The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

"Kevin shook his head urgently. "Just, don't tell Mr. Turner, okay?"

"Oh fine, I'll just spill it to his wife, then."

Dorothy had genuinely wanted to stand up for her friend Karen, to put in a good word for her.

"Though, she probably won't scold you. She might actually grill Jeffrey seriously, asking if there's anything going on between him and Everett."

Their conversation filled the car ride, and soon, they were back at Bay Residence.

Standing at the doorstep once more, Dorothy couldn't help but reflect.
