The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Jeffrey was utterly shell-shocked.

His words came to an abrupt halt.

Langston was wide-eyed as he glanced between Mr. Turner and Aunt Karen.

Abigail, blissfully unaware, had been too preoccupied with her candy to notice anything amiss. But once the silence sunk in, she edged closer to Langston, “Brother, what’s wrong with Aunt Karen?”

Langston quickly clamped a hand over her mouth. “Uh… Mr. Turner, Aunt Karen, I’m going to check why mom hasn’t come in yet with Abigail!”

With that, he whisked Abigail off by the hand and darted out.

Watching Langston and Abigail leave, Karen snapped back to reality and stood up abruptly. “Enjoy your meal, I’m heading home.”

Before she could make it to the door, a firm grip caught her wrist.

Karen looked down at Jeffrey as she spoke with a harsh tone, “Don’t worry, there’s no chance of pregnancy. I’ve taken pills for prevention.”

“I wasn’t actually—”
