The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 337

This must have been Everett's scheme.

Lane took the last drag of his cigarette, then ground it out under his boot before striding towards the car.

TAP, TAP.

He knocked on the window.

The glass rolled down, revealing a face that clearly belonged to a secretary, who was dressed in a sharp suit.

"Can I help you, sir?"

Lane took the opportunity to glance at the backseat, but a divider blocked his view. He was certain that there was someone there.

"Mind if I borrow a light? I need a drag." Lane pulled out his pack of smokes and gave it a little shake.

"Sorry, I don't smoke." Kevin gave him a polite smile and started to roll up the window.

But Lane beat him to the punch and started a new topic. “Is there a big shot in this car? May I ask who it is? I'm also in the business world. I'm the owner of East Star Enterprises. Would it be possible to get acquainted?”

East Star Enterprises?

Wasn't that Dorothy's company?

Kevin reflexively glanced in the rear-view mirror, but he saw no reaction. “My boss is resting. Sorry for the inconvenience.”

"Alright." He was clearly rejected. Lane knew his attempt at small talk had failed.

Just as he was about to turn away, he heard the sound of the car door opening from behind him.

Turning his head, he saw a face that he usually only saw in magazines, now brightly lit in his line of sight.

Everett was extraordinarily dazzling.

Even though he was dressed casually now, his tall figure alone standing there was enough to create an invisible pressure. The aura of nobility and aloofness that permeated his whole being was innate.
