The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 458

On the mention of Abigail and Langston, Dorothy finally settled her gaze with a different light sparked in her eyes.

“Abigail... she's okay, right?”

“She's fine! Heather didn’t lay a finger on her. With Karen watching over her, she didn’t even lose a hair!”

“And what about Karen?”

Kenneth thinned his lips and didn’t answer immediately.

Dorothy clenched her heart and grabbed his sleeve, urgent with worry, “Is Karen badly hurt? Did Heather do something to her?”

At the thought of what Heather had done to herself, Dorothy was filled with instant terror!

She feared that Karen had suffered those torments.

“She’s alright, better than alright! Her parents picked her up to take care of her,” Kenneth quickly reassured her, “You're the one who got the worst of it, Dorothy. Come back with me. Who knows how long you’ll have to wait here?”

Kenneth had rushed to the scene earlier. By the time he arrived, Everett was already deeply unconscious, being whisked away in an ambulance along with Heather.

He had headed inside the warehouse. Upon entering, the smell of blood hit him. Following the scent, he stumbled upon a huge pool of blood on the ground.

It was a sight that shook him to his core!

Kenneth thought Everett hadn’t made it.

Later on, it was only after he held back Kevin, who was dealing with the aftermath, that he learned which hospital Everett had been taken to.

Kenneth knew Dorothy would ask about him as soon as she woke up.

But as for Everett’s condition, he knew it wasn’t good. Even if she stayed by the door all night, there might not be any news.

“Please, let me stay here to be with him,” Dorothy whispered weakly, “He's done so much for me. Let me do this.”

Dorothy tried to speak, but her voice was as if lost, her lips moving without sound.

Thankfully, Kenneth was there. He stood up and approached, “Hello, I wanted to ask about the patient brought in yesterday, Everett. How is he doing?”

The doctor blinked, recollecting, “Ah! The young heir of the wealthy Lopez family?”

“That’s the one!”

“He’s transferred overseas during the night!” The doctor glanced at Dorothy’s pale face and continued, “His injuries were too severe and that stab wound was fatal! Pierced right through the chest, there was nothing more we could do.”

Kenneth turned to support Dorothy, who was attempting to crawl to the doctor’s feet, her voice raspy and barely audible.

“Which... country did he go to?”

“I have no idea!” the doctor replied.
