The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 566

Everett couldn't promise anything with certainty, especially when it came to Jeffrey.

Jeffrey was known to be a playboy, who never took things seriously, for all these years. Everett was genuinely surprised at the amount of attention he was paying to Karen.

It seemed like Karen was the only thing that could make Jeffrey hit the pause button on his usual antics and show some real interest.

But as for how long that interest might last, well, that was anyone's guess.

Jeffrey himself was still a bit of a kid at heart, and Karen was no different. Even if they did get together, there was no guarantee it would last all the way to an "I do."

Dorothy sent Karen a message on WhatsApp.

[Sounds like he might be just your type. Give it a shot. Whether it works out or not, you won't know until you spend some time together. Can't just fall for a pretty face, right?]

Karen replied with a bashful emoji.

[Guess who might have a boyfriend soon! LOL! My dad finally did something right and set me up with a real catch! Tall, handsome, just got back from starting a business abroad. He's got a house and a car in Eldorria City and earns over one hundred thousand dollars a year.]

[That does sound impressive.]

Karen bombarded her with a slew of 'LOL's. [The best part about blind dates set up by your parents is everything's out in the open! They've even checked out his house, car, and salary for me! But... I'm kinda worried he might not be into me.]

Her job wasn't exactly stable, and it wasn't high-paying either. She was an only child, so eventually, her parents' money would be hers, but it wasn't a lot.

And then there was her looks—pretty average.

Karen sent a sighing emoji, [Dorothy, if only I had your face, I'd totally sweep him off his feet!]

Dorothy glanced at Everett reflexively when she read that.

Thank goodness he didn't see that message. He'd have gotten jealous for sure.

He had been a bit too possessive lately...

[I think you're great as you are, no need to put yourself down.]

[OK! I'm gonna get ready then. Take a shower and maybe hit the mall for a new outfit. Dad's in a hurry and wants me to meet the guy tonight. Everything's all set so I better spruce myself up.]
