The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1172
Dorothy was on the verge of saying something more when she noticed Everett raising an eyebrow, a clear sign that he was not going to let her off the hook today unless she agreed to use the Valleyton Plaza for their company.
"I'll use your commercial building, but have you thought about how you're going to explain this to Quincy?" she asked.
After all, in the eyes of the world—and Quincy—they were still in the breakup phase. There was no reconciliation in sight, and they had to keep up the act for a while longer.
"I've thought it through. Just say you were adamant about getting a share of my assets."
"Quincy would believe that?"
"That depends on your acting skills," Everett said with a smirk. "You did a great job pretending not to love me before, didn't you?"
She had even managed to fool him!
Dorothy couldn't help but roll her eyes.
How did he still enjoy bringing up the past? Those days were long gone.
"I just don't want to cause you any trouble."
"Then cause me trouble. Preferably, keep me busy solving them forever."
Dorothy couldn't help but smile. "Everett, you're quite the charmer."
She didn't even know how to respond to his sweetness anymore.
"You need some sugar in your life, or someone sweeter might sweep you off your feet," he shrugged. "Like that guy who always claims to be your future son-in-law, wasn't he the one who won over Kenneth with his sweet talk?"
It took Dorothy a moment to catch on.
She had a feeling this was something he would never let go of.
"Let's not dwell on that anymore. I promise, whenever you want, I'll take you to meet my mom, okay?"
"That's more like it."
...
Karen woke up to darkness, her arms and legs aching.

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....
