The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Dorothy always admired Jeffrey and Karen's go-getter attitude.

Amid the whirlwind of wedding preparations, they had even managed to squeeze in a vacation plan! That must be one of the perks of being flush with cash, she mused.

Jeffrey had even gone so far as to bypass Dorothy and give Austin a heads-up about taking a week off.

Austin just couldn’t object. He'd have to bite the bullet and grant the vacation even if it lasted a month, let alone a week's off.
