Dorothy was fast asleep, blissfully unaware of the world around her.
But Kenneth, as if he had heard her silent slumber, felt compelled to send a message her way. His text, delivered through WhatsApp, pierced the silence.
Ding!
Even in her deep sleep, Dorothy sensed the disturbance and, groggily, reached for her pocket.
Everett frowned, snatched the phone, and quickly silenced it.
"Go back to sleep. It's nothing important."
"Mmm."
Dorothy didn't even open her eyes, just murmured an acknowledgment and drifted back into her dreams.
Everett lit up her phone screen to find a voice message from Kenneth.
[Hey, I was thinking... Why don't I drop off breakfast for you two in the morning? That way you don't have to cook for Karen, and you can catch a little extra sleep!]
Even Everett had to admit, Kenneth was one thoughtful guy. Trying to weasel his way in with a breakfast offer? If Dorothy nodded along, would lunch and dinner invitations be far behind?
He stared at the screen, almost wishing he could punch through it with his glare.
His fingers danced across the keyboard, typing out a response. But just before hitting send, he paused and deleted everything.
No, that wasn't right.
Shouldn't he be glad that Dorothy had someone like Kenneth to take such good care of her? Otherwise, she might end up with some random Joe, good or bad, who knows?
At least Kenneth’s intentions were genuine.
...
Karen, on the other hand, was skeptical about the paternity report.

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...
