The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1326
Dorothy lifted her eyes, their movement stiff and awkward. "Everett, I... I don't know how to express what I'm feeling right now..."
She had dreamed of growing old with Everett, of being there for their son and daughter forever.
But—
She couldn't bear the thought of her happiness being built on someone else's suffering.
"I understand," Everett said, his voice soft and comforting as if he were soothing his daughter. He gently rubbed her back. "What's done is done. We can't go back, even if we wish we could."
If he could turn back time, he would never have allowed Quincy the chance to poison, and then Kenneth would still be alive.
But he was only human, not a deity.
He didn't have that power.
"Dorothy, Kenneth said his last wish was for you to take the antidote, to recover, and to live well," Everett continued.
Silence.
"Don't let him have died in vain, okay?"
It took a long, long time before Dorothy, held in his embrace, finally nodded slowly.
...
The day of Kenneth's funeral dawned overcast and gray, as if it might rain.
Dressed in black, Dorothy went directly from the hospital to the funeral home.
For the sake of privacy and peace, there was only one service scheduled there that day.
Only Kenneth's family, friends, and former colleagues were allowed inside.
"Dorothy."
Karen, who herself needed support to stand, made her way over to Dorothy upon seeing her.
In just a few days, Dorothy had become almost gaunt, her cheeks hollow, her voice weak.

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...
