The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Quincy's mind was stuck on repeat, echoing only one phrase: "Having a baby!"

Everett wanted to have a baby with him?

His solution was to start a family together, to bring a new member into the Lopez clan!

"You see, I told you it might seem unfair to you, and yet you insisted I explain. Do you find it a bit presumptuous?" Everett added another layer of pressure when he noticed Quincy hadn't immediately agreed. "No, not at all! It's just... it feels so sudden."

"Don't worry about it. Pretend I never mentioned it," Everett took a pause, clearing his throat, "As for the arrangement, I'll think of something else. There's always a way. I'm not too keen on my dad's constant nagging either."

The thought of Everett reconsidering and, as a result, missing out on the chance to have his baby made Quincy uneasy.

She quickly said, "My dad's been on my case about it too, as you know. They've always seen me more as a daughter, not really beneficial to the Caldwell legacy. I've struggled with setting boundaries with them, so marrying into the Lopez family seemed like a way to honor their upbringing. And... I truly do have feelings for you."

Upon hearing this, Everett's brows furrowed, a sign of his discomfort.

Luckily, they weren't face-to-face, or else...

He'd surely be caught looking disapproving.
