The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 925
He had barely turned around when he saw her slicing her finger with the knife!
Dorothy shrunk a bit under his loud voice, looking down, "I'm sorry, I lied. I just couldn't help myself..."
Everett tossed the knife aside and pulled her into a tight embrace, gently patting her back to comfort her.
"You haven't done anything wrong. It's on me for raising my voice and for not putting the knife away safely. We'll get through your illness together step by step."
"Yeah." She would do her best to cooperate.
After holding her for a while, Everett stood up to grab the first-aid kit to bandage her finger.
The cut wasn't deep, and it hardly bled compared to the injuries Everett had seen her endure, but he still applied the antiseptic with great care, asking if it hurt.
Dorothy felt like she was on the edge of a cliff, too resigned to even struggle. Nevertheless, he was desperately calling her back! That made her feel like she couldn't justify it even if she wanted to jump.
...
As night fell, Dorothy took the medication the shrink prescribed and soon felt drowsy.
Everett waited until she was truly asleep before leaving the bedroom.
"Dad, is Mommy's sickness not getting better?" Langston looked troubled when he saw him, hesitantly asking.
Everett ruffled his hair, "Why do you ask?"
"It's just... Mommy feels both close and yet so far away," Langston couldn't quite articulate his feelings, but that's how he felt.
"She'll get better. With Dad here, she won't be sick forever."
Langston nodded, "Then Abigail and I will be good and not make Mommy mad. Whatever Mommy asks, we'll do."
"That's my boy." Everett stayed in the kids' room until both children were asleep before heading back to the living room.
He glanced at his phone and noticed a missed call.

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...
