The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 334

"I've got no chance with her. She wouldn't give Everett the time of day, so what hope do I have?"

"I see your point."

After a short conversation with Jeffrey, Lane hung up the phone. He immediately reached out to Austin. He ordered him to tell Dorothy that there was an urgent matter back in Everglow City that required her attention.

Everett was also in Havenbrook City, and he couldn't afford to give him any opportunities to approach Dorothy.

As he was about to lock his phone, his eyes inadvertently caught a glimpse of a number saved on his phone.

It was Heather's number, which he stole from Jeffrey's phone. But he didn't dial it.

It wasn't time to play his last card yet. He didn't want to escalate things.

...

When Austin called, Dorothy was still worried about the driver. She wanted to meet with him as soon as possible to figure out what had happened and how her drug had been neutralized.

"Dorothy, Everglow City needs you. When can you return?"

"I've almost finished up here, so probably in a day or two. Lane is also in Havenbrook City now; let me check with him."

"Alright!"

After hanging up the phone, Dorothy once again found that the driver had not yet responded to her.

The longer she kept waiting, the more restless she became.

Finally, she received his message.

[How about we meet at Harvest Restaurant at 7 p.m. tonight?]

[Sounds good. I'll bring your receipt.]

She quickly got herself ready, making sure to put the receipt in her purse.
