The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

"Why are you doing this to yourself, locking up in the office?"

"Just do as I say."

Everett knew the poison he'd ingested would cause hallucinations for a while.

Dorothy had been through the same ordeal.

Her depression, which had been mild, spiraled into severe suicidal thoughts because of the toxin-induced hallucinations. They made her insomniac, anxious, and restless.

Everett feared the hallucinations too.

He had no idea what he might do under their influence!

So he instructed Kevin to lock the office door, barring anyone from entering or seeing him, hoping to weather the initial storm. He wanted to gauge the drug's effects and regain control.

Kevin couldn't refuse Mr. Lopez, but...

He was seriously worried about him.

After leaving the office, Kevin did lock it as Mr. Lopez had asked, but his concern led him to seek help from one person-

Dorothy.
