"It's impossible. He always finishes his homework swiftly, and the school teachers never force them to complete their assignments. Langston is a bright and quick-witted kid. The stuff they learn at school is a piece of cake for him."
Dorothy could feel a pulsating ache in her temples.
If it weren't for the fact that Langston was missing, she would've fallen apart when she received Kenneth's call. She would've lost all her strength and wouldn't have been able to stand.
"Kenneth, everything is up to you now. You must help me find him!"
"I will do whatever it takes! In my eyes, Langston is no different from my own son."
Dorothy knew he must be trying hard, but Langston always had a mind of his own. He did things that were beyond his age. He possibly inherited too much from a certain someone.
Just as she hung up with Kenneth, Karen's call came in.
"Did you find him? My brother's line was busy. It's driving me nuts!"
"He was on the phone with me just now." Dorothy anxiously glanced at the departure time. "Langston is still missing. I'm about to fly back to meet you, and then we'll go there together."
"Alright, I've already packed up Abigail's stuff. We can leave at any time!" Karen's voice carried a sense of urgency that was unusual for her. Hearing that Langston was missing was like losing her own child.
"Karen, take care of Abigail."
"Don't say such things! Look at the time."
After hanging up, Dorothy couldn't sit still. She started pacing around the airport.
All she hoped for now was a call from Kenneth telling her that Langston had been found. She didn't want to hear anything else.
Dorothy was so absorbed in her worries that she didn't notice two pairs of eyes watching her from not far away.

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...
