NovelEnglishMiles threw off the duvet and slid into his slippers, ready to head out without a second glance back at her.
His movements were swift, but just as he stood up, his tall frwobbled.
"Hey, watch out!"
Felicity's concern overpowered her, and she reached out instinctively to steady him, blurting out, "Didn't you just have surgery for
a peptic ulcer? Why on earth are you drinking?"
"I'm fine."
He didn't directly address her question. Once he regained his balance, he dropped his arms, putting sdistance between them,
"Thanks for the concern, I'm outta here."
Watching Miles leave her bedroom and walk out of the K&) Mansion without even bothering to change his slippers, Felicity was still
trying to process what had just happened.

The sound of someone else in the house startled her, and Karen emerged from the master bedroom.
Spotting her daughter in the living room, she rubbed her eyes in disbelief, "Felicity?!"
"Mom."
"What are you... doing back?" Karen smacked her forehead, remembering, "Oh! Is Langston still in your room?! He had a few drinks
with your dad earlier, and | saw he dozed off, so | had your dad help him to your room to lie down for a bit."
She hadn't expected her daughter toe hin the middle of the night!
Felicity massaged her temples, equally surprised by the night's unexpected turn of events.
"It's okay, Langston's already left."
The incident that night ensured Felicity's return to Eldorria City was anything but dull.
Aside from a message from Abigail suggesting a shopping spree, Felicity spent most of her tat the K& Mansion, just hanging
out with her parents.
"Felicity, you seem to have grown up so much all of a sudden."
Jeffrey'sment wasn't one of mere pride.
It was laced with concern.
"Really? | don't think I've changed much." She was lounging on the living room couch, legs propped up, scrolling through her phone
just like before.
"Take it."
Seeing her dad insist, she got up and accepted the card.

Felicity was bored and would have immediately agreed, but then she remembered something and hesitated.
Jeffrey quickly added, "Langston's beamped at work, staying late every night. Decorating isn't really his scene, so he
probably won't be there."
"Alright! I'lle along. Letjust change."
She sprang from the couch and dashed to her room to change into jeans and a tee - practical for the occasion.
Following her parents to the Bay Residence, they were greeted by the sight of the red carpet already laid out, with the wedding still
days away.
Aurora greeted her with a warm smile, "Felicity, love that short hair! Makes you look eighteen!"
"Really? Then | might just keep it short from now on."
As Felicity lifted her gaze, she caught sight of Craig standing behind Abigail.
