The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Chapter 465

“I might not be fond of that Dorothy, but I be damned if I let you tum the Lopez family upside down!”

Jonathan’s nerves were rattled by the recent debacle involving Heather. In the past, he had been reluctant to interfere, partly out of consideration for his wife’s health and sheer laziness when it came to domestic squabbles.

Had he known that Amanda had spoiled Heather to such an extent, allowing her to become so unhinged that she even harmed their son, he would have stepped in to set things right.

Amanda, knowing she was at fault, offered a meek explanation, “Look at our friends around here. Their daughters–in–law and sons–in–law come from matching social backgrounds. I just wanted to find someone for Everett who’s well–educated, competent, and could help him in his career. Isn’t that in his best interest?”

“Heather might be capable, but she’s cold–hearted and ruthless. She’d stop at nothing! That’s just unacceptable.”

“But honey, think back to before Dorothy came into the picture. Everett and Heather were so good together! At work, Heather supported him tirelessly, and you can’t deny that. And personally, they were such good friends, often seen dining out with Jeffrey. There were no issues whatsoever! Dorothy is where it all went wrong.”
