The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 667
The woman spoke with an air of arrogance, but Karen was not one to be trifled with.
Competing with other women was not her thing, but she most certainly was not about to let anyone walk all over her.
"If I'm not mistaken, that guy sitting next to you – he your current boyfriend? Or just a... friend with benefits?"
The woman's face paled. "I don't love him! He's the one chasing after me! I only came because I thought Jeffrey might show up tonight."
"Ah, better to have a stand-in than an empty seat, huh?" Karen chuckled. "I think I'm starting to see why Jeffrey never made you official."
Karen had a way with words that cut deep without resorting to vulgarity.
"You!" The woman was left red-faced and clearly outmatched by Karen’s sharp tongue.
Karen nonchalantly shook the water off her hands, standing beside the woman. Though she was shorter, she carried herself with the stature of someone over six feet tall. "If you're not the chosen one, maybe you should do some self-reflection! Bragging to me about your fling with Jeffrey only proves you're yesterday's news. I knew right away what kind of man Jeffrey was when he chased me. If you think you can make me jealous with that, you're sorely mistaken.”
It would be a lie to say Karen was not bothered at all, but to make a scene with Jeffrey over it? To break up with him? That was out of the question.
Karen had left the restroom and was heading back to the party when the woman called out from behind, "Jeffrey's just playing with you, too! You won't end up any better than me! I bet you two won't even make it to the altar!"
Her voice was loud, but Karen did not even pause in her stride.
Some people are just not worth the energy.
Back in the private room, Jeffrey was being grilled by his buddies about engagement rumors as Karen walked in. He immediately reached out and pulled her into his embrace. "You upset?"
Jeffrey was perceptive enough to pick up on her mood.
"No, just a bit light-headed from the drinks, I guess."
"Should we head home then?"

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...
