The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 486

"So you're telling me those bite marks are from another woman?"

Dorothy frowned, fighting the urge to roll her eyes at him. "Don't even try to spin a yarn about it being a guy's doing. I'm not buying that tale."

"No, they really were from a woman." Everett teased, watching her cheeks flush with anger, a smirk creeping up his face.

Her jealousy was a dead giveaway that she had feelings for him!

Seeing Dorothy like this made Everett happier than anything else.

"And you say you haven’t been dating anyone else?" Dorothy's eyes widened like a wife interrogating her husband, almost ready to jump out of her wheelchair. "She must have been pretty close to leave a bite on your shoulder. You obviously slept with her!"

Everett nodded, "You're spot on. Not just once, but quite a few times. She was drunk that night, and I intended just to escort her to her hotel room. But then she got handsy and wouldn't let go of me!"

Dorothy covered her ears and turned away, "Spare me the sordid details! So she touched you and you just surrendered? Where have your morality gone to?"

"Gone when it came to her. I found it hard to stand my ground." Everett saw she was genuinely upset, and knew it was time to reveal the truth before she actually took off and he couldn't chase after her. "Didn't it ever occur to you that this woman might be you?"

"How could I..."

Dorothy stopped before finishing the sentence, frozen.

"Verity Holdings Limited collapsed overnight. Did you think about who might have had a hand in that?"

She was still trying to make sense of it all.

She remembered that Lane suddenly showed up in Havenbrook City, and she had asked him about Verity Holdings Limited. Lane claimed it was him behind the company's collapse!

"So you were in Havenbrook City the night I got drunk?"

"How else would the bite marks be there?"
