It was as if Karen had been caught red-handed by flirting with other men outside of her marriage.
"So that’s settled. Let’s go!" Jeffrey took her hand and was ready to lead her out.
Karen, scared that Jeffrey might start another argument, struggled briefly, "Can't I just go by myself? Don't you have work to do?"
"Work's done for today! Everett only left me in charge of the meeting before he took off. Everything else can wait and I stayed up all night finishing up. Taking care of you is my priority right now."
He was eager to marry her and experience the family happiness that Everett was enjoying now.
Karen rolled her eyes speechlessly. Then she suddenly remembered something, "Left? Where did Everett go?"
"He took Dorothy and the kids to Snowfall City. He's not in Eldorria City, so even if you wanted to complain, it's no use."
Jeffrey pulled Karen's cellphone from his suit pocket and handed it back to her with a grin.
Karen was dumbfounded.
"You took my phone to work?"
"Yeah, didn't want you finding it at home."
"You really are something..."
...
Dorothy had never been to Snowfall City before.
The air was dry, and by autumn, the weather had already turned cold. The breeze was chilly, unlike in Eldorria City where you could still wear a T-shirt or maybe just throw on a light jacket at most.
When they disembarked from the plane, Kevin had already arranged for someone to pick them up from the airport.
Seeing Dorothy shiver, Everett immediately took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders.
Dorothy looked up to meet his gaze, "I'm not that cold. You wear it."
"I'm feeling hot."
Dorothy’s got nothing to say about this.

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...
