The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1130

Everett did everything in his power to ensure Dorothy was safe from harm! Didn't she tell you? Everett started seeing things that weren't there, passed out, and ended up in the hospital. That's because he tricked Quincy into believing he fell out of love with Dorothy. Only then did Quincy agree to give Dorothy the antidote, but instead, she poisoned Everett himself.

Before anyone kicks the bucket, the cops can't really sniff out anything fishy.

The thing is, once the poison's in your system, it only shows its ugly head when it strikes. Otherwise, it's like trying to find a ghost – absolutely undetectable.

But Quincy, she wouldn't let Dorothy die. No way.

However, Dorothy's gonna be put through the wringer with this poison – hallucinations, dizziness, you name it. It's all up in the air.

Even Quincy can't guarantee if this poison will leave any lasting damage on the body.

Seeing Karen's face turn ghostly pale.

Jeffrey rushed over to hold her, "Babe, Everett's close to pulling this off. Let's not mess up his plan, alright? If it's for Dorothy's sake, step back and pretend you're none the wiser!"

"But...but doesn't this mean it's a life for a life? Dorothy might be saved, but what about Everett?"

"It was his choice, and all we can do is stand by him."

Jeffrey was a million times reluctant to let Everett sacrifice himself for Dorothy.

But what could he do?

He couldn't persuade him otherwise and there really was no other way out.

Karen felt like she was in a bad place, her mind a complete blank.

She had imagined a lot, even after overhearing Jeffrey and Everett's conversation, she never imagined the truth would be this twisted!

This...

This was utterly nonsensical!
