The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 986

"She did that, nearly causing Abigail and Langston to never come into this world. I won’t take the kids to see her." Everett said.

Seeing Everett's firm stance, Dorothy had said all there was to say. The rest was up to him.

"Then you better go. I'll be here waiting for you. Call me if anything comes up."

"Alright."

Everett's brows, previously furrowed like a deep river, finally smoothed out. After all, being caught in the middle was uncomfortable for anyone.

He didn’t want Dorothy to back down for his sake, nor could he truly ignore his mother’s critical condition.

...

As Everett had anticipated, Amanda was indeed hospitalized. The situation was grim.

When he arrived at the hospital, Jonathan was sitting outside the emergency room, his usually upright posture now slumped.

Given Bella's lawsuit, he hadn't had a proper rest in days. In the glitzy, high society they lived in, Jonathan's level of care for his wife was rare.

Most couples at this point would wish the other dead sooner, just so the assets wouldn’t be split.

Hearing footsteps, Jonathan turned and saw Everett. He immediately stood up, his expression shifting from surprise to displeasure in an instant.

"You're just getting here? Did Dorothy not let you come?"

Hearing his father attack Dorothy right off the bat, Everett frowned, "She's not like that."

"You're telling me you didn't answer any of my calls because it wasn't her doing?" Jonathan scoffed, though he knew this wasn't the time to argue with his son, he couldn't hold back his displeasure.
