The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1071
Standing at the threshold of the CEO's office, every second felt like an eternity for Dorothy. Just moments ago, she had so much to say to Everett, but now... she found herself at a loss for words. The brief wait at his door was already unbearable for her. And Everett? He had waited for her for over a decade, aimlessly, without any promise or hope of her return. Now, the roles were reversed. How could she, who could barely stand to wait a few days or even a few minutes, question him about changing his password?
As Everett had pointed out, every time she decided to leave him behind, she did so with conviction, leaving wounds with her words. And now, why couldn't she accept it when the tables were turned?
Finally, the office door swung open. Dorothy's gaze immediately snapped to him—Everett had lost weight, and his stoic demeanor seemed even more pronounced. She couldn't help but wonder, was it because of her?
"Didn't you want to see me?" His voice was hoarse, likely from back-to-back meetings and a lack of rest.
"Yeah." Dorothy nodded.
"Come in." Everett turned and walked back into his office, leaving the door ajar. Dorothy took a deep breath and followed him inside. The office was a place she knew all too well, yet it felt like it had been ages since her last visit. After an unpleasant encounter the last time she was here, she hadn't come back.
"What do you need?" Everett settled back into his chair, leaning slightly backward. He rubbed his temples unconsciously, a sign of his fatigue.
Dorothy didn't take a seat but moved closer, "Headache? Let me help."
"No need." Everett dodged her offer.
"..."
An awkward silence ensued, making both of them uneasy. Everett broke the silence with a firm tone, "If you have something to say, say it. Then you should get going, it's time to clock out."
"I... I tried to enter your conference room earlier," Dorothy hesitated, then slowly continued, "and I noticed you changed the password."
"Am I not allowed to?" Everett countered.

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...
