The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 751

Dorothy couldn't shake the feeling that something was off.

But she knew Karen still had a soft spot for Jeffrey, and now with a baby on the way, a reconciliation seemed normal.

After all, Karen was safe with Jeffrey.

"Mmm," Dorothy pondered for a moment before advising, "Jeffrey, you better have squared things away with your ex. Karen's pretty sensitive, and you know how tough it was for her to take that first step towards you."

"I get it! Don't worry. I'll tie up all loose ends with Paige."

Dorothy furrowed her brows.

She had a nagging suspicion about Jeffrey's words—they had a hint of malice, even though he was smiling as he said them.

"Karen's pregnant; take extra care of her, especially with her diet. She's been sleeping a lot lately, eating less because of it. Keep an eye on that."

"Yeah, I'll get the best nutritionist for her! She's carrying my child; how could I neglect her?"

That was reassuring.

Dorothy could see just how well Jeffrey treated Karen. She let out a sigh of relief.

Her own nerves had been frayed lately, what with Karen's breakup and the threat of getting rid of the baby. Now that the couple was back together, it was like a weight had been lifted.

"Just don't fight again. Be patient with her; women can be a bit emotionally unpredictable during pregnancy."

"As if I'd dare. I'm just grateful she's back with me! And Dorothy, thanks for taking Karen downstairs yesterday."

"Don’t mention it. I just thought you two should talk things through before making a decision about the baby."

Dorothy didn't probe any further about Everett's whereabouts and hung up the phone.

She had just checked out of her hotel room to return to her apartment when she received a call from a law firm.

"Hello, is this Dorothy Sanchez? This is West Legal Services."
