WorldNovelHearing those words, the first thing Miles thought of was Aunt Karen's remark from earlier that day.
She mentioned that Felicity now had Calvin by her side.
How could she possibly consider reconciling with him? "Yeah, it's over." He figured he ought to keep sdignity for himself.

This time, Miles couldn't help but glance at his father during a red light stop.
"Dad, I think it's tto get you shangover cure." Clearly, his father had one too many! Why else would he dredge up old wounds for no good reason? "Today, at the table, Mr. Turner was cut off mid-sentence by Karen, and both looked pretty guilty. Considering how long Jeffrey and I have known each other, this seems like no small matter." "Oh..." "What's with that 'oh'? It's about Felicity!" || || Everett took a moment to recall.
They had started talking about that after mentioning how Abigail was expecting.
So...
"Langston, is there a chance that Felicity broke up with you because she's seriously ill? Or something big happened back in Anglonia, and she didn't want to drag you into it?" Miles had to admit, hearing this made his heart skip a beat.
He even found himself slowing down the car reflexively.
But then he thought it through.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Felicity can't be seriously ill, otherwise Aunt Karen and Mr. Turner wouldn't be so calm still here. They would've flown to Anglonia to be with her by now! Plus, she posted on Twitter last month... going hiking with a... friend." Content belongs to en.kikistoriesAlthough that friend wasn't in the photo, just a glimpse of their clothing, Miles was somehow sure it was Calvin.
"As for trouble in Anglonia, I can't be sure, but I'll have someone look into it when we get back." Everett chuckled, "Why bother checking? Didn't you say it's over between you two?" Miles was left speechless.
He could only muster a weak defense, "Even if we don't reconcile, Felicity has been like a sister tosince we were kids. Caring for her is my duty as her brother. I'd do the sfor Abigail." Content belongs to en.kikistoriesEverett wasn't interested in such excuses.
He closed his eyes, resting his head against the car window, "I've said my piece. Don't blme for not warning you." "Mm." After another bout of silence, Everett spoke again.
"Besides Felicity, do you plan on marrying anyone else?" "...I haven't thought about it yet." He felt that asserting he had no intentions of marrying anyone else at this moment would sound childish.
This tMiles turned the question back, "Dad, you and mom aren't trying to rushinto marriage and kids, are you?" "Ha, me?" Everett scoffed before adding, "Having your mom in mydife is more than enough for me. As for pressuring you guys for grandchildren, it never crossed my mind." Content belongs to en kikistoriesDespite the Lopez family's wealth and influence, he didn't feel like there was a throne to inherit.
"Langston, during those years before I knew about you and Abigail, I was fully prepared to go through life childless." He himself had nearly missed out on having children, how could he then pressure his son to have his own? "Dad, so if I never marry, you wouldn't mind?" "Not at all. If you can't find the one, better to stay single."
