"No matter who comes around, I'm always gonna be Abigail and Langston's dad."
"..."
He was right, and Dorothy knew it. There was no coming back from that statement.
"You haven't answered my question, got any plans tonight?" Everett seemed almost too eager to find out, as if it was his mission.
He was curious.
Well, she didn't feel like satisfying his curiosity!
"That's my own business as a single woman," she retorted, ready to walk away, but Everett suddenly grabbed her wrist, holding it tight.
"You got a date?"
"Everett, let go!"
His hand was slightly damp and cool from washing the dishes, an unexpected reminder of their once shared domestic life. Dorothy had intended to set clear boundaries, to stop herself from harboring any more illusions. Yet, she hadn't anticipated such a strong reaction from him.
"Who are you seeing? Karen?"
"Do I only have Karen as a friend?" Dorothy snapped back, even though she knew the remark lacked bite. After all, Karen really was her only female friend. "But I have guy friends too!"
At this, Everett's expression visibly darkened.
"Guy friends? Kenneth?"
"He's not the only one."
"Dorothy!" Everett's tone cooled several degrees. "You better be careful with your words."
Dorothy tried to shake off his grip, growing more frustrated when she couldn't. Her temper flared.
"Everett, you should really check yourself! We're over, and the only reason I let you in today was for the kids! You've had your dinner, now it's time for you to leave and stop meddling in my personal life!"

The readers' comments on the novel: The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires
Can you please convey this to the person who owns this website? Update “find me in your labyrinth” novel please...author is MIA since 12/4......
I don't agree with not letting him in. That just seems cruel and besides wasn't the whole point of getting pregnant again was for him to experience and travel the journey of pregnancy with her?...
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....
