Chapter 1465 Wherever there was a need for help or a lurking danger, he was there to face it.
Since Felicity had declared that the incident was as if it never happened, why does she now seem so hesitant to be close to him? Doesn't this mean that there's still something unresolved between them? Inheriting Karen's outspoken nature, it was rare for Felicity to find herself at a loss for words like she was now. She pondered for a long while, then suddenly said, "Langston, do you know why I absolutely hated doing morning exercises in elementary school?" Miles was taken aback.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHow did morning exercises cinto this conversation? "No idea." "Because you, being the exemplary high school student, would lead them." Felicity thought back to her younger self, a smirk tugging at her lips. "The moment you stepped onto the stage, I had to endure endless chatter from the girls about how handsyou were, how pretty your face was, your eyes, even your hands." "...And then?" She shrugged, "Then, hearing my nFelicity, and yours Miles, they assumed we were siblings and would swarm me, askingto deliver their love letters to you, inquiring about everything related to you." Miles squinted, trying to recall those days.
Back then... his focus was solely on computers and academics. Once his homework was done, he'd dive into coding, never getting distracted by anything else.
But, as far as he could remember, Felicity hardly ever approached him at school, nor did she act as a courier for anyone's love letters.
Still, he couldn't be entirely sure.
It was too long ago to remember clearly.
"Langston, do you get it now?" "Hmm?" Miles blinked, shaking his head, "No, I don't." She had expected as much.

Felicity shook her head, grinning, "No, I never delivered any." "Let's head back, get ssleep, Langston." She took a deep breath, returning to her usual carefree demeanor. "Calvin will be back in the country in a few days, and we'll- probably leave together. Once we're gone, your life will still be the sam nothing will change! And might not return to the country much." Even if she had to cback, she wouldn't tell him.
Calvin again! The mere thought of the man in the photo, smiling with dimples on display, irked Miles unexplainably, his heart stinging as if bitten by an insect. "He's coming specially to pick you up?" "Yeah!" Felicity nodded, forcing a bright smile. "Calvin missesterribly if we are apart even for a day, afraid I might get kidnapped here, so he rushed over." "We're very sweet together, unaffected by whether or not it was my first time! So, don't feel guilty about the past, it's not about responsibility or lack thereof! Strictly speaking, the incident happened because I drugged you, making you innocent, the fault lies with me."
She spread her arms, spinning in a circle in front of Miles, "See, even, the instigator/don't feel guilty, why should you dwell on it?"
His lips twitched slightly, eyes locked on her face, "Have you told-Calvin about what happened five years ago?" "Not a word! And don't you tell Esther either." Felicity took a few steps back, raising her hand to punch in the security code, "Langston, is there... anything else?" The hint to leave couldn't have been clearer.
CUMS
Miles lifted his gaze, staring at her intently for a long moment before speaking in a deep voice, "You're sure, you won't marry me." "Yes, absolutely sure."
