The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Silence hung on the line for an eternity from Levi’s end.

Just as Karen was about to speak up, a clatter echoed through the receiver like a tumbler taking a dive.

“Wait, wait, just give me a sec. I’ve got to wipe down the table!”

Karen gasped.

Moments later, Levi panted back into the conversation, “So, what are you in the mood for? I’ll swing by and pick you up!”

Karen couldn’t help but chuckle, “Here I thought you didn’t want to treat me. “

“No, it’s not that! I just… I didn’t expect you to bring this up…”

Truth be told, he’d been on the verge of asking her out multiple times. But each time, the words just wouldn’t come out.

If Karen hadn’t brought it up, he’d probably still be hemming and hawing.

“Levi, you better brace yourself. I’m not exactly a knockout,” Karen quipped. Their last attempt at a blind date fell through, and Levi had been swamped at work since then. They’d connected on WhatsApp, sure, but never broached the subject of meeting up.

Karen wasn’t keen on rushing things, but with her life thrown into disarray by Jeffrey’s meddling, she felt it was high time to get back on track—for her peace of mind and her parents’ sake.
