The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 349

Jeffrey couldn't help but marvel at their uncanny resemblance. Langston looked identical to Everett, especially when he furrowed his brow in that same serious way that could easily get under one's skin.

"I knew it! He's a deadbeat dad!"

"You're right! He certainly is!" Jeffrey bent down to lift Langston and planted a peck on his cheek. "Come on, I will take you out for some good grub. Let's forget about that jerk. If we see him tomorrow, I'll kick him for you!"

Langston nodded vigorously. "Okay!"

Jeffrey took him to a local diner. He had no idea what kids typically ate, so he just ordered what seemed fancy. He filled the table with a variety of dishes.

Before they could even finish eating, a call from Heather came through. After seeing her name flash on the screen, Jeffrey realized he was not in the mood to answer, but he knew she would not let it slide easily. With a sigh, he answered the call.

"Hello?"

"Where are you, Jeffrey?" Heather's voice was laced with urgency.

"I'm out, having dinner."

"I heard there was a kid who looks exactly like Everett looking for him at the office today."

Jeffrey rubbed his temple. He knew this news would eventually reach her.

"I think there might have been something like that."

"Don't play dumb with me. The security guard said they couldn't find Everett, so they sent the kid to your office. Don't tell me you didn't know!" As soon as Heather heard the news, she immediately called Jeffrey. She didn’t waste a single second.

Jeffrey sighed. "Why are you interrogating me? The kid isn't mine, and I didn't invite him here."

"Then where is he now?"

Jeffrey glanced at Langston, deciding to follow his lead.
