The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Chapter 48



“I’m not afraid of being seen. I’m afraid of misunderstanding our relationship”

Ever since Everett entered the business world and made a name for himself, there hadn’t been any juicy gossip about him. The only piece of scandal might be something about him and Heather

Now, if people started spreading rumors about him taking a female assistant out on business trips and acting all chummy, it could stir up a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Anyway, she was with Kevin, so she wouldn’t be far from him, and she certainly wouldn’t get lost in Havenbrook.

“Why should we fear what people might guess about our relationship? Everett said.

They were a married couple who just hadn’t gone public yet. Why did they have to fear rumors?

But when Dorothy heard this, she took it differently

Was Everett being deliberately close with her, even in public? Could it be that he had another argument with Heather and was trying to provoke her? NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

She found herself increasingly put off by her role as a pawn in this game.

But she couldn’t avoid it. She had to be prepared at all

After all, Everett came to her, investing money and effort. This was what he wanted.

Dorothy didn’t say anything more. She just turned her gaze out the car window

She hadn’t been back here in five or six years. The last time she came, it was just a quick trip to give up her rented apartment and rush her mother to Elderna City for treatment.

Havenbrook had changed dramatically. It now had towering skyscrapers everywhere, and the IT industry here had soared to great heights

Many tech villages had been built here, and the govemment was fully supporting economic development. There were even more foreigners on the streets after the city started to attract foreign investment

When they arrived at Social Networking Service, Everett was still the center of attention as he led the way.

Dorothy deliberately lagged behind Kevin, whispering, “Before coming, I looked up the shareholders of Social Networking Service. The man in the gray suit following their president is named Edward. His shares in the Social Networking Service changed three times. It seems like he wanted to split from Social Networking Service before, but when he saw the Lopez Corporation was interested, he held onto his shares.”

The timeline matched up perfectly

Kevin followed her gaze and nodded. “Your analysis makes sense. We’ll need to talk to our lawyers and accountants about it later

“Okay”

Because Everett personally came to the Social Networking Service, it attracted quite a lot of attention. So today, he wouldn’t be able to slip away easily.

In the afternoon, Kevin was getting tired and called Dorothy over, “You’re from Havenbrook, right? Any good food around here?”

“Huh? Well, there is… But don’t you have to accompany Everett.. Uh, Mc Lopez, for some socializing?

They seemed to have mentioned going to a hotel for a chat

“Mr. Lopez brought his PR secretary today. Not only will people from the Social Networking Service be coming, but also will leaders. from the Environmental Protection Bureau. I’d better not tag along”

Dorothy finally understood. “I see. Well, let’s go for some pizza then Quick in and out. We can get it done in half an hour, no delay”

Kevin raised his eyebrows in satisfaction. “Mr. Lopez has good reason to value you.”

Such a perceptive assistant, stuck in a subsidiary like the Prosperity Consortium, was a bit of a waste.

Dorothy squinted and smiled, finding Kevin not as stiff and old–fashioned as she had thought. In fact, he smiled a lot more than Everett

After checking a nearby pizza place on her phone, they halled a cab and headed straight there.

Just as they sat down and ordered, Dorothy suddenly sow a figure that was both strange and familiar,

Maxton Sanchez.

Her father
