The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 339

He wanted to find out who this “runaway” was that had Dorothy so worried and desperate. He found himself wanting to help her, even if she probably didn’t need him.

…

The call that Dorothy had received was indeed from Kenneth.

He said that Langston had run away from home, leaving only a note stating that he was going back to their homeland to look for his mother.

Lane didn’t know what happened to her, and when he asked, she said nothing.

Dorothy naturally wouldn’t reveal more of her secrets to others. Lane already knew about her daughter’s relationship with Everett, so she couldn’t possibly tell him about her son too.

The only ones who knew about her other child were Karen and Kenneth.

Upon reaching the hotel, Dorothy immediately started packing her belongings, preparing to head to the airport.

She needed to go back and discuss plans with Karen. If all else failed, she would immediately fly overseas to find her son.

“What are you doing?” Lane asked.

As soon as she stepped out, she saw Lane still standing at the corner of the entrance.

“Lane, I need to go home.”

“Is your daughter in trouble?” Lane wasn’t stupid. After seeing her so anxious, he could guess what had happened.

Dorothy paused, then nodded. “Yes, so I need to go back. I might need to take a few days off.”

She didn’t know how long it would take to find her son.

“Sure, you can take as long as you need. On one condition: I come with you.”

He wanted to be more involved in Dorothy’s life and interact with her daughter.

But to his surprise, Dorothy immediately refused. “No. She’s very shy.”
