The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1313

"Absolutely! How can anyone live in a place like this, sweetheart!" The old lady chuckled at her remark. "Not even a proper bathroom in sight, wonder how anyone manages their... you know."

Laughing along, Dorothy added, "Look at me, not thinking straight as usual!"

Waving her hand dismissively, the old lady continued, "I just don't get the young folk these days. Buying up properties and not bothering to do them up or even live in them. Just slap a security camera on there, and for what? Makes you think we're all out to swipe something. And what's there to take? Nothing but dirt and dust."

Of course, she was clueless, but Dorothy was in on the secret!

This had to be the place where Lane hid the antidote.

But...

With an entire block to consider, and assuming it's two apartments per floor, that's twenty-two homes across eleven stories! She couldn't possibly search each one.

Dorothy hesitated.

Should she call Everett now for a thorough search?

As long as the antidote was here, Everett would surely find it. They could search the whole complex without fear.

But the critical issue was... she wasn't entirely sure the antidote was here.

If it wasn't, it wouldn't just mean failing to find the antidote. Revealing that Everett wasn't dead could put Kenneth in danger too!

"Ma'am, do you know anyone who's been inside this block?"

Left with no choice, Dorothy pressed further.
