The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 372
Yep, that was Everett's phone number!
No way in hell would Dorothy ever forget the number.
How did he get her number? And why was he calling her?
"Dorothy, why aren't you picking up?" Karen, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned around to see her. Noticing something off, she asked, "You look pale. Who's calling?"
"It's Everett..."
Kenneth, who was driving, slammed on the brakes.
"What?! Who?"
"Everett." As she spoke, the phone stopped ringing, the screen showing a missed call.
Kenneth glanced at Dorothy from the rear-view mirror, a tense atmosphere spreading in the car.
"Did he find out something?"
Karen reached out to take the phone. "Give it to me, I'll answer it. Let's see what he wants. I can pretend I don't know who he is. After all, I don't know his number and your phone is registered under my name. It's normal for me to take the call."
But Dorothy just stared at the screen, not responding.
Until Abigail and Langston, realizing that something was wrong with their mom, started tugging at her clothes.
"Mommy, what's wrong?" Abigail blinked.
Langston was a bit more astute. After a moment's thought, he pulled out his own phone. "Mommy, is that guy bullying you again? I'll get back at him right now!"
"No." Dorothy finally spoke. "No, let me calm down for a bit."
She needed to know why Everett was calling her, at least get a sense of how far his suspicions or investigations had gone.
"Karen, I..."
"I know what you're thinking, but Dorothy made clear that she doesn't want your help. You need to know your limits."
Kenneth was silent for a long while before starting the car again.
"Yeah, I should know my limits."
...
Summer evenings were supposed to be cool and pleasant, but the wind was unusually strong tonight.
Dorothy pulled her coat tighter around her, found a bench under a bus stop and sat down.
Looking at the missed call on her phone screen, she took several deep breaths. Her fingertips were slightly trembling as she dialed back.

Why didn't Jeffrey call Everett from the office? Lock his door instruct security to not let anyone in and speak to Everett on the phone?
