The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

The dinner was supposed to be a cozy affair, just a casual meal to catch up and chat. But in the end, things took an unexpected turn, leaving everyone a tad uneasy.

Jeffrey barely touched his food before excusing himself with the ‘urgent business at the office’ line and made his exit.

Once the door had closed behind the last of the guests, Dorothy murmured, “I’m not holding a grudge against Jeffrey. If Karen really had a thing for him, my opinion wouldn’t matter. But she’s made it clear that she’s not into his playboy ways.”
