The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Jeffrey used to think Everett was a block of stone. He seemed like he was as hard as nails, resembling a monk who detached himself from worldly desires. He thought he was uninterested in any kind of woman, be it a mature beauty, a cute girl, or a model.

But now Jeffrey realized that he was not that stubborn. It just depended on the person.

Even he had his own ways of picking up women.

He even insisted on tagging along when Dorothy was going to meet a manager. The big shot CEO of the Lopez Corporation actually insisted on escorting her?! He said if anyone found out, they could just say that they happened to be discussing work in this cafe.

What a joke!

“Do you have anything important to do?” Everett never responded to such banter. He was always focused on work. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

Jeffrey huffed a few times and deliberately went over to disturb him. “Yes. I came to ask you why you suppressed the workplace harassment issue with the manager of SinoSuccess Enterprises. This scandal could have been used as leverage to make the CEO of SinoSuccess Enterprises obediently sign the contract.”

Everett’s pen paused in his hand, and he frowned.

“Then Dorothy would be drowned in spit.”

This was about a girl’s reputation. Although he hadn’t lived at the bottom, with a little thought, he could foresee that if this matter got out, the employees of the Prosperity Consortium and SinoSuccess

Enterprises would definitely gossip about it: The so-called truth would be distorted, and the focus would inevitably fall on Dorothy being harassed.

Could Dorothy clarify this issue herself?

Jeffrey obviously hadn’t thought of this before and couldn’t help but secretly admire Everett’s thorough thinking.

“But why didn’t you tell her about this? She won’t know if you silently do all this.”

“I don’t need her to know.”

“Then when will she ever fall for you?”

Everett curled his lips and placed his hands, which were on his forehead, down onto his desk.

“You don’t understand her.”

Dealing with Dorothy was akin to boiling a frog in warm water.

If his expression of love was too intense, it wouldn’t move her, it would only make her want to escape. She had been through a lot in her past and became too defensive. It was not easy to get into her heart.

But anyway, the marriage license was already in his hands.

The night he received her mistaken WhatsApp message and knocked on her door, he had already decided not to let her go.

In the evening, Dorothy handed over her work to another assistant and left the company.

Because it was late, she missed the last bus to the hospital.

Gritting her teeth, she raised her hand to hail a taxi, but Everett’s car drove straight to her side and slowly stopped.

“Get in.”

The car window was lowered, revealing Everett’s exquisite side profile.

Dorothy quickly waved her hand. “I can’t go with you now. I have to go to the hospital to see my mom today.”

Noticing that she seemed in a hurry to dismiss him, Everett sighed helplessly. “I’ll take you to the hospital.”

Dorothy fell silent.

“Are you hesitating because you want the whole company to notice us?”

Hearing this, Dorothy hurriedly opened the car door and got in.

Everett didn’t bring his assistant today; he was driving himself. In such a confined space, Dorothy felt a bit uncomfortable with just the two of them alone.

She glanced at the flowers and gifts in the back seat and blurted out an awkward topic that made both of them feel more awkward. “Mr Lopez… are you going on a date?”

“With who?”

“With your true love, of course.” She thought to herself but was afraid to say it.

“Also, didn’t I tell you not to call me Mr. Lopez in private?”

Dorothy shrank her neck to hide her emotions. “It’s just to show my respect to you”

“Call me Everett He reminded her again.

Just as Dorothy was about to speak, she suddenly remembered that his true love, Heather, also called him Everett

No wonder he insisted on changing the way she spoke to him.

Did Everett love Heather that much?

So much so that even if he knew he was using a substitute, he still treated her gently.
