The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 6

"Karen, it's urgent. Super urgent! Can you somehow get Mr. Lopez's phone number?"

Dorothy had deleted Everett's contact. She even left the online group they shared, so the only person she could turn to now was Karen.

The voice on the other side was clearly still groggy from sleep. "Who?!"

"Everett."

"If you're sleepwalking, go back to sleep."

"I don't have time to explain. It's really urgent!"

The project partner's supervisor had signed the contract and left the country. She couldn't possibly ask him to return just to sign another contract with her.

Karen sensed her seriousness, sat up in bed, and said, "I can't get his number, but you can go find him in his room, right?"

Right!

Dorothy quickly hung up the phone, threw on a random piece of clothing, and ran towards the hotel's presidential suite.

However, when she got to that floor, she was stopped right out of the elevator by the CEO's secretary.

"Hello, I need to see Mr. Lopez."

The secretary looked her up and down and asked sternly, "Do you have an appointment?"

"No."

The secretary was straightforward. "Then please leave."

"Can't you bend the rules a bit? Just pass a message for me. Tell him Dorothy urgently needs to see him; he'll definitely want to see me."

But the secretary completely ignored her plea.

Just as Dorothy was feeling defeated, a deep voice came from the suite.
