But the words were already out there, and it was Ms. Sanchez herself who had brought it up.

She had no choice but to bite the bullet and take people back to her place.

Meanwhile, driving the car, Miles sneakily glanced at Felicity.

He was secretly relieved that the apartment he had chosen for her was spacious enough, with plenty of rooms! Look, wasn't it proving useful now? Even though things had been pretty sour between them, Miles had never thought of taking back the apartment from her.

However, he couldn't help but imagine Felicity and Calvin getting cozy in that space...

It wasn't so much their tempting aroma that caught his attention, but rather, what was beside them: some fruits, medications, and a note. What it said was quite intriguing.

Taking the opportunity while her parents were chatting with her, Miles walked over and glanced at the note as if by accident. As expected, it was from Calvin.
