The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1197

If it wasn't for the fear of tipping off Dorothy, he'd have fired Mr. Percy on the spot.

"He insisted you go," Everett whispered, knowing all too well that this wasn't something she'd willingly do.

With Dorothy's looks and charm, if she'd opted for that path, the Prosperity Consortium would've lost its grip on her long ago!

"But I went, didn't I?" Dorothy turned to face him, her voice a mixture of resignation and defiance. "For money, to survive, I had to go! Maybe after a few times, it won't feel so bad, and I'll get used to it."

Isn't that just the way of the world?

Which girl fresh out of college, stepping into the real world, wants to engage in unsavory activities? Life just bends you over sometimes.

You have to bow your head.

"..."

Dorothy reached out, her hand finding solace in his.

"So, you saved me! From start to finish, it was only because of you that I have all this."

"Dorothy..."

"Shh." She raised a hand to her lips in a gesture for silence. "In my eyes, no one is better than you. So, my sun, can you keep burning brightly and stop consuming yourself?"

Everett couldn't help but smile at her metaphor.

"The sun? Admitting you can't live without me now?"

"I've been unable to live without you for a long time."

It wasn't a new realization.

...

It had been two days since Karen found out she was pregnant.

Two whole days!

Karen felt if she didn't make a decision soon, she'd go mad from the indecision.
