Dorothy let out a deep sigh before suddenly asking, "Do you think Everett and I are completely done for?"
Karen, caught off guard, stuttered, "Huh?"
"I mean, from your perspective, do you see Everett and me splitting up for good? Not in a 'never speak again till we're old and gray' kind of way, but... just not in a romantic or marital relationship anymore."
"Would he let that happen?" Karen instinctively countered. "Do you think Everett could stand that? I don't think so."
"You think so too, don't you?"
"Yeah." Karen paused for a moment before asking with a hint of confusion, "What's going on, exactly? Everett didn't break up with you, did he?"
Dorothy smirked, "No, he said he needed to think things over. I'm just wondering... if his final decision might be to end things for good."
"No way! He definitely won't do that."
Even Karen was certain of that.
Dorothy frowned, her thoughts a tangled mess.
"Stop overthinking it. I get it, everyone goes a little crazy when they're upset. Happens to me and Jeffrey all the time! But try to stay calm, and don't dwell on it too much! Everett will come around eventually, he always does, right?"
Dorothy remained silent.
"Look, even if, and that's a big if, you and Everett did break up for good, it's not the end of the world! My brother's still waiting in the wings for you."
Hearing this, Dorothy quickly said, "Please don't tell your brother anything about my troubles with Everett. Not a word!"
The confrontation she had with Everett was a deliberate test.
That didn't mean she was ready to drag Kenneth back into her drama.
After holding him back for so long, Dorothy couldn't bear the thought of involving Kenneth again.
"Don't worry, I won't mention it."
"Thanks."

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...
