"I... I've lost everything... everything..."
As Dorothy finished uttering these sad words, she started to fall backward, losing consciousness.
Thankfully, Kenneth had been watching out for her. He outstretched his hand at her back just in time to keep her from falling.
Without wasting a moment, he scooped her up in his arms and sprinted towards the nurse's station. "Doctor! Where’s the doctor?! Someone's fainted here!"
...
Everett couldn't find his phone, which immediately gave him an uneasy feeling.
He was about to leave the room when he saw his father standing at the door, accompanied by Amanda's primary physician, who had taken care of her when she was abroad.
“Where are you off to? Your mother is hanging by a thread, and you want to leave?”
“I need to find my phone.” Everett replied while frowning slightly.
“Your phone?! Can’t whatever it is wait until your mother is stable?!” Jonathan stood firm and blocked the doorway with his imposing figure.
The doctor standing beside him chimed in. “Indeed, Mr. Lopez, your mother’s condition is critical. She could wake up at any moment, or... she might not wake up at all."
"I just need to make a call, then I'll be back." Everett wasn't worried about work. Kevin could handle that. He was worried that Dorothy might be upset if she couldn’t reach him.
“Do you have any idea who your mother despises the most in this world? Don't think I don't know who you're planning to call! I won't allow it!"
"I wasn't asking for your permission." With that, Everett tried to push past the pair.

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...
