The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 919
"Um, didn’t you fall asleep?" Dorothy was startled by Everett's sudden movement.
Everett opened his eyes, and even in the dim moonlit room, he could precisely lock onto her gaze.
"Answer my question."
"I was heading to bed."
As Dorothy turned to leave, he caught her wrist as his tall figure rose abruptly from the couch, "Tell me, I want to hear it."
"Just because you want to hear it means I have to answer?"
"Yes." Everett's tone was unusually commanding when he forced a direct response from her.
Dorothy knew she couldn't dodge this, and after a moment, her demeanor softened slightly, "You want my trust, and I can't give it."
"What if you don't have to trust me? Can you be at peace by my side then?" he asked.
She frowned, "Everett, you have too much in your hand and that brings you to the height others wouldn't dare dream of in their lifetime! But being with me, you'd lose so much! You'd even... bear the stigma of being an unfilial son for life!"
"But…"
"Let me finish."
"Alright."
Dorothy took a deep breath, eyes downcast as she said, "I'm torn, too. I know if I give up clearing my mother's name, I could gain the approval of the Lopez family; I could be with you and also our kids. But... wouldn't that be like stepping over my mom's body to enter the Lopez family? I just can't do it!"
She even felt that any slight wavering in her resolve was a sin! Like she'd be damned to the deepest hell!
"You don't need their approval. If I acknowledge you as my wife, that's enough." He claimed.

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...
