"Ha, if you say I won't get it, well, guess what? I don't even care to understand!" Lane sneered, his voice dripping with disdain. "You know what I can't stand? Your holier-than-thou attitude! What, you think you're something special? Just another plaything left behind!"
Dorothy realized there was no saving him.
Maybe Lane hadn't turned bad; maybe he was rotten to the core from the get-go!
The murderous glint in his eyes was unmistakable.
Yet, Dorothy didn't move an inch, resolutely standing in front of Kenneth.
Behind her, Kenneth's voice was almost pleading, "Dorothy, please move!"
"No way! If I leave, he'll definitely kill you, Lane's lost it!"
"I don't care if I die... but you... you have to survive... for Abigail and Langston..."
Just as Dorothy was about to argue, Lane bellowed.
"Enough! Dorothy, you don't seriously think I'd spare Kenneth if I got rid of you, do you? There are only two outcomes today: either Kenneth dies, or... both of you do!"
"I'm begging you, Lane, Kenneth has nothing to do with this!"
"As I said, if you willingly be mine, let me have my way just once, maybe then I'd consider sparing him."
"..."
Lane kept advancing, giving Dorothy no time to think.
"Dorothy, don't!" Kenneth was desperately trying to break free from the ropes binding him, but it was futile.
Dorothy's lips quivered, and in the next second, she grabbed Lane's wrist again.
"Play nice, and I can make you happy! Give you a good time!"
She clenched her teeth, then suddenly raised her hand—
A slap echoed loudly across Lane's cheek!
Lane was furious, his hand shooting out to grasp Dorothy's neck.

The readers' comments on the novel: The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires
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....
How could Jeffrey throw the knife down at the scene of the crime with both their fingerprints on there?...
Again no update, so is this where it ends? Or post the whole book. Your dragging this out...
