The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 39

When Dorothy woke up, Everett had already left.

Since it was the weekend, she got up and cleaned the house after freshening up before heading to the hospital with the food she had prepared.

Upon reaching Ward V1, she saw two men standing at the door. They were the typical bodyguard types you see in TV shows, dressed in black and stone-faced.

As she approached, they blocked her.

"Access to this ward requires the consent of the person inside."

"I'm Bella's daughter."

At first, Dorothy thought this was something the hospital had arranged, but after inquiring, she found out that they were actually Everett's personal bodyguards.

After verifying her identity, she was allowed into the ward.

Bella, seeing her daughter, hurriedly asked, "Who are those two men standing outside? They're so intimidating! Even the doctors had to show their IDs today."

Dorothy put down the lunch box and explained. "The hospital has upped their security since strangers have been coming into your ward."

"But isn't that a bit over the top? I don't see this in other wards." Bella took a few bites of her food, then remembered something. "Right! You haven't told me about your boyfriend. What does he do for a living? He sure seems loaded. I asked around about the price for a VIP room, and it's 1,000 dollars just for the bed per day! You better spill the beans. Don't try to keep me in the dark."

"It's 1,000 dollars a day for this place?!"

This was the first time Dorothy heard the price for a VIP room. She knew it would be expensive. She thought it would be around a hundred or two, but she hadn't expected it to be this much.

Bella became even more worried after seeing her daughter’s surprised expression.

"What's this guy's game? Why is he spending money on you but not telling you why?" She thought hard, then panicked. "This guy... he's not after your organs, is he?!"
