NovelEnglishChapter 1666 The fever medicine must have kicked in.
Felicity slept off the fever later on, sinking into a deeper, more restful slumber. Being sick sapped her of all strength, underlining the need for good rest.
Miles was itching to get answers, but seeing her so frail and feverish, he decided to let his parents wait another day. At least until she was in better shape tomorrow, then he'd have that holistic health practitioner cover. Dorothy, naturally, followed her son's wishes.

But he wasn't about to back down.
"Yeah, boyfriend. What about it?" Miles smirked, his eyes probing Calvin's face for any sign of deceit, "Whether that's true or not, you know best." "I'll make sure she gets the bubble tea.

Given the ties between the Lopez and Turner fas, Felicity could never fully cut off n him.
But Calvin was a different story.
He was an outsider.
