The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 348

"What was that?" Kevin didn't catch what Everett said.

"Nothing. Just get some rest."

After hanging up the phone, Everett felt like his mind had flung itself into turmoil. He definitely couldn’t sleep now.

He thought about returning to Eldorria City as soon as possible the next day to see if this was all a coincidence or something else.

...

Jeffrey was quite obedient. When Everett asked him to bring the kid to a hotel, he did so.

He glanced at the small figure walking beside him and patted the kid's forehead. "So, Everett really is your dad, huh?"

Langston looked up at him as his eyes blinked. "I don’t know. All I know is that I look a lot like him."

"And what about your mom? What's her name?"

Langston thought for a moment, then shook his head. "I don't know."

"And her surname?"

"I don't know that either."

Jeffrey had hoped to get some information out of the child, but it seemed like the kid knew very little.

“You must know what your mom looks like, right?” He asked curiously, eager to know who else besides Dorothy could have shared a bed with Everett. He realized he didn't know Everett as well as he thought he did.

But it was understandable. After being single for so many years, he thought Everett having some physical needs was normal. As a man, he understood.

“My mom is really beautiful!”

“I don’t doubt that.” Any woman that Everett was interested in would definitely be attractive.

"Hey!" Jeffrey was left speechless. "You make a good point, kid. I like it!"

Jeffrey could guess the story behind this.

It was probably a fleeting romance; the woman realized she was pregnant but was afraid Everett wouldn't want the child, so she secretly gave birth.

It must have all been about money.

If the woman knew her place, she would understand she was not qualified to step into the Lopez family. And if she thought she could rise in status because of her child, the consequences could be ugly.

"Sir, are you going to take me to meet him?"

"You'll meet him tomorrow. He's not in Eldorria City today. He's gone to chase his first love."

After hearing this, Langston's little eyebrows immediately furrowed.
