Dorothy had finally decided to stay in Eldorria City. She had Karen bring Abigail along.
Although it was a risky move, as a mother, she couldn't continue to leave Langston alone abroad any longer.
Kenneth, her trusted advisor, had his reservations, but in the end, he respected her decision and offered his full support.
As dusk settled over the city, Dorothy stood by the window of her hotel room, lost in thought as she watched the streetlights flicker to life outside. She took a deep breath and dialed Lane's number on her cell phone.
"Hey Lane, I'm gonna need you to pass off my project to someone else. I'm quitting."
"Quitting?" Lane's voice spiked with surprise. "Do you even know what you're saying, Dorothy?"
She had always been reliable, and the idea of her throwing in the towel was completely off the radar for Lane.
"I do, and I'm sorry for letting you down, but I can't continue with my position right now." Dorothy had no idea when she would be able to return, and with the fast-paced nature of their work, even a few hours could mean a world of difference.
By bringing it up with Lane now, she hoped he'd find someone to fill her shoes without the company suffering any losses.
"I already agreed to give you a break. You can take as much time off as you want. Why do you want to resign? You promised to stay until the end of the project!"
"Lane, as the head of the company, you should understand that my resignation from the project is the best course of action."
His plea was personal.
"I don't see it that way! And I'm not accepting your resignation. The contract is clear, after your promotion to supervisor, you need to give a six-month notice. Dorothy, I don't think you're someone who would breach a contract."

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...
