When the phone call ended, Jonathan didn't bother sending anyone else to intervene.
He figured if his wife saw the look in their son's eyes just now, she'd likely have second thoughts as well.
Just from that one look, he had no doubt that Everett would cut ties with him for the sake of Dorothy.
...
After leaving the hospital, Everett got straight into the car.
Even without being told, Kevin knew where to drive.
On the road, Everett kept calling Dorothy, but no one was picking up.
"Did you get a hold of Dorothy today?"
"No. She said she was going for a check-up. I figured she'd finally taken a day off, so it wouldn't be fair to bother her about work." Kevin paused before continuing, "After you instructed me, I tried calling her too, but there was still no answer."
Everett's thick brows furrowed as his eyes became glued to his phone screen.
The car soon arrived at the Bay Residence, and sure enough, the house was empty.
Dorothy wasn’t home.
While looking at the darkening sky outside, he was more certain that something had happened to Dorothy.
After a moment’s thought, Everett barked out another order to Kevin. “Drive to the hospital where Dorothy’s mother is.”
“Sure thing, Mr. Lopez.”
Just as the two were about to head to the hospital, they noticed a car driving their way.
Given that the Bay Residence was a high-end property with few owners and Everett's property was a private area he had specifically set aside, he was almost certain that Dorothy was in the car.
Just as Everett was about to open the car door, he saw the car stop.
A familiar figure got out from the driver's side, walked over to the passenger side, and started talking to the person inside.

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...
