The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1555

"Why do you have to feel crappy? What do you expect me to do about it?"

It's not like she could... help him relieve his stress, right?

After all, she was now his ex-girlfriend.

"It's not that. I'm just feeling a bit dizzy," Miles confessed, not lying about his condition. He did feel unsteady, though he was fine just moments ago...

Perhaps the quick shower he took to cool off was a bad idea. His brain must have been deprived of oxygen, not to mention his injury.

"Oh." Felicity's cheeks flushed with a hint of embarrassment as she stooped to support him. "You better get back to bed. I'll help you."

After all, changing his dressing while he was lying down wasn't an issue.

Miles was tall, making it quite a challenge to assist him.

The few steps from the bedroom door to the bed felt like a marathon, and she was so exhausted she could feel her stomach grumbling with hunger!

"Should we call your family doctor to check on you?" she asked.

"No need."

"Just lie down then, I'll change your dressing."

He closed his eyes and nodded, "Mhm."

Felicity stood up and fetched the medicine and bandages as he had instructed.

She wasn't exactly skilled at this delicate task, but with no one else around, she had no choice but to manage.

As she carefully unwrapped the bandages, the sight of his wound made her cringe. It wasn't long enough to need stitches but was still quite severe. Just looking at it, she could almost feel the pain he must have gone through!

Gently dabbing at the wound with iodine, she muttered unconsciously, "All this over a breakup? Getting drunk and landing yourself in the hospital... How embarrassing."

"A breakup? Just like that?" Miles opened his eyes, fixing her with a steady gaze. "Just like that?"

"Well, what else? Sure, we've known each other for a long time, but we weren't together for that long. Plus..."

Plus, it was she who had been harboring a secret crush, not him!

If anyone should be suffering, it was supposed to be her!
