The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 45

Everett spotted Dorothy just as she was about to duck out of sight.

"Dorothy."

His voice was deep and magnetic, and his tone was steady.

Since she had failed her attempt at hide and seek, Dorothy had to brace herself and march over. "Mr. Lopez, Ms. Heather."

"We'll head out now." The moment she came over, Everett slid into the car.

Heather waved and gave Dorothy a friendly smile. "Take care on the road. We'll discuss our thing when you're back from your trip, Everett."

"Uh-huh."

Only after Heather turned to leave did Dorothy get into the car.

She sneakily eyed Everett, wondering what Heather meant by "our thing."

"Tired?" Everett loosened his tie and unbuttoned the top of his shirt.

From Dorothy's angle, she could catch a glimpse of the tattoo on his collarbone.

"It was okay. Kevin didn't dump too much work on me."

"If the workload gets too much, tell him." Everett had brought her to the head office to thrive, not to work herself to death.

Dorothy nodded, only to be interrupted by her phone's ring.

New friend request.

‘KN’ wanted to add her as a friend.

Who was this?

Hesitant, Dorothy accepted the request.

Before she could wonder too long, her phone rang. It was Karen.

"My cousin added you on Facebook. He said he had a research project he wanted to discuss with you when you're free."

This girl was relentless in her matchmaking efforts.
