The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 301

His captivating hazel eyes would be enough to charm any woman.

Add to that his impressive lineage and work ethic, and he would have no trouble finding a girlfriend if he weren't such a playboy.

Dorothy dismissed him as a man with too much time on his hands who was just looking to amuse himself.

"Over here!" Lane spotted her and waved as he removed his sunglasses.

After taking a deep breath, Dorothy navigated the distance in her heels. "Why so early? I figured I wouldn't see you until noon."

"Isn't it customary to make an effort when pursuing someone? I was afraid you'd leave for work without me."

His actions made it seem as if he were genuinely interested in her.

Dorothy didn't take it and kept a healthy distance between them. "You're making me uncomfortable, Lane. I liked how things were between us now. I don't want to change it."

"But you said you'd give me a chance to prove myself. Isn't this my chance?"

"I don't usually eat breakfast. I prefer to wait until lunch."

She preferred the breakfast made by a certain someone who would cook for her in the mornings.

"Oh... well, now I know." Lane's eyes flashed with disappointment, but he kept smiling. "Let's not waste it. I'll give it to Austin. Let's get going."

Dorothy pointed to her car parked nearby. "I'll drive myself. See you at the office."
