"Why do you have to feel crappy? What do you expectto do about it?"

It's not like she could... help him relieve his stress, right?

After all, she was now his ex-girlfriend.

"It's not that. I'm just feeling a bit dizzy," Miles confessed, not lying about his condition. He did feel unsteady, though he was fine

just moments ago...

Perhaps the quick shower he took to cool off was a bad idea. His brain must have been deprived of oxygen, not to mention his

injury.

"Oh." Felicity's cheeks flushed with a hint of embarrassment as she stooped to support him. "You better get back to bed. I'll help

you."

After all, changing his dressing while he was lying down wasn't an issue.

Miles was tall, making it quite a challenge to assist him.

The few steps from the bedroom door to the bed felt like a marathon, and she was so exhausted she could feel her stomach

grumbling with hunger!

"Should we call your family doctor to check on you?" she asked.

"No need."

"Just lie down then, I'll change your dressing."

He closed his eyes and nodded, "Mhm."

Felicity stood up and fetched the medicine and bandages as he had instructed.

She wasn't exactly skilled at this delicate task, but with no one else around, she had no choice but to manage.

As she carefully unwrapped the bandages, the sight of his wound made her cringe. It wasn't long enough to need stitches but was

still quite severe. Just looking at it, she could almost feel the pain he must have gone through!

Gently dabbing at the wound with iodine, she muttered unconsciously, "All this over a breakup? Getting drunk and landing yourself

in the hospital... How embarrassing."

"A breakup? Just like that?" Miles opened his eyes, fixing her with a steady gaze. "Just like that?"

"Well, what else? Sure, we've known each other for a long time, but we weren't together for that long. Plus..."

Plus, it was she who had been harboring a secret crush, not him!

If anyone should be suffering, it was supposed to be her!

Now, with Miles getting drunk and ending up in the hospital, it almost made her seem like the heartless one...

"You think | didn't care, didn't love you enough, is that it?" he said with a wry smile. "Felicity, | admit I'm old-fashioned, but | did

care."

If he hadn't loved her, hadn't truly wanted to marry her, Miles would never have put aside his work to focus solely on wedding

preparations.

When had he ever spent a day away from hisputer?

Lately, he had been neglecting hispany for several days straight, all to spare her the burden of preparations alone.

Maybe he wasn't as adept as Calvin at making her happy, and yes, he might have taken her for granted over Esther's issue, but to

Miles, Felicity was the one he had chosen, his future wife.

So, how could it be just a breakup?

"Oh." Felicity didn't know what to say, so she just replied with a single word.

Suddenly.

He grabbed her wrist.

Caught off guard, the cotton swab she was using to apply medication accidentally poked his wound!

"Are you crazy! I'm trying to help you here, don't you feel the pain?"

Seeing the blood seep out again, Felicity hurriedly looked for a bandage to stop the bleeding.

But with her wrist still in his grip, she was immobilized.

"Let go, | need to get you—"

"Felicity, | was thinking, what if | just kept holding onto you like this? Wouldn't you stay by my side then?"

His words stunned Felicity, almost making her believe he was delirious from a fever.

That didn't sound like Miles at all.

After a brief pause, she raised an eyebrow and asked, "Would you really do that?"

"lI wouldn't... That would be disrespecting your wishes."

Yeah.

That sounded more like him.
