The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 126

Dorothy knew Kenneth was just trying to help her out. But she couldn't give him anything in return.

Seeing her reluctance, Kenneth subconsciously reached out to grab her wrist.

Suddenly, Dorothy felt a pull from behind her. She stumbled and fell into a solid, muscular embrace.

She looked up and was taken aback.

It was Everett. What was he doing here?

"No need to bother yourself, Mr. Nelson. I can take her."

Kenneth shot a glance at Dorothy, then at Everett. "Are you Dorothy's boyfriend?"

"No, he's not." Dorothy quickly denied it.

Time froze for a few seconds. Everett moved his lips but said nothing.

Kenneth wanted to insist, but Dorothy was already whisked away by Everett.

They had been driving for a while when she finally spoke, "You can drop me off at the intersection up ahead."

"I've already arranged for the company's audit department to investigate this. You can take a break for a few days."

"The company's investigation is their business. I'm gathering evidence to prove my innocence." She wasn't going to sit around waiting for someone else's verdict.

Everett's thick eyebrows furrowed. His handsome face was adorned with a stern expression.

"I've talked to Heather. She said she didn't do it."

"Of course she would say that! Who would frame someone and then admit to it? Heather is not a fool." Dorothy looked out the window and took a deep breath, not wanting to argue.
