The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 428

Despite her reservations, Dorothy couldn't bring herself to bite again after tasting blood. She was left struggling, not having the heart to bite again.

It wasn't until Kenneth strode over from across the way and punched Everett's shoulder that the two were finally separated!

Everett staggered back a few steps, while Kenneth, his face flushed with rage, was ready to punch him again, completely devoid of reason!

Seeing this, Dorothy quickly intervened.

"Kenneth, stop! Don't hit him!"

Kenneth managed to halt his fist in time, looking up at Dorothy.

Her lips were flushed red after the kiss, with faint traces of blood still visible, evidence of Everett's intense passion!

It was clear that this had been a show for Kenneth.

"Dorothy, he's bullying you!"

"No, that's not it! Kenneth, please go back to the car. I'll come to you in a bit!"

Dorothy certainly didn't want the two men to come to blows! After all, Kenneth was no match for Everett. Whether it was physical strength or social standing.

"Dorothy!"

Kenneth, frustrated, glanced towards Everett who was not too far away.

Everett, his long fingers wiping the blood from his lips, locked eyes with him, his gaze defiant and triumphant, like a victor assured of his win!

"Kenneth, let me handle this, okay? We've got our appointment with Byte 7 today. We can't miss out on important stuff! We'll talk about this later!"

Dorothy dreaded the thought of their meeting being delayed because of this confrontation, and she feared that Everett might harm Kenneth.

After all, this was in front of the Lopez Building in Eldorria City, Everett's domain.

"If you didn’t care, why didn’t you let Kenneth continue?" Everett cut her off and started closing the distance with long strides, cornering her. "Dorothy, you couldn’t even bring yourself to bite me a second time!"

Her deepest feelings were exposed, and her face stiffened.

"I, I..."

"Dorothy." Everett closed the gap quickly, backing Dorothy into a tight corner, forcing her to look at him. "Tell me what really happened back then. I want to know the truth."

Dorothy didn't want to look at him, because in front of Everett, it seemed all her emotions were impossible to hide!

But Everett lifted his hand, holding her chin firmly, refusing to let her look away.

"Dorothy, tell me, whatever it is, we'll face it together."

He had said those words before.
