The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Chapter 497

The room spun so fast she couldn’t even make out the ceiling tiles of the hospital room anymore. The harsh lights blurred into triplicates, then quintuplets, before scattering like countless twinkling stars.

“Could you… maybe go a bit… faster…” she gasped out..

“No, no, no…” she protested weakly.

“Oh, you’re afraid I’ll finish too quickly? Don’t worry, I’ve got time.”

“No, no, no…”

Everett took pleasure in seeing her flushed and breathless, too worn out to say anything but shake her head.
