Everett was used to waiting for Dorothy.
He had been doing it for years.
As the sunset started to fade, Dorothy looked up at him.
All those years and it seemed like time hadn't touched him. Look closely. He's still got that boyish charm.
"You should smile more. Stop looking so serious."
"All right," Everett nodded. He waited for Dorothy to get in first before he took the driver's seat.
He didn't bring his assistant today, which made Dorothy feel like they were just an ordinary couple going home after work, cooking dinner, and falling asleep in each other's arms.
However, Everett was anything but ordinary.
Dorothy wanted to ask about his mother, but she couldn't bring herself to.
She didn't want to break the peace of their little world.
Back at Bay Residence, Everett changed into something more comfortable and headed for the kitchen, followed by Dorothy.
"Let me cook tonight. You can go and take a break."
He always said he was not tired, but the weariness on his face said otherwise.
Dorothy knew how much work he had to do for the Lopez Corporation, yet he still managed to find time for her.
"I want to spend more time with you." Everett didn't leave but continued chopping vegetables.
Dorothy smiled and joined him, enjoying their quiet time together.
Their peace was short-lived, however, as the doorbell rang.
Everett paused, glancing at Dorothy, who hesitated.
"Should I hide? Is it your family?"

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...
