Seeing Everett charge toward her like a bull seeing red, Heather had her lips ghostly pale with fear.
Luckily, her reflexes were quick. She snatched a dagger from the nearest man and pressed it to Dorothy's throat.
"Everett, take one more step and I'll take Dorothy down with me!"
Everett's eyes blazed with a bloodthirsty fury. At the sight of Dorothy, barely clinging to life with wounds all over, he was ignited with a primal desire to flay Heather alive.
"Let her go!"
"Not a chance!" Heather tightened her grip on Dorothy's neck, and the dagger glinted menacingly against her carotid artery. "Move any closer, and Dorothy meets her maker!"
Everett halted his advance abruptly, and his posse swiftly encircled Heather.
Kevin rushed in, took stock of the situation, and immediately tended to Karen and Abigail before having them whisked away to the hospital.
He knew Heather wasn't escaping today.
"Everett, even now, you're still blinded by that tramp! Can't you see what I've done for you?" Heather's laugh was maniacal. As she moved, the dagger sliced Dorothy's skin, drawing fresh blood that stained the blade and Heather's hand.
The pain seemed to jolt Dorothy back to consciousness.

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...
