The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 971

Hanging up the phone, Dorothy jogged to her bedroom to grab her laptop.

Once she logged into the Lopez Corporation's system, just as she expected—Her account wasn't deactivated, and all her chat histories were intact.

Seeing her account still labeled as "Dorothy, Project Director" on the screen made her nose tingle, emotions nearly spilling over.

It wasn’t just the account that moved her. She wondered, how many things like this had Everett done behind the scenes? If she hadn’t returned to the project team, she’d never have known about this. He did these things without seeking any acknowledgment.

That was just his way. From the beginning, up to now, he always managed to touch her heart in the most unexpected ways.

Kevin, noticing her account online, sent over the documents.

[Mr. Lopez made it clear just now, you’re not well, so we can't overload you with tasks.]

Dorothy cracked a smile, imagining Everett instructing Kevin with his usual serious, furrowed brow. Despite his hectic schedule, always buried in work, he still found the time to remind Kevin.

[I’m fine, really! He’s just being overprotective! Cooped up at home, I have too much time to overthink everything, might as well dive into work.]

[It's because you snagged a great husband! Man, if I were a woman, I’d totally go after Mr. Lopez!]

Dorothy chuckled at Kevin’s comment. But the line of women eyeing Everett was long, and even if Kevin were a woman, chances were slim he’d even keep his job as a secretary.

Opening the project files, Dorothy compared them to the data before her departure.

The interim project director had actually done a commendable job. Not at all like what Everett had implied.

Dorothy suspected he might have reclaimed the project for her to handle, somewhat forcefully.
