Dorothy was utterly befuddled.
Did that mean...
"The flowers weren't from Everett?"
"Of course not! You told Mr. Lopez not to send any!"
Dorothy furrowed her perfectly arched brows, her gaze falling upon the large bouquet of roses, "Wait, I don't get it. Why would Everett cancel his hospital appointment for the shots?"
Was there a connection between the two?
It couldn't possibly be that Everett was trying to gain her sympathy by playing the sick card, could it?
No, that didn't make sense. If that were his intention, he wouldn't have kept his illness a secret from her from day one.
"Because he's cramming all his work into his schedule, even using the time for his shots for meetings!"
Dorothy was more befuddled. Was he trying to occupy his mind with work?
Seeing her confusion, Kevin spelled it out, "You still don't get it? Mr. Lopez is trying to cut short his business trip in Liberty City. He’s eager to get back home!"
Only when Dorothy heard this did she find the situation somewhat ludicrous.
"Kevin, aren't you reading too much into this?"
Whether Everett returned home sooner or later, it had nothing to do with her.
"Then why do you think Mr. Lopez is in such a rush?"
"How should I know?"
Kevin sighed on the other end, "Forget it, this is too hard to explain! Just persuade Mr. Lopez to get his shots on time. It's only two more days, anyway. We don't want him getting worse once he's back in the country!"
"I'll talk to him."
After hanging up, Dorothy shot Everett a message on WhatsApp.
[You're skipping your shots again.]

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...
