The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

"Seriously? You think you're the only one with feelings? What am I, a robot?"

Felicity quickly put on her sweetest voice, trying to smooth things over. "Oh, come on, those days are behind us. You know everything now, so why keep bringing it up?" "You think it's all in the past, huh? You have no idea the shadow it cast over me," Miles huffed. "I mean, just Calvin alone had me questioning everything, all the time!" "Langston, do you smell that? It's like a jar of pickles just opened in here."

"Yeah, I'm jealous! I'm openly, totally jealous!"noveldrama

What could Felicity say to that?

Was she even brave enough to say anything?

But with a quick flicker of thought, Felicity found a way to turn the tables.

"You know what? I'd say we're even!"

"Even?"

"Yup," she replied with a sly grin. "Remember, Langston, you had Esther before."

"Oh, don't play innocent with me. You even took her home to meet your folks! If my mom hadn't tricked me into going back to the UK, you two might've tied the knot by now!" Miles was momentarily speechless, his expression faltering.

"I never really dated Calvin; it was all just for show! But you and Esther-now that was a real relationship, and you two were seriously planning a future together!"

"I told Esther at the start, it was just a trial run!" Miles protested.

That much was true. At his age, without having been in a relationship, he figured something must be off. Esther had been pursuing him for ages, and she was sweet and gentle, so he thought he might as well give it a shot. "Even if it was just a trial, you still acknowledged her as your girlfriend. Calvin and I never had that! So, anyone who chases you gets a shot now?"

This barrage of questions was new territory for Miles, and he found himself at a loss.

He paused, furrowing his eyebrows, before replying, "That's not fair! After what you pulled, you just up and left for another country. I had no clue what you were thinking! I waited for ages you never even called. And now it's my fault?"

"If it's not your fault, whose is it? I didn't call you, but couldn't you pick up the phone?"

Who admits they were wrong and then voluntarily surrenders?

Throws themselves into the lion's den?

Miles sighed, pulling her back into his

darms Alright, alright, let's n the past. I promise et

bring it up again."

"That's more like it."

Felicity sighed, glancing out the window. "Langston, do you think Abigail and Craig are really over?"

"No idea," Miles admitted, genuinely unsure. "Abigail's got a soft heart, but she's stubborn too!"

And when it comes to matters of the heart, who can really predict?

Just like him and Felicity back then!

When they split, even Miles thought they'd never get back together.

He believed they'd never be a couple again.

But now, here she was, nestled in his arms.

"Honestly, I don't really want Abigail to stay with Craig."

"Why not?"

"She loves Craig way too much, to the point where she's lost herself It's only going to lead to more

Abigail, after all, was the heiress of the Lopez family!

She shouldn't have to suffer for love, should she?
