The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1543

At that moment, Felicity couldn't for the life of her shake off the words Craig had texted Abigail.

【How could I let you go try on wedding dresses alone?】

Craig, who had spent the entire night at the hospital and was even zooming on the freeway late at night, knew better than to let a girl go try on wedding dresses by herself.

And what about Miles?

She paused for a few seconds, then immediately redialed his number.

Miles picked up quickly.

"Felicity, did you see the message I sent you?"

"I did." Her voice was tight, her red lips pursed, carrying a hint of defiance, "I want you back here. Now."

"Felicity..."

"Come back."

After a brief pause, Miles cautiously tried to soothe, "I've already made it to the hospital. I'll just take a quick look and then drive straight back!"

Felicity remained silent.

He continued, trying to communicate rationally, "Felicity, although it was Esther who pursued me at first, I was the one who agreed to go out with her. And yes, breaking up with her was quite abrupt. I'm not great at communicating and might have been a bit harsh, leading her to attempt suicide. I feel responsible for that."

Responsibility.

Always responsibility!

Felicity had thought she might lose to responsibility, but never like this.

"Do you understand me?" he asked again.

"No."

Miles sounded troubled, "She's really in critical condition. It's a matter of life and death! I'll be back as soon as I can, an hour at most! Please wait for me at the bridal shop."

Felicity had more to say.

But it all got stuck in her throat, and she couldn't utter a single word.

As she looked at the screen of her phone, the call timer kept ticking up, second by second.

She forced a smile, "Don't rush on my account."

Outside the hospital.

Miles had redialed Felicity's number seven or eight times, to no avail.

Instead, it was Esther's father who called him again!

"Have you arrived?"

"...Yes."

"Why haven't you come up yet? My Esther is willing to give up her life for you; you're not trying to shirk your responsibilities, are you?!"

"No." Miles's voice was deep, "I'm on my way to the emergency room now."

He hung up and tried calling Felicity once more.

This time it went straight to voicemail.

Miles frowned deeply and hurried into the hospital.

He thought to himself, resolve the situation here quickly, and then go back to properly make things right with her!
