The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

"So, how's your lawsuit going? Any progress?" Karen asked, pausing her movements as she flipped a pancake.

"Yeah," Dorothy nodded, her voice steady. "The preliminary hearing is coming up." Karen's hand froze mid-flip. "Has Everett's mom been detained?" "No, but the trial can proceed without her. The court has already issued the summons." Karen's mouth hung open for a moment, struggling to find the words. "You've really come to this... Everett's mom is just vile!

If Bella had followed Maxton Sanchez's wishes back then, she wouldn't even exist, let alone all that followed! Without her, maybe Bella would have remarried, found happiness sooner, and escaped the shadow of that scumbag, not ending up dying alone from an overdose.

Her life was owed to her mother; it was she who had burdened Bella.
