The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Pushed to the edge, Felicity still refused to yield, but Miles had already lost the battle. Pulling away from her, Miles stood up and draped his suit jacket over her shoulders. "I'm sorry, I..."

"There's nothing to be sorry for." He couldn't finish his sentence before Felicity, with a hoarse voice, cut in, "It was me who started this whole thing. Everything that followed was my own doing. It has nothing to do with you."

She had wanted Miles to go back to his country, but not with a sense of guilt.

Even if it meant hating herself, that was fine, but feeling indebted was out of the question! Because if he felt that way, he wouldn't be able to forget and start over. Felicity sat up from the couch, even taking a moment to fix her hair that had been tousled in the scuffle.

"Langston, even though you've watched me grow up, you don't understand me one bit! Your undying loyalty is because you think I'm just like you, capable of deep love!" she scoffed, wiping away the smeared lipstick from her kiss, "But, I've been acting all along."

Felicity looked up at him, a provocative smile on her lips, "I've always been juggling several men at once, Calvin was just one of them! My teasing you was merely to see what it looks like when someone so high and mighty falls from grace."

He clearly didn't believe her, his eyes fixed on her face.

"You're not like that."

Felicity shrugged, hands spread wide, "See, I'm such a good actress! Even someone as smart as you was fooled by me."

"I was about to end the game, but you insisted on chasing me to Anglonia, relentlessly seeking some damn opportunity! I had no choice but to suggest a one-month trial period. After you left, I was going to immediately accept Calvin's pursuit. After all, you're too old- fashioned for me; even in bed, you stick to the same few moves, no novelty!"

Felicity glanced at him with a scoff, her voice tinged with mockery, "Honestly, I still prefer Calvin; he offers me more excitement!"

Instantly, Miles's face darkened as if ink could drip from it.

"You two...slept together?"novelbin

"Ha!" She laughed as if she had

heard the biggest joke, "Only you et

would believe that after living

together for so long, we hadn't slept together!"

"Lying to you is really boring; I'm tired of this game." Felicity, not minding the wrinkled state of her

clothes, tossed his jacket back toet

him, "You should go back to

your

country, stop wasting my time here."

She dropped those words and started to leave.

But as she passed by Miles, he still grabbed her slender arm!

As if his muscles remembered on their own!

"One month."

"What?"

"You yourself said, I have a one-month trial period."

Felicity was at a loss for words, her expression showing impatience, "Didn't you understand? I have more than just you!"

"It doesn't matter." Miles, enduring the pain tearing through his heart, calmly spoke, "Felicity, I said I wanted this opportunity."

"You want me to keep my word, then you should too." He forcefully pulled her into his embrace, "I won't track your location anymore, I won't be jealous of Calvin! Please, after

one month is up, give our

this

relationship some serious thought, okay?"
