The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 312

In any case, Lane had already set the stage, so Dorothy's words were as good as law.

"Really? Yay!" Natalia threw her hands in the air in a victory sign, then tucked into her food with renewed vigor.

Dorothy glanced at Emmett, who seemed a bit less guarded than before, yet his cautious demeanor was evident.

In the corporate world, people like Emmett were more likely to make great strides than the carefree Natalia.

After they finished their meal, Dorothy showed them around the neighborhood before heading back to the hotel.

She initially thought of taking a breather before resuming work, but Emmett's paperwork had already arrived, making her feel like a less than enthusiastic leader.

With no other choice, she picked up her laptop and headed to the small conference room in the hotel that she had previously booked.

It was more convenient for the trio to work there rather than hold meetings in any one of their rooms.

As she passed the hotel lobby, she was about to call Natalia when a familiar figure caught her eye.

But as soon as she blinked, the figure disappeared.

"She overdid it with the spicy food, and now her stomach's upset. I told her to come down as soon as possible."

"Is it serious? Should we take her to the hospital?"
