Chapter 1663
But the words were already out there, and it was Ms. Sanchez herself who had brought it up.
She had no choice but to bite the bullet and take people back to her place.
Meanwhile, driving the car, Miles sneakily glanced at Felicity.
He was secretly relieved that the apartment he had chosen for her was spacious enough, with plenty of rooms! Look, wasn't it proving useful now? Even though things had been pretty sour between them, Miles had never thought of taking back the apartment from her.
However, he couldn't help but imagine Felicity and Calvin getting cozy in that space...
The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, forcing himself to stop thinking in that direction.
A slight deviation from those thoughts, and he would pinch himself.
Miles had thought that was it for him in matters of the heart.
...
Back at Felicity's place, as soon as they entered, Miles's gaze was drawn to the dining table, specifically to a plate of dumplings there.
It wasn't so much their tempting aroma that caught his attention, but rather, what was beside them: some fruits, medications, and a note. What it said was quite intriguing.
Taking the opportunity while her parents were chatting with her, Miles walked over and glanced at the note as if by accident. As expected, it was from Calvin.
"Felicity, hope you can forgive and forget. Enjoy the dumplings for now, and I'll get you a fresh cup of bubble tea after work as an apology!" Below, he had drawn a simple sketch of hands pressed together in a plea.
Seeing this, Miles felt as if his heart was being squeezed mercilessly!
He could hardly breathe.
His parents' suspicions were just that, suspicions, for now.
But with Calvin's tone, it seemed like Felicity was indeed living with him!
Looking around the apartment, everything was clean and tidy.
Felicity had always hated doing housework, especially living alone, she'd just scrape by, so... these must have been Calvin's doing, right? Thinking this, he regretted reading the note.
Even more... he regretted coming.
"Are you hungry?"
From where Felicity was standing, she hadn't seen the note.
She only saw Miles staring at the dumplings on the dining table for quite some time.
Hearing her, Miles abruptly looked down at her, paused for a few

"Of course, why not?"
"Then I'll have some."
He still hid his feelings.noveldrama
Though he didn't throw away the note, he tucked it into the dumpling bag, a sly smile on his lips, "Thanks."
"There are chopsticks and

can help with."
"Alright."
After speaking, Felicity headed to the guest bedroom.
Knocking and entering, she just heard Dorothy mentioning she had a headache.
"Not feeling well? I've got some ibuprofen!"
"No need." Dorothy waved her off, a smile playing on her lips, "Old problem. actually came here because heard about a very famous traditional healer in the area.
I'm thinking of having him to
look." .
A traditional healer?

Traveling abroad specifically for a traditional healer was indeed a novel idea.
Yet, Felicity didn't delve deeper, merely thinking this healer must be exceptionally skilled.
"Actually, Felicity, you've been sick too, right? Maybe you could have the healer check you out as well."
"Ms. Sanchez, it's just the flu, can he deal with that?"
"Of course! Traditional healing is profound and vast."
She thought for a moment, then nodded, "If it's convenient, then sure!"
After all, Felicity really had been unwell for a while, feeling discomfort everywhere.
She just wanted to get better quickly!
