Though the question went unanswered, his silence alone was enough.
Jonathan pursed his lips, not adding a word more.
At that moment, he believed Dorothy wasn't with his son for the money, but what did it matter? She wasn't the woman his wife had chosen for their son, and that was that.
...
Dorothy picked a secluded grave for her mother. It was tucked away in the corner of the cemetery.
She didn't want her mother to be disturbed anymore.
After the hospital formalities were taken care of, Bella's body was moved to a funeral home, waiting to be laid to rest following the service.
Karen, who had taken time off work to be here, was heartbroken to see Dorothy act so stoic. “Dorothy, have you eaten? I can ask Kenneth to get you something. Please, you need to eat.”
Dorothy turned to her, managing a weak smile. “I'm okay, really. Thanks for being here, both you and Kenneth. I hate that it's taking you away from work.”
“Work? You're worrying about work at a time like this?” Karen grasped Dorothy’s hand, feeling like the woman before her might dissolve into smoke at any moment.
It was quite shocking how it only took a few hours for someone to look so utterly drained.
It seemed like a gust of wind could knock Dorothy over at any time.
“Everett's people will be coming to question you soon. He might even show up himself. Don't tell them anything.” Dorothy knew Everett well.
He wasn't going to let this go easily. A man who had silently loved her for so many years wouldn't give up without digging up every last detail.

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...
