The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Seeing Everett's mood hadn't improved, she tried to reassure him again, "Quincy has been living abroad for so long, hardly ever comes home. At most, she's only in touch with the Caldwells here. Who could she possibly have upset enough to wish her harm? The person who dislikes her the most is you, and even you haven't done anything to her. So, she must be safe."

That was the crux of why Dorothy wasn't worried.

The thought of Quincy being in any danger never crossed her mind.

"But still, I can't shake this uneasy feeling."

"Everett, if you keep worrying about Quincy, I might start getting jealous!" Dorothy teased, pouting. "We're back at Bay Residence, and you're still hung up on another woman. Don't you think that's a bit much?" "...Alright, I'll stop thinking about it."

With that, Everett scooped Dorothy up in his arms and carried her back to their bedroom.

Then, bending down, he kissed her forehead, "I'll put the kids to bed, then I'll come back and keep you company."

"Okay!"

Watching Everett walk away, Dorothy's smile never faded.

She was truly content and satisfied with their life right now. If it could always be like this, she thought, it would indeed be the perfect life!

While waiting for Everett, Dorothy took a shower and then got back into bed, thinking of checking if Kevin had texted her.
