The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 225
Everett's voice was raspy and weak, yet his gaze remained sharp and imposing.
Startled, Heather withdrew her hand immediately.
"I… I just wanted to check your forehead and see if you have a fever."
"No need." Everett's voice bore an insurmountable detachment. It was even tinged with a hint of desolation.
When he first opened his eyes moments ago, he thought the female figure before him was Dorothy. He had thought she still couldn't bear to leave him.
But when Everett strained his eyes to see and realized that it was Heather, the disappointment and the icy chill of dejection swept over him.
"I heard you drank yourself into the hospital. I was terrified, Everett! If not for others, think about your parents! The whole of Lopez Corporation is waiting for you, yet you're sacrificing it all for a woman, just... just like that?"
As Heather spoke, her eyes welled up.
She felt a mix of heartache, indignation, and resentment.
She was so envious of Dorothy.
Why did Dorothy always have what she longed for? What made Dorothy so much better than her to be so cherished by Everett?
"That's none of your business."
"Everett! Wake up! Dorothy doesn't love you!" Heather's voice trembled. "In this world, no one cares about you more than I do! I was willing to play your pretend girlfriend for your mother's sake. I was willing to take the blame for framing Dorothy. I was even willing to leave the Lopez Corporation, where I've worked so hard, all to alleviate your troubles so you wouldn't be distressed. But what has Dorothy done besides causing you grief and trouble? What can she do?"
