The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 27

Somehow, Dorothy just couldn't bear to call him this name, so she pretended not to hear him this time.

They arrived at the hospital. She grabbed her purse, ready to bid Everett goodbye and get out of the car.

But he suddenly grabbed her wrist.

"Wait. I'll go with you."

Everett was going to meet her mother?

Dorothy quickly waved her hands. "You don't have to waste your time. My mom is much better now."

Before she finished speaking, Everett was already standing in front of her with flowers and gifts from the back seat.

"Let's go."

Dorothy was helpless.

With no other choice, Dorothy had to take Everett into the hospital, all the while thinking about how she was going to explain Everett's identity to her mother.

Now at the door of the ward, Dorothy hoped her mother was asleep, so the problem would be solved easily. Unfortunately, as soon as the door opened, her mother was chatting with the nurse quite spiritedly, in fact.

"Dorothy." Bella was naturally happy to see her daughter, but when her gaze fell on the tall man behind her, her eyes became a bit heavy.

Knowing her mother's temper, Dorothy was afraid that if Bella gave Everett a hard time, it would cause a disaster. So she quickly tried to smooth things over. "Mom, this is…"

"Is this your boyfriend?"

Bella interrupted her directly. Her tone was not friendly.

Dorothy instinctively denied it, fearing that her mother would say something shocking.
