The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 49

Talk about a small world!

Dorothy had imagined she might run into someone from the Sanchez family before she came, but she didn't expect to see him right off the bat.

No wonder that woman started stirring the pot again. So they were back from abroad.

This couldn't be good.

"Do you think Edward wants to cut and run from the Social Networking Service because there’s something fishy with the company?" Kevin's voice brought her back from her thoughts.

Dorothy nodded, making sure to sit with her back to Maxton. "Otherwise, even without the backing of the Lopez Corporation for going public, the revenue of the Social Networking Service isn't shabby, unless he has a better gig lined up. Leaving money on the table and pulling out his shares is a big decision."

Anyone who invested in a company from the get-go definitely had high hopes for it.

Either they were really good friends, or they were family. Given this, as an original shareholder, he would have to think long and hard before making a move.

Also, share changes take time from declaration to realization, which meant Edward was dead set on leaving.

"Could you look up Edward's shareholdings in other companies?"

Dorothy smiled. She quickly flipped through her phone and handed it to Kevin. "Here's the latest."

"Dorothy, I'm starting to see you in a new light." Kevin was a workaholic. The pizza just arrived, and he started reading the information without even bothering to eat.

His compliment for her didn't matter, but it did catch the attention of Maxton behind her.

"Dorothy?"

"It really is you!"

Maxton walked over. He was about to say something when she stood up first.
