The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 212
The two men turned in unison, watching as she jogged over and forcefully pushed Everett aside to stand in front of Kenneth. "What do you think you're doing to Kenneth?!"
Everett hadn't expected such a fiery reaction from her. Dorothy stood before him like a steadfast soldier. Her entire being radiated an aura of caution and defiance. Her wary and distant gaze pierced him deeply.
"Kenneth, are you okay?"
Kenneth, still gasping for fresh air, managed a weak wave of his hand to signal he was okay.
Once she had confirmed Kenneth was unharmed, Dorothy turned her icy gaze back towards Everett, lambasting him with a cold fury. "Is this all the Lopez family knows how to do? Do you think that because you're the CEO of Lopez Corporation, you can trample on everyone around you? Do we all seem like insignificant ants to you that could be toyed with and crushed at your whim?"
Each word she spat out was sharp and unyielding. Her condemnation of him was relentless.
Earlier, Dorothy had called Kevin to discuss resigning, only to find out that Everett wasn't at the company.
Worried that Everett might come after Kenneth, she rushed over, only to find Everett with his hand around Kenneth's throat.
She was terrified.
She feared that her actions might lead to Kenneth's death, too.
The guilt from her mother's death was already too heavy a burden. She wished she could've died with her.
Dorothy found it hard to hold Everett's intense gaze. She slowly turned away. "My mother's operation is over. I've learned everything I needed to know about investment banking business. I can't keep up this charade anymore."
"I don't believe it was all an act." Everett’s face was set in stone. His eyes were filled with heavy emotions that refused to dissipate.
She just scoffed.
Each laugh felt like a slap in his face.
"Believe what you want. It's over between us. In fact, I'm quite proud of myself. Who knew I could make the mighty Mr. Lopez fall for me? Kenneth, you better treat me right. Otherwise, see? Mr. Lopez is my backup."
