Chapter 1660
Quick as a flash, Felicity received a screenshot of the flight details.
She was so focused on the time that she completely overlooked the fine print at the bottom.
Passengers: 30
She texted back Ms. Sanchez, Got it! I'll be there on time! See you tomorrow then.
She had barely put her phone down when a nagging feeling of unease crept up on her.
This must be some big trouble at the Lopez Corporation's branch, right? Why else would Mr. Lopez and Ms. Sanchez rush over at such a crucial time?
And Abigail was in her third trimester, ready to give birth any moment!
Logically, the two of them should be glued to Eldorria City, not leaving Abigail's side.
"I need to talk to my mom about this."
After all, Felicity grew up practically under Ms. Sanchez's watchful eye, despite her and Langston's relationship coming to an end. The affection for her elders remained strong. She was deeply concerned for the Lopez family.
Dialing her mom, she was greeted by a groggy voice, seemingly just woken up.
"Felicity? What's wrong, is your condition getting worse?"
"No." Felicity explained the situation with Ms. Sanchez, only to be met with more confusion on the other end.
"I haven't heard anything about the Lopez Corporation being in trouble! And the Anglonia branch isn't even central to the group. Why would they need both board members to go there?"noveldrama
To put it bluntly, even if the branch was closing down, it wouldn't require their immediate presence!
"...That's why I'm asking." Felicity pondered for a moment before cautiously asking, "Mom, you didn't tell Ms. Sanchez about my condition, did you?"
After so much time, all she could do was move forward and turn the page.
"Absolutely not!" Karen hurriedly assured. "You made it clear you didn't want them to know about your illness, and I respect your wishes!"
"Good." Felicity sighed in relief. "Maybe Ms. Sanchez and Mr. Lopez just want a break, to get away for a bit. I'm free anyway, so I can hang out with them for a few days." "How's your flu? All better?"
"Almost gone! Don't worry, mom."
After hanging up, she made sure to buy a box of Ibuprofen slow-release capsules, just in case.
If she couldn't hold up, popping a couple could give her a temporary boost.
Miles was tricked onto the plane.

At the security checkpoint, Everett suddenly pulled his son along!
"Hey? Dad, I-"
"Your mom said you're coming too."
Miles was stunned, glancing between his parents, "Um? Mom?"
Dorothy nodded, handing him a ticket, "Just come with us."
"Wait, where are we going? I've got things to handle at the office!"
He had left a meeting halfway through!
Miles frowned as he inspected the ticket.

Instinctively, his heart sank, and he.

"Yeah, you could say that."
