“What? Say that again!”
Jeffrey’s voice boomed through the room, startling the manager to the point where he nearly thought his eardrums would burst.
“He... he just told me that.”
The manager was on the verge of tears. It wasn’t his choice to set up this blind date!
Jeffrey clenched his fists, storming toward Karen’s parents’ apartment door.
He hammered on the door, and there was Karen’s dad again.
Seeing another unfamiliar face on his doorstep, her dad looked cautious; he was sizing up the tall young man before him.
“Can I help you?”
“Karen’s going on a blind date?” Jeffrey had lost all sense of rationale, not caring about the harshness of his tone.
Derek scrutinized him for a few seconds and looked defensive, “What’s it to you?”
“Give me her cell number.”
“Son, if don’t even have Karen’s number, that must mean she doesn’t want to give it to you. I don’t know what you are to her, but my daughter isn’t home. If you have business, wait for her to come back.”
Jeffrey tried to speak again, but Derek had already shut the door.
He considered knocking again but knew it was pointless. Besides, Karen wasn’t there.
Jeffrey descended the steps, finding the manager still trembling in anticipation.
“Mr. Turner…”
“Just go, it’s none of your business anymore.”
Frustrated, Jeffrey slumped into his car, yanking a cigarette from the pack to light up.
“Nice move, Karen! Really smooth!”
She actually went on a blind date!
She actually went on a damn blind date!
Jeffrey punched the steering wheel, his teeth grinding audibly.

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...
