The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1089

"Let's head back, Karen!" Jeff urged as he tried to catch Karen's eye, signaling her to leave.

But Karen was seething, her anger blinding her to Jeff's pleading looks.

"I'm not leaving! I won't let anyone bully Dorothy!"

"She'll be fine, just come with me."

Out of options, Jeff walked over and, without further ado, scooped his wife into his arms.

"Jeff, put me down this instant!"

"We'll talk about it at home! Uh... Everett, Dorothy, you guys chat. We're heading out."

Everett wished for nothing more than their immediate disappearance.

Dorothy could only offer an awkward smile. "Karen, don't worry about me. I'll call you after we're done here."

"Jeff! Let me go, you—"

Somehow, Jeff managed to whisk Karen away.

Now, only Dorothy and Everett remained in the Bay Residence, facing each other in silence.

Once, they had longed for a moment alone. Now, they found themselves at a loss for words.

"You…"

"Everett, I can't give you the children."

Dorothy didn't want to hear any excuses. She had to stand up for her own rights.

Abigail and Langston had been without their mother for too long. If she were to leave them behind and move overseas, she couldn't call herself a mother!

"I can live without the children. Just don't leave the country."

"And what would I do in Eldorria City? Watch you and Quincy play house?" Dorothy's voice was cold as ice. "I don't understand why you insist on me staying! Everett, if you truly care for Quincy, then stop meddling in my affairs. I'll take the kids with me; they'll give you two the space you need."

Dorothy would never leave Abigail and Langston with Everett.
