The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 705

Karen could hear the noise, recognizing that Jeffrey was back. However, she didn't pause in what she was doing, not even for a second.

With only one box left – her clothes - she had to take them with her. Everything else essential for her daily life, including towels, PJs, and kitchenware, was already packed.

"Karen, wait a sec!" Jeffrey hurried over, trying to stop her from reaching for the clothes on the high shelf.

But Karen just pushed him away and continued stuffing her belongings into the suitcase with an impassive face.

"Karen! Can you just listen to me for one minute? I was with Paige last night, sure, but nothing happened, I swear. I just spent the night at the hospital, that's all! What do you think we could've done there?"

"Back off. Don't touch me."

Karen wasn’t having any of it, just kept on packing her clothes.

Left with no choice, Jeffrey tried to pull out the clothes as fast as she could pack them in.

Suddenly, she took a step back, looked up at him and said, "Fine, I don't want them."

With that, Karen stormed out the door, while Jeffrey was still wrestling with the clothes.

"Hey! Wait!"

He was at his wit's end!

Jeffrey quickly stretched his long legs to catch up with her and managed to intercept her at the front gate of the villa.

"Karen, believe me, nothing happened with Paige last night! You see, I'm still wearing the same clothes I left in yesterday!"

He hadn’t expected her reaction to be so volatile. If he had known, he'd have steadied her first, not blurted out about being at the hospital with Paige, and then eased into the events of the previous night.

"Don't lay a finger on me, you disgust me," Karen glared at him, still completely not receptive to his explanations.
