"Treat her well, will you?" "Uh-huh." Miles cast his gaze downwards, finding himself at a loss for words with his future brother-in-law. The air between them grew heavy with silence.
After a few minutes, it was Craig who broke the stillness.
"Trying to drink yourself to death?" Miles blinked, caught off guard, "...I don't know. I just thought if I got drunk enough, I wouldn't have to think about anything." Otherwise, the pain was too much to bear.
Every inch of him ached.

She was feisty and unreasonable, always approaching him with a storm brewing in her eyes.
Standing next to his nephew, the two made quite the mismatched pair.
But love, as he hade to accept, knew no bounds of mismatch or ipatibility. If two people loved each other, they were meant to be.
"She doesn't want to." Craig chuckled softly.
"What's so funny?" Miles looked up.
"I used to think all you rich folks never knew true love, always flitting from one arm to the next! After all, with no financial pressures, all you had to do was enjoy life to the fullest." The wealth of the Lopez Corporation alone was enough to last them several lifetimes without running out.
"Is that why you insisted on breaking up with Abigail after finding out about her background?" "Not exactly." Craig clicked his tongue, then said, "I felt like I didn't measure up." In terms of social status, background, education, wealth, he felt short in every aspect.
Miles smirked, "In our family, we're known for our loyalty, starting with my grandfather. Once we set our eyes on someone, we're all in." "I've heard Aurora mention your parents' story." "Them?" A deeper smile played on Miles' lips, "The fact that my sister and I exist is a stroke of luck." A moment's hesitation back then could have changed everything.
"And now, aren't your parents madly in love?" "My mom is my dad's entire world." Craig raised an eyebrow, "So, despite all the obstacles your parents faced, they ended up together. Maybe consider this just a rough patch." en.kikistories swn It seemed everything hade full circle.

Miles took a deep breath, "Felicity... she's different. She won't givea chance." "All this over a wedding dress trial?" "It started with that, but I honestly don't know why. After, she just shutoutpletely, no matter what I said or did." When it cto understanding women, Craig and Miles were on equal footing - clueless.
But Craig was the luckier of the two; in his relationship, Aurora took the initiative.
"Don't worry abouttoo much, you and Abigail. I'll be alright." Craig snorted, "You look like a walking worry ma." Aurora hadn't slept long before she woke up. After splashing swater on her face, she didn't rush to the hospital room to check on her brother. Instead, she pulled out her phone and looked up Felicity's number. en.kikistories The call didn't go through.
She tried again, with the sresult.
When calls failed, she turned to WhatsApp.
