The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Quincy's mention of compensation for Dorothy flew under everyone's radar.

But then, Dorothy actually got a call from her.

"What the hell do you want, Dorothy? Spill it all now and then stay the hell away from Mr. Lopez, forever!" Quincy's tone was that of an elite socialite dealing with her husband's affair – authoritative and dismissive.

No surprise there, considering she's a Caldwell. And it's clear why Jonathan Lopez fell for her.

"I want shares in the Lopez Corporation. Can you afford that?"

"And what right do you have to the Lopez Corporation's shares, Ms. Sanchez? Let me remind you, you're divorced from Mr. Lopez. You're an ex now. We're willing to give you a settlement, and you should be grateful for that."

The way she used "we" was rather telling.
