The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

“You can’t think this way! My daughter is a bright spark, a real beauty—you’ll snag a great husband, no doubt about it,” Serena chuckled, pausing for a moment with a twinkle in her eye. “Speaking of which… you know, your father’s colleague’s kid just got back from abroad. Caught a glimpse of his photo the other day, and boy, he’s a catch! Handsome and full of life. Wanna take a peek?”

Karen eyed her mother skeptically, “That’s your grand scheme, isn’t it, Mom? You’re setting me up on a blind date?”

Serena waved her hand dismissively, “No pressure, darling! It’s all up to you. If you’re not into it, forget it. But there’s no harm in looking, right? If there’s no spark, you just walk away. But if there is, why not give it a shot?”

“Handsome, you say?”

“Mhm.”

Karen pondered for a moment. “Got a picture?” she asked.

Serena sprang to her feet, “I sure do! I’ll grab it from your dad. Just take a quick look!”

Karen flashed an ‘OK’ sign. “Sure, let’s see it.”

She thought about how long it had been since her last date and shuddered at the thought of becoming an old maid. If there was a chance to meet someone decent, someone with a kind heart and good temperament, she was open to giving it a try.

It wasn’t like her friend Dorothy, who had been carrying a torch for Everett all these years. Dorothy wasn’t looking because she hadn’t let go.

But Karen was different. She wasn’t pining for anyone, nor was in love. She was just too lazy to mingle, plus babysitting and work kept her busy enough without throwing men into the mix.

Came to think of it, she had Jeffrey to thank for this sudden openness to dating. Before, Karen wasn’t sure what she wanted in a man, and she couldn’t say for certain even for now. But she knew one thing—she didn’t want anyone like Jeffrey!
