Chapter 1448
The moment Felicity's plane touched down at Eldorria City Airport, her heart skipped a beat.
Just a day after receiving her college entrance exam results, she had fled to the UK in a hurry. After hiding away for five long years, this was her first time back.
As the plane came to a standstill, Felicity hadn't even stood up yet when her phone started ringing!
"Mom."
"Felicity, have you landed?"
"Yeah." She was juggling the phone in one hand, struggling to pull her suitcase down with the other, nearly dropping it on someone. Luckily, a gentleman behind her lent a hand, "Thanks." "No problem."
Hearing a male voice, Karen immediately raised her voice in excitement, "You're not alone? Did you bring a boyfriend?"
"...You're imagining things. He's just a fellow passenger."
"Ugh, alright then! Come on out, your dad's waiting at the pickup area, and we're driving straight to Bay Residence!" Karen sounded thrilled, "Just in time."
Bay Residence?
At the mention of those words, Felicity nearly dropped her phone!
"Mom, I'd rather not go to Bay Residence. You enjoy the gathering with Ms. Sanchez and the others. I'm a bit tired after the flight."
"Any other time, you can skip, but today is a special day. Now that you're back in Eldorria City, you must come!"
Special day?
"What special day? Ms. Sanchez having another baby for Mr. Lopez?"
"Hey! You and your jokes!" Karen sighed, "Today's the day Miles is bringing his girlfriend to meet the family!"
There was a dull "thud."
This time, Felicity really did drop her phone.
The gentleman from before bent down to help her again, his concern evident, "Miss, are you feeling alright? You look pale."
Of course, she looked pale.
Miles Lopez.
He had a girlfriend now.
...
Stepping out of the airport, Felicity immediately spotted her dad in the crowd-
After all, who else would bring a hundred red roses to pick up his daughter?
"My baby! Daddy's missed you so much!" Jeffrey, oblivious to the onlookers, went straight in for a bear hug that nearly knocked Felicity over.
"You've lost weight again. Have you
been too busy working over there?" He caressed his daughter's face with concern, making a snap decision, "What's the name of your company? Daddy will buy it out! That way, you won't have to work so hard." novelbin
Felicity couldn't help but laugh, patting her dad on the shoulder, "That might be a bit difficult."
"Why's that?"
"Because I've transferred to work
Mr. Lopez's international bra
She shrugged, raising an eyebrow, "Planning on buying out the Lopez Corporation?"
Felicity had to tiptoe to barely wrap an arm around her dad's shoulder "Relax, I'm all grown up. If I were really losing weight from stress, I would have quit by now! I'm just managing my figure!"
"Alright then. But if there's anything troubling you, you must tell Daddy! I'll help you, no matter what!"
She smirked, narrowing her eyes slyly, "Speaking of which... Dad, there is something you could help me with!"
Jeffrey immediately puffed up his chest, "Out with it! I'd climb the highest mountain or dive into the deepest sea for you!"
Felicity whispered into his ear, "Just a little thing! Um... I don't really want to go to Bay Residence. I just want to go home and sleep." Hearing this, Jeffrey chuckled awkwardly.
"That... won't work! Your mom just gave me strict orders to bring you there, and I dare not disobey her!"
