The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 656

"No worries," Dorothy said, tugging at the corner of her lips. "Kenneth, there’s less than two weeks left. I don't want to have any regrets."

"I get it."

"Thanks for understanding."

Dorothy chuckled. "There's a stir over at Byte 7. You'll still need to keep me posted, okay? I appreciate it."

"Sure, no problem at all. I'm happy to keep an eye on things for you."

After hanging up the phone, Dorothy took a deep breath before heading into the ward.

Hospitals were not exactly playgrounds for kids, so Everett had practically cleared out the local toy stores, all so his children could have a little joy.

As Dorothy pushed the door open, she saw Everett meticulously stacking blocks, with Abigail clapping happily beside him, exclaiming, "Daddy, you're amazing! It's so tall!"

Langston snorted, cookie in hand, glancing over briefly before returning his gaze to the computer screen.

Sighing, Dorothy moved the computer further away.

"Langston, do you not care about your eyesight? Abigail, no more sweets for you today!"

Both kids pouted, then turned their puppy-dog eyes to Everett.

Everett shrugged his shoulders. "I'm no match for her."

Dorothy walked back to her bed and sat down.

Everett stood up and approached her, raising an eyebrow. "You called Kenneth back, didn't you?"

"How did you know..."

She cut herself off, realizing she had been baited.

"You don't have to hide it from me. I'm not stopping you."

He might not have said anything, but the topic was out there now, so she might as well clear the air.

"Why did you seal off the cemetery? Kenneth often helps me by cleaning the gravestone, showing respect on my behalf."
