The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 503

Perhaps to others, the fact that Everett had saved Dorothy and she sought him out was nothing special.

But for Everett, that was an affirmation!

It meant that he had officially become someone Dorothy cared about.

The significance of that place in her heart was immense to him. He dared not even hope to occupy a large space there, as long as he wasn't kicked out.

...

Jeffrey rushed back to the hotel and paced back and forth outside Karen’s door for ages without knocking.

He wasn't sure what he feared. For the first time, he felt a entanglement of emotions.

He never felt this anxious even back when he had a crush on Heather.

Suddenly, the door swung open!

Jeffrey looked up startled, and their eyes met. His mind went blank, unable to conjure up anything to say.

"What are you doing here?" Karen asked, freshly showered and changed, about to take a walk.

Without Jeffrey’s car, she planned not to stray too far, just to make sure she could find her way back.

But as soon as she opened the door, there he was!

"I... I..." Jeffrey stammered. Words failed him.

Karen thought he was gearing up for another argument and tempted to shut the door!

Jeffrey quickly blocked it with his hand.

This time Karen didn’t hold back, slamming the door so hard right on Jeffrey’s hand. He yelped in pain.

"Are you insane? I'm injured here!"

"A few more bruises won’t make much difference. Compared to what Heather went through, I'm really being gentle to you."
