The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 944

From the moment the doctor announced the baby's arrival, Dorothy’s eyes were brimming with tears. Everett gently wiped them away several times before finally warning her that if she didn’t stop crying, he’d take her home. That seemed to do the trick, at least for the moment.

Jeffrey and Karen exchanged a flurry of words until the doctor came to check on her. Only then did Jeffrey step away from the bedside, allowing Dorothy to lean in.

“Karen, you’re such a trooper! Congratulations, you’re officially a trio now.” she said.

“Yeah… childbirth is brutal, Dorothy… I don’t think I can go through this again…”

Dorothy offered a wry smile, “Jeffrey just said the same thing.”

“That’s right! Once all this is over, I’m getting a vasectomy!” Jeffrey chimed in, only to receive a sharp look from Karen.

There he goes again, speaking his mind with elders around.

Their conversation continued, with Kenneth standing quietly in a corner of the room and watching the family’s joyful reunion.

Suddenly, he felt someone approaching him.

Looking up, he saw Everett.

“Were you the one with Dorothy when she went into the delivery room?” he asked.

“Yes,” Kenneth nodded, his response void of any boastfulness, simply answering Everett’s direct question.

“It was quite critical then, wasn’t it?”

“Dorothy’s situation was far more dire.” Kenneth’s eyes narrowed slightly as he recalled the tense moments, “The doctor had to come out to call the family several times, issuing multiple critical condition notices. I could see the blood on the doctor’s clothes. That was Dorothy’s blood.”

The fear he experienced then was indescribable. He wanted to collapse just like Jeffrey did moments ago. But he couldn’t afford to.
