The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Chapter 417
Dropping a bombshell like that, Everett turned on his heel and left.
The rest of the work assignments were to be handled by the head of the HR department.
Dorothy hadn’t expected Everett to call her out by name in public. Back when they were still married, he had never made such a
display at the office. At most, he would wait for her after hours to head home together.
Today, he had marched into the waiting room and said her name aloud.
Wasn’t that the same as announcing to everyone at East Star Enterprises that they shared an extraordinary connection? Had he
lost his mind?
“Mr. Lopez... he just said your name, didn’t he?”
Dorothy was stunned, and Austin was even more bewildered, almost thought it was an illusion.
“It seemed like it...”
“Do you know him?” Austin’s eyes widened in surprise.
“We went to the same middle school! Don’t read too much into it, okay? I’ll explain when I get back.”
With that, Dorothy hurriedly got up and left the waiting room because it was too complicated to explain her relationship with
Everett right now, especially not knowing what his intentions were with such a display.
It had been so long since she left the Lopez Corporation that Dorothy was surprised she still remembered the way to the CEO’s
office.
Her steps were hesitant; she didn’t want to face Everett alone and was seriously considering turning around and running away.
She had reached the executive floor and was still debating the feasibility of escaping when she didn’t want to step out of the
elevator.
“Ms. Sanchez, there you are!”
Before she could make up her mind, Kevin had already spotted her.

So much for the plan.
Dorothy could only manage a strained smile, then hurried out of the elevator, pulling Kevin aside and whispering, “Did you tell
him about me coming over the night he got drunk?”
“No way, I promised you I wouldn’t tell and I meant it.”
“Then what’s up with Everett?”
His aggressive takeover of East Star Enterprises, announcing her name in front of a crowd... None of it was like Everett! Kevin
shrugged helplessly and said, “I have no idea! When Mr. Lopez explained to the shareholders about the acquisition, he just said
he did it because he wanted to, and that was that.”
Dorothy was confused.
It couldn’t be that in these four years, Everett hadn’t become more composed and restrained, but instead had grown childish and
capricious, right?
Honestly, with this series of actions, Dorothy was starting to wonder if Everett was possessed by Jeffrey!
“Ms. Sanchez, you’re overthinking it. Mr. Lopez has his reasons for what he does.”
“But my situation is different! You know my history with him, and now that Everett has a girlfriend, it’s going to be awkward for me
at the Lopez Corporation!” She couldn’t belleve Everett hadn’t thought of that!
With a forced smile, Kevin asked, “What if... what if Mr. Lopez doesn’t have a new girlfriend at all?”
“That can’t be, he does.” Dorothy had seen the bite marks on Everett’s body herself.
And not just one, but several!
Those were clearly evidence of their intimate moments.
“Did Mr. Lopez tell you that himself?”
“No,” but she had seen it with her own eyes.
“Then rumors are even less reliable!”

Dorothy frowned, unable to bring up the bite marks.
“Anyway, he definitely has someone. They’re living together! Kevin, can you think of a way to transfer me out of the Lopez
Corporation?”
Before Kevin could reply, Everett’s voice suddenly boomed from above her.
“He can’t do that”
