Her mother actually called Kenneth directly?
Dorothy's eyebrows were about to tangle into a knot. A wave of anger in her chest was on a rampage, threatening to burst out!
The feeling of being controlled and coerced in everything was really infuriating her.
"You just went and contacted him without even telling me?! I already told you he's really busy. He only agreed to save your dignity!"
"Are you questioning me?" Bella's temper flared up on the other end. "Who do you think I'm doing all this for?! You just went and got married without even telling your own mother! I should be the one pissed off here! I just want him to do more for you, to spend more time with you. What's wrong with that?!"
Dorothy slammed the phone down, the loud bang echoing in the room.
There it was again.
All for her own good!
But what did it mean to be for her own good? Was it whatever she thought was good?
Dorothy tried to reassure herself, not wanting to be affected by those things. After all, her mom’s upcoming surgery was the primary concern.
After a moment's pause, she called Kenneth.
Soon, a soothing and warm voice came through.
"I was just about to call you. How come a gentleman named Kevin contacted me today?"
"It's like this, because your project is a key one. The company, to be safe, decided to assign a more competent person to communicate with you."
Kenneth chuckled, "I think your capability is already enough."
"Thanks for the compliment." Dorothy hadn't forgotten how he helped her with the water the previous night. "And thanks for last night! I was in such a rush for the meeting that I didn't get a chance to thank you properly."
"That was nothing. It was just a piece of cake." Kenneth had guessed the purpose of her call. It definitely wasn't to chat about such trivial things. "About your mom's surgery, I've agreed to be there."

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...
