The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1163

Downstairs, Jeffrey paced back and forth like a cat on a hot tin roof.

He was making Everett dizzy with all his walking!

"You could walk a marathon, and Karen would still be mad."

It wouldn't change a thing.

"Well, she's not your wife, so of course you're chill!" Jeffrey said, his handsome face on the verge of tears. "Karen's not like Dorothy, man. I don't have that kind of spot in her heart!"

Everett glanced at him, arms crossed, leaning against his car. "Well, that's because Dorothy's heart is pretty much occupied by me."

"..."

Jeffrey couldn't help but give his friend a glare.

Even now, the guy was flaunting his love life!

Everett's phone beeped, and Jeffrey immediately went over to see.

"It's from Dorothy, check it out!"

Everett opened the message, which read:

"Karen's set on the divorce. She's got her reasons, and I can't argue with that."

"This is bad. Why isn't Dorothy backing me up?"

Jeffrey glanced at Everett. "I've got to go up there! I can't just wait for her to divorce me!"

This time, Everett didn't stop him, simply texting Dorothy back.

"Jeffrey's headed up. Let them sort it out. Come down and steer clear of the drama, I'm worried about you."

"Okay."

...

Loud knocking echoed outside, but Karen didn't react, just kept watching her movie.
