NovelEnglishChapter 1457 Being neighbors had its downsides, especially when Miles decided to drop by unannounced. Felicity's parents were all too eager to welchim, leaving her with no chance to say no. If she even thought about hiding away, Felicity was sure her mom would not hesitate to use her spare key to barge into her room.
With a sigh, she swung her legs off the bed and reached for her slippers.
On the other end of the phone, Calvin found the whole situation amusing. "In this world, there's actually something that makes Felicity sigh!" "Of course, there is. I'm not a superhero," Felicity replied, walking towards the door. "Calvin, I've got something to take care of. I'll talk to you later." "Alright, givea call when you're free. I'll be waiting!" "Always so smooth," she muttered before hanging up and opening the door.

He was so tall that he almost blocked out the hallway light, resembling a figure from a suspense movie. "Did I interrupt your chat with your boyfriend?" Felicity forced a laugh. "Not at all! Is there something you needed, Langston?" "Yes, I feel like we haven't finished our conversation." Pretending to be clueless, she asked, "What conversation?" Miles, seeing right through her, replied sternly, "Would you prefer to discuss this outside or in front of Aunt Karen?" "Outside!" Felicity said quickly, eager to avoid any family .
It had been a while since Felicity had been back to Eldorria City, and the place had changed a lot. Sitting in the back of the car, she admired the city's night lights, their neon colors flickering beautifully against the urban landscape.
The reason she sat in the back, rather than the passenger seat, was simple - Felicity believed that seat wasn't meant for her, adhering to her principle of not occupying the co-driver's spot unless single.
The drive had been silent until they pulled off the main road and stopped by the riverbank of Eldorria City. It was then Felicity tentatively broke the silence. "Langston, what did you want to talk about? You're not planning to leavehe? ssort of punishment, are you? didn't bring any money." Miles sighed, stepping out of the car to face her. "Should I just be upfront?" "Go ahead, I'm listening." "It's about us... What if you broke up with your boyfriend, and I broke up with Esther, and then..." "And then you marry me?" Felicity finished his sentence for him.
Miles looked at her, his expression serious, and nodded.
"Why? Why would you want to do that?" Silence fell between them.

"Langston, it's been a long time. You have a girlfriend now. Do you really want to break up with Esther just because you feel responsible for me, to give closure to whatever happened between us? She'sl.ne innocent in all this," Felicity Said,
avoiding his gaze, even though she could see how much Esther meant to him And did he not feel the sabout her? She kept that question to herself.
Miles seemed at a loss for words, his emotions visibly conflicted.
Felicity then asked, her voice soft but firm, "Letask you this, Miles, Do on you love me? I mean in the way a NO man loves a woman, not just liking someone. Is that part of your reason for wanting to marry me?"
