In the hospital, Paige had just coaxed her little girl to sleep when she sent a message to Huxley.
[She should be waking up in a couple of hours. You guys can come over for the paternity test then.]
It wasn’t long before Huxley replied with a succinct [Okay.]
While Iris snoozed, Paige had hoped to catch some shut-eye too, but her phone buzzed to life.
It was Arthur, the guy Karen had seen at the last party, who had been relentlessly pursuing Paige.
“Arthur, you don’t need to call me anymore. I never had feelings for you. The only reason I went out with you was to make Jeffrey jealous.”
“Where are you now?”
“That’s none of your business.”
“I swung by your place, and your folks said you haven’t been home for days. What the heck are you up to?” Arthur pressed on, undeterred by her frosty tone.
Paige frowned and decided to lay it all out, “My daughter has been ill, and I’m at the hospital looking after her. Yes, I have a daughter! Can you stop bothering me now?”
“Which hospital are you at? General Hospital or the City Hospital?”
“It’s none of your business!”
She hung up abruptly and when she looked up, she saw a tall figure standing at the entrance of the ward.
Jeffrey.
He had come.
The embers in Paige's otherwise dull eyes ignited, “Jeffrey! Are you here to see Iris?”
“I’m here to find out whose kid she really is.” Jeffrey's eyes were filled with rage and scorn, fixed intently on her.
All because of this woman! She had caused such a rift between him and Karen.
How could he not be furious?

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...
