The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1328
Kenneth's stubbornness in matters of the heart was no less intense than Everett's.
Otherwise, they wouldn't find themselves in this mess today.
Unable to contain himself any longer, Everett strode forward, pulling Dorothy into his arms protectively.
"It doesn't hurt."
Dorothy didn't need to look up to know Everett had come for her.
This man, he could never stand to see her in the slightest bit of pain.
"Your face is all flushed, and you're telling me it doesn't hurt?"
"It's just a bit red, nothing compared to losing a life like Kenneth did."
Everett disliked her pessimistic tone.
Dorothy had been battling depression, and it was unpredictable when she might spiral again.
"Don't you realize why Kenneth died?"
"…"
"If he saw you now, wallowing in sadness and not valuing the life he sacrificed his own for, wouldn't his death be in vain?"
Dorothy's lips quivered, unable to form words.
"You can grieve, but there's a limit."
After a moment, she slowly nodded.
"Yeah."
She couldn't let Kenneth's sacrifice be for nothing.
...
Kenneth's ashes were laid to rest next to Bella's in adjoining plots.
Dorothy had thought about it but hesitated because of Everett. To her surprise, it was he who suggested it first.
Not only that, but Everett went as far as to purchase the entire hillside, ensuring they could rest undisturbed.
"It was Ephraim."
"Okay." Everett sat by the bed, his slender hands carefully peeling an apple for Dorothy. "Is it about Heather Garcia's case?"
"Yeah, the execution's been approved, set for early next month."
Everett showed no reaction, as if it didn't concern him at all.
It was Dorothy who sighed softly, "Maxton Sanchez must know by now."
"Don't worry, as long as you don't want to see them, none of these people will get the chance to trouble you."
How could he let others hurt the person he couldn't bear to scold?
"I don't want to see him."
On this matter, Dorothy harbored no sentimentality or softness.
That man had caused her mother a lifetime of regret and plunged Heather and her daughter into despair. Seeing him would be pointless.

Why didn't Jeffrey call Everett from the office? Lock his door instruct security to not let anyone in and speak to Everett on the phone?
