The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 60

"Uh, okay..." David finally sensed something was off. He looked at Dorothy, then at Everett, "You two…"

"I work at his company!" Dorothy didn't wait for Everett to speak. She blurted out before him.

"Oh, I see!" David felt a sense of relief, blatantly eyeing Dorothy.

She had always been beautiful.

Back in middle school, even when she was dressed in rags, with her hair tied up with a frayed hairband, it couldn't hide her delicate features. Especially at that time when she was dressed neatly, with her long algae-like hair cascading over her shoulders, her radiant eyes still pure, her petite and delicate nose, her features could have been the standard for plastic surgery hospitals.

Seeing that he was about to say something to Dorothy, Everett subtly pulled her back a step before him.

"Let's catch up another day. We're busy today."

"Oh! Then you guys carry on! We can catch up at the reunion."

Being a man, David could sense Everett's detached politeness, so he didn't insist on adding Dorothy's contact right away.

He figured once she was added to the group, he could add her too.

As Everett and Dorothy entered the private room, some of the ordered dishes were already served.

Kevin had already saved the head seat for his boss and left the seat next to it empty.

So, Dorothy had no choice but to sit next to him casually.

"Mr. Lopez, regarding our subsidiary's acquisition of Joy Group's three hundred million in bad assets, we have chosen their Joy Dairy Company as our debt-to-equity target. The contract part has been handed over to Ms. Heather."

Kevin was a workaholic. He seized every opportunity to report on work since Everett was usually too busy.

"Hmm, she will know how to leave a way out for the company." Everett murmured.

His confident tone and casual attitude showed his trust in Heather.

He never let the Lopez Corporation down.

After dinner, Dorothy went back to the hotel and started refining Kenneth's project. It wasn't until Everett finished his meeting in the living room that she put down her keyboard.

"Oh, you haven't added me to the class group yet."

She suddenly remembered that and thought Everett had forgotten.

However, his hands paused unbuttoning his shirt, "Why do you want to join?"

Dorothy didn’t say anything.

"You're quite the flirt, aren't you?" He casually changed into his robe and walked over to her, "You don't need another David. He's not good enough."

To be his love rival, David was far from qualified.
