Felicity had made up her mind.

The reason she could sit here so calmly, discussing this with him, was simply...

Miles hadn't really done anything wrong.

Including visiting Esther at the hospital, it was a natural human reaction, not something blameworthy.

It was just who Miles was: a by-the-book guy who always insisted on doing the right thing, taking responsibility.

Just like with his daily work, if the code was supposed to be one way, then that was the only way it could be; mistakes or substitutions were unacceptable.

And she, she had always cherished her freedom.

Perhaps because she was still young, she craved love and romance over marching straight into marriage, settling down to domestic life.

If it were about suitability, she wasn't even as good a match for him as Esther was.

"Felicity, we're just one step away from getting married. Do you really want to break up over this?" Miles tried to stay as calm as possible, hoping to communicate effectively, maybe... she was just momentarily upset, "I swear to you, there's nothing between Esther and me! This visit to the hospital, it was mainly because I felt guilty."
