The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

In the dim light of the downtown bar, Wesley watched as Jeffrey stormed back in, almost as if he'd done a full 180. Wesley couldn't help but smirk, thinking maybe Jeffrey had seen reason after all. "Mr. Turner? Had a change of heart, did you? Realized I was right all along?"

"Right my ass!"

"Don't play dumb with me!"

Jeffrey's grip on Wesley's collar was suffocating, almost to the point of strangulation.
