The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 205

Inside Amanda's VIP hospital suite, there was a constant stream of doctors popping in to check on her, each one leaving with a sigh of resignation.

Everett, who had been standing vigil by his mother's side, was visibly anxious. If it weren't for his reluctance to worsen his parents' opinion of Dorothy, he would have been long gone.

When the chief physician entered and left the room for the third time, Everett couldn't contain his frustration anymore.

"No news from Dorothy?" He questioned his father.

"I would've told you if she'd responded." Jonathan replied, pulling out his phone as proof.

Suddenly, Everett rose to his feet, heading for the door.

"Where are you going?" Jonathan quickly intercepted him.

"To smoke a cigarette."

"I'll join you."

Everett furrowed his eyebrows as he glanced at his father. "Can you leave mom alone here?"

"We have nurses, and she won't be waking up anytime soon. I need some fresh air too."

"I need to borrow your phone then." Before Jonathan could protest, Everett added, "I need to give Kevin some instructions. I've been away from the office for too long; I can't be out of touch."

After a brief moment of thought, Jonathan agreed and handed over his phone.

The father-son duo exited the room, and once they were out of earshot, Everett dialed Kevin. Jonathan, now somewhat at ease, lit up a cigarette.
