The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 202

"I... I've lost everything... everything..."

As Dorothy finished uttering these sad words, she started to fall backward, losing consciousness.

Thankfully, Kenneth had been watching out for her. He outstretched his hand at her back just in time to keep her from falling.

Without wasting a moment, he scooped her up in his arms and sprinted towards the nurse's station. "Doctor! Where’s the doctor?! Someone's fainted here!"

...

Everett couldn't find his phone, which immediately gave him an uneasy feeling.

He was about to leave the room when he saw his father standing at the door, accompanied by Amanda's primary physician, who had taken care of her when she was abroad.

“Where are you off to? Your mother is hanging by a thread, and you want to leave?”

“I need to find my phone.” Everett replied while frowning slightly.

“Your phone?! Can’t whatever it is wait until your mother is stable?!” Jonathan stood firm and blocked the doorway with his imposing figure.

The doctor standing beside him chimed in. “Indeed, Mr. Lopez, your mother’s condition is critical. She could wake up at any moment, or... she might not wake up at all."

"I just need to make a call, then I'll be back." Everett wasn't worried about work. Kevin could handle that. He was worried that Dorothy might be upset if she couldn’t reach him.

“Do you have any idea who your mother despises the most in this world? Don't think I don't know who you're planning to call! I won't allow it!"

"I wasn't asking for your permission." With that, Everett tried to push past the pair.
