The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 98

"Was it Everett who sent it?"

Dorothy rushed to the door to ask the two bodyguards, but they claimed they didn't know.

She pulled out her phone, thinking about calling Everett to ask, but her fingers hesitated on the dial pad, and she didn't end up making the call.

Even if it was him who sent it, so what?

At most, it was just a consolation gift sent by the boss to the subordinate.

...

In the hotel suite in Verdant City.

That was already the fifth time Everett had checked his phone.

But there was still no news.

Did the stuff he ordered not get delivered to the ward? Or, was it that she simply didn't want to contact him at all?

That woman was usually so cautious, always polite to everyone, but when it came to receiving things from him, there was not a peep!

Finally, his phone rang.

Everett answered it immediately, but it was Jeffrey's voice that came through.

"You answered so fast. Who were you waiting for a call from?"

"I was just using my phone."

Jeffrey, on the other side, wished he could roll his eyes at him, "Don't pretend I don't know. You contacted that little assistant again! Didn’t we agree to test how long it would take her to call and check on you?”

“I just sent some consolation gifts to her mother.”

“So, after sending it, you're waiting for her to contact you?"

Everett's brow furrowed, "Do you have something to say, or can I get back to work?"

"I mean, she's gone this far. It's clear she's not into you. Aren't you going to let go?"
