The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 287

Being a divorcee, the news of Dorothy's pregnancy and the birth of her daughter seemed like a natural progression of events.

In truth, the moment Lane discovered the connection between Dorothy and Everett, he didn't need any further proof.

The uncanny resemblance between father and daughter was so obvious that only a fool would fail to see it.

Dorothy felt like her knees were about to buckle. She could put on a brave face at any time to appear strong and invincible, but not when it came to her children.

She couldn't let the Lopez family know about her daughter, let alone her son.

"What are you trying to achieve by telling me all this?" Dorothy's eyes turned sharp and vigilant. She looked at Lane as though he was a potential threat.

Lane raised his hands in surrender, signaling her to calm down. "Don't jump to conclusions just yet. Yesterday, I had a long chat with Jeffrey. He even asked me for a picture of your daughter, and I told him I didn't have one."

"You have a picture of my daughter?"

Lane shrugged. "I don't have one on me, but if I wanted one, I could just check the security cameras at the Dreamscape Hotel, couldn't I?"

Dorothy was at a loss for words.

"But I didn't do that. I even managed to curb Jeffrey's curiosity and convince him not to tell Everett about your child." Lane tried to soothe her growing anxiety. "You don't have to worry anymore. You should know by now that I'm on your side."

Dorothy knew he was probably telling the truth. Otherwise, with Jeffrey's temperament, he would've confronted her by now.
