"What the heck is this all about? Didn't the bigwigs say they'd investigate this thoroughly?"
Karen was so furious that her eyes nearly popped out. She looked like she could eat someone alive.
In contrast to her rage, Dorothy didn't utter a word. She was simply staring hard at the screen.
He had promised to clear things up and vindicate her.
"Dorothy, don't freak me out. Say something!" Karen thought Dorothy was livid. She grabbed Dorothy's hand, only to find it trembling slightly.
She had never seen the usually composed Dorothy like this before.
"I'm okay." After a long pause, Dorothy forced a smile at Karen.
"Don’t be stubborn! We'll confront the company tomorrow. I'll go with you! Damn it, who do they think they are to decide the culprit was you?"
"Stay out of this." Dorothy said slowly, "You worked hard to get into the Lopez Corporation. Don't get dragged down because of me."
"What are you talking about? You think I'm scared?"
"Karen, I appreciate your concern. That's all I need from you."
Dorothy realized that the situation was no longer a simple feud between her and Heather. She had stirred up the chairman of the Lopez Corporation.
Even Everett might not be able to fix this.
Getting a job at the Lopez Corporation was a big deal for Karen. Dorothy didn't want Karen to get kicked out of the corporation because of her.
"Dorothy…"
"That's settled, then. You should go to work as usual; don't make a scene at the office, and don't argue with Mr. Percy."
"And what about you? Are you just gonna let them frame you?"
"No." Dorothy smiled.
She could put up with the usual office injustices, but this time, Heather wanted to kick her out of the industry for good and take her livelihood away. If she just sat back and did nothing, wouldn't she be a fool?

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...
