The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Chapter 1119



Dorothy couldn't help but wonder if there was something Everett wasn't telling her. Was someone threatening him, or was he facing some kind of impossible dilemma? "Just say it, I'm listening."

"I just think... You and Kenneth aren't right for each other."

Everett desperately wanted to pour his heart out to her, to take her in his arms and whisper over and over again that he loved her, and only her.

There had never been anyone else.

"That's it?"

"Yeah."

Dorothy looked at him, speechless for a few moments.

"Whether we're right for each other, that's for me to decide."

"Everett, I won't let you disrupt my life again. Never."

It seemed more like she was trying to convince herself than him.

At the hospital, Kenneth was anxiously sitting in his wheelchair, repeatedly asking Karen.

"Has Dorothy called yet? Did she say when she might be free?"

"Not yet, bro. Just wait a bit longer."

Karen reassured Kenneth that Dorothy had agreed to meet, and he had dressed up early in anticipation.

"Are you sure she agreed?"

"Yeah, trust me! Would I lie to you?" Karen glanced at her brother, sighing. "Bro, what do you plan to tell her?"

"I can't tell you. It's something I need to discuss with Dorothy alone."

Karen pouted. "Keeping secrets from me now? I might not help you next time!"

"Don't be mad. I just don't want to say anything until I get some sort of response." "Alright."

Kenneth adjusted his shirt. "How do I look? Do you think Dorothy will think I look old?" After all, he was several years older than Dorothy, unlike Everett, who was her age. "You look like you're in your early twenties."

Karen might have been trying to boost Kenneth's spirits, but he genuinely did look young. If it weren't for the time he had spent in the hospital, he could easily blend in at a college campus.

"That's good." Kenneth's smile briefly brightened before fading again. "Karen do you think... can I ever stand on my feet again? I'm afraid

Dorothy might not want a boyfriend who's disabled."

"You're overthinking it." Karen tried to reassure him. "If you're really concerned, let's follow Dr. Jeffrey Turner's advice and seek treatment abroad! He said your condition is treatable!" Jeffrey?

Kenneth forced a smile.

"Don't forget, Jeffrey's relationship

brother-in-law, and your husband, but he's known Everett longer Don't you think he's been a bit too@ager to help with my leg?"

"He's just trying to help."

"I think it's to get me to leave the country, so I stop seeing Dorothy."

Karen paused, considering this.

The thought had crossed her mind, but she didn't want to give up any chance of healing Kenneth's leg. If it didn't work, she'd confront Jeffrey herself.

"Would Jeffrey really do that?"

"Why wouldn't he?"

Karen thought for a moment, frowning. "But... Everett was the one who initiated the breakup! If he still cared about Dorothy, why end things? And if he's moved on, why involve Jeffrey?" "I think Everett is hiding something from all of us."

Suddenly, Karen remembered something Jeffrey had let slip previously.
