s between you and me, how does that concern Calvin?”

“Look! You’ve got it all wrong; a lot has happened these past few months.”

Like, Calvin still hasn’t gone through with his vasectomy reversal surgery.
