The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1083
"Where were you then?"
"Yeah."
Though she really wished she hadn't been there!
If she hadn't seen Quincy being picked up, she might have been able to fool herself into thinking that Everett's feelings could change, maybe he'd snap out of it in a few days.
But with someone new in the picture...
"Everett, are you seriously going to be with Quincy?"
"I've got things to do, I'm busy."
"Don’t dodge my question! I just want to know, are you going to be with Quincy?" Dorothy wiped away a tear, trying hard to keep her emotions in check, "If you just need some space because of everything that’s going on with your mom and you’re unsure about us, I can wait! However long it takes! But if you’ve fallen for Quincy and you plan to be with her..."
"Dorothy, I told you, I'm busy. I don't have time for this."
The light in Dorothy's eyes dimmed.
She forced a smile, "Alright, go on with your busy schedule then."
"I—"
"Goodbye."
Dorothy hung up first.
She desperately wanted to fight for their relationship, to be with Everett, but if his decision was to leave her behind...
Then she couldn't be a burden to him.
Perhaps... this was for the best.
...
Back at the office, Everett stared at the disconnected call, taken aback.
Then he dialed the intercom, summoning Kevin.
"Mr. Lopez, did you need me?"
"Did Quincy leave?"
Kevin nodded, "Yeah! She even tried to fish for info about whether you've been in touch with Ms. Sanchez privately, claiming it's only natural for Mr. Lopez to keep in communication with Ms. Sanchez since there are ongoing projects at the company."
"That'll be all, you can go."
Everett gestured dismissively. Hearing Dorothy cry earlier had unsettled him.
He wished he could return to Bay Residence right now, to stop her tears and hold her, but for now...
He was so close.
Just one more step.
Quincy had made a proposition for an exchange, and he hadn't agreed.
She wouldn't let it go easily.
The next act had to be played out perfectly, to make it look like she had succeeded naturally.
Unable to sit still, worried about Dorothy, Everett was about to head to Bay Residence when Jeffrey's call came through.
"Everett, Dorothy just called Karen, and I don’t know what she said, but Karen rushed off immediately! Did something happen?"
Everett frowned, "She saw me invite Quincy to the CEO's office."

Why didn't Jeffrey call Everett from the office? Lock his door instruct security to not let anyone in and speak to Everett on the phone? Or send him a text giving him a quick summary of what's up and that he's on his way over. That way when he runs into Heather on his way out he informs her Everett already knows....
