The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 67

"If it's a work injury, the company has a specific department for that.”

He didn't need to worry his pretty little head about it.

Everett's response was smooth as silk, his expression as casual as if he was talking about the weather.

If it wasn't for the tattoo, and the passcode to his house, it was difficult to tell whether he really gave a damn about Heather.

"But aren't you guys... friends?"

"So, you plan to visit her with me?"

Dorothy shook her head, "I've been quite swamped lately."

"Busy with that project from a guy named Kenneth?" Everett's hand, holding a cup of milk, paused as he looked at her.

"Not entirely busy with just that. I'm also working on the Social Networking Service project with Kevin."

She didn't seem guilty at all, even under Everett's gaze.

"Mhm, keep up the good work."

Then he didn't say anything more. After they finished breakfast, they both went to work.

...

In the hospital, Heather, who just had an acute appendicitis surgery, was slowly waking up.

Her vision was a bit blurry when she saw a man's shadow in front of her!

"Everett..."

Hearing her voice, the man turned around.

It was Jeffrey.

"You finally decided to open your eyes! If you didn’t wake up, I was about to call the doctor!"

Not seeing the man she loved, Heather slowly closed her eyes and moistened her dry lips.
