The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 303

After all, he was just a "driver." What could he possibly have in common with Dorothy? If he tried to force a conversation, given Dorothy's personality, he'd probably be deleted in no time.

She didn't take kindly to sudden intrusions.

Everett knew this all too well.

He was all too aware of how quickly Dorothy could cut someone off.

"Knock, knock."

The sudden sound of knocking echoed from outside his office.

Everett's gaze finally shifted from his phone. "Come in."

The door creaked open to reveal Kevin.

"Mr. Lopez, I am heading to Everglow City."

Should he also book a flight for Everett? Of course, Kevin didn't dare ask that outright.

"Hmm." Everett simply hummed in response, and then his attention returned to the documents on his desk.

Upon seeing his reaction, Kevin assumed that Everett was not planning to accompany him to Everglow City, so he set down the project proposal he was holding and turned to leave.

Just as he was about to reach the door, Everett called out to him.

"Book me a flight for next Monday."

"To Everglow City?"

Everett looked up at him and furrowed his brows. "To Havenbrook City."

"Huh?"

Kevin was finding it increasingly difficult to understand Mr. Lopez.

After exiting the office, he took the elevator up to the fifteenth floor, where he ran into Heather. Heather was dressed in a sleek dress, and her high heels added to her glamorous aura.

Upon seeing Kevin, she offered him a small smile.

A simple 'I don't know' could dismiss any question.

If Mr. Lopez wanted to tell Heather, she wouldn't need to ask him.

If Mr. Lopez didn't want to tell Heather, and he did, would there be a place for him at the Lopez Corporation anymore?

"You've been with Everett the longest, and you're his most trusted assistant. So, you should know how deeply Dorothy hurt him. He can marry someone else; I won't stop him, but not Dorothy."

Heather's repeated insistence that she was acting in Everett's best interest could easily fool the uninformed.

But not Kevin.

He was a witness to Heather's scheme against Dorothy.

"Mr. Lopez has been very busy with work lately. He probably doesn't have time to think about these things. Heather, you came to the Lopez Corporation because we have too many projects and needed your help, right?"

Seeing that she wasn't getting anywhere, Heather grew frustrated. "Kevin, I know you're on Dorothy's side!"
