The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 404

"No way! You're lying!" Langston yelled.

Everett shrugged, pulling out his smartphone with a smirk, "1:03 AM, 10:27 AM, and looks like you were snooping around the server again just a minute ago."

Langston's eyes widened in disbelief. "But I reset everything!"

Watching his son's frustrated little face, Everett couldn't help but walk back and pinch his cheek affectionately.

"Who taught you these tech moves?"

"My mentor. He's the real deal!"

As his son excitedly praised someone else, Everett felt a twinge of jealousy and raised an eyebrow, tossing out a challenge, "After I wrap up some stuff, I'll teach you myself."

Grabbing his car keys, he headed out to the grocery store. He made sure to pick up some extra veggies to give his son a nutritious meal.

Just as he was about to leave, Everett spotted a bunch of toys on sale at the entrance. Drawn by the colorful array, he started to wander over.

"Hey, could you help me get these toys to the car?"

"Sure thing, sir!"

With his shopping done and realizing the meeting time was approaching, Everett realized he wouldn't have time to cook. After a brief pause, he dialed Kevin.

"Postpone the meeting by three hours."

"Mr. Lopez, you'll be skipping out on rest tonight then!"

"My kid wants to taste my cooking."

With that one line, Kevin understood. "I'll let everyone know right away."

"And Kevin, have you settled the East Star Enterprises issue?"

"All settled, Mr. Lopez! Lane tried to use his clout to fire Ms. Sanchez. I intercepted and cut off his power."

Kevin blabbered on, eager to boast, mentioning Dorothy Sanchez, causing Everett to frown.
