The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 32

When Everett emerged from his room again, he'd changed into a casual white outfit. The change took years off him, and he now looked like a college kid, ready to hit the court with his basketball.

Dorothy was still trying to figure out how to ditch him. To be seen in public with Everett was too conspicuous. What if they were snapped by paparazzi?

"Let's go."

"Mr. Lopez, do you think there might be media around or people from our company? Don't you think...it might not look so good if they see us?" She hinted delicately.

However, Everett didn't seem to care. "What's the big deal?"

Dorothy fell silent.

Well, if he said so, all Dorothy could do was go with it.

The supermarket wasn't crowded and had good security. Everyone was busy shopping, and hardly anyone was rubbernecking.

Even so, Dorothy deliberately kept some distance from Everett and headed straight to the pork chop section, urging the butcher to hurry up with the weighing.

Finally, with the pork chops in hand, she turned around, ready to tell Everett they could leave, only to find a new face by his side.

Heather.

This was the second time she'd seen her.

Even off work, Heather was dressed in a Chanel cardigan over a couture dress, looking graceful and charming as she chatted with Everett.

The two of them did look like quite a pair.

Dorothy glanced at herself. She was holding a bag of pork chops and dressed in a white tee and jeans, feeling utterly shabby in comparison.
