The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1401

"It's like you think you can control who these kids will fall in love with in the future!"

Dorothy Sanchez did like Felicity Lopez and knew she must be a wonderful girl, but if her son happened to fall for someone else, she wouldn't stand in his way!

Otherwise, what would make her any different from Everett Lopez's mother?

"Ah, I just adore Langston's face! He's going to look just like Everett when he grows up!"

Jeffrey Turner raised an eyebrow at her, "So... you have a thing for Everett?"

Karen didn't hesitate for a second, her reply swift, "Of course! Who wouldn't like Mr. Lopez's looks?"

"And what, my face doesn't do it for you anymore? I'm pretty handsome too, you know!"

His face, Jeffrey's face, had always been praised, hadn't it?

"I never said you weren't handsome, but... compared to Mr. Lopez, you're just not quite there." Karen didn't care if he got jealous, she had to tell it like it was!

After all, it's not like Jeffrey could do anything about it.

"..."

"What, you disagree?"

Jeffrey smirked, "How could I? When it comes to looks, Everett's the only one I'd admit defeat to!"

...

Discussing the contract hadn't dampened Dorothy's spirits one bit.

There were so many joys in this world, she didn't want to let bad people or bad situations occupy her thoughts.

Returning to the Lopez Corporation's jointly developed resort, Dorothy felt a wave of nostalgia.

This place...

It wasn't just marked by her presence but Lane's as well.

If he hadn't been so obstinate, so controlled by jealousy, Lane could have had a bright future too.

"How can you call it wasted? It's because of that time I realized how irreplaceable you are! It taught me what love is, how to express my love."

Everett raised an eyebrow, "You've figured it out now?"

Dorothy shook her head, "Not completely, so Mr. Lopez, you'll have to keep teaching me! It's a long road ahead."

"Alright, I'll teach you forever," he patted her hand, "I'll use all the knowledge I have."

Dorothy looked up at him, her smile bright.

Facing the sunlight, her face was exceptionally clear and delicate, just like the first time he noticed her.

Still so, just a glance from her was enough to make his heart race uncontrollably.

"Let's have our wedding back in Eldorria City when we return."

The topic suddenly shifted, Dorothy paused, "Hm? Why bring this up all of a sudden?"

"Dorothy, you've got to give me an official status at some point, can't keep me hidden away as your husband forever."
