The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1368

Arriving at the hospital, doctors rushed to examine Dorothy.

For Everett, this was the last place he ever wanted to be again! Everywhere else, he felt in control, capable of influencing outcomes, but not here.

Even with all his wealth and power, it made no difference in this place.

He despised this feeling of helplessness!

After seeing doctors hustle in and out of the emergency room twice, Everett lost his patience. He intercepted one, asking, "How is she doing inside?"

"We're still running tests, Mr. Lopez. Your wife was only brought in less than ten minutes ago; we can't have results just yet!"

"..."

Only ten minutes?

To Everett, it felt like an eternity! Every second was agonizing.

Eventually, Dorothy was escorted out by a doctor.

Seeing her walk out on her own gave Everett some relief.

"How are you?"

Almost instinctively, he moved forward to take her into his embrace.

Dorothy pursed her lips, looking up at him. "Everett... what if I told you we lost the baby? Would you be disappointed?"

In that moment, she could see a flicker of pain in Everett's eyes.

But when he spoke, his voice was soothing, "As long as you're okay, nothing else matters. We... we can try for another baby. Just be safe!"

Dorothy remained silent, prompting an anxious follow-up from Everett.

"Did the doctor tell you we lost it? How could they let you walk out alone?" He bent down to lift Dorothy.

But she gently stopped him, suddenly smiling.

"Everett, I am really pregnant!"
