The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 324

Heaven knew how much Lane regretted sending Dorothy over here.

He knew all too well what kind of men lurked in the business world, and after adding Dorothy's attractive features to the mix, their eyes must have nearly popped out of their sockets.

"If they dare lay a finger on Ms. Sanchez, I swear I'll make Verity Holdings Limited pay big time!" After hanging up the phone, Lane immediately got in his car and headed for Verity Holdings Limited.

He didn't even bother to give them a heads-up. He wanted to catch them off guard. At this point, Lane wished he could shut down Verity Holdings Limited completely. If only he had the power.

Lane furrowed his thick eyebrows.

In this moment, he realized how much he fell short compared to Everett.

If Everett were here, with his capabilities, shutting down Verity Holdings Limited would be a piece of cake.

...

The search for Dorothy was in full swing.

However, she was in a hotel room, sleeping in until almost noon.

The moment her consciousness returned, the splitting headache from the hangover and the soreness throughout her body hit her all at once. The pain was so intense that it felt like her temples were about to explode.

"Hiss…" She tried to push herself up with her hands, but her arms were trembling.

Dorothy felt puzzled.

She could understand why she had a hangover. Because she had a lot of drinks last night. But why was her body aching? It felt as if she had been in a physical fight.

When she finally regained some strength, Dorothy took a look at her unfamiliar surroundings.

This wasn't her hotel!

Dorothy's heart sank. In that moment, she thought of all possible scenarios, especially when she noticed that she was dressed in different clothes.

They were completely different from the ones she wore last night.

KNOCK, KNOCK.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Dorothy quickly adjusted her clothes and, with wobbly legs, got off the bed to open the door.

"Hello, would you like your breakfast now?"

It was a hotel staff member.
