The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 352

"Lane, imagine this. A little boy shows up out of the blue, claiming to be your son. You get a DNA test, and, lo and behold, he's yours. How'd you react?"

Definitely baffled.

He'd been with more women than he could count, some whose names he couldn't even remember. He couldn't be one hundred percent certain that none of them had ulterior motives.

"But hasn't Everett always been a saint? Can he be compared to me?" Lane chuckled. "Who knows? Maybe he's got a wilder side than both of us combined."

"That's impossible! Ever since he broke up with Dorothy, he's practically been living at the office. He’s always online on the company software."

"Does that necessarily mean he couldn't have done it?"

Jeffrey raised his voice. "Hey! Why do I get the feeling you've got a beef with Everett?"

Even this oblivious man, Jeffrey, could sense it.

"I'm just stating the facts." Lane smiled. "Alright, let me know if the kid turns out to be his son. I could use a popcorn moment."

"Screw you!" Jeffrey said, then hung up.

He was about to call Everett when Heather started bombarding him with calls, like a woman possessed.

Jeffrey didn't want to answer, but he accidentally did.

Heather's anxious voice came through. "Where are you? I... I think I'm having a heart attack..."

"What?" Jeffrey was taken aback. "Since when do you have heart disease?"

"Never mind that now. Can you come pick me up and take me to the hospital?"

Jeffrey wanted to agree, but the kid was still sleeping. Should he wake him up now?

"Jeffrey... are you going to abandon me too?" Heather added. Her voice sounded genuinely distressed, as if she could faint any second.
