The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Dorothy hung up the phone, her mind whirling as she tried to come to grips with the reality of the situation.

Karen and Jeffrey – the thought of them together was, well, unexpected.

Everett rose from his seat and sauntered over to her. With an ease that spoke of years of intimacy, he wrapped her in a comforting embrace. “Don’t worry, Jeffrey isn’t just fooling around.”

Dorothy sighed, her voice tinged with concern, “It’s just that Karen has done so much for me over the years. I want to repay her, but she doesn’t need money or love. I just don’t know where to start. I feel guilty… like all I can do is protect her from getting hurt.”

“If Jeffrey dares to mistreat Karen, he’ll have me to answer to,” Everett said with a grin. “Abigail and Langston aren’t just your children. They’re mine too. So we owe the debts together.”

Dorothy looked up at him, “Will Jeffrey treat Karen right?”

“Jeffrey chased Karen with all his might. As for what happens next… Dorothy, I can’t make guarantees.”

No one could predict the future, not even someone like Everett.

“I’m not expecting them to go the distance, get married, have kids, and live happily ever after. I just hope that if they do part ways, it’s not because Jeffrey broke her heart,” Dorothy mused.

“I’d never let that slide,” Everett assured her.
