Dorothy was sound asleep in the hospital room. Her energy thoroughly sapped by Everett. It was hard to tell if she had simply succumbed to exhaustion or slipped into unconsciousness.
Sunlight streamed through the window, bathing her face in a warm glow that made her look even more delicate and beautiful. Dorothy's beauty wasn't the kind that screamed for attention with bold makeup. She was the pure and bright, with a face the size of a palm and vibrant, clear almond eyes. Dressed in a simple T-shirt and jeans, she could pass for an undergrad on campus. But when she wore something a little more well-designed, something that hugged her curves, she would have temptation adding on that purity .
Her waist was so slim that Everett could easily pin her down with one arm and indulge in her. Despite her slender frame, she had an impressively developed bust, which was not exactly voluptuous but certainly something to be proud of.
Everett had been sitting by her side, watching over her without moving. He was reluctant to look away even for a moment, until Karen's call came through.
He couldn't fathom why Jeffrey would do that, but Karen was Dorothy's best friend and had been a great help to her. This was something he felt he needed to get involved with.
Fearing to disturb Dorothy, Everett picked up his phone and stepped out of the room. He winced with each step he took.
It took several rings before Jeffrey answered.
"Hey, Everett..."
The guilt was evident in his voice.
"What's the deal with you and Karen?"
"She talked to you?!" Jeffrey's voice spiked in pitch, causing Everett to hold the phone away from his ear to avoid the sudden outburst.
"That's not important."
"It is important!"
With a sigh, Jeffrey recounted the event, conveniently leaving out the part where he'd got impotent. The more he talked, the more he felt like the victim—how unfair it all was! She interrupted him, and he in turned had to sooth her!

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...
