The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 989
When it's your time, there's no coming back. No do-overs, even if your heart aches with regret.
"Alright," Everett replied, his tone subdued, clearly not in the mood for conversation.
Dorothy didn't press him further. After hanging up, she texted Kevin, asking him to drop off some extra clothes for Everett at the hospital. The emergency room's chill could seep into your bones, necessitating layers more than usual.
...
Everett didn't come home that night.
Dorothy ended up crashing on the couch until the early hours.
The next morning, she was jolted awake by the doorbell - Kevin had come to take Abigail and Langston to school.
Without Everett, her nights were restless, sleep only claiming her in the wee hours.
"Thanks for this, Kevin," she said as she handed over the kids.
"No problem at all. I'm here to assist Mr. Lopez in any way I can."
"By the way, I'm headed to a due diligence meeting this morning, so I won't be back at the office. Call me if you need anything! And... if there's any news from Everett at the hospital, could you let me know?" Dorothy knew it was a big ask for Kevin, but reaching out to Everett directly might make him overthink things. She just wanted to stay informed, nothing more.
Kevin, sharp as ever, caught on immediately and agreed to keep her posted.
"Don't worry, Mr. Lopez will be fine! When I dropped off the clothes yesterday, and he knew it was you who sent them, he even cracked a smile!"
Seems like Dorothy's the only one who can lift Everett's spirits.
Normally, Dorothy would greet her warmly. After all, Quincy had saved Everett's life, not once but twice, and one of those times, it was Dorothy's fault he was in danger!
But...
Everett had made it clear he wanted Dorothy to keep her distance from Quincy, so she couldn't help but feel wary.
"Dr. Quincy, what brings you here?"
"Just borrowing some pharmaceutical books from a friend who lives nearby!" Quincy replied with a smile.
Dorothy's gaze drifted to a man standing behind Quincy, prompting Quincy to follow her gaze and chuckle. "Oh, don't get the wrong idea. He's not my boyfriend. He's my bodyguard, hired by Mr. Lopez—"

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? Or send him a text giving him a quick summary of what's up and that he's on his way over. That way when he runs into Heather on his way out he informs her Everett already knows....
