The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1073

"Alright, so if Abigail and Langston are tagging along with you, does that mean I'm free to look for someone else?"

That one sentence nearly had Everett choking on his own breath.

When he spoke again, his tone was edged with frustration, "Are you that desperate?"

"Yes! I am that desperate," Dorothy admitted boldly, her gaze fixed on him. "Since you can talk about breaking up and leaving us to marry whoever we want in the future, then I'm going to find a new boyfriend, right here, right now! Any guy will do! I'll make sure to get married to someone else before you tie the knot with Quincy!"

"Don't forget, Kenneth is still single."

"Everett, I'm not joking with you. As soon as you marry Quincy, I'll definitely marry—"

"Enough."

Everett cut her off.

His temples were throbbing by now.

"Suit yourself. If Kenneth is willing to marry you, then by all means, go ahead. There's no need to tell me all this."

"..."

"Are we done here? You can leave now."

He turned his back to her, refusing to look at Dorothy any longer.

After a long while, he finally heard her footsteps as she left, and the door closed behind her.

Once he was sure she was gone, Everett immediately took out his phone to call Jeffrey.

"Is Kenneth still in the hospital?"

"Yeah!"

"Find a doctor and tell them Kenneth needs to go abroad for surgery and recovery. Then pick a far-off country and have him stay there for a few months."
