"If you're not happy, I'll just delete her."
Saying that, Everett reached out his hand.
Dorothy quickly stopped him, "No, wait! What are you doing? I was just... looking, that's all. Don't read too much into it."
Not to mention that Everett's hand hadn't fully healed yet and that he would still need Quincy’s help, but thinking about the future... who knows when they might need Quincy's help again?
If he deleted Quincy from his contacts, how awkward would it be if that got out? How would they face each other then?
"After she stitched me up, she's leaving the country. She said she's worried about whether I'm doing my exercises correctly for my tendon recovery, and also worried about the expertise of the doctors here. So, she added me on WhatsApp, telling me to send her a photo of the wound in a few days."
Everett rarely spoke in such a long, hurried explanation.
Dorothy nodded. "Dr. Quincy is very responsible. You should really listen to her."
He's the CEO of a corporation, after all. His hands are crucial to him!
"Dorothy, if you're not happy, don't keep it to yourself. Tell me."
"I'm really okay," Dorothy said, almost helplessly, "Everett, it's your choice! Just like I advocate for my own freedom, you know? Freedom means not being interfered with."
He didn't want that kind of freedom. Nor did he want to give Dorothy that freedom.
After dinner with Karen, Jeffrey took her back to continue with her pregnancy care.
Knowing they were having a daughter, Jeffrey acted like he wanted to vet every boy in the world suitable for his daughter. Hmph, any guy thinking of getting close to his daughter would have to get past him first.
Dorothy watched them get into the car and leave before turning back to Everett.
"I don't feel like seeing the doctor today. Can we reschedule?"
Although Everett hadn't explicitly mentioned taking her to see a doctor, Dorothy had a hunch.

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...
