The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1285

I never thought I'd come in handy for something else at a crucial moment.

Everett reached out to take it.

He could never rain on Dorothy's parade. Whenever he faced her, rejection was simply not in his vocabulary.

"Where do you wanna go?"

"Havenbrook City." Dorothy wasn't naive; she had thought this through!

Roaming around Eldorria City was risky business!

She couldn't let Everett's meticulously planned operations go to waste just because she felt like having a little fun.

So, leaving Eldorria City and donning a disguise should do the trick.

"Heading back to school?"

Everett hit the nail on the head.

Dorothy nodded, "Remember that diner we used to go to? The owner's still rooting for us to end up together! Imagine, you and I haven't been in the same frame ever since. I wanna tell her that our connection hasn't been severed."

That place was also a testament to Everett and Dorothy's relationship.

"Alright."

Dorothy walked over and held his hand, "Imagine her surprise when we walk in hand in hand."

"Not really."

"Why not?"

A smile played on Everett's lips, "Because she knows what's in my heart. Winning you back was only a matter of time."

He clasped Dorothy's hand, his voice deep, "Once this is all over, let's get married."

"Deal! You better throw me a grand wedding, this time, no regrets."

...

The whole antidote situation had been weighing heavily on both Everett and Dorothy's hearts, even though they tried their best not to show it.

Everett was worried, ridden with guilt.
