The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 5
The tattoo looked kind of old. It was sunk deep into his skin; it didn't look like it was freshly inked.
If what Karen said was true, then 0825 must be the birthday of his sweetheart, right?
After all, she knew Everett’s birthday was in April, and the birthdays of Everett's parents, the chairman and his wife, were in July.
Certainly, it had nothing to do with her either.
Her birthday was November 14th.
None of those four digits matched up.
What could possibly drive a guy like Everett, who was cold to the bone, to do something as crazy and a bit childish as getting a tattoo? He must have seriously fallen for the person.
Dorothy suddenly regretted her impulsive behavior last night. Why didn't she think to ask if Mr. Lopez was single?
Even though Everett was handsome, fit, and capable, she still had morals. No matter how good other people's men were, she couldn’t just make a move on them.
"Karen, do you know anyone close to Mr. Lopez who has a birthday on August 25th?"
"How would I know?! The Prosperity Consortium is just a branch of the Lopez Corporation, and we're already dominating 70% of the domestic hot investment market. Everett is the CEO of the entire Lopez Corporation. I'm not worthy enough to know his gossip."
Really Karen?
She wasn’t worthy enough to know, yet she seemed to know quite a bit.
Suddenly, Karen remembered something. “Wait, I think the chief lawyer of the Lopez Corporation, Heather Garcia, has a birthday in August. I’ve seen her resume before. She’s a total, rich beauty. She even made it to the trending list when she attended an event with Mr. Lopez. I'll find a picture for you."
"No need." Dorothy cut her off.
With just that, she could already imagine a whole soap opera unfolding.
No wonder Everett was so harsh today. He was all business, not giving her any dignity. He must have been worried that she would spill the beans, so he intentionally gave others the impression that he was not close with her to distance himself. That way, even if she did spill something, no one would believe her.
Ha!

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...
