The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 579

Dorothy remained silent.

Surprisingly, Everett didn't push her for an answer. Or perhaps, deep down, he already knew what it was.

...

Truth be told, even if Dorothy hadn't asked Karen to break the news in advance, Kenneth knew a day like this would come eventually.

After all, the children weren't really his. Everett wouldn't let him play dad forever.

In a few hours, Dorothy and Everett would be landing at Eldorria City Airport.

Kenneth watched as the living room bustled, the two kids dressed and ready to go with Karen to pick them up. A complex mix of emotions brewed inside him.

Karen was ruffling Abigail's hair, laughing and chasing after the kids. She looked up and caught Kenneth's pained expression.

"Hey, you munchkins, keep playing. Aunt Karen needs to chat with Kenneth for a sec."

She gave Abigail's head a gentle pat before walking over to Kenneth.

"Something eating you up, Kenneth?"

Kenneth's lips twisted into a half-smile. "Like I could hide it from you."

"Don't you worry, Kenneth. Dorothy will be back for good in like, twenty days max! As soon as they get the security footage from Byte 7 sorted, she's gonna hit Everett's mom and Heather with a lawsuit."

As the other man in the picture, Kenneth should have felt a twinge of joy at the news.

But his concern overshadowed everything else.

"Dorothy could be in real danger."
