The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1577

"Is this Martin from Feather-Tech Company?"

"Oh..."

Dorothy noticed his pensive look and quickly snapped back, holding her ear as a reminder, "Don't start with your petty grudges again! It was just some polite chit-chat during the negotiations. Come on, at my age, who would be eyeing me?"

"How did Abigail hear about it?"

"She just happened to visit me at Trust-E Investments to deliver some paintings."

Lately, she had taken a liking to landscape art, so she had her daughter paint a few pieces to hang in her office.

Everett didn't say anything, but his mind was clearly elsewhere.

When Dorothy took out the clothes, he immediately took them from her hands and laid them out on the table.

Even after all these years, the Bay Residence had never hired a maid; they always found time to do the chores themselves.

Everett's suit and shirt were always ironed by Dorothy herself.

No matter how busy she was, she always made time to ensure he had neatly pressed clothes to wear every day.

"Hey, speaking of which! I noticed this morning you changed the shareholder for our branch in Anglonia?"

"Yeah." Everett folded the ironed clothes and stored them in the closet.

Dorothy was quick to catch on.

"Changed it to Langston's name?"

"Mhm."

"Everett! I've told you, let's not meddle in Langston and Felicity's business and force the kids into making choices! Why won't you listen?"

Everett spread his hands, innocence written all over his face.

"I haven't done anything! It's my company, transferring it to my own son. What could Jeffrey possibly find wrong with that?"

"...But Felicity works at that company! It's obvious what you're up to."

"I never intended to hide it." He wrapped an arm around his wife's waist with a smirk, "Our Langston, no matter where he works, it's still work, right? It just so happens that he's needed there! And if the branch's profits go up and he wins over his lady, it's killing two birds with one stone!"
