The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

"You had a chance, Mr. Lopez was head over heels for you! But you just had to push it until things got ugly, didn't you? Until Mr. Lopez lost his mother before you decided enough was enough!" In Quincy's eyes, this was the direct cause of their relationship's downfall.

Dorothy naturally followed her lead, "But I regret it, and he still won't forgive me!"

"Opportunities come once in a lifetime, and Mr. Lopez, such a catch, do you think he'd wait forever?"

She had to get rid of her, and fast.
