He had said all there was to say.
But she still wanted to break up...
"Sigh! You really can't blFelicity for being mad at you. You guys broke up, so why worry about obligations now!"
Aurora frowned as she finished speaking, casting a sidelong glance at Craig standing next to her, "See? This is what happens when
you meet up with an ex!"
"..." He snorted, thankfully not wearing his usual faded tee this time, but instead a crisp white shirt, "l don't have an ex, who would
| meet?"
Now, it was Aurora who was at a loss for words.
After a moment, she turned around and glared at her own brother.
"Serves you right!"
Now she was stuck, not even sure how to explain this mess to Felicity! After all, if she were in Felicity's shoes, she might be even
more livid!
Aurora also believed that exes should be treated as though they no longer existed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWorried about leaving her brother alone at his place, Aurora had Craig drive him over to her apartment.
After settling him into the guest room, it was already late into the night.
Craig walked to the foyer, bending down to change his shoes.
"You're leaving?"
"Yeah."
Aurora, feeling helpless, blocked his way, "My brother's here,pletely wasted. What if something happens? Even if he just wants
to go to the bathroom, | can't..."
Clearly, Craig hadn't thought of that.
He just didn't want to spend the night under the sroof as Aurora, fearing he might develop inappropriate feelings.
After a brief pause, Craig spoke up, "Then I'll sleep on the couch."
"Okay."
Just as Aurora was about to fetch a blanket from the coat closet, a loud crash cfrom the guest room—
She and Craig immediately rushed over, only to find Miles collapsed on the floor, a gash on his head from hitting the corner of a
dresser!
Aurora was terrified.
"Quick, call 911! We need to get him to the hospital!"
"Don't panic, I'm on it." Craig immediately got up to find his phone.
Aurora, frantic, pressed her hands against the wound, blood seeping through her fingers...
It looked horrifying.
"Bro, don't scare me, are you awake? Do you know who | am?"
It seemed the knock had really done a number on Miles, who only managed a hoarse, "I'm not dead."
"You! Really."
She didn't even know what to say!
Glancing down at the blood on her hands, Aurora suddenly had an idea.
She stood up, capturing the vivid red on her screen, and sent it directly to Felicity.
(Felicity,e to the hospital! My brother, he...[]
Aurora deliberately left the message hanging.
This was all she could do for her brother, hoping Felicity woulde if she saw the message.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAnd hopefully, seeing Miles like this would soften her heart, giving him another chance.
Before long, the ambulance arrived.
Craig helped him into the vehicle, his white shirt now stained with blood.
Aurora checked her phone repeatedly, but no reply came!
It wasn't surprising, it was the middle of the night, after all. Who wouldn't be asleep?
Just as she was about to put her phone away, it suddenly rang—
"How's Langston? Which hospital?"
"Head to Heal-Unity Hospital, we're on our way!"
"Okay, | got it, I'm heading there now." Felicity's voice sounded groggy, as if she'd just woken up.
Aurora clenched her fist, determined to support her brother.
"Felicity, please don't break up with my brother! Without you, who knows what foolish thing he might do next."
Foolish thing?
Felicity was utterly confused.
"He... he didn't try to...?"
