"Alright, just tell him Mommy turned into a butterfly and flew away!"
Karen rolled her eyes. "I'm gonna lay low for a bit then. When Kenneth gets here, you tell him I've turned into a butterfly alongside your mom and fluttered off too!"
"Why can't you take me with you?"
Langston clutched at the hem of Karen's sweater. "Aunt Karen, don't leave me behind!"
"I've got my own storm to weather, bud."
Karen lingered in the hospital room, mustering up the courage to call Kenneth.
As soon as he answered, he blurted out, "Is something up with Dorothy?"
"Uh... she's fine, really... happy!"
"Great, I'll freshen up and head over to the hospital to switch with you. Got any cravings? I can bring something by." Kenneth's relief was palpable, his voice noticeably lighter.
Karen was at a loss for words. And her hesitation didn't go unnoticed.
"What's wrong?"
"Bro... Dorothy, she's not at the hospital anymore." Karen braced herself after the confession. "She's gone to find Everett."
"What did you say?!"
"It was Langston! He must've told her where Everett was!" Karen threw the kid under the bus without a second thought!
After all, he was the one who stirred up trouble!
Langston's eyes widened. "Aunt Karen! Are you seriously doing this?"
"Yep, stop talking!"
Kenneth had no patience for their antics. After hanging up, he rushed to the hospital.

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...
