"Karen, it's urgent. Super urgent! Can you somehow get Mr. Lopez's phone number?"
Dorothy had deleted Everett's contact. She even left the online group they shared, so the only person she could turn to now was Karen.
The voice on the other side was clearly still groggy from sleep. "Who?!"
"Everett."
"If you're sleepwalking, go back to sleep."
"I don't have time to explain. It's really urgent!"
The project partner's supervisor had signed the contract and left the country. She couldn't possibly ask him to return just to sign another contract with her.
Karen sensed her seriousness, sat up in bed, and said, "I can't get his number, but you can go find him in his room, right?"
Right!
Dorothy quickly hung up the phone, threw on a random piece of clothing, and ran towards the hotel's presidential suite.
However, when she got to that floor, she was stopped right out of the elevator by the CEO's secretary.
"Hello, I need to see Mr. Lopez."
The secretary looked her up and down and asked sternly, "Do you have an appointment?"
"No."
The secretary was straightforward. "Then please leave."
"Can't you bend the rules a bit? Just pass a message for me. Tell him Dorothy urgently needs to see him; he'll definitely want to see me."
But the secretary completely ignored her plea.
Just as Dorothy was feeling defeated, a deep voice came from the suite.

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...
