The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 596
After a tiresome day, Karen headed straight to her bedroom to catch some z's.
She wove through a tapestry of bizarre dreams, only to be jostled awake by the persistent knocking of her dad, Derek.
Bleary-eyed, her hand instinctively searched for her phone to check the time, but then it hit her that her phone was busted.
"Karen?" Derek's knocks continued, a steady rhythm against her door.
She quickly ran her fingers through her hair, "Coming, coming!"
Swinging the door open, she found Derek with a box in hand, "Karen, someone dropped this off for you. He said your phone got busted by accident, and this is the replacement."
Karen bit her lips. She knew in a heartbeat it was Jeffrey’s doing. And what did he mean by "by accident"?
"Is it for you?" Derek asked. Sensing her silence, his voice was tinged with caution.
"Yeah, someone wrecked my phone and mentioned something about a replacement." She took the box without ceremony.
After all, it was indeed Jeffrey’s fault, and he wasn’t hurting for cash. But she was.
A new phone would set her back a few hundred bucks.
"That nearly gave me a heart attack. I thought it was some scam," Derek chuckled; he didn’t give much thought about it.
Karen offered a few laughs in return before taking the new phone into her room.
For now, she could set up her WhatsApp and the likes.
Unboxing it, she found the latest, most expensive model from the Apple store.
But the film had already been peeled off.
"A second-hand phone?!"
Her brows knitted in displeasure, but upon booting it up, she realized it was new—her card had already been installed.
Had Jeffrey taken her smashed phone with him when he left? That was the only way her card could have ended up with him.
Too flabbergasted at the time, Karen hadn't noticed.
She powered on the device, logged into her ID, and began downloading her go-to apps. Before she could even get WhatsApp running, the phone rang.
With her contacts yet to be transferred, the caller was unknown.

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...
