The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1278

Although I'm not privy to Quincy's final words to Lane, one thing I'm sure of is that Lane got his hands on the antidote before Quincy breathed her last.

This realization allowed Kenneth to breathe a sigh of relief...

The knowledge that there was still an antidote out there was comforting.

As long as it existed, there was hope for Dorothy.

"How's your cooking?" Kenneth was momentarily taken aback when Lane caught up to him from behind.

"It's mediocre, not too shabby but nothing to write home about," he replied casually as he picked something up.

But when he reached the kitchen counter, he noticed something amiss.

"You forgot the spices."

How could one cook without spices, even if they had all the ingredients?

Lane had also just remembered.

He glanced at Kenneth, then at the items on the counter, seemingly hesitating.

Eventually, his hunger won over his logic.

"Write down whatever you need, and I'll go get it."

There was no way Lane was letting Kenneth step outside! What if he revealed their location, or tried to contact someone?

He still couldn't fully trust Kenneth.

"Fine by me." Kenneth seemed completely unbothered, almost relieved that Lane was the one going shopping, sparing him the hassle of going out himself.

"Need anything else, just tell me." Since Lane hadn't anticipated having Kenneth over, his preparations were only meant for one.

Now that there was an additional mouth to feed, he had to shop for more.

Might as well make the trip worthwhile.

"I'm good, brought my own change of clothes."

"So, just food and spices?"
