The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 976

She said "It's tough" without a hitch in her voice.

But that didn't begin to cover the endless days and nights.

Dorothy was well aware of her own flaws, especially her penchant for harsh words.

What would he feel after hearing them? Surely, it would be unbearable.

"If you think I've had it tough, just make it up to me."

Dorothy nodded obediently, "Don't worry! Anything I can do to help you at work, I'll definitely give it my all. As for making it up to you in other ways... well, it's tough since you really aren't wanting for anything."

"Who says?"

"So, what are you wanting?"

Everett's gaze fixed on her face, the answer nearly escaping his lips, "You. I'm missing you."

Dorothy didn't avoid his gaze; she met it squarely and then took Everett's hand, "I'm yours, you're not missing anything, you're not wanting for anything."

"Is that a promise?"

"Unless you don't want me anymore."

Everett's body stiffened, pulling her into his embrace, "How could there ever come a day like that?"

Dorothy chuckled a few times, stood up from his embrace, walked over to the executive desk, picked up a pen, and crossed out the one-year mark, writing 'forever' next to it.

"No turning back now?" Everett smiled at her.

After all, Dorothy was always one to have a backup plan.

"I still have one," Dorothy smiled back, "You are my forever backup plan."

Everett raised an eyebrow, "You're quite the sweet talker today."
