The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 941

The moment Kenneth caught sight of Dorothy walking in, it was as though a spark had ignited within his eyes.

But before he could even muster a greeting, his gaze fell upon Everett, who trailed closely behind her.

So, they've reconciled, he thought.

She was, after all, meant to be with that man.

"Hey everyone." Dorothy greeted everyone present with a smile, then made her way back to stand beside Everett.

Ever so obediently.

Everett casually draped his arm over her shoulder, a silent declaration of his claim on her.

This halted Kenneth in his tracks. He retracted the step he had begun towards Dorothy, and he resigned himself to stand still.

Jeffrey, noticing Everett, excused himself from his in-laws and approached.

"Dorothy, Everett and I need to have a word." He said.

"Go ahead! I'll just be here," Dorothy responded with a smile, thinking they were about to discuss some work-related matters and not dare to intrude.

Everett pursed his lips and whispered to her, "Stay right here and don't go anywhere. I'll be right back."

"Okay."

Once Jeffrey had led Everett to a secluded stairwell in the hospital corridor, he inquired, "What's going on with Dorothy?"

"It's Quincy," Everett revealed, seeing no need to hide the truth from Jeffrey.

Jeffrey froze, a look of disbelief spreading across his face as he asked, "Are you sure it's her?"

"She confessed," Everett replied. There was no one else but Quincy who could target Dorothy, and also target her with such capability.

"If someone targeted Karen, you'd do the same."

Jeffrey paused. He was at a loss for words. He understood, but it didn't ease his concern.

He just felt Everett was cornered!

He had spent his best years chasing Dorothy, and now that they were finally together, his parents were causing chaos. And with the lawsuit involving his parents not yet resolved, Quincy pops up.

Without Dorothy, Everett wouldn't be in this situation. Without Dorothy, no one could stand against him.

"If Quincy can concoct an antidote, I'll have someone work on finding a solution too. There's always a way out." Everett said.

"But you're at Quincy's mercy until then, right?"

Everett's response was firm, "I can't let anything happen to Dorothy."
