The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 652

It would not be long before her dear friend would find herself at odds with the Lopez Corporation.

The very thought of working there was awkward enough to churn her stomach.

Right on cue, Dorothy's call came through, breaking the tension. They quickly set a lunch date.

After hanging up, Karen faced Jeffrey, who was still wearing a look of utter confusion.

"I just want some time to find myself, not to get a job at the Lopez Corporation by batting my eyelashes," Karen stated firmly.

"Excuses, all excuses!" Jeffrey retorted.

"Then why even ask?" She shot back.

Jeffrey was taken aback, speechless for a moment.

Karen tossed him his car keys and said, "Let's go. Dorothy and the others are heading to the diner."

After their meal, Everett and Dorothy planned to head back to Swevia Country.

First, Everett needed rest to heal, and a check-up from Dr. Quincy was in order. Second, Dorothy had decided that when it was time to leave, she would depart directly from Swevia Country.

She could not bear the thought of another goodbye with Everett in Eldorria City.

Unbeknownst to Everett, their friend Kevin had already booked their flights, including Abigail and Langston's.

The night before their departure, Everett received a call from Jonathan.

"I've seen the children's names—Abigail Sanchez, Langston Sanchez? What a mess! Change their names immediately! They carry the Lopez blood. How can they have the Sanchez surname?"

"Why can't Dorothy's children have her surname?" Everett countered calmly.
