The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Honestly, Felicity felt a wave of confusion and doubt wash over her when she heard those words.

She was almost positive that if she told Miles now, he would say he didn't care about not having children. But then, the Lopez legacy would end there.

Even if Mr. Lopez and Ms. Sanchez had another son, Felicity couldn't help but think she would spill the beans.

But now wasn't the time.

"Langston, can you let me go and start a relationship with another woman?"

She even selfishly thought that maybe after they got married and had kids, if things didn't work out and they divorced, if he came back to her, she could return to the States. At least that way... Langston could have a child.

She'd make a great stepmom!

As absurd as it sounded, this was the only possibility she could think of that allowed for a child and still being with Langston.

"You're suggesting I see other women?" Miles was utterly taken aback by her words.

"Yes."

He became anxious, fully enveloping Felicity's hand in his, holding and rubbing it.

"No, that's wrong! You used to get jealous and mad over me and Esther, you can't just push me towards someone else now!" That was Miles' greatest fear.

If she lost even the jealousy, then she truly didn't love him anymore!

"Things are different now."

"How are they different? Felicity, I really can't guess. Can you just tell me, please?"

At that moment, Miles, the one who barely glanced at Duncan at the precinct, seemed like a completely different person.

In his life, he probably would only ever be this vulnerable for Felicity.

"I don't have anything to say." She coldly turned her face away, "Didn't you say I still owe you half a month's trial period? Then I'll stay in Eldora City for another half a month. Once the period is over, you'll let me go as per our agreement." noveldrama

"You promised. You said you'd keep your word."

After leaving the precinct, Craig was unusually quiet.

Even when Aurora tried to cheer him up, he could only muster a weak smile, clearly preoccupied.

Having been together for so long, she had an inkling of his thoughts.

So, she took Craig's hand and placed it on her belly, "Craig, our baby is right here."

He looked down, afraid to apply any pressure, "Yeah."

"We already have the fruit of our love, and tomorrow, we'll be legally married. I won't allow you to have any doubts! Got it?" Craig lowered his gaze, "I feel like, being with me, you're settling for less."

Even though Duncan's words were infuriating.

But...

They held some truth.

What he could offer was probably the least compared to all the men Aurora knew, even though it was everything he had.

"If you keep this up, I'll really get

mad! We're about to get married and you're still doubting our commitment? Craig, do you actually love me? Haven't I done enough for you to firmly choose me?"

All she ever wanted was the simplest of things.

Being with Craig, she never felt like she was settling.

"I do choose you."

"Then stop worrying about whether I'm settling or not! I'm not stupid. I know what kind of man I'm with and what my future holds. I've never let anyone's words sway me! Craig, I

hope you can feel the same.
