She tried to act as if the awkward encounter with Jeffrey hadn't just happened.
But Jeffrey's mood soured. "Seriously, I need to drive you back? I'm out here on the prowl, not to play your personal chauffeur!"
"But didn't you just..."
"God dammit, I'm totally deflated now. I did what?"
Karen swallowed hard, clearing her throat lightly. "Alright then, I won't keep you. Go find some girl to cure your impotence."
Jeffrey felt like he could be driven to his grave by this woman's nerve.
"Okay, you're throwing these accusations at me. I can’t argue anymore. Guess I have no choice but to prove you wrong with actions!"
With a strong push, he swung the door wide open and strode in.
Karen stumbled backward and realized it was too late to shut the door.
"What are you doing?! Let me remind you, this is illegal!"
"Don't play coy. You think I haven't noticed you drooling over me?" He cornered her, leaving her no escape. "Who couldn't take her eyes off me when on the plane?"
His face, magnified and all too close, nearly made Karen feel like the air she needed was being sucked away.
But that didn't soften her resolve.
"I did not!"
"Heh." Jeffrey sneered, casually grabbing her butt. "You might not have the curves of a pin-up, but I guess you'll do."
"Bah! Get off me!" Karen tried to wriggle free, but his strength was overwhelming.
It was then that she realized the man in front of her was indeed very much a man.
Continually mocking and infuriating him was likely to provoke a reaction she couldn't counter.

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...
