The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Chapter 1282



"...I can't help but feel guilty."

Dorothy was getting better, but human nature, formed over so many years, isn't so easily cast aside.

Watching Everett cause such a ruckus, risking the company's reputation for this antidote, weighed heavily on her.

"Dorothy, stop worrying and just stay with me."

He wanted her, and nothing else.

"Okay."

In a moment of passion, Everett leaned down and kissed her tenderly.

Dorothy wrapped her arms around his waist, tilting her head back to meet his intense kiss.

Right in the midst of their embrace...

The hospital room door suddenly swung open!

"I thought I'd drop by to see them today, had to dress up in disguise and all-ugh!" Jeffrey finished speaking, he and Karen froze in place.

It wasn't anything too risqué, but still, stumbling upon such an intimate moment was rare.

"Cough, I didn't see anything, carry on, carry on!"

Karen was the first to recover, pulling Jeffrey to leave.

Dorothy, face flushed, pushed Everett away, "Hey, you guys don't have to leave!"

If they just turned around and left, it would seem as though she and Everett were about to do something scandalous under broad daylight...

"It's fine, we're all friends here, no harm in seeing!" Jeffrey was surprisingly chill about it, pulling his wife in and chuckling, "Come on, we've all been there, right?"

Everett knew what his friend was like. His handsome face remained calm as he glanced over, as if he wasn't the protagonist of that deeply passionate kiss moments ago. "Something up?"

"Just missed you, man," Jeffrey said

with a grin, pulling up a chair and sitting down. Even Karen trying to keep him in check couldn't hide his laid-back demeanor, "Also, thought I'd update you on Lane's movements."

Everett didn't move away from Dorothy, his slender fingers playing with a strand of her hair, "You didn't get too close, did you?"

"Nope! I just drew a circle around

him. As long as he stayed inside, my

guys wouldn't get closer. Didn't

wanna spook him, you know?" Jeffreyraised an eyebrow, quite pleased with himself, "Am I smart or what? Come on, praise me.

Even Karen couldn't help but glare at him.

The media outside thought the room was a scene of frantic medical intervention, but inside, the atmosphere was entirely different.NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

"Since the incident, Lane's just been

pacing around the area, even went back to where he offed Quincy All tracked through his location, didn't send anyone to follow."

"Right, don't spook him."

The climax of their plan was about to unfold, and they couldn't afford any mistakes.

While the men talked, Dorothy pulled Karen aside.

"Are you sure you should be out and about? What did the doctor say?"

"Should I just stay cooped up at home every day? Don't worry, it's fine! The doctor said it's good for me to get out, get some fresh air."

Dorothy frowned slightly, "But this is a hospital! The doctor meant for you to walk in the park, not in a place crawling with germs."

"Don't worry! After everything I've been through unscathed, this baby is meant to be mine."

Karen smiled and raised an eyebrow, "By the way, about Kenneth—"

It slipped out before she could stop herself.

Luckily, she caught herself midway.

"Kenneth? What about him?"
