The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 319

Dorothy returned to the table and found Gabriel ingratiatingly filling his boss' glass with wine. After seeing her, he immediately moved aside to give her a seat next to the boss.

She was no stranger to such workplace flirting and decided to ignore it, taking her original seat instead.

Gabriel glanced at his boss. He was glad to see he wasn't upset, then he turned to Dorothy. “Ms. Sanchez, our boss, Hayden, has been singing your praises. He's impressed by your charisma and is certain of your professional capabilities. It’s quite an achievement for someone your age to be a project director.”

“Hayden is too generous. I’m honored.” Dorothy laughed and raised her glass. “A toast to you, Hayden.”

Hayden was only too happy to accept, and she nodded enthusiastically. “Cheers!”

Emmett, watching the scene, was sure that Dorothy would not be sober by the end of the night. He quietly texted Natalia, asking her to arrange a car to wait outside the restaurant, ready to take Dorothy back to the hotel.

“We had a brief discussion about the collaboration details with Ms. Sanchez earlier today, and we've seen East Star Enterprises' sincerity.” Gabriel steered the conversation back to work.

Dorothy understood his subtle dissatisfaction with the terms offered by East Star Enterprises, but she had to pretend otherwise as the negotiation was still ongoing. “Indeed, you've seen it. My original business trip was in Everglow City, but our boss specifically sent me to Havenbrook City. He wanted to avoid any miscommunication that could potentially upset everyone.”

Hayden nodded emphatically and refilled Dorothy’s empty wine glass.

After seeing this, Gabriel laughed. “Ms. Sanchez, you should try this wine. Hayden brought it especially for you. He wouldn’t share this with just anyone.”
