The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 264

"Lane, check if there's any surveillance footage. If we can find the guy, I'd love to show our company's appreciation. Without him, I’m sure things would have been much worse."

As they were engrossed in their discussion, both failed to notice that Dorothy's thoughts seemed to drift away.

A tall, skinny man. Could it be him?

Before she passed out, she thought she heard a familiar voice. It was just as gentle as it was years ago. She was sure it was just an illusion.

Everett was supposed to be getting married abroad, wasn't he? How could he be here, saving her?

But Austin's words made her heart race. A strange intuition began to surge within her.

Dorothy asked, "Austin, any news from the investment firm today? Did anyone come to inspect it?"

Austin was taken aback. "No, don't worry. We won't let them see what happened. It won't affect the project."

Dorothy's lips quivered. "Are you...sure?"

"Absolutely! If someone from the investment firm came and I didn't know about it, I wouldn't be fit to be the project manager." Austin reassured her with a smile, which ended up being a grimace due to his injuries.

Both Lane and Austin thought she was concerned about the company's project. They comforted her, saying that even if the incident was seen by the investment firm, it wouldn't be an issue as long as it was resolved.

What they didn't know was that Dorothy simply wanted to know one thing.

Did Everett come?

But she didn't ask. Rationality told her it was impossible. It was just a hallucination triggered by all the chaos.
