The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

He couldn't remember agreeing to it just moments ago.

The atmosphere once more hit a deadlock, and Felicity found herself with her shirt being tugged, making escape seem impossible!

Her mind raced through countless scenarios of evasion, yet none could be brought to life.

Resigning herself to the situation, Felicity let out a soft sigh, speaking with a hint of acceptance, "Langston, I was really young back then, clueless, you know? When the other kids talked about how amazing kissing felt, of course, I wanted to try it out too! Little did I know I'd be duped by Bobby, leading to everything that followed! I've stayed away from home for five years as penance for that mistake. Isn't that punishment enough? Can we... just let it go?"

"So, what do you want then?" she felt she had said enough, but if he was still not satisfied, she'd have to listen to him.

Both were suddenly enveloped in silence.

For Miles hadn't really thought about what he actually wanted.

Seeing Felicity today had been unexpected!

Five years had passed.

Had this happened right when the incident occurred, Miles's first instinct might have been to take responsibility, like coming clean to Aunt Karen and Mr. Turner, then planning a wedding right after her college graduation. But five years had gone by.

He was nearly thirty now, and Esther was the first girlfriend he had seriously committed to.

And then, without a single visit home in those five years, she just suddenly reappears!novelbin

So, when Felicity asked what he wanted, he was at a loss.

"Miles?"

Suddenly.

Esther's voice reached them.

They both looked over-

Esther had come looking when they hadn't returned for a while.

Felicity moved quickly, pushing Miles away to put some distance between them, "Over here!"

As Esther approached, she glanced at Felicity, then at Miles, raising an eyebrow slightly, "You guys done talking?"

"All done! Just catching up,

Langston was just fussing over whether had a boyfriend overseas! Felicity flashed her trademark bright smile, revealing all eight of her teeth, "You might not know this, but Langston and I are like siblings! So he always nags me."

Esther smiled too, stepping closer to Miles's side, "I know, he always treats you guys like his own sisters."

After all, between the Lopez and the

Turner families, with five kids in

total, Miles was the only boy

Waking

four his sisters.

To outsiders, they were just one big happy family of siblings.

"Yeah, my brother's the best, you've got good taste!" Felicity even gave a thumbe up, "Anyway, I'll leave you

two to it. I'm heading back to spend time with my folks!"

She hurried off as if chased by some monster.

Once Felicity was gone, Esther looked up at Miles, sensing something was off.

"Miles, what's wrong? Feeling okay?"

"I'm fine." Miles's brows furrowed, his lips barely moving, "Let's head back."

...

The moment Felicity entered the Bay Residence, she greeted everyone before quickly slumping on the couch, feigning discomfort.

By the time the young couple arrived, she had moved on to the next phase-pretending to be asleep.

Ms. Sanchez and her mom were there, endlessly praising someone, Esther this, Esther that.

Felicity, with her eyes closed, felt her eyelashes twitch.

The name Esther wasn't new to her.

She had heard it five years ago, just never met the person.
