The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 628

"Actions speak louder than words, babe."

Karen was about to pinch Jeffrey again but her hand was suddenly caught in his firm grip.

"You don't just go grabbing a man's belt without permission."

His voice was a deep, husky whisper that made Karen freeze in surprise.

Jeffrey leaned in close, his breath tickling the fine hairs on her earlobe, "And you can only touch mine."

...

Dorothy was utterly shocked. When they had left Swevia Country, Karen and Jeffrey were at each other like cats and dogs. But as they returned to Eldorria City from Snowfall City, the two were hand in hand at the airport.

"Wow! Aunt Karen, you're not smacking Mr. Turner anymore?" Langston blurted out with a surprised look plastered all over his little face.

He vividly remembered the sound of Karen's slap on Jeffrey’s face during their last dinner together – it echoed!

Such an embarrassing moment being aired like dirty laundry, Jeffrey felt a tad awkward. Hastily, he scooped up Langston and covered his mouth, "What do you know, kiddo? That's how Aunt Karen shows love! Haven't you heard? 'A smack means love, a scold means affection!' The harder the smack, the deeper the love!"

"So, my dad not spanking my mom means he doesn't love her?"

Smile on Jeffrey’s face disappeared in an instant.

Karen was exasperated and pushed him away, "Don't fill the kid's head with nonsense!"

Everett, cradling Abigail, glanced over at the two and softly pulled Dorothy closer, "No need to worry. Jeffrey's serious this time."

"Let's hope so."
