The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 282
"So, you're really smitten with your husband, huh?" Although Lane tried to pass it off as a joke, his voice betrayed his disappointment.
He knew he'd probably never win the spot in her heart he longed for.
"Lane, I don't want any drama in my life. I just want to be an ordinary woman."
"But does your husband feel the same way about you?" Lane persisted. He was unwilling to let it go.
Dorothy hesitated for a long time before finally whispering, "No one could love me more than he does."
"Alright, I understand."
After hanging up the phone, Dorothy set it aside. She felt completely drained. All her courage had been spent on her confrontation with Jeffrey earlier.
Every second of it was incredibly hard to bear.
She was terrified Jeffrey would detect something amiss and that he'd realize she was lying.
She wouldn't see Everett again, but she still loved him.
...
In the restaurant, Lane had been visibly upset since returning from his call.
Jeffrey knew he'd messed up their meeting and could only try to make up for it by refilling Lane's glass. "Long time no see. Won't you have a drink with me?"
Lane lifted his gaze to meet Jeffrey's as he downed his drink in one go. "Tell me what's going on between you and Dorothy. I've known her for a long time, and I've never seen her so unsettled."

Can you please convey this to the person who owns this website? Update “find me in your labyrinth” novel please...author is MIA since 12/4......
I don't agree with not letting him in. That just seems cruel and besides wasn't the whole point of getting pregnant again was for him to experience and travel the journey of pregnancy with her?...
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....
