Chapter 1473
Felicity looked at him with the most sincere eyes she could muster, lifting her hand in a pledge, "I swear, I got this."
Silence filled the car, cooling the atmosphere to a freezing point. She deliberately avoided Miles's glare, offering an awkward smile, "Look, I was just thinking... taking you to the hospital might dent your pride. But if you're cool with it, I'm totally up for accompanying you!" He stayed silent, making her anxiety spike.
Just as Felicity was brainstorming other solutions, Miles finally spoke up, "Fine, you'll come with me to the hospital."RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
"Wait, what?"
Seeing him start the engine, Felicity was caught off guard, "Like, right now?! Calvin is still waiting for me back at the room!" "Yes, now."
He couldn't bear the thought of Felicity spending another moment alone with that guy!
Whatever the excuse, he'd rather have her with him.
Felicity muttered under her breath, "Geez, in such a rush..."
...
As the car pulled up to the hospital entrance, she stepped out and looked up at the signage, feeling a mix of emotions.
Isn't it said that life has a way of leveling the playing field?
Miles, with his good looks, reputable family, sensible parents, high education, and unparalleled work ethic among his peers, had it all.
But who would have guessed? Beneath that tall and handsome exterior, he had... issues.
She quickly sent a text to Calvin on WhatsApp, telling him to rest up at the hotel for a bit. When she looked up, she met Miles's gaze fixed on her. "If you're here with me, try to stay focused."
She was taken aback, "Focused? I was just messaging Calvin!"
It was Miles, though, whose phone had been buzzing non-stop since they got in the car, as if a myriad of urgent matters awaited his attention. "Langston, maybe you should take that call?"
It sounded like his phone would die from all the ringing.
"No need."
Miles couldn't afford to be distracted; he had to pretend not to hear.
Otherwise, he'd be pulled into the endless whirlpool of work waiting for him at the office.
Following Miles to the urology department felt like a self-fulfilling prophecy to Felicity. She had joked about accompanying someone for

The waiting game began: registration, payment, consultation. Every step involved a queue.
Felicity glanced around at the other men, whispering, "Langston, haven't you made any insider connections in Eldonia City over the years? Can't we, like, skip the line?"
Calvin was still waiting for her back at the hotel!
A trip to Eldorria City shouldn't be spent cooped up in a hotel room.
Miles shot her a glance, her ulterior motives almost visible on her face, "No connections." "Maybe I should call my dad?"
"And what will you tell Mr. Turner? That you're accompanying someone to the urology clinic?" Silenced, Felicity resigned herself to the process of tests and examinations alongside Miles.
By the time they were done, and without even a preliminary diagnosis, the afternoon had already crept up on them.

"What's it say? Let me see!"
She tiptoed closer to get a better look.
The report read: Resting state 6.9 inches, active state 8.3 inches.
