The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 715

"Everett, have you lost your mind?" Heather's voice thundered through the air, her disbelief palpable.

Everett, however, simply stepped back, an unreadable calm washing over his features.

"Dorothy, I kept my promise to you. I did everything I said I would."

His hopes hadn't been met, but he was letting go.

Without another word, Everett turned on his heel and climbed back into his car, driving away without a moment's hesitation.

Dorothy watched the car until Heather's loud, mocking laughter echoed from within.

"Oh Everett, my whole life's been wrecked because of you, and to think you too have someone you can't have! How perfect, how just, what sweet karma! I thought I was the only one going mad, but you- you're even crazier than I am!"

A dark shadow of hatred flickered in Dorothy’s eyes as she turned her face away.

"Heather, Everett left you in my hands, along with all the video evidence. This time, you're not escaping the consequences!"

Heather sneered. "What can you do with some videos? I might as well tell you, I gave them to you on purpose! Let’s see if they help you overturn that old lady’s case, if you can use them to topple the might of the Lopez Corporation!"

"So, your plan was to make the videos disappear, right?"

Heather's expression faltered. "How did you..."

"Everett gave me a copy, one that he had secured."

Her legs went weak, and she had to clutch the wrought iron railing to keep upright. "Impossible, Everett would never do that! The mastermind is his mother, his own flesh and blood! He must know this is murder, a capital offense!"
