The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 407
Dorothy hesitated.
It wasn't that she suddenly fancied a career switch to Lopez Corporation; it was the steep penalty for breaching her contract that she couldn't afford.
Had it been just the stipulated penalty in the contract, she could have clenched her teeth and paid it, but to shoulder the entire responsibility for the Everglow City Resort project? That was out of her league.
After all, if Everett was willing to shell out big bucks for the acquisition of East Star Enterprises, would he really care about the resort's development costs? As the CEO, he could make the resort lose as much as he wanted, couldn't he?
A project worth hundreds of millions – once the responsibility was transferred, she might as well sell herself and still fall short of the payment!
"Ms. Sanchez, please reconsider. Should you change your mind, you're welcome to join us at the Lopez Corporation."
The person from HR hung up, leaving Dorothy slumped back onto her bed, the picture of defeat.
It was clear that Everett had cut off all her escape routes, leaving no room for maneuver.
But what on earth made him decide to do this?
...
In the hospital, Jeffrey still hadn't woken up.
After a day of observation in the hospital, his life was out of in danger, and now they were just waiting for the specialist Everett had invited to examine Jeffrey and hopefully find a way to wake him up.
Lane had called Jeffrey several times to ask about the Lopez Corporation's acquisition, only to discover that Jeffrey had been involved in a car accident and was hospitalized.
He dropped everything and rushed to the hospital where Jeffrey was being treated, but now, no one could see Jeffrey. They could only wait outside the ICU.
Huxley recognized Lane and approached him as he arrived. "I appreciate you coming."
"With the kind of friendship I have with Jeffrey, how could I not come when he's in such a serious condition? What exactly happened?"
"The police are still investigating, but all we know is that a car rear-ended Jeffrey's at high speed, causing a serious collision."
"And the driver at fault?"

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...
