The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Chapter 467
Dorothy didn’t hesitate for a second before hanging up and blocking the number.
She saw no reason to keep in touch with someone who had betrayed her
Whether he wanted to explain or shirk responsibility she had no interest in hearing it
She hailed a cab and rushed to the address on her phene, only to discover that it was the private hospital owned by the wealthy
Lopez family. The prospect of even getting through the front gate to see Everett was hard, let alone actually seeing him
As Dorothy saw a car rolling out of the driveway, she quickly maneuvered her wheelcha to block its path, forcing the driver to
slam on the brakes just shy of hitting her.
“Who are you?” asked the man stepping out of the vehicle, a doctor by the looks of his white coat. He was visibly shocked to see
Dorothy blocking his way.
“I need to see Everett Can you get me in?” she asked desperately.
“You want to see Mr. Lopez?” He raised an eyebrow, sizing up Dorothy skeptically before flaily denying her request. “I can’t help
you. This is a private hospital. Only Mr. Lopez himself can authorize your entry
As he moved to leave. Dorothy stubbornly positiered her wheelchair in front of the car, signaling she wouldn’t budge.
The doctor sighed, getting out of the car again. Look, I’m bound by regulations. Theres nothing I can do”
“Then can you at least tell me how Everett is doing?s he... awake?”
“I can’t disclose the! he exclaimed, clearly anxious about revealing any information to a stranger who could potentially cause
trouble for the Lopez family.
Dorothy quickly explained “Tim Everetts... ewle. He was injured trying to sove me! You don’t have to let me in: I just want to
know how he’is‘
Ex–wife? The doctor had never heard about their young master being married before. ‘Miss, are you making things up? Mr.
Lopez’s only got a girlfriend named Heather, Never heard of any ex–wife.”

Dorothy knew that the Lopez family and the circle wouldn’t be aware of her, Amanda would never have mentioned her to anyone.
For a prestigious family like the Loperes, marrying a commoner would be gossip fudde
She had always been aware of the vast gulf between herself and Everett, it was never just a simple matter of a CFO and his
assistant. “Just go, please. Dont make this harder for me” the doctor pleaded
“Can you at least tell me if he’s alive? Dorothy persisted, desperate for any information.
She had chased him all the way here without thinking of the outcomes, Even if the Lopez family decided to chase her off, she
wouldn’t leave = not without trying.
“Of course Mr. Lopez is alive!” he blurted out before covering his mouth in shock. “I didn’t say anything!”
Knowing that Everett was still alive provided Dorothy with a small sense of relief.
She didn’t mean to cause trouble for the doctor “Don’t worry I won’t tell anyone. It’s not like we know each other.”
Dorothy moved her wheelchair aside, watching as his car drove all, a faint smile finally gracing her face.
He was alive. That was all that mattered.
Suddenly, Dorothy heard someone calling with unmistakable hosty.
“Dorothy? What are you doing here?”
“I came to sey Everelt”
her name. She spun around to find Amanda standing at the hospital entrance, glaring at her
“And what do you think you an, trying to see my son?‘ Amanda’s voice was shall, dripping with scom. “I haven’t even settled the
score with you, and here you are, showing up on your own accord! Well, Dorothy, you’ve really asked for it now
