The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 649
"Hah." Everett chuckled above her head, "Seems like I'm the one dreaming."
How could it be her?
He'd been harboring this dream for more than a decade. The longer it persisted, the more he dreaded waking up.
"Hmm? What?" Dorothy didn't quite catch that.
Everett, of course, wasn't about to repeat himself. He already felt low enough in front of Dorothy.
"It's nothing. Just wrapped up at work. Where do you wanna go?"
"Is Jeffrey at the office?"
Everett's thick brows furrowed. "Why do you ask about him?"
Dorothy blinked, "Karen mentioned grabbing dinner together, that's why I asked."
"He's there."
"Oh." Dorothy nodded, leaning in closer to Everett with a teasing arch of her eyebrow. "Don't tell me you're getting jealous just because I asked about Jeffrey? He's your buddy!"
"I don't like you snooping around other men."
Dorothy couldn't help but laugh.
She had no idea Everett had such a possessive streak. She used to think he was cool and somewhat detached, not paying her much mind and even giving her plenty of space. Turns out, the aloof act was just an act.
It was convincing, sure, but it must've been exhausting!
"When did you get so sour?"
"If you knew about it earlier, would you have bolted?"
Dorothy thought for a moment, smiling guiltily, "Probably."
The last thing she wanted was someone's overbearing affection or someone trying too hard to make an impression. It felt like being forced to accommodate a stranger in her world, and her first instinct would be to push back.

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...
