Chapter 1354
Vermont had suddenly adopted a distant demeanor toward Felicity. He still spoke to her politely, but she could not quite put herfinger on why it bothered her.novelbin
Tomorrow was the weekend. Normally, at this time, the two of them would be gaming through the night. Every Friday at 8 p.m.,they would show up in the living room with snacks. But today was different.
Felicity glanced at the clock. It was nearly 10 p.m., and Vermont was still nowhere in sight.
She had been thinking about Vermont's confession over the past few days. And, every time she was reminded of it, her heartwould flutter. She knew she had feelings for Vermont. But her thoughts were in turmoil, and she found it challenging to make adecision. Flat-out refusing seemed too hasty, yet accepting felt even more impulsive. She was struggling to find a better way tohandle the situation.
‘Would that stinky cucumber feel like I'm leading him on if | asked for some time to think it over?’ Felicity had to prepare herselffor the possibility of being with a man with physical limitations. ‘Ahhh, this is impossible,’ she sighed to herself.
Felicity then picked up her phone and messaged Stella. [ Hey, how did Keegan overcome his infertility?]
Stella had just finished a phone call with Stuart, the director of Motives for Murder, when she saw Felicity's text. She nearly spatout her mango juice and coughed several times.
Keegan grabbed a tissue to wipe her mouth and asked," What's got you so worked up?"Stella waved it off and replied to Felicity's message. [Why are you asking?]
[It's... Vermont. He's... infertile.]
Stella was shocked and excited to know the story. [What?! Tell me more!]
Felicity hesitated before she typed, [Not before you tell me how Keegan treated his condition.]
Stella wanted to tell Felicity that Keegan did not actually have an infertility problem, but she realized that her best friend might nottell her more about Vermont's situation if she knew that they did not go for treatment.
Wanting to be let in on the gossip, Stella replied, [We consulted an experienced alternative medicine practitioner, and heprescribed Keegan some remedies. The results were miraculous after a period of consistent use.]
Felicity paused and considered the route of alternative medicine. She had heard of its effectiveness before when her uncle hadsuffered from severe back pain. He tried various treatments and was even advised to undergo surgery. Because of his fear ofsurgeries, his friend recommended him to go to an alternative medicine center. After several sessions, his pain miraculouslyvanished and had not returned in years.
Hence, Felicity was intrigued when Stella mentioned alternative medicine.
[What was the prescription? Can you share it with me? I'd like to get it for Vermont.]
[I think everyone's situation is different, so the prescription would vary. Tell me more about his symptoms, and I'll ask the doctorfor you.]
[He... can't maintain an erection. Even watching porn doesn't help. Plus, he doesn't seem interested in that.] Felicity replied.
Just as Felicity was about to confide in Stella about the situation with Vermont, she heard the door creak open. She quickly sether phone down and rushed over. Despite the awkwardness, she wanted to have a conversation with Vermont about possiblygiving her more time.
With determination, Felicity made her way to the hallway. That was when she saw Vermont standing there with an exceptionallyattractive woman by his side.
