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.

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...
