Dorothy instinctively glanced in the direction he pointed.
Sure enough, Kenneth stood not far away, phone in hand, smiling at her. "Over here!"
Seeing Kenneth's figure, Dorothy's heart was filled with indescribable emotions.
It would be a lie to say she wasn't touched at all, but this kind of emotion felt more like familial affection, unrelated to romance.
Many times, Dorothy had thought, if she hadn't met Everett first, but had been paired up with Kenneth through Karen's matchmaking, she'd most likely be committed to living a life with him!
But all these assumptions were based on the condition that Everett didn't exist.
Dorothy stood up, slowly walking towards him, "Kenneth, why haven't you left?"
"I just couldn't bear the thought of you being alone in Eldorria City, so I had my friend take Karen and the kids and leave first! You don’t have to worry, because the friend who is driving them is an old classmate of mine; they’ll be safe and he won’t betray us."
Dorothy wasn’t concerned about that, but…
"You just stood here waiting?"
"I stayed primarily to be with you." Kenneth spoke without a hint of complaint, his voice gentle and warm, "Are you done now? Let's go."
Dorothy nodded, following Kenneth.
The wind was getting stronger, and rain seemed imminent, specially in the summer, when rain came without notice.
"Shall we find a place to stay first, and continue our journey tomorrow morning?" Dorothy suggested.
Kenneth paused, then turned around smiling, "Sounds good! You don’t seem to be in the best mood today; it would be perfect to find a hotel, take a nice bath, get a good sleep, and then we can hit the road when you wake up naturally! And don’t worry about the kids; they love Karen and will be obedient."
Dorothy merely nodded, managing a forced smile.

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...
