The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

“Boyfriend?”

Jeffrey’s echo of her words seemed to roll off his tongue with a mix of amusement and disbelief before he let out a contemptuous chuckle. “Do you ever listen to a word I say?” he quipped.

“What are you talking about?” Karen blurted out.

He always talked so much nonsense, so how was she supposed to remember it all?

“Another round, huh? Now that you’ve got yourself a boyfriend, is that still on the table?” Jeffrey’s words were deliberate. His eyebrows also arched mockingly as he talked.

“Of course it’s not on the table! I thought I made myself crystal clear back at the diner, Jeffrey. If you don’t have the guts to put a ring on it, you can forget about another night in my bed!”

She despised how Jeffrey always reduced everything to just that one thing.

Without a word, Jeffrey crushed his cigarette under his shoe, his gaze fixed on the ground.

“I’ve got assets that can’t be transferred, plus a few properties my folks left in my name. How about I give you half of what’s left? How’s that sound?” He looked up at her, his face intermittently illuminated by the neon glow of the diner’s sign, casting shadows across his expression.
