The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 204
"Mr. Lopez's child?" Karen was still reeling in shock, barely registering what Dorothy was saying.
Thankfully, Kenneth was in the room. He promptly shut the door and clamped a hand over his sister's mouth. "Dorothy said to keep it hush-hush. Zip it!"
"But, but..." Karen couldn't understand why such a thing had to be kept a secret.
Having a child was a game-changer. Surely the Lopez family wouldn't dare cross her now. Shouldn't this baby be Dorothy's shield?
"Do you think they would hesitate to harm an unborn child when they've already shown their willingness to take my mother’s life?" Dorothy said.
Karen was at a loss for words.
Kenneth nodded, feeling a shiver of fear.
If those people targeted Dorothy directly, she wouldn't be here now.
The might of the Lopez family was unparalleled. Not only in Eldorria City but nationwide, few could stand against them. Their corporation was a significant contributor to the city's tax revenue. Going against them was like trying to stop a freight train with a feather.
Karen furrowed her brows. "But you still have Mr. Lopez. He truly loves you."
Dorothy gave a wry smile as her gaze dropped. "I know, but on the other hand, there are his biological parents."
She didn't doubt Everett's love for her, but when compared to parental love, she wasn't sure if their love was enough.
"You're just going to let your mother's death slide?"
"As a daughter, I won't let this go. Those who have blood on their hands, including Everett's parents, won't be spared."
Hence she had to sever ties with Everett.

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...
