The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1679

"Just focus on getting Calvin through his surgery first!"

Felicity didn't want to be responsible for derailing someone's life.

"That's more like it."

Seeing her finally relent, Miles's heart softened. He opened his arms wide, pulling her back into an embrace, holding her tight.

"You really are my downfall."

Felicity tugged at her lips, her eyes suddenly brimming with tears, "Langston, I lied to you last time. I never... with Calvin... we didn't..."

"I know."

"You do?"

Miles raised his hand as if to chastise her, gently tapping her forehead.

"You've been following me around since we were kids. How could I not know you? When I found out you wanted to break up with me because you were sick, I knew everything. You can't hide from me!"

"..."

"Let's not have a 'next time,'" he said, wiping away her tears gently, "I'd really go crazy, okay?"

Felicity's long, dark lashes trembled as she nodded, "Okay."

...

When Karen called Dorothy, she didn't hold back and admitted it straight away.

"I wasn't sick, coming to Anglonia with Everett was mainly to get some answers for Langston."

"It was Everett's idea?" Karen's voice was sharp through the phone.

Dorothy chuckled, "Yes."

"I knew it! That plan couldn't have been yours."

Karen had to say it!
