The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1041
People, in the grand scheme of things, are just too insignificant.
There are so many battles we simply can't win...
"What's wrong with him?" Karen sniffled, looking up with teary eyes. "Did he have a fallout with Dorothy?"
Jeffrey pursed his lips. "I don't know. You heard about Everett's mom passing away, right? That's what I meant."
"Oh." Karen made a face. "She got what she deserved! If Dorothy hadn't been so helpless, given the whole manslaughter thing, she'd have been behind bars ages ago!"
...
Jeffrey was caught in the middle, unsure if he should agree with his wife. It made sense, but...
That was still Everett's mom, the woman he'd always called Aunt Amanda. Jeffrey had always known she had her issues, frequenting hospitals, but she was a kind soul, always greeting him warmly. He never imagined Amanda could be the one responsible for Dorothy's mom's death.
...
Dorothy had been sitting outside for a while. Before going in, she called Karen to check on Kenneth's situation. Even though it wasn't her place to be there, she still cared deeply.
Karen said there was no news yet, but she had managed to drive Eleanor away.
Dorothy sighed. Given her situation, it wasn't her place to comment, so she chose to remain silent.
Hanging up, she stepped into the Bay Residence. The sounds of Abigail and Langston playing immediately reached her ears, the warmth of home settling her nerves. After all, it was just these past few days that had Everett upset, which was understandable.
Could he really end things over this?
Dorothy couldn't see Everett falling for Quincy. Even if Quincy made her move, it wouldn't matter.
Why was she bothering with jealousy? Could Quincy be by Everett's side at a time like this?
The Caldwell and the Lopez families were close, and Jonathan even wanted Quincy as his daughter-in-law. It was only natural for the Caldwells to be around after Amanda's death.

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...
