The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1201

"Can you believe she's done nothing but trouble, and here I am worrying about whether she's dead or alive?"

"But the kid's innocent!"

Everett Lopez spread his hands wide, "Not my circus, not my monkeys, why should I care?"

Dorothy Sanchez glared at him, as he pulled her close, "Why do I get the feeling you've turned into such a scoundrel? Who've you been learning from?"

That idea, it's so twisted... who'd even think of something like that?

"You wanna know who I learned it from?"

"Who? Jeffrey Turner?"

"Nope," Everett said, chuckling softly, "But it's related to him."

Dorothy looked up, "Hmm? Don't tell me it's Caren!"

"Of course not! It's that girl who used to hang around Jeffrey... what's her name? Pai something."

"Paige."

"Right! She's the one who inspired me."

Dorothy couldn't help but crack a sarcastic smile.

Boy, he really can come up with anything!

"Wait till Quincy hears about this, she's gonna lose her mind." Dorothy could already imagine the look on Quincy's face.

Everett gently patted her head.

"And do you know how crazy I went when I found out you were poisoned?"

"..."

"And here you are, worried about what Quincy will do! If she dies, it's her own fault."

If it weren't for the antidote not being secured, Everett would've gladly sent her packing to the pearly gates himself!

Dorothy laughed helplessly, "Have you noticed something?"

"Hmm?"

"The women who fall for you... they don't seem to end up well."
