The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1483

Felicity was really getting fed up.

After a grueling day at the hospital, she was already wiped out. Now, she had to argue over past events with him!

Those incidents were the last things she wanted to dwell on.

“You do realize, if I spill everything to Esther, you can kiss your chances with her goodbye, right?”

She was just too kind-hearted, unwilling to be the one who wrecks a potential romance.

Had it been someone else, they might have already blabbed everything to Esther! Then, Miles would truly stand no chance!

She thought this threat would intimidate him.

Instead, Miles nonchalantly pulled out his phone, scrolled to Esther's contact, and shoved it in her face.

“Go ahead, tell her.”

“…”

“Come on, spill every little detail about us to her. I couldn’t care less.”

Felicity glared at him, speechless for a long moment before finally saying, “Ah! Let me guess, you think you're out of luck with Esther. She doesn’t want to reconcile, so you turn to me as a second choice?”

He really wanted to retort, but he was too flabbergasted to speak.

“Let me make this clear, Miles. I refuse to be anyone’s backup plan! I am me, not some stand-in, nor will I settle in matters of marriage!”

She would only marry someone who cherished her as much as she did them!

“Who said anything about being a stand-in?” Miles retorted, his eyebrows furrowing deeply, “And for your information, I’m not that desperate to settle for just any woman!”

He was, after all, a member of the Lopez family. Women flocked to him without effort!

It's not like he was so pitiful that he couldn’t find a wife!

“Then why did you lock me in the car?”

“Because you wanted to get out.”

Miles was at a loss for words.

At twenty-nine, with only one real sexual encounter under his belt, it was natural that any physical touch would leave him uncontrollable!

It wasn’t something that could easily subside.

“Either way, Esther and I are done.”

Miles coughed awkwardly, trying to cover up with his suit jacket.

But instead of hiding it, the jacket only made it more conspicuous, bulging out awkwardly.

He shifted his stance, trying to find a comfortable position to continue the conversation, but to no avail.

“Ah, so you’re willing to give up on your youthful infatuation just like that?”

“What youthful infatuation?”

“You’re still playing dumb! Miles, right after we slept together, you were murmuring Esther’s name in your sleep!”
