The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Chapter 426
Everett’s voice camed a hint of defeat, a stark contrast to his usual assertive demeanor. Seeing him this way. Langston couldn’t
help but feel a pang of discomfort. After a moment’s thought, he reached out his small hand and gently wrapped his fingers
around his.
Everett suddenly looked up, locking eyes with him
What did this gesture mean? It was an acknowledgment of the words he had just said.
As Everett began to speak, his throat tightened, his voice quivering with emotion. “She... she’s really your mom, isn’t she?”
Langston instinctively wanted to feign ignorance, but after spending these past days together, he knew all too well that his so
called acting skills were no match for Everett’s sharp perception. The look of loss in Everett’s eyes, the sorrow in his words–they
didn’t seem feigned.
So after a few seconds of contemplation, Langston gave up the charade “Just... promise me you won’t tell her I said anything.”
Everett froze, even though he had suspected Dorothy all along, the confirmation of the truth left him speechless with shock.
Dorothy had a child with him. No, not just one!
“You have a sister too, night? Is she my child as well?”
Langston nodded vigorously. “Of course! Mom doesn’t have a boyfriend! It’s just that my sister doesn’t look as much like you”
“And Kenneth?”
“Kenneth is just a friend of Mom’s. They hardly ever meet, blurted Langston, unaware of the gravity of his wonds. Having said it
all, he quickly added, “You have to promise me, you absolutely cannot let my mom know that I told you! She would be finous!”
Langston remembered his mother’s repeated warnings to keep this secret
Seeing Everett still in a state of shock, Langston gave him a nudge. “Don’t rat me out You figured this out on your own, not from
me! Everett covered his heart with his hand, slowly nodding.
“Okay, I won’t tell.”

“Jeez, when did I get on your side? Langston muttered, puzzled, but he seized the opportunity to make a request. “I helped you
out today, so you gotta teach me virtual programming tonight! I want to know how you set up the firewall for the Lopez
Corporation!”
“Alright... alright... I teach you Everett agreed, nodding slightly, trying to maintain composure in front of his son.
But the hand that remained over his heart betrayed his current state of excitement, disbelief, and overwhelming shock.
It had been so long since he had felt this way, his mind a complete blank.
Everett even had to pull over to the side of the road, his trembling hands unable to control the steering wheel any longer.
It was true. His suspicions were confirmed
Dorothy, so adamant about the divorce, had given birth to two children after they parted ways!
She certainly didn’t love Kenneth. She had lied to him!
But why?
Why did she make that choice?
Back then, he had truly believed Dorothy wanted to be with Kenneth. He agreed to the divorce simply to make her happy.
But now, it seemed the story of their past was far more complicated than a simple love triangle.
It took him a while to compose himself before he called Kevin, “Look into the real reason behind Dorothy’s mother’s death, and
focus on Heather”
