The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 920

"Everett!" Dorothy felt a shiver run through her entire body.

"I'm here."

"You're just in your thirties! You can't throw away your future because of me! We're from different worlds. I'm just another face in the crowd, but you, you're like the shining star that’s so unique and irreplaceable!"

She wasn't born into expectations. She was devoid of loving parents or a happy childhood, not even the average family life most kids take for granted.

Despite trying hard, she ended up attending just an average high school and university.

Dorothy always thought of herself as too ordinary.

Lost in the crowd and easily replaceable.

But Everett was different. He was the sole heir to the Lopez family, the CEO of Lopez Corporation, and the decision-maker for over a hundred subsidiaries.

How could she ever compare?

Without him, the future of Lopez Corporation could hardly be deemed bright.

"Forget about whether I'm the star or not, I’m giving you this conclusion."

Dorothy didn’t say a word.

"I don't want to hear about the gaps between us. I can't deny the big differences in our social standings. But remember this, if you die, let your soul wait for me just a little bit, and I'll surely come find you."

Dorothy frowned, "Everett..."

"So, do you want us to die together?" he pressed.

"You've lost your mind."

Everett chuckled, "I lost it a long time ago, not just now."

Ever since he had eyes only for Dorothy, Jeffrey had called him crazy. And who in their right mind would take their own mother to court?

Everett didn't deny it. He was crazy to the bone.

Dorothy tried to persuade him to change his mind, but Everett's gaze already conveyed his answer.
