The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1554

She swore! She really stayed just because she saw Miles was hurt and worried that he, being all macho, wouldn't handle it properly.

Following him into the living room, she noticed the fresh flowers she bought still on the coffee table, next to a snack box filled with potato chips and jerky she picked out.

Taking a deep breath, Felicity didn't say anything at first. She went to change the water in the vase and trimmed the stems a bit.

By the time she came back, Miles had changed into his loungewear, sitting properly on the couch watching her.

"Remember to change the water for these flowers daily. If you want them to last longer, you can add a bit of sugar in the water."

"Okay."

"And these snacks, keep an eye on their expiration dates. Toss them if they're out of date. Don't get sick—"

"Felicity." He suddenly spoke up, pulling the flower-tending Felicity into his embrace.

Caught off guard, she nearly fell into his lap!

"What are you doing?"

Felicity struggled instinctively, completely forgetting she was wearing a silk nightgown, which was practically a test of a man's restraint!

"Stay still."

"..."

Miles wanted to say more, but the unexpected closeness and the thin fabric of the loungewear created an awkward bulge, making the moment rather embarrassing for him.

He let go of Felicity, cleared his throat, and tried to cover up with his shirt.

But that only made it more obvious!

"I'll be right back, heading to the bathroom."

"Oh."

Watching Miles hurry back to the master bedroom, Felicity frowned slightly and continued with her flowers, thinking whether she should also take her clothes from the master bedroom.

After all, they were practically living together, preparing for the wedding. She had left some of her frequently worn clothes here.

Luckily, there weren't many!

Since she didn't plan to stay in Eldorria City for long after coming back from Anglonia, she didn't pack much.
