Chapter 1603

Long moments after the call ended, and even after Felicity emerged from the bathroom, Miles was still lost in thought. "What did my mom say?"

Drying her hair, she was wrapped in his navy bathrobe, which seemed almost too large for her, engulfing her entirely. "Aunt Karen was... asking why you called her, about looking for an obstetrician."

Silence fell heavily between them.

Felicity tensed at his words, a reaction Miles interpreted almost as a confirmation of his suspicions.

He approached her, his dark eyes filled with earnestness and hope, "Felicity... are you... are you pregnant?"

Silence again.

Miles gently took her wrist, asking softly, "Are you?"

For a few seconds, her mind went blank before she shook her head, "No."

It wasn't that she wasn't pregnant now; she believed she could never be pregnant.

"Really?" Disappointment flickered across Miles' face.

"Really, there's no pregnancy."

"Then why suddenly ask about an obstetrician?" He couldn't let it go, his heart clinging to a sliver of hope.

This time, Felicity didn't respond. She silently turned to get dressed and then faced him again.

"Come with me."

"Okay."
