The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1559

At that moment, Felicity couldn't stop the memories from flooding back. It was just yesterday, in the wee hours, when she had offered herself to Miles, suggesting he could sleep over.

And then... he had rejected her.

The shame washed over her like a tidal wave.

She had genuinely thought that after all the time they had spent together, Miles would at least seem a bit downhearted about their breakup for a while!

Because she had no idea how long it would take her to get over him.

But the very next day, he had moved on to Esther!

They were together, just like that, without missing a beat.

Felicity felt like she wasn't just foolish; she was downright masochistic.

This trip back home had been a mistake from start to finish!

Just...

Utterly pointless.

But then again, she thought.

Miles hadn't followed her to Anglonia five years ago, and now, after she was the one to suggest breaking up, it was his right to reconnect with his ex if he was single, wasn't it?

No harm done.

Looking at her phone screen again, she saw that Esther had already hung up.

Without a second thought, Felicity popped the SIM card out of her phone and tossed it into the nearby trash can as if it were tainted.

Her father, Jeffrey, watched her with wide eyes. "What on earth are you doing?"

"Dad, I'm ditching this number. Langston's ex keeps calling and bothering me. I don't want to deal with it anymore."

"She's trying to bully you?" Jeffrey's protective instincts flared. His daughter was his world, and he wouldn't stand for anyone causing her distress.

"It's not like that. Who could bully your daughter? It's just... she wanted to call and rub it in my face that she's with Langston now."

Felicity wasn't naive.

She knew exactly what that call had been about.

"..."

"Let them be. I've got to go through security now. I'll get a new SIM card and text you as soon as I land. You should head back."

Jeffrey nodded reluctantly, "Alright, but make sure you message me!"

"I will." Felicity added, "And don't give my new number out to anyone."
