But before he could finish his sentence, Dorothy cut off Lane.
After such a long time, he still had that roguish charm mixed with undeniable handsomeness.
Truth be told, if only he hadn't been so obsessed with her, Lane could have had a pretty decent life! At least back in the day, his East Star Enterprises was doing quite well, not quite on the level of the Lopez Corporation, but it had made a name for itself in the banking world.
And now, seeing him again...
He had become a fugitive, wanted for murder.
Dorothy couldn't hide her dismay.
"Lane, do you regret killing Quincy?"
Caught off guard by the question, Lane paused for a moment, his thin lips twitching, "No regrets! Only by killing her could Everett be brought down!"
"Just because Everett bought out your company, you'd rather bear the weight of a life on your conscience, just to see him dead?" Dorothy's gaze fixed on him, compelling Lane to meet her eyes, "I don't get it, I really can't understand."
In the business world, being bought out by another company is nothing unusual!
If other companies can be acquired, why couldn't East Star Enterprises?
With the Lopez Corporation shining so bright, they could buy out any company they wanted.
Does that mean every CEO should go after Everett with a vengeance?
Lane took a sip of the coffee he had ordered earlier, "Do you really not know why Everett bought out East Star Enterprises? He was trying to force you back to the Lopez Corporation!"
"Yes, Everett did have that intention." Dorothy wasn’t naive; she understood the underlying reason why Everett went to such lengths to acquire East Star Enterprises. But still... "At the end of the day, it was all about me! You could have just handed me over, and all of this could have been avoided."

The readers' comments on the novel: The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires
Sometimes Karen can be such a drama queen and immature....
For some reason I am now feeling suspicious about Kevin's new girlfriend....
I really hope this Perdita person is not a new villain....
I too echoed the sentiments of pppplllleeeaaaassssseeeeee bring this drama to an end. I beg of you!...
Really please finish this book and upload the full story so it can end. It's been drugout for so long!...
The intimate scenes in this story or uncomfortable to read. They either come off as being forced, painful, or simply not enjoyable....
Okay I left a long while ago and came back. Looks like it's been updated but still not done lol. I'll maybe wait 6 months before coming back and it'll probably still be going on. It's like a soap opera instead of a novel...
Kenneth is confirming something I've been thinking about him for several hundred chapters ago and that is he is a future murder suicide perpetrator. And after reading chapter 1275 yeah it's just brought the thought back....
How could Jeffrey throw the knife down at the scene of the crime with both their fingerprints on there?...
Again no update, so is this where it ends? Or post the whole book. Your dragging this out...
