"It's none of your business, this is something between me and Felicity."

"Well, since you guys broke up, it definitely is my business now!"

Miles finally got it. If he wanted to take Felicity away today, he had to deal with this kid first.

But if he tried to snatch her away, he was worried it might wake Felicity up.

She was already feeling under the weather...

Taking a deep breath, Miles managed to suppress his anger and said in a low voice, "Calvin, out of respect for the care you've shown my fiancée, I don't want to get physical with you. But don't push me." "Fiancée? I doubt that."

Calvin had the upper hand because he knew Felicity so well!

If she truly cared about something, she'd dive in headfirst, tossing all logic and considerations aside. But if she got hurt or felt slighted, her first instinct was to run, to escape.

The fact that Felicity fled from the midst of wedding preparations back to Anglonia meant she was deeply hurt, her bottom line crossed.

"You're just trying to wedge yourself in while she's mad at me."

"Bro, I've always wanted to, not just now!"

In a battle of wits, Miles, who rarely interacted with others, was no match for Calvin.

But as he saw him about to carry Felicity away, Miles tightened his face and grabbed Calvin's shoulder!

Without much effort, he could pin him down.

Using his height advantage, he could even reach for Felicity's waist with his other hand.

"You!"

Calvin's face turned pale from pain, his brow furrowing immediately.

Holding someone in his arms, he couldn't fight back!

"Hand her over to me!"

"Felicity wouldn't want to go with you!"

After Calvin finished speaking, the person in his arms, who was supposed to be asleep, finally woke up.

Blearily opening her eyes, Felicity, upon seeing who was in front of her, almost thought she was still dreaming. "Langston...?"

She looked around.

Right, it's the house in Anglonia, and the streets here!

Hearing her call him Langston made Miles's heart melt.

A flood of guilt and longing surged within him.

He reached out, his dark eyes fixed on her pale face, "Felicity, come with me first. I'll explain everything." Calvin's brows knitted together, "Felicity, ignore him."

Felicity didn't immediately respond After a few seconds, she got down from Calvin's arms, her feet barely steady on the ground as if she was stepping on cotton. Then.

"Langston, you should go back."

"Felicity..."

"Go back to Eldorria City. Don't come looking for me."

With that, she turned to walk towards her place.

A smile crept onto Calvin's lips as he glanced at Miles and followed her.

"The thing with Esther, I can explain!

I was never with her, she came to

my office! I didn't know she

inally called you when

12.

showed up, I-"

"You don't have to explain. I don't want to hear it."

"I've always known, you never loved me as much because, in my eyes, love is supposed to be irrational."

And Miles, he was always so rational.

What to do, what not to do, including responsibilities and rules, he always kept them clear in his mind.

Felicity, weakened by illness, spoke

softly, "I've thought it over. I don't

blame you. We have such an age

gap, it's normal to have differences... Maybe when I'm thirty, I'll be as rational about everything as you are. But now, at twenty-three, I can't handle it."
