Chapter 1661
As soon as Dorothy finished her sentence, Miles was through security faster than his parents!
It was as if he wished he could teleport directly to Felicity's side right then and there.
Once they boarded the plane and settled into their seats, it finally hit him.
"Mom, if Felicity's in trouble, why are Aunt Karen and Mr. Turner still in Eldorria City?"
Shouldn't they be more anxious?
"Well, the thing is... Aunt Karen and Mr. Turner probably knew about the issue for a long time already, and they've been keeping it from us."
Miles was lost in the fog, not quite grasping his mother's words.
Everett, on the other hand, was straightforward. He believed his son could handle the truth!
"Our guess is that Felicity might be having some fertility issues."
"Reputation?"
What happened to Felicity's reputation?
Everett rolled his eyes, "Not reputation, fertility! Having kids!"
"Ah..." Miles blinked, slowly catching on, "So, you and Mom are going to Anglonia to confirm this?"
"Yes." Dorothy nodded, then looked earnestly at her son, "I'm asking you, and I want a truthful answer, no lies! If, indeed, Felicity can't have children, and it's incurable, would you resent her?"
Though she had an inkling of what the answer would be, she decided to ask again.
To hear it from her son.
"Of course not! Mom, how could I ever... ever use the word 'resent' when it comes to Felicity?"
She had grown up in his arms. No matter what, he couldn't possibly apply such a word to her!
"I knew it." Dorothy smiled, "Your dad and I talked, and we both feel that Felicity suddenly refusing to be with you, insisting on breaking up, is because of the infertility! She's afraid of holding you back, of wasting your chance to have children."
Honestly.
Hearing this, Miles felt somewhat stunned.
If what his parents said was true, that this whole ordeal was because she was infertile, then he would have to-
Give Felicity a good spanking!
Did she have so little faith in her Langston? Thinking he would care about that?
She was being utterly foolish!
...
On her way to the airport, Felicity received a call from Calvin.
"I'm at your place, brought you some dumplings. Where are you?"
He would drive to Felicity's place from his office every day at this time to bring her food.
"I'm not at home! Ms. Sanchez and Mr. Lopez are coming from Eldorria City, so I'm on my way to pick them up!"
She spoke naturally, without any hint of wanting to hide anything.
Calvin was quick on the uptake.
"Your Ms. Sanchez and Mr. Lopez, that's Langston's parents, right?"
"... Yeah."
"What are they coming for? To convince you to take your brother back?" Calvin's tone changed.
He sounded like a lion whose territory had been invaded.
Felicity massaged her forehead,
speechless, "Can we not talk about Langston and me anymore? If you bring it up again, I'm hanging up."
So much time had passed since their last meeting, several months!
She really didn't want to revisit the topic.
Because as long as no one mentioned it, Felicity could maintain her dignity, pretending everything was over, and she had already accepted the outcome.
"Stop! My bad, I shouldn't have been jealous." Calvin quickly backed down, Coaxing her, "Don't be mad, I just spoke out of turn because I was worried!"
