The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1389

"Dorothy nodded, giving Felicity Miller's hand a gentle pat, “Totally, but Felicity's got you beat in the looks department, you’re not nearly as fair-skinned!”

“Gotta give you that! That’s all my wife’s doing.”

Jeffrey chuckled, turning to wrap his arm around Karen, who shoved him away without missing a beat.

“Humph, I just hope our next one takes after me! At least let my efforts count for something!”

“I did my part too, honey!”

Dorothy watched them bicker, with little Felicity Miller cuddled in her lap, not crying or even showing any sign of disturbance, as if she was used to their antics.

“Looks like she’s really gotten used to it.”

Everett’s gaze landed on Dorothy’s face, noticing a special softness in her smile as she held the child, captivating him.

“Everett, remember when Karen asked about setting up a future marriage pact for the kids, what do you think?”

“Hmm? Jeffrey would agree to that?”

“Ha, no way, so we gotta keep it our little secret.” Dorothy, still holding Felicity Miller, nodded towards her son absorbed in his laptop, “Felicity, that’s your brother over there! You’ll have a big brother to protect you.”

Felicity Miller, who had been unresponsive until then, actually looked in the direction Dorothy pointed and slowly lifted her hand as if reaching out.

“See, Felicity seems to really like her brother!”

Everett glanced at his son, shaking his head with a wry smile, “I think Langston would rather marry a computer.”

His obsession was clear!

Everett had his own tech phases, but never to this extent.

“He just doesn’t get it yet. Wait till he hits puberty, it’ll change.” Dorothy assured him. “Did you ever fancy any girls before meeting me?”

“…Well, yes.”

“See, Langston just hasn’t reached that point yet.” Dorothy softly stroked Felicity Miller’s hair, “But no matter what kind of girl Langston brings home in the future, I’ll approve because I trust my son’s judgment!”

Everett took Dorothy’s hand, “You up for it?”

“Yeah, I’m feeling better, let’s all go.”

It wouldn’t do to travel all the way to Everglow City and just stay in the hotel.

The seven of them packed into a van, setting off for the night market. On the way, Karen joked, “Once the new baby arrives, we’ll need a bigger car!”

The resort’s popularity had brought more life to the area, bustling more than ever.

Everett stayed close by Dorothy’s side, vigilant against the bustling crowd.

Suddenly!

Someone from behind called out to them.

“Mr. Lopez?”
