In the wee hours, Dorothy woke up. The man beside her was still deep in sleep, his strong arm wrapped around her completely. His steady breathing tickled her neck.
Her last bit of drunkenness had completely faded away due to the aching and numbness between her legs, and so had her reason.
What the hell had she done?
She had actually slept with her boss?!
Dorothy's breath hitched. She carefully extricated herself from his arms and hurriedly got out of bed, dressed up, packed her stuff, and bolted from room 1501, heading for the hotel reception to book another room.
It was when she was paying with her phone that she realized that it wasn't Karen's contact she had asked for last night.
That was clearly Everett's contact.
Years ago, at a junior high school reunion, the class monitor created a WhatsApp group, and everyone added each other as friends.
Dorothy clearly remembered that it was Everett who had added her first, but he never said anything after that, so she just renamed him.
And now this had happened.
She sat in her newly booked room for a while to calm down. Then she took out her phone, left the junior high school group, changed her online name from Dorothy to Lily, and replaced her profile picture with a photo of a girl she found online.
That way, he wouldn't know who she was.
After all, room 1501 was booked by the company, and nothing could be traced.
After all the maneuvering, she finally pulled up the quilt and went to sleep.
The alarm rang early the next morning. Today, Dorothy had to accompany her manager, Percy, to Harmony Ventures to discuss the issue of additional funding.

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...
