The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 523

Karen glanced at his phone, her expression clearly stating she had no intention of taking it.

"No need."

No need?!

Jeffrey's face darkened and even got a little grim, "Not even going to give me your number?"

Looking up, Karen's eyes were filled with disbelief, as if the request was the most absurd thing she'd ever heard, "Why would I give you my number?"

"We just... you know," Jeffrey stammered, struggling to find the right words in his cracked brain during the early hours of the morning. "Don't you want to keep some sort of... memento?"

Karen laughed, "With all the souvenirs you've got, you won't miss one from me. Once you're back in home, just hook up a few more times and consider it on my behalf."

She wasn't about to get caught up in Jeffrey's long list of conquests or leave her mark there.

Her instinct told her to distance herself.

Yet Jeffrey, visibly panicked, grabbed her arm and pulled her back into the room.

"Karen, are you playing me? After all the effort I put in, you think I'm some gigolo?"

"As if you didn't enjoy it!" Karen retorted, pointing to the evidence in the trash can, "You went through all of that!"

Silence fell between them.

"Are you finished? I really need to sleep now!" she said; her exhaustion made her vision blur.

But Jeffrey stood there, immovable, with anger brewed in his eyes.

"Why did you suddenly decide to hook up with me?"

Karen paused, "I wanted to, so I asked. No big reason. It's not like I forced you. You agreed, didn't you?"

Grinding his teeth, Jeffrey felt a mix of embarrassment and humiliation.
